I love to see Helen's face when she realises she gets the lip syncing wrong towards the end of this. She forgets the line is 'Again' and mouths 'With you' easily done. Love this piece of film, glad they left it in.
At 3.19 Helen is seen singing the wrong word. The look on her face says it all. It lasts only for 1 second. A lovely precious moment.
Watches this clip, cries for an hour, goes into depression about the world we live in today.
Achhhh well said.
Then listen to the track again - and cheer up.
formidable archive...
Love that! 🤗😇💖✨
How good this video is!
A amazing piece of archive film. Thanks for putting this up. it's incredible that with such a basic system they produced such wonderful sounds
Yes - only six microphones! (According to the commentary, anyway.)
Great video. Thank you so much for posting this.
The happy years growing up
good god im falling in love with her all over again after fifty years
*60 years
Excellent (y)
как она сильно напоминает лицом эту... джазовую певицу вайнхаус.
I'm amused at how this fantasy view of the music business shows that the promotional photos are being chosen and the poster artwork is being checked supposedly while the song is purportedly still in the process of being recorded!
Surely _some_ of that would have happened?
@@G6JPG Yes, of course promotional photos were taken and then selected to be printed, and the graphics for posters to be displayed at record stores were viewed...but NOT while Helen was literally in the studio recording her hit song! The poster shown at 2:47, headlined with the title of "Walkin' Back To Happiness", could not have already existed before Helen had even recorded it.
Helen Shapiro born again christian
She sings excellently. And it's an excellent song for tempo and dance ~ but ironically suggestive of when one of her people meets their Messiah. And years later Hellen met and learned to love her Messiah ~ who is none other than our Lord Jesus Christ.
lol how different to now
