    I had been out of high school almost two years and had my whole life in front of me. I look back and wonder how did it all go by so fast. This is a typical song of that time. You never know how good you actually had it until it's all behind you.

    Dick and DeeDee had great voices and wonderful smiles. The high falsetto voice of Dick in combination with DeeDee's trilling soprano voice was unique. Lou Christie, Frankie Valli and Gene Pitney we're doing similar vocals on their recordings at the same time.

      She did no high singing AT ALL.
      That falsetto "trilling" was Dick over dubbed on his natural voice.

      Yeah you took the words right out of my mouth, I feel sorry for the younger generation nowadays they missed out on the Creative Renaissance of our youth we knew as the 60s, The only sad thing is we're dropping like flies…

      +Marrowbones I had a radio show for 12 years. Other than that, what can we do about it? Thank God for UA-cam to help spread the word! My daughter discovered 60s music pretty much on her own. when younger people discover older music, they're amazed that such music even exist, because they don't hear it on the radio, for example. The music then sounds like a symphony compared to the music out now, just check out the top 10 for almost any date before 1980 and it's completely different then modern stuff. I suggest starting your own educational shows or resources finding ways to expose it, I always wanted to start my own TV channel, and I actually met someone who was interested in funding it, ages ago. Any ideas? Today's technology should offer lots more resources/exposure.

    Dee Dee, NRRArchives found it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this song as kid and I love it now... 1961 I believe #2 on the billboard charts. I seem to love songs with mountain themes to them . Over the mountain, across the sea. By the great Johnny and Joe 1956. That is my 1# mountains song this one is #2. And Ain't no mountain high enough by Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell 1967. My #3 favorite. I'm so glad NRR found this rare footage thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I love to see the artist perform their song. Thanks Dick and Dee!

      Amasing points. Those are MONUMENTAL songs. The end of this song knocks me out

      Deana: You're absolutely correct that it is a treasure to be able to see the performers while they sing. Back then if you didn't see it when it was first broadcast you didn't have much of a chance to see the artists again unless they had another great single.
      Ahhh, the miracles of movies and video tape.
      And BTW, Deana, you're as cute as a button yourself (that's a compliment, 1960's style).

    Awesome: #2 US Billboard hit in 1961 and #17 in 1965 respectively. They did record with and open concerts for Mick Jagger/Keith Richards' The Strolling Bones from England to California.

    Just heard this song on some old timer radio station. I like the hook! I always like the fact that it's an interracial audience. Shout out to Dick Clark

    I just saw a short clip of Dick and Dee Dee singing this song on a top100 songs of 1961. I was only 10 that year and I remember it well along with almost all the other songs on that list. Had to come find this video so I could once again fall in love with it - and Dick and Dee Dee of course. Thumps up!

    As stated above on this day in 1964 {November 14th} Dick & DeeDee performed "The Mountain's High" on the ABC-TV program 'American Bandstand'...
    Three years earlier on September 25th, 1961 the song peaked at #2* {for 2 weeks} on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart...
    On the same 'Bandstand' show the duo also performed "Thou Shalt Not Steal"; and the very next day it entered the Top 100 at position #94, then on January 10th, 1965 it peaked at #13 {for 2 weeks} and also spent 13 weeks on the Top 100...
    Dick St. John passed away on December 27th, 2003 at the age of 63 {an accidental fall]...
    * The two weeks "The Mountain's High" was at #2, the #1 record for both those weeks was "Take Good Care of My Baby" by Bobby Vee...

    Yeah! the 60's I was a kid growing up during this time. It was fun watching the groups on ABC, Shindig, Hullabaloo, Hollywood Palace, Ed Sullivan. All of these shows are gone. This was the style during that time and the clothes was still conservative but decent looking. Music has evolved and look what we got today.............

    They had a unique sound during the early 60's and I still enjoy listening. This UA-cam video is much easier to reference than placing my old 33 1/3 record album on the turntable / (Go

    Great song with knock you out singing and martial drum rolls galore. Dick sang the highest and lowest parts including the falsetto, and Dee Dee sang the middle notes.

    I haven't listened to them before, but it kind of feels like I've heard their songs in a past life.. if you believe in that sort of thing..
