Sonny James ( Young Love )

[standingontruth1]

Are you a good person?

Have u lied? Have u stolen? Jesus said if you look at a women with lust u have committed adultery with her in your heart.

If God judge’s u by the Ten Commandments will u be innocent or guilty? Heaven or Hell? The Bible teaches despise the value of your eye compared to the value of your soul. would u sell your eye for a million dollars? And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. needgod.com

[MsFleur68]

Thanks for the memories....love it!

[yvonne43yhra]

[RJS3566]

Who is that doing the introduction? He looks familiar.

I love it !

Daddy and I used to board horses on our Tennessee farm and I remember those late 1950's afternoons going out with him to clean the stalls, water and feed the animals. We had a rudimentary stereo hook up in the barns and Daddy would put on radio music like Sonny James, Kitty Wells, Red Foley, Faron Young, Patsy and so many others. That Music made our memories and it made our work out in those old hot barns seem less of a chore and more of a dream.

[rickbandana]

@jeff62rey Man, THAT's a comment!

[DWhite2280]

Great song and great singer.

[Pickinbuddy]

I just LOVE that "tag" he does on the last line at the end.

Did you all know that for a brief while in the early 50s, he used to play fiddle with Jim & Jesse!!

[fmazzar]

So many memories of youth and family are connected to this song....my mom had this single and whenever she played it I reacted in a big way for a small child. I didn't know what Country music was and I thought all music was music. Radio was like that back then, plenty of room for all kinds of styles.

[KimberlySado]

My dad loves this song. I miss him so much.

[TheLadandLass]

another classic

[Katietoo]

Ahhhh, like my youth, it didn't last long enough, thanks.

[bobbyfozz]

I'm betting the six who didn't like this song were hoping for something with the same title from the current crop of untalenteds.

[sheltv100]

This live version contains the electrical bass.

[gloyahoo]

Excellent song.

[ILOVETHEOFFICE132]

this was such a great song, it's a shame he got lost in the desert.

[mareray]

[SPORTSNUTIM]

Love Sonny James music. That's all I can say.

[Jendor09]

[PuzzleSolver]

[Azishome]

Love the acoustic guitar sound.

[rocklvr71]

There's no comparison between the classic country and the newer country. Back then, the music was just exceptional. This song is an example of how perfect and timeless it truly was. Thanks for sharing.

[gloyahoo]

GOOD LOVE SONG - FIVE STARS

[gloyahoo]

BEAUTIFUL LOVE SONG 5*****

[gloyahoo]

GREAT OLD SONG 

[LousFool]

One of my Dad's favorites...

[rudituner]

I had the honor of meeting Sonny James a few days ago, and he definitely lives up to the title of "The Southern Gentleman"! Visit ClassicCountryCafe for an article about my experience with Sonny James, and a ton of great videos and articles featuring more legends of traditional and classic country music!

[raynewolfe43]

Thanks for the wonderful memories. This is PURE COUNTRY at it's best!!!!!!

[ampsanne]

I remember this song from my high school days back in the mid 50's. In fact it was one of my favorite songs that I would play on the juke box then. Sure brings back memories. Thanks for putting it on.

[7xcharles]

Several years ago, i talk to Sonny in a small Church of Christ in Bear Creek, Alabama.

He is as nice in person as his music. Charles, Haleyville, Alabama.

[GIMMESHELTER50]

PERFECTION!!!!

[stafylides]

A really lovely tune.  I just heard this on a British DVD serial called "Lipstick on your collar" from a book written by Dennis Potter.

[sainglain]

That man can sing.

[dkw1692]

does anyone have the song bright lights big city by sonny james?

can't seem to find it anywhere.

please post this song if you have it,thanks in advance dkw1692.

[ZeskoWhirligan]

Watch Sonny's fret hand in this or any video... It's like a very precise and delicate spider working the strings. He's an amazing guitarist and singer.

[GIMMESHELTER50]

EXCELLENT!!!!!

[Aidooosh]

he seems like the sweetest guy ever :)

[mkl62]

A #1 hit by The Southern Gentleman himself and the twelveth #1 C&W hit in the Rock Era.

[danrtopp]

When I Get Married I'm Gonna Get My Dad To Sing This Song At My Wedding 

[friedakay1958]

was one of my mother's favorites. Thanks for putting on this great video!

[jamima444]

oh my god i love this!i shouldve been born in the 50's.

[Swan1947]

WOW.....where is Sonny James today?

[Jibbie49]

@Swan1947 Wikipedia says he is 81, lives in Nashville, Tn with his wife, & is retired since 1983 after 30 yrs.

