Donna Lynn - Navy Blue (Diane Renay made it popular) STEREO

[dobermanmom1]

I was kid when i would listen to this song on WLS chicago in the 60's. that was the time of the vietnam war and i grew up, got married and one of my sons joined the marines, and went to iraq and we were "blue" but thank God he came home safe

[IRememberTheOldDays]

I prefer this version I think

[yokkohamada1]

Nice Song!!

Thanks.

[is2daytuesday]

I met her (years later) on an American/German feature film. Her son was a child actor and she was a hoot and and half! That lady has got to write her memoirs one of these days, for sure! Love the song. Thanks for posting!

[TheMustangsally75]

Kurt, if you are out there, I'm still here.

[druhbe1996]

I loved this song too when I was a young boy /I changed a line when singing it to say / "My Steady Girl Said 'Ship a World' and Joined The Navy" / SOMETIMES IT'S THE WOMEN WHO LEAVE US MEN 'Feelin Blue'

[TheMustangsally75]

@druhbe1996

My whole heart & soul go out to you young man. Hang in there, you WILL find the girl of your dreams some day!!!

[jojodot]

summertime cruising song, great stuff! thanks

[colindominy]

Col from Australia calling in here. If I recall it OK .. this version by Donna was the one which was a BIG hit here in Oz, in the early 60s. Dianne's version was unknown here in Oz, basically .. altho her "Please Don't Talk To The Lifeguard" WAS a smash hit here. RE this song .. Navy Blue .. I actually prefer Donna's sound .. in this particular instance.

[toadfan64]

Nice version

[SIGNALSTAT]

another great ed rambeau son.

[yokkohamada1]

Donna Lynn is very good!!

[alexalberto81]

Man, she sounds just like Diane Renay... Incredible!

[bobw45]

This is a very good remake of Diane Renay's version.

[rjsmth]

I like this version better than Diane Renay's.....Thanks for posting....

[1948yokosuka]

初めまして。D・リネイ「ネイビー・ブルー」ドナ・リーンさんの­曲、私のお気に入りに追加致したく宜しくお願い致します。196­0年前後良い曲沢山有りました。最近のポップス、正直付いて行け­なくなりました。お年のせいでしょうか？　UP有り難うございました。お元気で楽しい曲をYou Tubeに沢山UPして私達に聴かせて下さい。

Joey10469: Me too. USS Coral Sea CVA43 - Gulf of Tonkin, Brother. 1970.

[987m654e321]

A zillion years before my time but I needed a song to rib my bff who's just fallen for a navy boy. Yay!

[joey10469]

this was one of my favorite songs. Little did I know I'd be wearing "NAVY" Dress Blues....and My First Overseas Trip was to Japan.

[sallyjenn]

i love this song, i had a love , we broke up and he left for the navy, he was my first love, and has remained in my heart to this day.

[boofer69]

diane - i think i love you !!!

[crankenstein70]

i usually always prefer the original even if they're inferior...bob crewe produced the original and thats the one i like...

[doctorpoian]

Donna was my girlfriend in 1969, she had left the music industry by then, she had two albums as her credit, and earlier as a tween she appeared on Broadway. I always wonder what happened to her after all these years. There's still a twinkle in my heart for that girl, Donna Lynn Albano. Always in my heart.

[TheMustangsally75]

@doctorpoian

Love the story!!!!!  There is always a twinkle for something that might have been!!!!

[Carsonetric]

What a wonderful version indeed!

[thebeatles4ever11]

lol " Donna Lynn" "JAVA JONES/MY BOYFRIEND GOT A BEATLE HAIRCUT"

[VinDcator]

Very rare! Great! What ever happened to her?

[varigdc10]

@VinDcator How the world changed since then, I think you can find out even her phone number if you just Google.

[VinDcator]

@varigdc10 Would the REAL Donna Lynn please stand up? lol

[doctorpoian]

@VinDcator , Her name was Donna Lynn Albano, live on Hill Street, Bronx NY

[yokkohamada1]

I like your Donna Rynn.

From Japan.

[cwbydck]

I was in Navy bootcamp when this song came out.......I was in San Diego (co 192) and she was in Grand Rapids , Michigan......................

[wristpin001]

Gee I wonder why the blonde bimbo made this song popular?

[tayswiftfan92]

Aw my boyfriend is going into the navy. this song makes me sad but kinda cheers me up too.

[TheMustangsally75]

@tayswiftfan92

I hope you are young. My Steady boy Said Ship Ahoy back in the70's. You may still have chance. Missed the LOVE Of MY Life due to the mtimes!! Sucks to be me!!!

[tayswiftfan92]

@TheMustangsally75

I'm 18

[TheMustangsally75]

Churchbabe,

How old is Grandpa? Maybe I could help you out with some suggestions. What war was he in if any? Doesn't matter. Let Sally know.

[TheMustangsally75]

I also like Diane Renays version better. I will listen to either one though. Too many memories to to say yay or nay as long as it is available.

RIDESALLYRIDE!!!!

[TheMustangsally75]

Boy Oh Boy Did my Steady Boy Said Ship Ahoy And Joined The Navy Seals. That was back in the 1970's. Needless to say with me in MI and He on Coronado Island during training, without much contact because it was all highly confidential once all was said and done, we drifted apart. I am recently divorced and have always considered him the LOVE OF MY LIFE His picture with me is now on my fridge.

My x-husband burned all of our letters. That's Why I'm Blue Navy Blue. He Married 2 years ago!!!!

[jbyesterday]

@TheMustangsally75

If anyone qualifies to add a footnote to this song it's you. Keep your chin up !!

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

@TheMustangsally75

Whats blue navy blue ?

[TheMustangsally75]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME

That's part of the lyrics. Get it?

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

@TheMustangsally75

I mean is she singing about the US Navy or what ?

[TheMustangsally75]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME

My steady boy said ship ahoy and joined the Navy. Another part of the lyrics. Listen closely. She sings very clearly,easy to understand.

[icicicles]

@TheMustangsally75

Your X was an insecure imbecile.

If it had been me, I'd posted his pic over our headboard and reaped the benefits.

Keep your head up girl!

[shelly10538]

Very close, but I still wish the Diane Renay version was on here.
