@roosevelthighschool The Vogues were formed in 1960 by lead baritone Bill Burkette, baritone Don Miller, first tenor Hugh Geyer, and second tenor Chuck Blasko, who were all high school friends from Turtle Creek, PA.
@3321MDZ you are from ulysses kansas? my mother grew up in moscow and my aunt and uncle and cousins grew up in ulysses! small freakin world. they nicknamed it "useless", kansas! hahaha
Hmmmm Strange But True...... USELESS TRIVIA >>>>> You're the One co- composer Petula Clark Released this on Vogue Records in some countries and The Pittsburgh Pa Group with the US Hit ....... The Vogues....
This song was really big during Operation Harvest Moon for Hotel Company, Second Battalion , Seventh Marine Regiment in December 1965. Shortly after this they cleared the caves at Duc Pho.
Class of '70' 'here. 1:45 - Wow. Looks like a class of '67' senior that I fell in love with as a freshman. Oh if only I had been three or four years older.
HOW MANY PEOPLE SAY THE SAME THING," REMINDS ME OF A BETTER TIME" ...WELL ADD ME TO THE LIST, WE DIDN'T HAVE THE THINGS THE KIDS OF TODAY HAVE...BUT WE DON'T HAVE THEIR PRESSURES AND PROBLEMS ALOT OF THESE KIDS HAVE TODAY
@lawdog490 It wasn't just the kids either. My parents had a smipler life and enjoyed it. We had five kids and lived in a 4 bedroom house. Only my oldest sister had a room of her own. We had one car and no garage. We had one TV. My parents had a stereo console that had a turntable and a radio. They had maybe a dozen LPs. My middle sister had a record player that she won at a raffle. Between all of us kids we maybe had 20 45s and a dozen LPs.
@John1948ThirteenA When I read that, I can't help but think of Michael Savage (whether you love him or loath him) saying of the 50s/60s "A time when the chrome was thick, and the women were straight."
@John1948ThirteenA -- That's really funny, considering that you're talking about the 60s there, when you couldn't tell the boys from the girls and our whole culture was being undermined by it. The Vogues are more of a 50s musical sensibility (and I love their music -- I bought two or three of their singles and have one of the CD reissues, Rhino's I think), but they released this single in the 60s.
OMGoodness, my boyfriend just sent this to me....It is one of our favorites from that great time in our lifes. I had forgotten sooo many: thank God he has not. Great posting
Hi John1948, I assume you were born in 1948. I was born in 1950. I think that all the photos are YOUR photos that you traded for. Linda signed hers after all. Have you seen any these lovely ladies recently? Also,what high school is it?
@spook394 It was Millard High School, Millard , Nebraska. Yes I still see some of the girls on rare occasion. I will see Linda and Vicki at my 45 year class reunion in June. Some of the others will be there too. Linda was my date to senior prom. Another was my prom date the year before. The point of using photos of so many girls was to illustrate how it was for guys like me - wanting a long-term relationship but having such a short attention span. You're the one! No, you! or you....
@John1948ThirteenA Oops! The Linda that signed the photo is not the same Linda I took to senior prom. That Linda is at 0:25. Pam at 1:45 was my date junior year. Terry at 0:13 was my first crush and the standard all girls after were measured by. Shirley at 1:01 was my biggest regret. I should have tried a lot harder to win her heart. The other girls were all good friends.
@John1948ThirteenA Nice work with this video! Terry and Pam blow the others away, and I'll bet Pam in particular still has the good looks she possessed in 1966. Some women have that inner beauty that lasts for ever-the great love of my life is one of these. The goodness inside wins over everything!
Hi John1948, your montage is really fun. The women are all attractive. Yes, I still have the pictures I traded back in high school and they look like your lovely ladies from the 60s.
I'm of the Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, etc. generation, but I've got to tell you: I grew up on this kind of music, and it's my favorite! Thank you so much for sharing! :)
FYI...... Did you know "You're the One" is a song introduced on the 1965 album I Know A Place by Petula Clark? Written by Clark with her regular songwriter/ producer Tony Hatch, "You're the One" was a Top 30 UK hit for Clark herself.
Hey John1948...right on with the photos! No Facebook and "hanging out"...back in the day it was about having a real girlfriend. It seems like a million years ago that we exchanged wallet-size class photos! Every guy still has a few....unless his wife made him throw them all out!
Always a great song , you have added to it with your pictures . We all have fallen in love with a girl like those pictured . a great tribute to them all . I hope they all find this
@43300s Thanks. I thought it also kind of highlighted how fickle young guys were back in the day (or at least how fickle I was). I fell in love every week or two. At least I only fell in love with one at a time. LOL
Thanks so much, John1948, for providing this outstanding song and the womens' high school photos to go along. In particular, beautiful Linda reminds me of a good friend of mine from that time.... I'm a '65 HS grad, from SoCal.
Reminds of my first love, my ex wife...brings back some good times, bad times. Now, I'm dying of cancer, and you know what? None of the bad times mean anything anymore. Thank you, John, for posting this.
@georgehalo123 That is a very heartbreaking thing that you wrote . May God be with you and cure you. We will all be there soon enough. Its incredible but so few people come right out and talk about it.. I think its helps people and I admire your courage.
Wow..what memories on this great classic..Thank you for keeping our memories alive and forever with us..you are certainly one of the best doing so..much appreciation for these moments..
The girls pictured in this video are from Millard (NE) High School, class of 1966. Well one was class of 67. There were only 60 kids in our class and there are some pretty girls that I didn't have room for in the video. The class of 1966 was blessed.
If only I had someone to song this to :/
