OK, can anyone figure out where he is getting the flower, everytime I watch .. one time it looks like bowser hands it to Johnny, the next time it looks like it's in his jacket.
Great! Touching, classy,great backround vocals as always. Takes me back to the 60's then to the 70's when Shanana did it. Just remember watching it on the little T.V. that worked on top of the big T.V. that didn't work! I must be a redneck!
I remember seeing this show! I was so jealous! I was about 12 then, I would've given my right arm to be in that girls place! Such a beautiful performer!
I'm a grown man (straight) and this video brought tears to my eyes.......so sweet and touching. I was lucky enough to see Sha Na Na over 20 times since 1971, and they always will be the greatest in my book. Truly professionals and they ALWAYS gave their all. They brought such joy into my life, and obviously many others,
@webwarrior2000 You are truly lucky. Being 10 yrs old and stuck in CA, I didn't even hear about these guys til 1977 (three cheers for television!). I have been hooked ever since. I didn't even pay that much attention to music until Chico stuck me with the bass-bug in particular, and the whole band hung me up on oldies. Couldn't catch their most recent Las Vegas show, but I did see them in Phoenix back in the 80's when I was living in AZ. I'll never forget that night!
Well, just listened to Bobby Helms version, beautiful, Bobby Vinton is the artist I remember doing this song and he was great. However, to me Johnny is the best version.
If this little girl doesn't steal your heart, somethings wrong--just so cute, & you can tell, she was falling in love with Johnny every moment. Classy, beautifully done. Wolfsky9
Hands-down, my all-time favorite moment from their wonderful TV show--I watched this, marvelling at Johnny's voice. And that little girl--total class, & just beautifully done. Thank-you so much for posting this wonderful memory. What a voice this guy had. Wolfsky9, 64 y/o
Johnny never got the credit he deserved for being one of the best singers of all-time. My opinion of course, but I hope there are people out there that agree with me!
@mikeletz There are millions of US. And he still has a great presence. And he is still beautiful. And he has a great sense of humor. I have made three CD's of his love ballads. I just keep them going. The Sha na na videos that are on here are just amazing. Enjoy
@mikeletz You are welcome. He keeps me going. I listen to everyday. Only once since I first found his Videos on YouTube I missed & I was so sick I couldn't move. I just have to find the new ones that show up. Everyone is great!
This is so sweet. This girl is now a woman but I bet she remembers this as a high point in her life. I know I would be telling my grandkds about it and I bet she will too.
well if I can "access" his website, I will look into that, thank you... I always liked all their "remakes" and the fast ones too, but I am a sucker for a SLOW, LOVE Ballad, always have been no matter what genre of music it is...
oh WOW someone ELSE from little bitty Delaware lol: Nice to "meet" you lol...
that is too funny... yeah I live in New Castle by DMV and I have rode down Kirkwood Hwy MANY TIMES blaring my car speakers with something GOOD lol... WoO HoO lol
how funny is that... NICE! write me anytime if you'd like...
Has any one gotten Johnny's CD'S? I know they must be wonderful!! Unemployed single mom, out of my reach right now. Just curious what some peoples favorite songs on them are, especially the Jazz one.
I just received Jazz Stew and Hidden Treasures today - they were on back order - just in time for my Birthday. Jazz Stew is on right now and OMG - it is beyond amazing... I can't even begin to tell you... there really aren't any words to describe the magic that is Johnny... Can't wait to listen to the other CD. If one can - this is a must have CD for any collection...
Thanks for the info. Back order, that means they are selling fast. I sure hope theres a lot made because I sure want them!! Glad you are enjoying them!
At least this girl looks at him most of the time. The girl on 12th of Never doesn't look at him as much. This is the one I'd like for him to sing right to me. My name is Angela but I was called Angel as a young girl. Thanks for putting these up, Cindy.
Cindy, you'll forever be my hero! This IS it! The one I've waited 30 yrs to see again. This is my FAV. I had to shed a few tears when I saw it. You and Johnny are VERY special angels and thank you so much!
I'm with you Tuppy! I thought my heart would burst when I saw this. Have you seen the other new Johnny songs that our angel Cindy put on? You will pass out I swear!!
Just for you girls. ♥ Just finished uploading all the clips from the 3rd installment. 4 installments to go still LOL. Can we all say together WE WANT JOHNNY?
@Foofsmom WE WANT JOHNNY!!!!!!!!!! Bless your heart for doing all these postings you are a true fan and our heroine for all your hard work. Now I know right where to come for my Johnny fix. We can not thank you enough.
I saw them too Skippy, I keep watching this one over and over, and I tear up everytime. I need help! Johnny is so precious. He should have had a #1 song with this one. The original is awful compared to Johnny's version.
All you need is a big dose of Johnny!! Have you seen the one with Milton Berle?? Johnny is so adorable and really showed how sweet he was and I'm sure still is. He's purty!!!!
OH I was just in hysterics over Johnny. Oh that reminds me I gotta write him and ask if he wants a copy of just his part or the whole thing. Yes Johnny and Danny were just WONDERFUL in the Uncle Miltie one. Yes Johnny is just as sweet as ever . At least via e-mail and snail mail anyway. I've not met him YET.
@SkippyWalls Hey SkippyWalls: I saw it when it 1st was on TV, I didn't get to record it, back when it was on TV, my parents didn't have a very good TV Set, much less let a-lone a VCR. :=(
Oh, I know! Me too, Tuppy!! I have been waiting and hoping to see this one posted. I can't believe it was on here a whole 3 days before I found it. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have several favorite Johnny songs, but this is the one I always thought of first whenever I remembered him and the show.
GREAT GROUP with such class
