I think Cher was really pretty when she was young, before she had anything done to her face or teeth. So she wasn't perfect, but she was still very pretty. I liked her voice better when she was younger, too.
yep, she certainly is and it cracks me up when people continue to mention her droplet of Native American blood, versus her Armenian last name and looks!
Yes she is half Armenian, her father was Armenian. But her mother is German mostly, with a tiny bit of Irish, and Native American. Cher's maternal grandma Linda had some Native blood, but not a lot.
I always liked Sonny and Cher and their tv show.Today, they would not make it on "America's Got Talent." If you think back to that (our) era, a lot of stars would not have progressed, think about it! Rod Stewart did not sing that great and some others also.............
thank you for posting this! it's a nice, simpler version from the souped-up Foxy Lady album one. Sonny wrote some of the most interesting songs for her.
Wow. I remember taping this song onto my little portable cassette player back when this show first aired. I had started to like Sonny and Cher just when they lost popularity the first time and was so thrilled to see her on a network show. I think they do 'All I Really Want to Do", but I'm not sure.
Also true, but that is a NEW version, not this one. This is the 1970 version. And this performance was NOT live by the way; they just play the studio recorded song.
I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure this was just a single and it wasn't released on a album. It came out in 1970 and the only two albums Cher had around that time was 3614 Jackson Highway and Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves, it wasn't on either one .
You are very right. It was released as a single in 1970, and should have been on a new album that was due to come out in 1970 on ATCO, but that ot cancelled. Please check out the limited edition cd-release of 3614 Jackson Highway from 2001, it has that entire "cancelled album" as bonustracks, including The First Time!
glen campbell (host, for you youngsters) had a summer variety show in 1968 then went full time 69-72. this was probably about 71, thats when Cher started off on her solo career
Don't know about she flerting with Glen Campbell but they would have had beautiful exotic children with her ethnic native american dark looks and his anglo blond looks.. great combination of genes..
It was strictly flirting in the studio to tick off Sonny whom Cher was spatting with at the time. Glen already had 3 kids with 2 different women by 1963. Anyway, Cher had a child with Allman who has similar, "blonde anglo" looks as you put it. The Cher/Glen flirtations were simply that. Glen was a major womanizer with children from a variety of different women.
@SS421982 No disrespect to Glen, as he's now going through a major health issue. Our past is what it is, but Glen was a major contributor to much of the sound of the 60's as a session player. Not to mention his own historic career as a solo artist.
So if this is 1969, she is 23 years old, which is about the same age as alot of the talentless people on American Idol. Sonny had enough experience in the business that he knew raw talent when he saw it. He was the Simon Cowell of his day (except without the attitude).
I think vintage Cher is the best. Her teeth and nose weren't fixed and she her talent was so raw. The stars today are too concerned with being cookie cutter images of "perfection" and their talent is questionable.
Yes...and ironically enough Glen was married to a 16 year old at the time. I often wonder what Cher thinks of many things, including the whole Spector/Lana Clarkson murder case. She was around Phil enough to know what a nut he was. Phil will be dead before his next trail begins at this rate.
WOW this is gorgeous! I love this song (i prefer her 1972 version though, it's a little better than this 1969 version) It's only too bad that she lyp-synched to it here. Other than that; LOVE IT! Cher is classic!
