I'm not sure you got the results you think you did. I didn't view this just because I thought it was Peter and Gordon. I really thought maybe Peter and Gordon had done a cover of the Chad and Jeremy song.
Regardless of which duet the photos are of, the song by Chad and Jeremy is awesome. A friend and I did the song "My Coloring Book" as done by Chad and Jeremy in a school talent contest and won the competition. Their music and lyrics were simple yet brilliant at the same time. Myself and a couple of other partners are doing our part to help keep the classics alive. You can hear our selections by searching Vintage Entertainment LIVE on here.
i not sure it's true,but one time i read somewhere that on their debut lp,the cover has a picture of peter and gordon on it.but my copy has chad and jeremy on it.could it be on the first pressings of chad and jeremy's 'yesterday's gone' debut lp has the error photo? if anyone knows,let me know.also great debut hit(#21pop,1964).
For the 9 who do not like, the only reason not to like it is that it is not your genre. It is a great song from a time where all bands where expected to be squeeke clean. Mcartney was smoki
9 LOSERS...I really wish you R.A.P. shit lovers would just go away for ever. You simple don't know anything about great music, let alone great songs. GOD. I HATE R.A.P. SHIT. It's not even music. CRAP
Peter Asher is Jane Ashers' brother and she dated one of the Beatles for awhile ( I think George) and was an actress in her own right. Just a FYI for anyone interested in 60s trivia frm an old hippie.
"We had such happiness together.......I can't believe it's gone foreeeeeever....." Probably the best part of the song, love it all 1000% though! Sometimes I get an itch for some classic oldies, I had just listened to Peter, Paul and Mary's "Dig Rock n' Roll Music" just before. I was listening to the Beatles the other night, I had forgotten all about "I'm A Loser".
Good morning, do you like sixties? Listen and pod cast my program " great sound of 60' s " on the site plumfm. Greeting and made blooper in rock and roll.
Salut, vous aimez les sixties ? Ecoutez et podcatez mon émission "le super son des sixties" sur plum fm. Salut et faites gaffe au rock'n roll.
its great to see that all of these acts form the 60's are getting the huge amount of views that they are. it is just proof positive of how great, universal and classic this era was.
i end up watching 2 or 3 hours of related clips whenever i take a foray into this era. my entire childhood and teen years are represented here and it is comforting.
@mtnthai It's addictive isn't it ? As soon as I open one clip I have to go to another.....I love all eras of rock music but it doesn't get any better than the 60's for the most joyous and fun records of all time, does it ? Happy New Year !
This is "Peter and Gordon" not "Chad and Jeremy" which I'm sure you all recognized with the few brain cell you have left from the 60's...Dan O'Niallain, Grafton, Ma.
I grew up in the 90's and have been listening to this song and "A Summer Song" ever since I can remember - the benefit of having parents culture their kids in the field of music. Chad & Jeremy is the best!
Hey the pictures are of Peter and Gordon not Chad and Jeremy but they are both great and they were often confused with each other, but hey the song was Chad and Jeremy. By the way Chad and Jeremy had a few TV acting roles as themselves on both The Dick Van Dyke show and the campy Batman. I never missed anything they did or anything they sung.
As someone else has pointed out here, why on earth are we looking at pictures of bleeping Peter and bleeping Gordon??!! They weren't that hard to tell apart, fer gosh sakes! Oh, yeah, and to "at7000:" it no doubt will be shocking to members of your generation that recorded history did not -- repeat -- did NOT -- begin in 1985.
its actually STUART CHADWICK ?????they featured in the original batman series in usa ,,,,,KER POWWWWWWWWWWWW BLATTTTTTTTTTTT SOCKKKKKKKKKKKK,,,,,,,,,,,,,,...............AMEN,,,,,,,,
Isn't this song by "Peter and Gordon"? One of which thinks his image was hi-jacked in the Blockbuster "Austin Powers" in the late 90's. Dan O'Niallain, Grafton, Ma.
@oniallain1965 Nope. Chad wrote this song when he was all of 16 years of age. C and J and P and G are similar and easily mixed up. But they are very different people. I had the pleasure of hearing Chad and Jeremy in person just a month ago and they were charming and very good.
These two '..obscure nobodies..' were not 'obscure' , nor were they 'nobodies'. In the mid-sixty's, they were well known and very popular. Perhaps not as well known as the 'Beatles', but, still known and like by a large slice. Good musical scores and great harmonies were almost like a trademark. And yes, they still sound better than 90% of what is produced today.
@laugh1ing That's right. They received extensive airplay and charted steadily during the British Invasion No mean feat.. And yes, they do sound better than 90% of the crap produced today.
This tune was released a bit before my time, but have heard it numerous times, so I don't think you can call them obscure nobodies. What surprises me is, correct me if I'm wrong, nobody's had a hit cover of this one.
I think this is so funny, that you used Peter and Gordon to represent Chad and Jeremy. :-) Both pairs werre hugely succesful in America while other British acts like Cliff Richard And The Shadows, Joe Brown, Marty Wilde and Billy Fury couldn't get arrested there.
@at7000 ... because they ARE better! These guys, and others like them, knew how to use their voices and add beautiful harmony to a simple beat from a drum and guitar. They were awesome ... as was the music of that time. Enjoy!
This song is on my :Manny The memories" CD. By the way at7000, The music today don:t care about Quality or the art of music, they care about its good enough to make Money.
