why doesn't anyone sing like this anymore? is it that it wont survive mainstream sheep music? this is the music of my parents' childhood but i think it needs to come back.
@laykaljos ,Read your review also...May Jim RIP...I was Army 1966-1969...The last 5 years been a gift. I'm Agent Orange from those good and bad years...Use to play this song on the juke box at the commissary px...Miss those 45's...will be 65 in October Good Lord Willing...
Sorry to say that this is one of those GREAT songs of the sixty's that you don't hear on the oldie stations, at least not around here. ( central Illinois )
Wow, I'm lucky I grew up in the 50s and 60s. In 1955 I was 13. By the time it was 1960 ...wow again, the "sweet spot" of the oldies. Rockin' in the late 50s...then party time time in the US Army during the early 60s (well sometimes). All I can say as most of you posters who lived in those times, never again will there be true Rock & Roll and Doo Wop. This song and Lou were an example of the times.
Frankie Valli was great at going from Natural Tenor to Falsetto but Lou Christie seemed to have greater range since he could go from baritone to falsetto.
Awesome song i was 5yrs old when this song came out and i remember these songs from the day which is wierd.....frankie was good too...but i think this guy was just a little better....we will never see the innocents of that time again...dam it *sniff*
hello , !!! wake up you all , this is so cool , why ? its the 1st example of ragae sound to hit the mainstream !! check out the beat , along with the guitar and the organ . sound familer?
Donna Reed was gorgeous. Just the perfect iconic symbol of how good things could be, and almost were, back in 1963. I feel like that year was the apex of American life. Ever since then, the slippery slope took over.
Me and Jim Przybylski, drunk as skunks at a bar on the Square in Stevens Point; standing at the jukebox, singing falsetto with Lou Christie on this song as loud as we could. We got a round of applause from all the other drunks at the bar, and a request to do it again! I guess we must have hit most of the notes! :)
@ladbrady hi i think youll find two faces have i came out in july 1963. it was my favourite song then and was a huge hit in australia. cheers from oz.
Not many people know that this is the song Lou Christie performed for his final performance before his Prof. at Jullard --They must hae liked it --He has a degree from Jullard in Vocal Performance!!!!
What about Frankie Valli ? He and the Four Seasons hit the charts much earlier than Lou Christie with a similar vocal style. Not taking anything away from Lou Christie, but I contend that his falsetto probably wouldn't have been that well received by the record companies had it not been fro Frankie Valli setting the benchmark to be copied.
man, i had a '63 falcon futura convertible. that car helped get me laid early in life but, i wasn't listening to this kind of music. ha! it sounds cooler to me. now.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The guy at 0:29 to 0:33 looks like he'd like to smoke a pipe... a male pipe. What a bitch... I'd like to bust his ass... right now. Queer ass bitch...get a hold of me.
These were the days of hot rod Chevy's, bee hives, and car hops. Drag racing, under age drinking and drive in movies. D A hair cuts and white tee shirts. If you dont know or understand some of these, you are probably a lot young than me, but they were my good old days.
it's great to hear this song again after over 20yrs, I was about 10 the last time I heard it, before we lost the record. I love it, brings back great memories.
Takes me back to the summer of '63 -- bunch of friends and I spent most of that summer tearing around in an oldsmobile convertible chasing girls and generally making a nuisance of ourselves -- it was GREAT!
Thanks man, this other cat tells us that it was 1963s best song...Not so sure what that means....With the Beach Boys...The Four Seasons, motown and the Beatles to contend with....Perhaps he is talking about 1963 on another planet. I did however enjoy this song...Then and now...I just did it alone...TF
My first concert ever was Lou Christie and Del Shannon at the Ford Fieldhouse in Gand Rapids,Mi. It was 1983. I was 6 years old . Remember him singing this.
Always a favorite of mine, saw Lou on a PBS Special and he looks and sounds almost as good as he did back then. He can really get the audience pumping as they wait for him to hit the high notes.
They probably meant reggae; a lot of the early reggae records sounded an lot like this (without the falsetto). I understand that he wasn't intending to make it sound like reggae (if the term even existed at that time), or even Jamaican, but somehow that sound bled over in one direction or the other. Maybe this song got a lot of airplay in Jamaica.
@laykaljos I loved hearing this & in the same note it was depressing. When you can remember riding in your Dad's 58 chevy and hearing this on the radio when it was hit , it just reminds us how old we are. yes bring back the 60's , bring back everything but the war , then my cousin Jim would still be with us.
never thought frankie n lou had anything in common, just both great entertainers!!! saw lou a few weeks ago, still hits those hi piched sounds, go lou BRAVO!!!
oak:Whose voice has more range; Lou Christie or Frankie Valli
Christie was frequently written off by critics as an "imitator" of Frankie Valli, as both men possessed VERY similar falsetto vocals, and the ability to change almost effortlessly between it and their normal registers.
@sueezee I don't think the two should be compared, they're two very different singers with different talent sets. It's like comparing blueberry pie and apple pie, they're very different but both an absolute treat.
I always loved this tune. It was etched into my memories for years afterwards. I remember 1963 as one of the best years ever. I was just a grammar school kid, but never forgot this ultra-strong falsetto of fun.
"Handyman" was definitely a Jimmy Jones hit, although Lou did cover a lot of hit tunes such as "Stay" and "Tears On My Pillow" among many others, but I don't recall him ever covering "Handyman".
i had this "45 as a kid and haven't heard this song in over 25 years and looking back i always thought it was a girl singing till today LOL.. good post
Wow! I found this song at last. You wouldn't happen to have the song Handyman also by Lou Christie would you? I'd love to hear that song again. I get a kick out of the dancing stick figures. They're so cute. Thank you so very much for this video. By the way, the cars are hot! :)
Simply stunning!!! - It is a extraordinary video-collage of 60's living! - Two Faces Have I is the best song ever published by an artist named LOU CHRISTIE and still a hit! - I had heard it the first time in a 1973 K-Tel ad for a compilation album (vinyl) named "JUKEBOX JIVE" a 22 (or more) hits album. It has a jukebox shaped sleeve and it was probably one of the best albums from K-Tel!
Yes, I did see him in Cincinnati in the late 1960's! He did a Fab concert there, it was sold out! I think about 9,000 people were there, and the concert lasted about 2 and 1/2 hours! Pure Rock 'n Roll!!!!! Lou Christie is GREAT!!!!! He was rockin' then, and still rocks!
Hi David. I was there in 60ies. Saw Lou at David Clark show in 1963. My next door neighbour was his secretary. He was the best to me and always will be. DemiXXX
yup today is music is a bunch of crap 32 here love that music wish ii would have lived that era mine was the 90s it was ok better then todays crap piece.
YAY!!! I love this song!! I sing it with my Dad all the time!! I'm only 17 but I love the songs from that time!! They maybe shorter then the stuff today but they mean so much more then the stuff of today's music. Alot of the songs today sound alike, or am I crazy?

