My first REAL girlfriend was Connie - first date - beautiful Saturday afternoon - high school football game. If I live to be a hundred or more, I'll never forget her or this song!!!

Loved it!!! I danced to this song with a boy named Joe who went to Vietnam and died within the month. It always makes me think of him and that dance!!!

I was really moved by your story and I can only imagine how you feel even today when you hear this song. It´s a beautiful song that touches our hearts and wrings tears from our eyes. It´s lovely when people use the internet for sharing such memories.

It was 1963, The "B" side of Big Girls? not sure. I fell in love with Keven Antubus's older brother; he played this piano tune at our Annual Father Daughter's Night near Christmas. I was 11 years old. This song enchants me. I am now 60 years young, and can still feel like 11!! Wonder what ever happened to Kevin and his brother, the piano player? :)

I loved the story...my husband sends me a song every morning on Facebook and today it was this one. My Name is Connie. I have loved the song since I was a 13 year old girl when it came out and a young boy I "liked" in another town sent me a 45 of the record! I always think of those years long ago and how special it made me feel to have a song with my name sung by someone as awesome as the 4 Seasons. Your story is a beautiful story and I enjoyed it a lot.

God Bless You, Roger.

Here's to being stupid.

Let's all be that kind of stupid.

My name is Connie and I'm 65. I don't remember ever hearing this song until just only about ten years ago! I can't say I'm wild about it. Pretty dull eh? :) LOL

What a touching, beautiful story!!!!! Connie-O is a favoritesong of mine, and this touching story adds to the poignancy of this great hit by the Four Seasons.

I woke up this morning with this song on my mind.... Don't know why it happens, but it does sometimes. I was nine when this song came out, and I remember my older sister playing in on her record player over and over. I'm so glad I heard your story; it reaffirms my faith in mankind. I even forgive you for making me cry!