These guys were big. You take the Everlybrothers ,Peter and Gordon,Hermans Hermits ,Jan and Dean. They all sound better than most . If you want a funny laugh type in Saftey dance literal version and watch that hit from the 80's funny remake.
@DONGOE he explains it. He could not find any photos of Chad and Jeremy and so he posted Peter and Gordon with whom Cand J are often confused. Thus solving one problem with humor.
Despite being mistaken at times for Peter & Gordon,Chad & Jeremy had a distinctive style all their own,making this their best-known & successful song.Great tune!Thanks!
You say you couldn't find pictures of Chad and Jeremy? Just Google their names, you'll find plenty. It makes no sense to put up a bunch of pictures of Peter and Gordon with this song of Chad and Jeremy.
I met Jeremy Clyde years ago in a coffee shop near the old Hullabaloo nightclub in Hollywood...very nice man, and he was cute! Peter Asher represents James Taylor, and sent me an autographed picture of him (JT) when a friend wanted it.
looks like some one has a jealousy issue...on here.. sorry for the friend invite..I do not in any way want to such your dick, like your girl accused me of..
too bad for you to have to be in a realationship like that...sorry for you.
I saw C&J in person -- they were a great talent! If you want pix, go to Google Images -- you'll find tons! :-) Another bit of trivia -- C&J appeared in an episode of Dick Van Dyke Show in the 60's. Played themselves. They were hiding out from the fans at Rob & Laura's home while visiting the show. It was a cute episode. :-)
@at7000 There are many groups from the 60's that are obscure if you weren't alive then. These were far from obscure then and I agree they are better than the current crop. Put that down to the youngsters being absorbed with electronic gizmos rather than being totally absorbed with music which was pretty much the only outlet for kids. In the 60's you were either making music or listening to it
@at7000 I saw them last night and they were really entertaining. In the mid 1960s they were far from obscure as they had 7 top ten hits in a row and made very successful appearences on top tv shows like the Patty Duke Show, Dick Van Dyke (as the Red Coats) and Batman. Chad wrote this song when he was all of 18 years old. Like everything else this style of music faded and they were supplanted by newer acts.
@at7000 Well actually they weren't nobodies. We all liked them in the 60s, even though they weern't as big as some of the bands. The music was better then because the times were different-- many people were still idealistic and little innocent, and the musical tradition valued beauty and often a bit of humility (which has been totally lost).
@at7000@at7000 Well actually they weren't nobodies. We all liked them in the 60s, even though they weren't as big as some of the bands. The music was better then because the times were different-- many people were still idealistic and little innocent, and the musical tradition valued beauty and often a bit of humility (which has been totally lost).
@at7000 ... because they ARE better! These guys, and others like them, knew how to use their voices and add beautiful harmony to a simple beat from a drum and guitar. They were awesome ... as was the music of that time. Enjoy!
@at7000 First off, to those of us who grew up in the 50's and 60's, Chad & Jeremy are far from "obscure nobodies." That said, to answer your question: talent. They had talent and great songs to sing.
Back then, the music itself was the star, unlike nowadays when it's all about the artist saying "Look at me, me, me. I'm a star." It's such a turnoff, especially when they're devoid of talent as most of them are.
@at7000 because once upon a time there was true effort to put quality into music. your audience demanded it. now days the record buying community will accept anything.
@at7000 Easy. But first, they weren't THAT obscure.. Back then - music.. and life - it was for living & enjoying. Today..? It is a controlled existence, designed to maximize profits, while discouraging leisure time... and promoting a 'work culture'. The lines between your job and home/leisure/fun - very indistinct. Thralldom. Enjoy your.. existence....
@lbfield They were one of teh best groups around. I have all their vinyl albums, but have transferred them to CDs. I love their voices and their music.
Gotta agree with you Nuerth. I grew up in the midst of all these "artists". I knew from the start (because of my great appeal for the Beatles) that Peter and Gordon were "probably" going to be a flash in the pan. Chad and Jeremy on the other hand I felt had more natural talent and great passion for their music. Easily compared now... Look at and listen to P & G and then C & J live today. You'll see a big diferrence in delivery, etc. IMHO
i definitely agree that though peter and gordan were good chad and Jeremy though ive never seen them live studio wise they had there craft down to the tune very excellent in making music
Nuerth, you make a good point. Good comment. However, there was a counter-point that I remember the media making back in the day. Their take was that since Peter was Jane Asher's brother, and Jane Asher was romantically involved with Paul McCartney, and millions of girls had crushes on Paul, it hurt Peter & Gordon by being associated with Paul's girlfriend Jane. Girls were jealous. I don't know if that story makes sense, but I remember it being spoken and written about back in the '60's.
A great duo from the 60s. They never has the publicity and airplay of others at the time (Beatles, the Stones, Manfred Mann, etc) and they did deserve better. They had a nice smooth sound compared to other groups of the day and yes I was around then, my teen years were the 60s.
The British Invasion and that thing called Merseybeat, .

