Some People, 1962 Movie

[Poopingbotham]

Can't you post clips of up to 10 minutes on Youtube? I would have much rather have heard the full ep, side one of which could have been posted here & side 2 on another clip

Johnny's tune may well have been posted on this site, though I can't find it.

Ah well, I'll get my fine toothed comb out and see if I can find the rest of the tracks

I saw this film in the Tivoli Wimborne Minster Dorset. I had a motorcycle just like the one Ray brooks rode in the film Some People. I prefered Carol Deen's version of the title song. Pity there are only two clips of the film. Certainly takes me back.

@damoclesomegaman Carols version is brilliant.

Saw the film in 1962. Loved it then.

The music still is great - today!

Great voice.

I was 16 when I first saw this movie at the Harringay Odion ( ABC? )( north London for those of you who don't know London.. think Arsenal !! )... just a kid ( working underaged at th Nags Head pub Wood Green ) and was super awed by the publicity as seen here, an over sized guy in jeans from waist down trailing a guitar. Thank you for posting this memory of you youth.

Reminds me of the young Mods and Rockers those days, I loved this song so much when I was a teenager in high school, still enjoy singing along and keep replaying at the age of grandma, ha ha.

Brings a lump to my throat.I saw it in 1962 when it first came out and I still love it and Angela Douglas to this day.I have tried to get an MP3 version of the EP so that I can put it on my iPod but alas I have not managed to find one.Thank you for posting.

[itt1960]

Great song. The rhythm of the music is very very amusing. Does anybody have this song lyrics? Can you give me a copy?

[MrGermolino]

memories of my teenage years , wow!

[jonnyncfc]

Just found a dvd copy on Ebay for £6.50!!

HAPPY DAYS!!

[jonnyncfc]

Me and a mate watched this film on TV in the 80's and still mention it to this day!!

I remember BSAer Bill and a girl shrinking her jeans in the bath!!

Didn't it have something to do with the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme??

Would love to watch it again - How can I get a copy - anyone??

[lopzilla]

I still have my copy of this record, don't forget ' yes you did ' on the flip side. Give

me a bell if anyone would like this on MP3. The years of bikes, teds and steam trains.

[longlostpoet]

this film should be given a further showing on TV,

i was 17 in 1962

todays kids would probably laugh at out clothes

[26highstreet]

last time it was shown was on tv back around 1984/85 time one afternoon.

ive put a few clips of the film up

[clockworkcosmos]

I saw this movie when I was 12. The music and the voice of Valerie Mountain haunt me to this day. HOW I LOOOONG FOR THOSE DAYS: Next life I want to meet Valerie Mountain and fall in love

with her.

[clockworkcosmos]

BABY this song gives me shivers down my spine. T`hose were the Real Heavenly Days. Why couldn`t the world keep on spinning the same way it used to? ECCLEBERRY TELL YOUR MUM I LOVE HER!!!!!

[brianrdawson]

I fell in love with Angela Douglas there and then at age 14 . I wouldnt mind her phone number even now !!

Great music , great times .

[fireblade95]

will you burn me a copy ? how much? thanks

[26highstreet]

love the crazy steam flute organ type instrument, got a copy of this film on dvd although its never been released

[MadenUK]

Awesome! Its so great to listen to my mother singing. Thank you so much for posting.

[SirBasildeBrush]

Cool! Well I've posted it as well, I love it so much.

[old65rocker]

Hi Sir Bas, somewhere I`ve seen someone looking for Yes You Did can you post it for him or her please.

[Eccleberry]

Valerie is my mother, and she basically gave up music to raise me and my sister. This was a huge thrill to find on YouTube! Thanks very much!

[AGGeiger]

How is she doing? I've been a fan of hers for 40 years!

[lurchersamwe]

Cheers for this tune, I've not heard it for many moons! My beloved "James Dean look-alike" brother died on his motorbike in 1963 and as a young kid I inherited his record collection - and this was one of his "tunes" along with Eddie C etc. Many thanks...

[AGGeiger]

Sorry about your brother. I knew this movie from late-night TV in New York and found it fascinating as well as a great picture, and a great tune. I don't know whatever happened to Valerie Mountain, but the Eagles, from Bristol, kept busy for most of the 1960's.

[trapanner]

Cheers mate...very old song from a very rare film