[IDONKNO28]

i love this song♥ :) 6-4-10

[zaaritha]

His version is the best!

[thercattrainer]

Sonny's version is so much better than Tab Hunter's! I have been a Sonny James fan for many years and I was fortunate to see him perform live back during the 70's at the "Four Season's Motor Lodge" Convention Center in Gatlinburg. Sonny sounds as good live as he does on his records.

[mjp2501]

Thanks for posting, Sonny James was one of my favorites, and I always loved this song.

[cheerymash]

one of the very best !!!!!!!!!!!!! of all time

[sharkfin60]

Great song from James !!!

[rvictor64]

Although, this was a Country and Western Song it was one of the select records that got air play on many of the radio stations in the New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia area. Even to the City people on the East Coast this song along with Marty Robins "White Sports Coat and a Pink Carnation" were popular. At that time Rock&Roll was a combination of music; Pop, Spiritual,DooWop,Blues, and Country. Anyone of them could be a hit. Ron--Highway Stars Magazine

[Rosie94100]

I wish music could be like this.

[idiotic76]

@Rosie94100 But it IS music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So music IS like this!!!!!!! So your wish has come true.

[zahnoma]

that´s a very nice song!!! my granddad and my grandnan has met with this song!

romance pur!!! can me anyone say where i can buy this cd??? i thank for answer´s!!!

[danrtopp]

@zahnoma This Version Of Young Love Isn't Available On C.D. The Only Way You Can Get This Version Is To Download It Off Youtube, By Using Youtube Downloader Which You Can Convert It Into An MP3. The First Time I Heard This Version I Was Looking All Over Limewire For And I Found Out It Wasn't Available At All Than Someone On Youtube Suggested Youtube Downloader

[ggbccb]

Thank you patinielsen. Music has always been very important in our lives and so was this song. In 1956 we first heard it and from then on until my husbands death in 2007 it was our song. A dear songwriter friend of mine in Texas heard what happened and she and her husband wrote "Right Up There On That Star" for me. My husband was a singer and guitar player too. Wonderful friends...

[sabrinafan1011]

I love this song so very, very much!!! :)

[luvcountry1960]

this takes me back to where I always want to be....

[sunnykitty631]

This song is going to be played at my wedding. My fiance and I are both relatively young, so this song is perfect. I love the simplicity of it.

[Myrtle791]

Ah, that's better! That scratchy 78's probably a valuable heirloom, but this kid's been spoiled by lots of studio sounds. (Dave, you're not a kid at 71!) };-] O.K., huh? Nice that you approve, this time, Tube-spirit.)

[Myrtle791]

Ah, that's better! That scratchy 78's probably a valuable heirloom, but this kid's been spoiled by lots of studio sounds. (Dave, you're not a kid at 71!) };-]

[Takoyakiee]

is this the whole song

[alababy1939]

Maybe was wrong, but have seen better ,love Sonny James music, his guitar playing is great make its sound out .

[danrtopp]

Does Anybody Know If This Version Of Young Love Is Available On An MP3?

[waserman123]

just download the youtube downloader its free, u download it and u can convert to wat ever u want, mp3, avi vid, ipod vid, iphone vid, etc.

[ileacok66]

@waserman123 Sorry if I sound a bit dim, but could you tell me where the downloader is, I've been wishing I could download from YOutube for ages but had no idea you could - would much appreciate you telling me how .

[danrtopp]

@waserman123 Thanks for the suggestion on that youtube downloader. After I downloaded onto my computer I converted 10 or 12 music videos into MP3's

[natashabedingfield04]

Ok, Damian McGinty covered this (Celtic Thunder) And in bad quality he looks like him, though it's offensive to say that, I love Damian, not in that way but he's a crackin' musician

[Etnecserc]

It must be from a variety show that was on a tight running time and so unfortunately the song was severely abbreviated. Too bad, the sound was good too for its time.

[danrtopp]

Does Anybody Know If This Video Of Young Love Is From A Movie By Any Chance?

[Redsailo88]

@danrtopp no it not my man

[strew8]

Thanks for this video, it's from my teenage years and is just great.

[alababy1939]

Bad vidoe

[Takoyakiee]

if its a bad video then why did you watch it

[ileacok66]

@Takoyakiee It could be argued that we can't judge if it's good or bad without watching it. Do you Takoykiee know when a video is bad without watching first?

[3investigators]

Always loved this song. Thanks for sharing it!

[hollyhobbie23]

Tnank you! I've been looking for my great uncle's videos for a long time!!

[Seneka420]

@hollyhobbie23 Stop Lying. lol

[Kittielips]

Thank you.