I saw C&J in person -- they were a great talent! If you want pix, go to Google Images -- you'll find tons! :-) Another bit of trivia -- C&J appeared in an episode of Dick Van Dyke Show in the 60's. Played themselves. They were hiding out from the fans at Rob & Laura's home while visiting the show. It was a cute episode. :-)

They also appeared in an episode of Batman (the TV show) - also as themselves. Catwoman stole their voices.

Why do these two obscure nobodies,sound better than 90% of the music being produced today?
at7000 2 years ago 54
@at7000 There are many groups from the 60's that are obscure if you weren't alive then. These were far from obscure then and I agree they are better than the current crop. Put that down to the youngsters being absorbed with electronic gizmos rather than being totally absorbed with music which was pretty much the only outlet for kids. In the 60's you were either making music or listening to it
bobcooper31 1 year ago
@at7000 I saw them last night and they were really entertaining. In the mid 1960s they were far from obscure as they had 7 top ten hits in a row and made very successful appearences on top tv shows like the Patty Duke Show, Dick Van Dyke (as the Red Coats) and Batman. Chad wrote this song when he was all of 18 years old. Like everything else this style of music faded and they were supplanted by newer acts.

@at7000 Well actually they weren't nobodies. We all liked them in the 60s, even though they weern't as big as some of the bands. The music was better then because the times were different-- many people were still idealistic and little innocent, and the musical tradition valued beauty and often a bit of humility (which has been totally lost).

@at7000 ... because they ARE better! These guys, and others like them, knew how to use their voices and add beautiful harmony to a simple beat from a drum and guitar. They were awesome ... as was the music of that time. Enjoy!

@at7000 First off, to those of us who grew up in the 50's and 60's, Chad & Jeremy are far from "obscure nobodies." That said, to answer your question: talent. They had talent and great songs to sing.

Back then, the music itself was the star, unlike nowadays when it's all about the artist saying "Look at me, me, me. I'm a star." It's such a turnoff, especially when they're devoid of talent as most of them are.

@at7000 because once upon a time there was true effort to put quality into music. your audience demanded it. now days the record buying community will accept anything.
alexalot23 1 year ago
@at7000 Easy. But first, they weren't THAT obscure.. Back then - music.. and life - it was for living & enjoying. Today..? It is a controlled existence, designed to maximize profits, while discouraging leisure time... and promoting a 'work culture'. The lines between your job and home/leisure/fun - very indistinct. Thralldom. Enjoy your.. existence....

@lbfield They were one of teh best groups around. I have all their vinyl albums, but have transferred them to CDs. I love their voices and their music.

Gotta agree with you Nuerth. I grew up in the midst of all these "artists". I knew from the start (because of my great appeal for the Beatles) that Peter and Gordon were "probably" going to be a flash in the pan. Chad and Jeremy on the other hand I felt had more natural talent and great passion for their music. Easily compared now... Look at and listen to P & G and then C & J live today. You'll see a big diferrence in delivery, etc. IMHO

i definitely agree that though peter and gordan were good chad and Jeremy though ive never seen them live studio wise they had there craft down to the tune very excellent in making music
wregerg1 1 year ago
Unfortunately as with any inside track it can
ultimately become as much a hindrance as a
bonus,but from the stand point of the music
industry.back then anything even remotely
connected to the Beatles got carte blanche,
but as with any shadow that powerful Peter &
Gordon were completely packaged as a synthetic version of the Beatles

Peter & Gordon had an unfair advantage since Peter's sister Jane Asher was dating Paul McCartney which gave them access to Lennon/McCartney tunes
written specifically for them
Nuerth 2 years ago 3
Nuerth, you make a good point. Good comment. However, there was a counter-point that I remember the media making back in the day. Their take was that since Peter was Jane Asher's brother, and Jane Asher was romantically involved with Paul McCartney, and millions of girls had crushes on Paul, it hurt Peter & Gordon by being associated with Paul's girlfriend Jane. Girls were jealous. I don't know if that story makes sense, but I remember it being spoken and written about back in the '60's.

A great duo from the 60s. They never has the publicity and airplay of others at the time (Beatles, the Stones, Manfred Mann, etc) and they did deserve better. They had a nice smooth sound compared to other groups of the day and yes I was around then, my teen years were the 60s.
