Por el amor a la humanidad,que alguien detenga la vejez para no seguir perdiendo esta clase de astros musicales.

Como me hubiera gustado haber nacido en esa epoca de los grandes y no vivir en esta era de mierda donde lo comercial y bandas que no saben nada de lo que es la musica existen

The Diamonds were reunited for the show and did "Little Darlin'". But the highlight came when Diamond's lead singer Dave Sommerville invited the original writer/singer of the song, Maurice Williams, who was also on the show, to sing a chorus of the song with them. It was pure "Rock n' Roll" History ! Luckily I video taped this historic moment, and it is a sheer joy to watch these consumate professionals 'duo' on one of the most-played-all-time classics of rock!

Algumas boas histórias sobre a canção, registradas no site "Songfact": The Diamonds had finished a recording session but had 15 minutes of time left in the studio rental. Someone ran out and brought in a demo of Little Darlin. They practiced it and recorded in in 15 minutes. Since some of the musicians had already left....there is no drummer on the song!

Sua notícia é má (ou mala) porque não é verdadeira. Little Darlin' foi gravada pelos Diamonds, não pirateada. A banda canadense fez uma versão, apenas isso. A autoria é de Maurice Williams, dos Gladiolas, que falava inglês sem problemas (todos da banda estudaram em Lancaster, South Carolina). Mas a música é a mesma, que também foi gravada por Elvis Presley e pelo grupo Sha Na Na (que tocou em Woodstock).

特に　台詞が　歌そのものの例は　あまり記憶が　ありません　。

私は　この時の　diamonds の方　が　好きです　。

Te tengo una mala noticia, la canción se la piratearon a un grupo llamado "The Gladiolas" a los que parodeaban (se pitorreaban) por ser negros y no hablar bien inglés, busca aquí " Little Darlin'/The Gladiolas "
