Freddie & The Dreamers You Were Made For Freddie

[euanrafferty]

Can someone tell me what show this is ? Freddie had something special ; he knew nit to take it seriously. You'll find nearly any successful rick n roll musician will love him.

[JamesPortland]

We are in an age of cynicism and anger, the early 60's was a time of growth and simple fun. These guys were never serious, this was their act, their shtict! Not the most popular group ever but they were well liked by most people. A fun group like the Monkee's. You have to have lived through this time to get their music. Let's put this into perspective before you criticize it. This song was popular almost 50 years ago, that's half a century ago.

[SOS763]

What the fuck is that wanker doing at the beginning? I hate the fucking 60s.

[PonyTails55]

Class act! Freddie, was another Jerry Lee Louis! He loved to make folks laugh!lol

[MrDjc1970]

I'm ready Freddie....sing another :))))

[TheRcdon]

This is so nice

[TigsDenStudio]

I LOL'd when Peter Noone leaped onstage to Do The Freddie. Freddie looks like he's trying to outdo everyone else as though its a competition. What a great, enthusiastic guy Freddie was. We need his energy in todays bands. RIP Freddie. <3

[sarahfromnatick]

Rock supergroup? Nope. Charismatic? Oh, yeah!!

[pendragonU]

This the dorkiest ever

[wallofvideo]

man, they had a stage act at least as tight as the beatles! perfectly synchronized.

[LittleDragon2000]

Freddie and the Dreamers were my fave group in the early 60s. Even had an autographed photo.

[delionvanadis]

I wanna do the freddie!!!!



[LasVegasJim]

A great era. RIP, Freddie. Thanks.

[adri1430]

@odavid45 I love your friends! ;-)

Thanks my angel.

Besos!

[weasleynmunatoti]

I love Freddy, he's so cool and funny! ;) and he looks kinda short... !

[moxie96]

aren't some of these dancers from "Where the action is" too? I recognize some faces!

[bustercotten332]

they all got their hamstring workout in

[gilllew]

EVERY TIME I HEAR THIS - FIND MYSELF REMEMBERING THE "BARRON KNIGHTS" "CALL UP THRE GROUPS" (WHICH CAME OUT IN THE SUMMER OF 1964)AS THEY HAD A VERY FUNNY TAKE OFF WHICH WENT "I COULD NEVER BE A CORPORAL IN THE CAVALRY PLEASE DONT PICK ON ME, I AM ONLY 5FT 3"! I DONT LIKE THE ARMY LIFE THE AIRFORCE DONT LIKE ME, I WONT JOIN THE NAVY BECAUSE I GET SICK AT SEA! DOES ANYONE ELSE REMEMBEDR THIS RECORD?

[rosilva0909]

rosilava0909

englishmem idiots

[cjwaywell]

Imagine one of the boy bands dancing like that now! This was the first song that I ever heard and I loved it.

[AnElephantsChild]

Didn't that drummer look like Bobby Moore in his close up?

Thank you for sharing this x x

[ahafan64]

I can play this song on a guitar, but I would have hated to run backwards onto those stage plateforms without falling. That isn't as easy as they made it look.

[skinnyrichard]

freddie you we're the nuts son!!

[RalphMFlores1]

This was a modern day Vaudville entertainment, out dated now but still a "catchy" flapper.

[gteraka]

Thanks for bringing back the memories! Freddie , even though you are gone your music and memories live on. We used to watch this program all the time.

[CriminalPsycho]

This Fucked UP world needs more Freddie...simple plan eh ?....lol

[flamesounds]

Great Mod stuff..........the coolest of times....Maaaann, we had a BLAST, didn't we???

[ChampagneCraig]

People who want to bash "The Freddie" are just jealous.

[flamesounds]

@ChampagneCraig Exactly! Won't ever know what real cool is!

[flamesounds]

@flamesounds You got it, Baby!!!!!!!!!!

[shenay65]

its was fun dont have to be great..wheres the fun now..im waiting cant see it or hear it..music died in the 90s..someone needs to revive it.and id rather see silly dances than someones butt in my face

[lanadoitch]

@shenay65 Actually, it died long before that--I would say the disco era killed it.

[nitramgnal]

This is rather embarrassing - now. I can see where Claude Francois got his early dancing from.

[urizzle7]

im trying very hard to appreciate this...

this is not a good thing

[SuperDolcheVita]

Ugh! A lot of mediocrities got through during the British Invasion. This is one of them.

[HayabusaR1300]

Great fun guy from a time long gone.Good old Freddie RIP :)

[jgoudeau207]

Its like hey mon, Just do the

"Freddie!"