You take the words right outa my mouth.
In my humble, selfish opinion, You, as I, whatever our circumstance, lived the best of times.
WW11 ended five years before my Brother and I (twins) were born - August 6th, 1950, (yes, we are very aware of that date)..
After WW11, for many, Australia was the land of milk and honey, hard work, good pay, spartan living conditions, sounds, tastes, culture's.
MUSIC.
I STILL, hear, enjoy, and learn.

Simply stunning!!! - It is a extraordinary video-collage of 60's living! - Two Faces Have I is the best song ever published by an artist named LOU CHRISTIE and still a hit! - I had heard it the first time in a 1973 K-Tel ad for a compilation album (vinyl) named "JUKEBOX JIVE" a 22 (or more) hits album. It has a jukebox shaped sleeve and it was probably one of the best albums from K-Tel!

I find that the old songs from 1950s/60s/70s Top 40
stick in my mind but today's pop music sound (what is
pop music today anyway? Heavy Metal? Rap? The static
between radio stations?) melts away like so much
cotton candy and is about as norishing!

Did you see him? and do you know if he is signing in Italy?
blinko656 4 years ago
Yes, I did see him in Cincinnati in the late 1960's! He did a Fab concert there, it was sold out! I think about 9,000 people were there, and the concert lasted about 2 and 1/2 hours! Pure Rock 'n Roll!!!!! Lou Christie is GREAT!!!!! He was rockin' then, and still rocks!

what is "signing" mean?
demilast69 4 years ago
I meant to say singing. He is considering singing a song in Italy soon, according to his website. LOU BELONGS IN THE HALL OF FAME...

Blink..I agree. He was my "all time fav" in the sixties.

YAY!!! I love this song!! I sing it with my Dad all the time!! I'm only 17 but I love the songs from that time!! They maybe shorter then the stuff today but they mean so much more then the stuff of today's music. Alot of the songs today sound alike, or am I crazy?

What a great comment coming from a 17 year old, your dad should be proud of you. Now your job is to keep this music alive until you become a senior.

Same here! Why is it I can still remember so much of the 60's, but not a lot of the 70's?
