Tony Orlando - Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow

[LadODell]

I came to the US in 1960 from Scotland. I was alone, and lived with friends of my parents. I had never heard anything like the music you had here. Tony was one

of the first ones I remember. I grew up with him and he's still one of my special

favorites. Keep 'em coming Tony, we love it.

Your welcome! Ahh, Tony, SUPER style! Back then they were afraid to do this song because of the lyrics. They were not sure how the public would respond to it is probably why Mathis turned it down. The song really represents having sex one night and wondering if it was more than a 1 night stand the next day. This is before America turned perverted and respected everybody's feelings, now, anything goes. Big Bad John, the original was band from the radio because of the ending: At the bottom of the

mine lies on HELL of a man, Big John. They had to change it to HECK of a man. Just thoght I'd through that in?

[mb7668]

I didn't know that about Big John. I did read about Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow being banned in certain areas, but I come from the NYC area, and it was not banned there. Could be why Mathis turned it down.

Probably so, Mathis was well known to the older generation because of his style. I remember that with Big John. I remember hearing the original version, I'll see if i can find it.