[cgd1959]

What an idiotic comment! Just goes to show that era was a DIFFERENT era, an age of innocence & 'bubble gum' & light, fun stuff today's pessimists are UNABLE to remotely fathom.

BTW, I'm no bleeding heart lib, either! Just calling it as it is!!!

[BillyBigTop]

@cgd1959 Your spot on !!.... we've lost our innocence!

[RedcoatMic24]

@cgd1959 The Cold War was an era of innocence at light fun?

Rose tinted nostalgia is all you get on Youtube videos of old stuff...

[freddonie]

zuper! Ive seen the future

[fysjutton]

He's like... a really white, dancing Urkel.. O.o

[MDHMAN4]

Their so GAY.

[aryanscience]

Isn't that Peter Noonan aka Herman's Hermits jumping in later on?

[StanBennet]

Good eye.  It's him.

[CenaTv2]

nah i don't think its him from hermans hermits but i definitly saw martha and the vandellas

[SmittyHeWasNumber1]

If anybody acted foul towards Freddie his band would clobber ya!

[helltopay1]

A simon cowell no hoper ,surely?

[Zando24]

Epic on so many levels lol

[steve7138]

Today's politicians learned from Freddie--Looks like he's running for office!

[AlbertMondback]

Nobody beats THE FREDDIE.

[BThwaithe]

Most of the band are wearing toupees. Those guys were pretty old and mostly bald.

[youngbourbon]

Yeah, they were ancient, all in their twenties.

[kopynd]

terrible

[rg6025]

the poor black girls dresses are too tight,they cant do the freddie

[richmog]

This is so wierd. I've watched this a number of times and now I can't get that song out of my head.

Very funny!

[BirgitPat]

Oh my god!!!! *hahaha*....the performance seems a "bit" ridiculous - BUT the song is ever so lovely!!!

[BirgitPat]

Oldies rule, thank you for uploading!! So unique and uplifting. Especially the song "you were made for me" makes me smile happily <3

[puzleman1]

OH YES So Gay like the crap today Jonahs brothers and the rap and make belive stuff they copy from this era and try to make it good pppffffffffft

[madtv99]

Love ya Freddie!!!!!!!

[pipelinecenter]

Totally brilliant! Everytime I see the band I just can't stop laughing!

[CKYZZIE]

My God, this is some ridiculous crap. About as silly a crock as you'will find.

[Cldfsn0200]

that was soo gay!

[puzleman1]

yes so Gay just the like crap today

Jonahs brothers -and all the Rap shit to day so assinine

[mhs513]

Brilliant! And the band dancing too!

[smilzeee]

I'm sure someone was claiming freddie was not the actual singer ' and that he was miming

[CarlfBerger]

At four minutes, thirty-eight seconds: is that Roger Waters?!? That would be about right for time and place ...

[welarveit]

nah i think thats the lead singer from the sir douglas quintet.

[Cldfsn0200]

That is Doug Sahm from The Sir Douglas Quintet. See his video which was recorded just before this one on the same show. Its called "She Look Like A Mover". Its easy to find cause its in Black and White.

[BigBishop1]

doug sahm of sir douglas quintet

[thomasgordy]

The birth of modern Aerobics :^)

[eltoreiro1]

Well my favorite band is THE ZOMBIES,this guy is very cretin,nerd.Fredie go to circus little clown!!!

[benlooe]

That's right take life over seriously!!

There ought to be more people like you who don't enjoy somebody who was loved by thousands because he was a bit wacky. The winter nights must pass by very slowly in your house you self opinionated twat!! I'M NOT SURPRISED YOU LIKED THE ZOMBIES, PITY THERE WASN'T A GROUP CALLED 'THE TWATS' YOU TWAT!!!!!!!!!!

[spoofa20]

Australia loved this guy and his group.

[kdawggg008]

[FMorales40]

[dude482953]

[dude482953]

[jesijr]

just got out of a coma, huh?

[jesijr]

response to chubby,i mean stubby guy

[Stevo5862]

Ladies and Gentleman, may I introduce the start of the "Drug Era". My apologies to the late Jim Morrison for anything I might have said in the past.

[rod1148]

Few artists could match Freddie's energy.

RIP Freddie. Thanks for the memories.

[LittleDragon2000]

@rod1148 Amen. Freddie was one of a kind - a true original.

[Geoffrey1610]

HEY IT BUDDY HOLLYS BROTHER

[heytambun]

i see peter noone and the rollingstones joining in the end

[aryanscience]

I'd like to see some Ni@@er rap group do this now in 2009,,It would be great!!

[sixtiefan]

these guys made the people laugh & happy with their music & performance.Thanks Freddie & The Dreamers!

