Thanks so much for posting this great song! It reminded me of my "official first date" with the young lady who has been my wife for 43 years, back in 1966. During the concert, somebody in the back of the auditorium kept yelling out "Ronnie! Ronnie! Ronnie!" Finally, Frankie Valli got a little irritated and shot back, "He's not with us anymore!" :-) Thanks for the great memories.
@FiteNoMore dude when your 75 as frankie is you have already been dead at least 7 years.why do you insult a musical legend? i think you may have vice grip but no balls! stick that in your crack pipe and smoke it!
anybody understand why rolling stone still refuses to acknowledge these guys. is it that they had no drug overdoses, no spousal battering,no public outbursts by band members. cant be lack of arrest records,ie devito and massi.or is rolling stone what i think it is, a left wing bunch of bleeding heart commie liberals? thats the beat i could come up with!
man i remeber this song and the four seasons my best friend gril name was ronnie and she had a yellow 1966 chevelle with a 396 and a four on the floor . iwas going out with her friend marcy and what times we had in that car to bad my friend did not know how to drive a stick but when they wanted the back seat i did the driveing what times mrbats38
My girlfriends boy friend was "Ronnie". He had a 61 convertable and we would ride around it. This song came on the radio. Good memories for me but not them.
ah, yes...ronnie (veronica) was my heartthrob in the 7th grade back in 1963. she, of course, hardly knew i existed. still, i'll never forget her enchanting eyes, chestnut hair, substantial rack, and striking smile. the stupid cow...i wonder what she looks like now, lol. wonderful memory, nonetheless. thanks!
thank you, garin4x4 for this Forgotten Hit by the seasons.Dont quite understand why thay is? the sound of the song indicates to me that nick massi had a huge influence on the music as well as the vocal arangements.
I just fell in love with Ronnie all over again! Thanks for posting this gem!! With all the great Four Seasons hits, this one seems to get lost in the crowd.
Had a boy in my class in high school....his name was Ronnie....he pulled my long red hair.....kinda turned me on....lol...just a crush......thanks for posting this song.
Absolute true talent is what the original Four Seasons were. The fantastic harmonies and songs written by them with Bob Crewe and the great productions
made them the main competetors of The Beatles. I was, am and always will be a fan.
Ronnie Siegel from Midwood HS in Brooklyn NY 1963 -- the absolutely most beautiful girl in the world --- when she came to manhattan beach with her hair all done up and wearing a bikini -- well sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet
Frankie Valli and the 4 Seasons were such a fabulous group....and Frankie Valli had a beautiful voice. I don't think they ever got the attention they should have. In my opinion they were the best group of all time. Thanks for the memories, Frankie.
Ronnie, Candy Girl, Marlena, Walk LIke A Man, Dawn and all the rest of the songs that were terrific. As they used to say on CKLW, "and the hits just keep on coming" and they did with the Four Seasons. Thanks for the great posting.
@newhotman1001 If you're at all interested in hearing any of those songs 'in formal dress', search any of them along with the keyword hollyridge. The lushest orchestral versions of these you will ever hear, by master composer, orchestrator, arranger Stu Phillips. For more, the first featured playlist on my channel is 114 songs by The Hollyridge Strings. My channel is a tribute to a century of pop music on 750 playlists, including lists for every year since 1900. chuck
The kids of today have NO IDEA,CLUELESS.
