16 Candles, Johnny died in March of 2011 I beleive he was 72 the group the Crest with Johnny singing lead. Johnny actually recorded this song in 1957 and released it in 1958.
todays my sixteen birthday and i wasnt in a good mood til my aunnt sent me this , idk why but it made my day ; ive been playing it non-stop its reeal good <3
One of the top voices of the 20th century,seems like most of the really great ones are gone,the approx 10 year period between 1955 and 1965 produced so many great artists and songs and it seems like its been down hill ever since,we had Johnny with us for 50+ years,you will be sorely missed,i hope your entertaining the rest of the crowd in heaven, your in good company
The candle is blown out but never extinguished.......Johnny, you will be missed. Now perhaps your space in the Hall of Fame will be awarded........in our hearts you'll glow.....we love you so.
Jonny Mastrangalo, Little Italy N.Y. Started singing in the subways because he liked the way the echo made his voice sound.
R.I.P to one of the 1st crooners I ever heard. A.M radio late at night pulling signal from halfway around the world. R.I.P my brother.
I can only speak for me but if you graduated in 1979; You can truly say you live in a simpler , gentler time. This was 2 yrs before I got here, but i know someone out there was playing it ;-)
It is sad to hear of Johnny's passing. He and the Crests were a part of a great time in our lives. Hearing 16 Candles brings back some wonderful memories.
I met my girl in 1958 when she turned 16. We will be married 50 years this year (2009) - 16 CANDLES is the number one hit in our 1958 Wurlitzer jukebox.....can anyone beat that....?
Thank you very much !! Our children 43 & 45 and grandchildren (from 3 to 21) are ALL 50's fans and play the jukebox a lot...always starting with 16 Candles.....!!!
This has always been a special song to me. It is the first song that I heard on my radio that I received on my 16th birthday. Oh, the memories that a song can bring back.
On my sixteen birthday, I got this wonderful blue radio as a gift. I set the radio to wake me up the next morning, and this song was the first one that I heard on my radio. Thank you for bringing that memory to light again after so many years. This was always a special song when I was young.
On my sixteenth birthday I got this awesome blue radio for a gift. I set the radio to wake me to music the next morning, and I will always remember that this is the first song that I heard on my new radio. Thanks for again bringing this fond memory to the forefront. These were special days of the best music ever.
i wish some guy would sing this song for me on my sixteenth birthday... :(
