The Reflections all hailed from the Redford, Livonia, Michigan area? The same area that the Shades Of Blue are from! Great oldie classic from the 60's I love this music.
Love this song first heard it going 80 miles an hour in a 1957 Pylmouth convertable going to the tropical treat in Stowe Pa from Gino's in Pottstown Pa back in the day the guy driving and his girls favorite song.
Our love's gonna be written down in history A-Just like Romeo and Juliet I'm gonna buy her pretty presents Just like the ones in a catalog Gonna show (gonna show) how much I love Let her know (let her know) one way or the other Our love's gonna be written down in history Ah, all right, now, I'm speculatin' Wonder what tomorrow's gonna really bring If I don't (if I don't) find work tomorrow It's gonna be (gonna be) heartaches 'n' sorrow Our love's gonna be destroyed like a tragedy
@ezramead This was before "go go girls." Listen to the music and get over the fashion, fool. This song represents a lost time in pop music where desire, a killer melody, big beat and a great arrangement could take you to the top. Classic 60s pop like "Time Won't Let Me" by the Outsiders, "Hot Fun in the Summertime" by Sly and the Family Stone, "California Girls" by the Beach Boys and "Temptation Eyes" by the Grass Roots (and many others) are AMAZING 3-minute sonic gems.
Awesome song. One of my all-time favorites. The only thing I'd like to hear is a remix/reissue that brings the organ track a little more to the front.
Reflections are cool! Great to find all this great music on you tube. I'm a soul/blues singer from Australia. Check out my chanel, I have songs such as Sam Cooke's "A change is Gona come." and Hope you enjoy what I do.
@LSH20101 Lol - haven't got all the nuances down about how I can comment without attaching myself to someone else's comments, but you are right, this is a straightforward no excuses blast of talent that will never have to apologize for itself.
Out of sight! I was 13 going on 14, in the eighth grade and living in Hawaii when this song was on the charts! I enjoyed listening to it on KPOI, KORL and KUMU radio staions back then! The age of innocence and the teen years! Woo hoo!
Some fans thought this was a bit to "Bubblegum" for their taste. Me? I just see a full floor in the 70's where we played it in the Midlands. Always happy, always requested. ALWAYS played. And "Adam and Eve". Anyone out there looking for a time travel guinea pig? Email me son, I'm your man.
It's a fun song, but it also points out that a relationship can't survive on love alone. I've known relationships that broke up because of financial problems.
dorky; yeah...all big feet, knock knees, braces pimples...Hai Karate on the adam's apple - dancin' with a girl and feelin' like a million bucks! sigh...........
This tune peaked at Number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 in June of 1964 - it was such a huge single in Detroit, Berry Gordy, founder of Motown Records, sought to buy up the Golden World/Ric-Tic/Wingate record franchises (but not most of its artists)-
Spring '64, during the Beatles invasion, a small classic, from Detroit Doo-Wop at it's best. I loved this one & never, ever tired of it. Wolfsky9, 64 y/o.
what a fantastic song and vocal group. now this is music. songs back in the 50-60's were peaceful, fun, simple and has a messege to it. with today era of music, its all the same and there's no need to put drugs or swears into songs. i love the oldies songs and i wish people who can sing, will start making songs like these today.
Greta song, I first heard this on WHNE in1974. Then I heard Sha Na Na sing it on their synacated TV show. Later I saw Sha Na Na at Pine Knob in Clakston, Mich.
Jersey Shore '65...my uncle Andy had Shore Bar, it's still there in Highlands below the lighthouse, this song was playing on the radio in our family '59 Chevy Brookwood as we went down to visit, had a great time on the beach, I remember the sand was very hot that bright day. Later we sat at the bar and had cherry cokes and beer nuts, no "PC Police" back then to kick the kids out of the tavern. Great times!
Summer 1964 WABC Radio skipped to Blackstone Va at nite. This song on the car radio at the Grove Drive IN make out partys. What a great memory. Billy Robertson Covington La now a little older
I wonder why ppl always compare musical genres, just enjoy the music. I listen to Bach, Mozart , Opera and I never compare it to 60s or 70s music, for the simple fact that it is different . I love Motown and 80 dance tunes, Reggae, Calypso, Salsa and on and on. Even kids banging on pot covers is music to my ears. Every era has their own sound and there is always good music to be found no matter what year it is. Enjoy the music stop comparing!!
This music is pure joy.I remember walking around and singing this song to myself. I remember singing lots of the songs from this time to myself. I remember singing this and lots of songs from this time with my friends. I don't think I have ever heard or seen any kid walking around singing Rap or Hip-Hop alone or with friends. Kinda sad, ya know?
This song had to compete with The Beatles; 6 monthsearlier, & it would have been a zillion seller! An all-time classic, from a simpler, better time. I know: I was there. Wolfsky9, 63 y/o.
Kinda describes today....doesn't it?...except for the drive-in (RIP) too bad, the good ole' days were the greatest, with the greatest of tunes ever...no lie...todays music is just fine for the youth of today , just not me....lovin' them oldies
maverick1956hk thanks im with you. you call todays music NOISE> I got better words but youre on my side. i know where youre coming from. RAP oh i wont commrnt. this is a great song. i been condemned by younger yung without mercy for defence of these old songs. Too bad. THEYRE GREAT no plugfor Tony the tiger Folks. TOMKES doo wop rocknroll historian . i know my music
ROMEO & JULIET with the Reflections simple yet powerful. this doo wop/rocknroll historian approves. i wish we had more greats like this. look at the songs we got today. thanks guys. TOMK
Racked my brain for 10 mins to recall band name so I could search and find this video! Thx! Rock On Rolla! My kid sister married an engineer grad student she met there at a dance in the 70's.
The problem here is: music changes to suit the generation that creates it. So just because music after The Beatles (God rest John and George), wasn't (in your OPINION) as good as it was before and during, doesn't mean that that's true. Try to open your mind up a little, you'd be less miserable that way.
This song came out while I was in college, and I thought it was really great, although it was hard to tell over low quality AM car radio. I really appreciate the picture of the group - I never knew what they looked like.
Hearing this reminds me of being a kid and watchjing my big brother leave to the Marines and then Vietnam. Wow, what a clear memory. I miss my brother. He loved this song. What great days those were. Los Angeles was nice back then.
The Reflections achieved success purely on the strength of their well-crafted harmonies and cool professionalism.
It's no wonder that four decades later The Reflections are still heralded as one of the finest vocal groups of The Sixties Pop and Doo-Wop Music Era.They are still performing today to sell out shows and standing ovations throughout The U.S.A. and Canada.
The Reflections' name hangs proudly on the wall of the Cleveland Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame. Joey Finazzo
15 over here, I aree with both of you. It's not like it's just older people saying "arg music these days," a lot of TEENAGERS hate the current music too. Well, to hell with that. I'm becoming a jazz musician! :P
@Machine66441 What? So wrong. You just have to look harder now. Mainstream music has been terrible ever since disco hit, and you've pretty much had to go underground to some extent to find good music since them. The '90s and the whole (truly quality) alternative rock/grunge movement brought good music back to the mainstream for a while, back when MTV was actually worth a damn. But that all went south in the late '90s when boy bands and pop got huge. Pretty depressing , honestly.
Incredible song! And... written by an african american!! And what a great lead and backing vocals! Remembering 1964 is great because of this record I cherish.
Inexplicably difficult to find this one lately...a magnificent song, just post doo-wop, but the roots come through nice and clear...thanks for preserving a classic track
Boy this brings back memories of school Disco - norther soul was much on the scene and this was always played..ME in my circle skirt and ankle socks and pumps dancing..oh it was fantastic!!!
vynilistic- could not agree with you more, i remember dancing to this aged 15 at the royal well disco Cheltenham 1975, if only i knew then what i know now, still great to hear the songs again (like listening to history)

