Stan Vincent deserves a significant citation for this wonderful much recorded and performed song. The song should be designated a legend! I began to sing it back in 1969 in dedication to the children of Northern Ireland! I sing and perform "OOh Child" now for all the children of the world! We older ones need to ensure a better world now and for the future for our children! All Children!
@groovinwalrus ,.Yes I so agree “All the Children”! This song has such a universal message filled with “Love & Hope” for this and the generations to follow across all continents especially Africa, where children are dying on alarming levels from poverty & imagine in 2011, Hunger!!!
If the message is heard the impact can be huge, so I agree this is a great choice for Obama’s campaign for his next term!. Cheers!
This is a wonderful version of the Stan Vincent classic, "Ooh Ooh Child." Dee Dee Sharp's's version is one of the very best! It is an inspirational interpretation. I tried to contact the incoming Obama people to suggest Dee Dee Sharp's appearance at Obama's inaugaration singing this one!
I bought this album when in came out in 75 and played the hell out of it. The original mashed potato girl. Be sure to check out "Im not in love" on the other side. If Beyonce or Rhianna or even Madonna had to get up on stage and follow this performance they'd fall down and piss all over themselves. Great vocalizing from the 70s. And all with no studio tricks either!!.
Dee Dee is tremendous singing the hell out of Ooh Child & turns it inside out giving a performance that is both stunning & riveting...Bravo Dee Dee, you really sing it!!