R.I.P Freddie Garrity & Bernie Dwyer(drums)

[burnley5960]

@sixtiefan Exactly they were great RIP

[OUtsidethenine4eva]

hes got quite a nice voice

[sheabhoy2008]

ah love this song

[HeidiLoveUall]

i Love love love love it

[rtupin1956]

I can't resist saying this...THE ORIGINAL DORKS !!!!!

[GARYMAX1313]

how true that is . it dont get any dorkier than that

[BlackMonk66]

Yet, in some ways, it doesn't get any cooler than that, either.

[titostacos]

That laugh at 2:00 is the best.

[pinckney90]

I wish I had a time machine

[darren1673]

lol go back and meet freddie ,that would be mad but fun

[roydammercer1]

yeah. so i can go back to the time that I fucked your mom.

[pinckney90]

ha ha ha ha ha ha Ilove it i can smell the musk

[ResidentGrouch]

I would like to see the stones do the freddie

[johnpro2]

...great dance routine  :(

[ddandyy]

what year was this?

[snarlinmonsta]

i love when the microphone falls into the camera's view at 4:08 and when the black girl comes in at the end and has no clue what shes doing

[DomAleixo]

How can she have a clue, trying to jumplike Freddie, with a tight dress like that....?:-)))

Emerson

[sadrsch16]

I like these two performances a lot more than the record. He has a lot more energy here. In You Were Made for Me, he should have done that laugh on the record. It is so funny.

[zaaritha]

This is the version I´ve been looking for!

[Razamabaz]

Brilliant to see this again. Freddie was a legend in his own right.

[56richardcory]

You had to be there. But compared to the kind of music that preceded it, this was revolutionary. I know, I know, it's hard to believe, but that's what made the 60s the 60s.

[MorrisManDanceMan]

i love this video and the muisc.

[telecaster1963]

Genius. just like the three stooges and laurel and hardy.

[johnpro2]

Ties and shoes..makes you drool..

[sundaeg1rl]

Ahhh, good old-fashioned British eccentricity. Where's it gone?

[JekyllBoote]

This clip is one of the cental documents of Western Civilisation.

Freddie Garrity belongs up there with Michelangelo, J.S. Bach, Dostoevsky and Wittgenstein!

[paulc23]

always makes me cry

[maynardgkrebsiii]

Awesome! To those of us who were there at the time, no further explanation is necessary. To those who weren't, I'm sorry, but none will suffice.

[Braintap]

Hard to believe anyone would actually choreograph this..... truely the shame of the 60's

[Lemjok]

"...a truly daft stage act, coming across like Blue Peter presenters taught to pogo by Pinocchio"

Dave Haslam: Manchester, England.

[telecaster1963]

pure punk pre history, i dare say.

[moosey62]

Jesus that is depressing.

[reformanda2573]

This was not a live performance. Notice, the instruments aren't plugged up and the drummer never touches the drums with sticks. Freddie is singing with a track.

[Renzokukon86]

you have shown me the light. i sincerely hope all that detective work (i.e. looking at the screen) didnt put you out too much. please teach me your brilliance in simple observation

[Germanicus666]

This was evidently a live performance, as evident in the audio-feedback problems throughout.

The Freddy is one of the most idiotic dances ever devised.

[BooNube]

Whoever gave your comment a thumbs down is kidding themselves. What, so doing The Freddy makes you look really urbane and sophisticated?

[visor109]

The center picture in the background looks like Buddy Holly.

[telecaster1963]

they look like british mobsters out from that 'get carter' movie. this makes them even funnier.

[oswalddfox]

Freddie is a dream!hahahahaha!

[Wehategod]

By the by is that tredie Lopez hosting? i can't spell his name srry

[telecaster1963]

Nw prblm. itz Trini Lopez indd

[telecaster1963]

yes, he his trini lopez.

[Wehategod]

Freddie and The Dreamers were one of the British invasions best plus freddie is quite the preformer. Do the Freddie and you'll see

[Bertrandd06]

Merci Freddie j'aime ce que tu fais.

[racingpigeon03]

great video

[fooser1]

There was a clip of Annette and Frankie doing the Freddie during a live performance of this. Anyone know what happened to it?

[BabyBoo300123]

WOW WHOS here from Y!A

[sannayy]

oh boy haha

he's precious

[progamer9797]

i saw this at school

[seltaebfan1]

Peter Noone, Doug Sham, Augie Meyers and Trini Lopez Doin The Freddy!! Priceless

[kingvidiot66]

Let's not foget the king of Rock n Roll, the merry Mr. Chuck Berry is out there doing the Freddie!

[passover77]

Thanks for posting this. I remember as a young teen seeing Freddie and cracking up at the way he and the band danced while seeing. It was also hilarious to see the other acts come out at the end and do the Freddie with him.