This song came out while I was in college, and I thought it was really great, although it was hard to tell over low quality AM car radio. I really appreciate the picture of the group - I never knew what they looked like.

Hearing this reminds me of being a kid and watchjing my big brother leave to the Marines and then Vietnam. Wow, what a clear memory. I miss my brother. He loved this song. What great days those were. Los Angeles was nice back then.

I thought it was "I'm gonna put Romeo's face right smack dab on the deed" re: a house/home?

The Reflections achieved success purely on the strength of their well-crafted harmonies and cool professionalism.
It's no wonder that four decades later The Reflections are still heralded as one of the finest vocal groups of The Sixties Pop and Doo-Wop Music Era.They are still performing today to sell out shows and standing ovations throughout The U.S.A. and Canada.
The Reflections' name hangs proudly on the wall of the Cleveland Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame. Joey Finazzo

Good taste!! For me, music hit rock bottom in 1985. But I like retro too; GREAT music died in the 70s for the most part unfortunately. 29 here;)

15 over here, I aree with both of you. It's not like it's just older people saying "arg music these days," a lot of TEENAGERS hate the current music too. Well, to hell with that. I'm becoming a jazz musician! :P

@Machine66441 Actually music became very conservative suddenly in 1985, starting to mimic music from the 50s and early 60s.

@Machine66441 What? So wrong. You just have to look harder now. Mainstream music has been terrible ever since disco hit, and you've pretty much had to go underground to some extent to find good music since them. The '90s and the whole (truly quality) alternative rock/grunge movement brought good music back to the mainstream for a while, back when MTV was actually worth a damn. But that all went south in the late '90s when boy bands and pop got huge. Pretty depressing , honestly.

And the truth about the song was that these guys all hated it and goofed around recording it.

Incredible song! And... written by an african american!! And what a great lead and backing vocals! Remembering 1964 is great because of this record I cherish.

Inexplicably difficult to find this one lately...a magnificent song, just post doo-wop, but the roots come through nice and clear...thanks for preserving a classic track
