This clip was my first discovery of the Lennon Sisters. I was trying to find clips of Melodie D'Amour of the Ames Brothers and this came up for a suggestion. I have been a fan for a few months and cannot stop listening to them. The second clip was their Little Darlin'/Sing for Your Father... I hope I get to meet them someday!
I COULD LISTEN TO THE LENNON SISTERS 24/7 NON STOP. I REMEMBER THEIR DEBUT ON THE WELK SHOW. I GREW UP WITH THE LENNON SISTERS I AM THE SAME AGE AS JANET.I AM SO GLAD TO RELIVE MY YOUTH THROUGH YOU TUBE.THANK YOU SO MUCH.MR.WELK ALWAYS DANCE WITH JANET LENNON
That's DeeDee top center,the oldest. Peggy the right, born in 41, Kathy on the left, born in 43, and Janet, the youngest of the sisters born in 46. But she's fourth of twelve. But they had a little sister named Mary who tragically was hit by a car at age 16 months.BTW DeeDee was born in Dec of 39.
the most beautiful,breathtaking,sexy yet innocent but contagious smile and expressions are on Kathy's face at 1:06min mark. I 'feel in love" with a teenager from away before my time. That is to me, the cutest face ever.I have to say She is my favorite in this video :-)
Extremely musical and sweet. They are all great...Lennons, McGuires, Peasalls, Andrews....all different yet awesome in their own individual way. They are relying upon the music and communication unlike the hype and "flash and trash" of many modern acts.
@erminsconcepcion They were recorded earlier in the same day as they would have to had 4 mic's to record all 4 girls and it would block the camera view. Today's technology is much better, with omidirectional mikes,which tthey did not have back then.
My favourite Lennon Sisters song. I keep coming back to it. And Melodie d'Amour sounds perfect, is clear, louder and with perfect images. And, of course, I love this song because it reminds me SMPM, in her 20's. She looked like tremendously with Peggy in this video. Old times good times
I have watched this video over and over and over again , I love the blending of the voices , and how pretty the faces are, for a few minutes I had a crush with all of them till I have seen the latter videos, its a good thing that unlike the time, I can always go back to the time that they were still young.......there you go! The feelings back again....
@1212ARTANIS - I was so enamored by Janet, as well. Now, as I watch these sisters more and more, I would have been happy with any of them thinking that I was interesting. All are so lovely.
What a talented group.... there is no finer era for melody and harmony then the 50's and early 60's... and they even play real instruments back in the day..... I once had a hand written picture postcard from Janet in 1957..... somewhere it got misplaced the last fews years... oh the memories.... thank you shirlgirlwhirl... you can srill see Lawrence Weld oon PBS
I was 5 when this aired and, regarding the Lennons, I couldn't figure why the girl down the block (Janet Lennon) was singing with my three cousins who lived 150 miles away and who didn't even know her (that'd be the 3 older sisters). In those days I assumed that everybody you watched on TV was somebody you knew - even though the resemblence could be quite vague...otherwise (I figured) why would you watch? Amazing how centric you are when you're five. Anyway, what a superb group!
Thank God. Back then it was totally false and there public faces never ever revealed the truth of there lives.Not to mention it's 4 teens singing about ther e
Gosh, how I love the way Peggy (far right) sings and projects this sweet song with all her heart! My eternal teenage crush on her will never end. You're The Dreamiest, Peggy!
A lost art of singing, I remember hearing them singing on th L.W. show as a child..What a special amazing group they were. I LOVED hearing them sing. God has truly blessed them.. I wanna hear more!!!!!!
Thank you shirlgirlwhirl for posting this great clip. I grew up in Australia in the 1950's listening to the Andrew and McGuire Sisters and only saw the Lennon Sisters through your posting, in January 2009. I love the soft sliding four part harmonies possessed by these incredibly talented (now) ladies. I would have loved to have grown up listening to these girls... I guess that I have a lot of catching up to do.
They had a wonderful mom, nicknamed Sis. I knew the family well, went to same church, school and played at their house as a kid growing up in Venice, CA. Their mom was a great coach and supporter. Sad about how their dad was killed by a mentally deranged man in August, 1969. Their lovely mom passed away about three years ago in Branson, MO.
When my sister and I would sleep over our Grandparents house when we were little, they always watched The Larence Welk show. Donna and I loved when the Lennon Sisters would be on. They were so sweet and their harmonies so perfect. Thanks for the memories!
Ah, yes, I remember exactly the same thing when I was about 4 and 5. I was born in '52, and would stay overnite at "Gramma and Grampa's" and we would watch Lawrence Welk. I had a crush on Janet Lennon (the youngest sister). My grandmother always yearned to go on the Welk show and dance with L.W. Sweet ol' memories, from 50+ years ago!
Absolutely precious! Is it a guy thing or is it just me...does anyone else get choked up and emotional when these girls go into their bedazzling harmony? And those smiles! The Lennon Sisters are everything wonderful.
The Lennon Sisters have always had a unique sound. I wonder who arranged their harmony parts. In later years when they wanted to sing more modern songs they should have realized that their appeal was in the harmonious sound they had cultivated. This is a good illustration of it.

Four pretty girls with bright eyes, cheerful smiles and darling dresses: Adorable!
Four distinctively beautiful voices that blend together in flawless harmony: Wonderful!
Clean, happy, and sometimes silly songs that are fine for even little ears: Delightful!
Expressions that suggest they enjoyed singing together as much as we enjoy listening and watching them: Priceless!
Women of character who have maintained their faith and values through decades of publicity: Inspiring!