Believe me, I won't be sharing this one!

Only joking.....

5*****.

Where's Angel?

[miscbills]

This song always bring back good feeling of my child hood. My elders alway play country music.

[berdao]

Muito linda isso é que é musica!!!!

[publicman1986]

Sonny I'll be in Hackleburg soon.

[ggbccb]

YoungLove became popular when my husband and I started going together in the '50s. It was our favorite song for 51 years...until he passed away. Sonny James will always be my favorite.

[Timberland1952]

I recall hearing this song when I was a little boy. I still love it today. I sorrow at your loss. My wife and I started dating at age 16 in the 60's our song is "Never My Love" by the Association.

Best of wishes and love your memories

[barnessseeee]

@Timberland1952 This is so sweet of you....I guess I hadn't noticed it until now but it meant a lot to me....

[patinielsen]

@ggbccb - thank you for sharing this. It's amazing that you look up all the songs of Sonny James and others like him from this time and you see stories like yours. Shows you how important good music can be in our lives.

[patinielsen]

@ggbccb - thank you so much for sharing that personal information with us. I know you miss your husband but you have these great memories and that makes you very lucky,.

[mltw1371]

As a 62 year old man, looking back to my first true "Puppy Love" as they call it, this song brings back wonderful memories. It's always been one of my favorite songs.

[onquious]

Awwcute

[b46kim]

The Southern Gentleman will always be one of my favorites. Girlfriend and I saw him in concert in Pensacola Florida in 1964 or 5. She and I parted ways, but the memories come flooding back each time I hear Sonny James.

[docsavage98]

I've always tried to play like my two heroes...Sonny James and Lester Flatt...makes for some odd flat picking...and now that I'm 50 I still haven't got it right

[Maureen712]

This is Great! I love it! :D *****

[ladycharmable]

Beautifull song from sonny James

Thank you

Ladycharmable

[Grifiki]

I had his autograph . But not any more it went with most of my past.

Nothing to prove I ever lived. But I dont care.

You're left with what was Michael Jackson,

[mammie64]

what memories this song brings back thanks for posting!

[gladietita]

you have reason! not only for you! many people h've enjoyed this simple and wonderful song!!!

[kingdavetheproducer]

thanks my Uncle..

[tommyrock69]

Beautiful song! Especially when you hear it on an old jukebox. I did so recently and was blown away.

[cat2uhere]

There is a young man in an Irish group called "Celtic Thunder". His name is Damien McGinty, and he does a sweet take on this song. Take a look at his version. Type in "Celtic Thunder", and I believe all of you will have found a new favorite to listen to. Young Love by Sonny James was my parents song when they were dating.

[602710]

I have a small collection of records and it includes this song. Thanks again for sharing!!

[kelliepfan17]

This was my grandparents dating song when they were teenagers. We are celebrating their 50th anniversary this sunday and I am singing this for them =)

[elvisjimpa100]

dam right shakimdo totaly agree.

[shakimdo]

What an awesome tune, I love the oldies I grew up listening to this stuff. These are real singers not ones that need technology to sound god.

[koolbossjock]

Another one of the greatest songs of ALL time.Before robots took over Radio stations.

[larlekool]

I remember the first time I heard this tune. My family was moving to Florida, and we were in my dad's Packard just getting into Orange Park, Florida when the tune came on WAPE. I fell in love with the song on the spot.

[bobluman]

The Southern Gentleman introduced by the Boogie King, the late, great Merle Kilgore.

[ROYS5166]

Excellent post of a great old song. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

[claysjavelin1]

Great  5*****

[e9wisdom]

Terry, That's back when we had really good music. I really like your video selection. Keep those Great videos coming.

[tlmorgan56]

Hi Terry, Glad you enjoy the old stuff. Back then was when Country was country...I guess you have to be around our age to enjoy the great classic country....Thanks for your comments.....Your friend Terry....

[CashPresley32]

I am not around your age. I am 21, however I love the 50s and 60s Rock N Roll such as Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly and Ricky Nelson, the Classic Country such as Conway Twitty, Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, Merle Haggard, the bluesmen like Ray Charles and BB King, and Jazz like Louis Armstrong, and Bluegrass like Flatt And Scruggs, Stanley Brothers and Bill Monroe.

[daintyWatch]

@tlmorgan56

There are more and more young people who enjoy that great old music. I hear it from 13, 14 year old boys and girls. And I was born in 1983, and I LOVE the old music and can't stand the new stuff that they do today...

[RatifiedCow]

@tlmorgan56 not true about the age...ive grown up with this kind of music...love the videos
