Re: Perry Como

My Mother liked 'Her Frankie' so that doomed him as far as I was concerned.

AO and Tiffany...What about the Dave Clark Five. Glad all over was great for stamping on the dance floor

Re: Perry Como

That goes without saying. Prolly why I never liked him either.


DC5 were too much noise, not enough rhythm for me. I was more of a Chad & Jeremy .... Peter & Gordon sort of fellow.

Re: Perry Como

I liked most of the 50's/60's & 70's music.

Re: Perry Como

I went for the drum beats and guitar riffs. Cliff and Elvis left me stone cold . I know ..unbelievable

Re: Perry Como

Chad and Jeremy...now that is a blast from the past. So lovely and I'm all overcome

Re: Perry Como

Cliff ! Gives me the heebie jeebies

Re: Perry Como

Oh good! you liked them too! I was a romantic sort. Still am. I'm guessing you figured that out already.

Re: Perry Como

In my teens I already had plans to travel so managed to stay footloose and fancy free. The only one who stole my heart at that time was John Leyton and I still get all overcome when I hear Johnny remember me.

Words to songs were so simple and memorable then. Non of having to explain every word and meaning as they do today cos we all knew and understood what they meant.

My theme tune should have been Sealed with a kiss.

Re: Perry Como

I loved that song when it was current.

Re: Perry Como

Oh yes! There was a time ...... Brian Hyland, Neil Sedaka, Gene Pitney, Bobby Vee, Bobby Darin, Paul Anka, Johhny Tillotson, Cliff Richard, Sam Cooke, Bobby Vinton, Pat Boone, Ricky Nelson, Everly Brothers ... caused a young lad like me to become exceedingly romantic. I was very popular with the girls back then!
