    The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

    Let's hear it for Bobby Dion!
    Seriously though, it's fascinating to watch Dion try a song like this, rather than one of his big hits.
    The song's a challenge and he sings it very well.

    I'm a big fan of Dion's! His one and only appearance on the Sullivan show is somewhat infamous. He sang two songs, "It Ain't Necessarily So" and "Lover Come Back to Me". Dion himself has stated that this was a mistake and that he should have sung his biggest hits instead; "Runaround Sue" and "The Wanderer" but under the advice of others, he was told to "advance" his career and image by singing adult standards, a la Bobby Darin.
    "Lover Come Back to Me" is from the operetta, "New Moon" and a lot of singers liked recording fast-tempo versions of this standard in the '60's. Dion does a decent job, but I do agree that he should have sung his popular records. Thanks for uploading this curio of an appearance!

      @MostlyBrenda Місяць тому +5

      Yes, this is Dion trying to be someone else. Later on, he tried the Bob Dylan/folk route and had a hit with Abraham, Martin and John, but not much beyond. There followed drug addiction problems. His bio book from the 80s is hard to find but a worthwhile read.

      @@jadezee6316 Regardless of opinion, I'm relating a factual anecdote. It is a fact that Dion himself thought he made a mistake by singing standards on the show instead of his hits. He has gone on record saying so, and many of his fans also agree that it was ultimately a wasted opportunity in retrospect. If you do some research, as I wrote originally, you will find that Dion did not choose the songs he sang on this episode; he was pressured into singing them by others who thought it would be good for his career.

    The song was written in 1928 by Sigmund Romberg with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein. Barbra Streisand recorded it the same year as Dion’s performance.

    Omg, my all-time favorite male singer, and he was made to sing an old standard, as if he were Bobby Darin, instead of being allowed to sing one of his hits, either with the Belmonts, or his singles with the Del Satins backing him up! Dion and the Belmonts even recorded a standard, "Where or When", which was one of their first hits! What a wasted appearance! But, it's always great to see Dion singing, especially without a hat!

      you have no clue what you are talking about..first of all this song is far better than any hit Dion has ever had...sung by the likes of Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald to name just a couple of great singers that recorded it....and my bet is HE was the one who chose it....

    You went away
    I let you
    We broke the ties that bind
    I wanted to forget you
    And leave the past behind
    Still, the magic of the night I met you
    Seems to stay forever in my mind
    The sky was blue
    And high above
    The moon was new
    And so was love
    This eager heart of mine was singing
    Lover where can you be
    You came at last
    Love had its day
    That day is past
    You've gone away
    This aching heart of mine is singing
    Lover come back to me
    When I remember every little thing
    You used to do
    I'm so lonely
    Every road I walk along
    I walk along with you
    No wonder I am lonely
    The sky is blue
    The night is cold
    The moon is new
    But love is old
    And while I'm waiting here
    This heart of mine is singing
    Lover come back to me
    When I remember every little thing
    You used to do
    I grow lonely
    Every road I walk along
    I walk along with you
    No wonder I am lonely
    The sky is blue
    The night is cold
    The moon is new
    But love is old
    And while I'm waiting here
    This heart of mine is singing
    Lover come back to me

    This song may have appealed to an older audience in Las Vegas. “Run Around Sue” appealed to young people who bought records and that’s what he should have sung.

    Instead of singing to/for the young people who bought his records, Dion is trying to appeal to the adult audience. Like Paul Anka and Bobby Darin, Dion felt he had to move beyond rock and roll to enjoy a long career in music.
