Though I was born a few years later....I grew up hearing this music. The 1960's from tip to tail were an amazing time in history and music is extraordinarily amazing.... Always a pleasure to listen to 1963 🤗
I was 13 ...beautiful memories that will stay with me forever. I'm just sad my my first n only love no longer around to share it with me❤ RIP my dearest husband. Love never dies.
Oh, man I’m having an attack of nostalgia while reading all of these wonderful comments! I’m a boomer...being 14 in 1963. The best music and best of times ever to be young and alive in America. Would love to have those years back. 🥰
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
Being 73 now....this takes me back in time that brings great memories and wonderful thankfulness of having this true music like none other, nor ever will be again.
I'm 80 but listening to these songs makes me feel like I'm getting ready for my first date. These songs were the background music while I was growing up and I wouldn't change a thing. Enjoy your memories.
Seeing Andy Williams sing brought tears to my eyes. I was blessed to see his last Christmas show in Branson my wife was able to get us Tickets. At the end of the show he said he was taking a leave to fight his prostate cancer he passed a few months later. 😢 what a voice
I was 16 in 1963. My old high school friends and I email each other and agree that we were exceptionally blessed to grow up during these times. I don’t know about anybody else, but these kids look like babies to me!
I think that we were expected to "grow up" much faster than today's kids. I can remember being told at 16 to give serious thought to what I wanted to do, go to college or whatever. Always followed by you'll be an adult sooner than you think. Junior and senior year in high school we were constantly told we'd be adults soon and talks about making decisions for the future. After high school you either went on to further schooling or you were expected to get a job. No ifs, ands, or buts about it! If you went to work it was expected that you turn over a portion of your earnings to your parents. It may only have been 10 or 20 percent but you were expected to pay your way. In general boys moved out while lots of girls stayed in the family home until marriage. Nowadays they give prizes for "participation" and kids live at home a whole lot longer. I'm sure a lot of that has to do with the economy and lack of jobs that pay a living wage, however these kids aren't prepared to be grown ups as quickly as we were. We had jobs at 16 and were paying "rent" as long as we were working. We were expected to do school and a job if we wanted pocket money after we turned 16. We were taught "there's no free lunch" most of our lives. If you could get a job babysitting, doing chores, mowing lawns, shoveling snow, etc. before you got your working papers at 16 you did. Most of us wanted to work and have our own money. Kids today have it way too easy. And the music, with exceptions, is pretty awful! I could appreciate some of my parents music but today's music I just want to turn it off.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
I'm 75 now and consider myself lucky to have been a teen and young adult during those years. The music was fantastic, and we actually learned the three 'Rs' and much more in school. I also met my husband in 1960, and we married in 1966. Fifty-five years married and still having a wonderful time.
Well, Norbert, the Vietnam War and the draft was on everyone's mind . It wasn't so lucky for my husband and my brother, and it was downright tragic for many friends and relatives: injuries, PTSD, and some paid the ultimate price. These young men, along with female nurses who enlisted, proudly did their duty and I am forever grateful. At my age, it's best to look at all the positive things of life and keep the precious memories, no matter how joyful, or sorrowful, intact.
@@kathryngrove-dewitt1631: Not only were the lives of those who were inducted into military service ruined, but many who were of military age but somehow escaped getting drafted could not get decent credit, buy a house or even a car, or get a decent job. This is because lenders and employers were correctly concerned that young men could be conscripted at any time, and their investment in these people could be destroyed!
It was difficult as far as wars went, and there is always something going on in the world!!! My dad served in WW2, and that was difficult for him as he lost many friends!!! Now we have Covid!!!
I was 10 years old in 63', and I still listen to songs of the 60s and 70s today. This was music you could actually understand and appreciate. This kind of music will never come around again.

