@Strawberry7Lynn I'm 13 and love this music :D !

This song has been covered by EVERYBODY, I think, but nobody ever surpassed Buddy's version. FYI, Buddy was COVERING this song, which was originally recorded by the author, Sonny West, who was another West Texas songwriter. Sonny West wrote and recorded both "Rave On" and "Oh Boy" on the Atlantic label, but his versions never rocked (or charted). When Buddy Holly covered these songs, they DEFINED a new era of Rock & Roll. Jesus, if Buddy had lived, music would be TOTALLY different today.

Nothing beats Buddy Holly's version of the song.
It's a masterpiece!

This music is fun music. This music is GOOD. This isn't the crap you hear on the radio about sex drugs and alcohol, this is music meant to be just fun. And they accomplished that. When I look at myself, 13, and other people on youtube who are around my age, my hopes rise a bit that the country isn't entirely "corrupted". Modern artists are sending horrible messages for American children and teenagers.

@tyla140 Call me cynical, but there are millions of comments on millions of videos just like this, crying out for attention and "likes" because "i'm 13 and i love this music!". We know it's great music, you're not the savior of anybody's generation, your age doesn't make you special, shhhhh.

A Monarch capable of playing 16's !!! That's just awesome. My parents had a Marantz that died about 5 years ago, but they kept off the records, 16, 33 1/3, 45's and 78's. But I have no way of playing the 16's and 78's Thank you so much for posting!!