@@donnapickard4701 Lucky girl! It must be so great. Congrats! But I’m lucky too. I went to 4 Paul’s Concerts 3 there in the very first rows. Miami, Dublin, Sao Paulo2x. I also proud to have a vinil record The Fireman autographed by Sir James Paul McCartney got by my son in London. Also a Ringo Star concert in Sweden. They’re getting better and better all the time... better better better so much better all the time... They’ll never stop. Greetings from Sao Paulo! João
I'll be 74 soon and 1960 through 1969 were amazing years! Go back and watch American Graffiti and get a small sample of life in that era. The trailer asks "Where were you in 62?" Me? Starting high school and meeting my BFF, may she rest in peace. We were shy girls, but together we were a bit adventurous and bolstered each other's dreams. Because of my friend I became the first girl to be allowed into the Industrial Drawing class. I wasn't trying to prove anything I just like math and drawing. Lol Anyway, check out the movie if only cuz Harrison Ford is in it! 😉
I remember all these as I was about 10 and very much into pop music...I used to do my chores with the radio on loud on weekends...all the charts were played over and over.. me singing along while dusting and vacuuming 😜👍 yep, kids had chores in those years and we better did them without any complaints. Crazy times 🥰👍😆😅😆
You realize that people were saying the exact same thing in the fifties about the music of the beginning of the century and that others will say the same in 30 years about music that is not yet released! Your comment is just you getting old. It’s not that I disagree or not with you, it’s just so cliché!
I remember these songs on the radio in the early 60's and I am not on drawing a pension nor am I retired. I also remember where I was on Nov 22 1963. Thats the day it all changed and we never went back.
I was 13 years old and surrounded by the greatest music ever. The best was yet to come in the rest of the sixties What a great time to be a teenager. Awesome
Great until you finished high school and got your draft notice. I wish I had never registered with the local draft board. I have seen many of my peers who were never called. I suspect that they never registered. I certainly wish I never had!
@@norbertsiewert3917 Nothing like reminiscing. But there's no such thing as the greatest music ever. That's a subjective statement, and only applies to you. That said, I love the music from the sixties. Many classics from that era, that also bring back memories to me. Music, is very much so mnemonic.
It is impossible to explain the feelings these Old songs bring up. We were lucky to be here to experience the good times🥰I would not have missed a second!
If you didn’t live through it you’ll never know just how good it was. A wonderful time to be young, and we all agree it was too. I’m so thankful that I was born in 1946 and grew up precisely at the right time. There’s absolutely nothing enjoyable in today’s popular music for me, poor kids of these days not having a genuine good time like we did.
Lol, I would have to agree. I was born in 55, and wish I was born in 45 cuz that way I would have been 20 years old in 1965, and able to really live through the 60s
A wonderful time to be young, unless you were a male, in the United States, healthy but poor, and had no connections. You were sure to be conscripted into military service!
I had a transistor radio stuck to my head all the time. I even got caught at school listening to a crystal radio that had the ear phone run up my sleeve. LOVED IT!
that's right......... i was born in 73 and even i remember mono sound and that single skin coloured ear phone with that twisted white cable that ran up your sleeve or in my case, it was a walkman but in the early 70s it was a transistor radio with a black leather case with holes for the speakers and i'd put the wire from the radio which sat in my pocket up my back , under my shirt and out the head hole in my shirt into my ear it felt like nothing was there but i was wired for sound LOL even used to go to the roller rink and feel like cliff richard
Man how I miss the 60s. I was 12 years old when the Beatles hit America and went straight from country music to rock and roll overnight period went through the hippie stage and man what a life that was. Now I'm 69
Yep great times and the Beatles taught me to sing. Great harmonies. Al quality in that era great music with great lyrics. Now I’m 64 so we are very much of the same era.
I was 19 then and I only can remember Blowin'n in the Wind, Sukiyaky, The rhythm of the rain and Surf'USA. I'm from Spain and here the songs weren't so popular.
75 years old now, single for the past 24 years, go off walking alone each day, water bottle , AirPods, mobile phone with my music. Mostly 60s and70s music , still have the values of my parents and don’t apologise to anyone for those principles that have seen me through some tough times. Let’s bring them back, let’s not apologise for them.
I graduated from high school in 1962 and remember these songs like it was just yesterday. I guess it's safe to say it was a much more 'innocent' and gentle time - but.... things were getting ready to EXPLODE. Literally! Thanks for the memories!✌
What memories. I brought the 45 of Puff the Magic Dragon for my younger brother and sister because they loved it so much. They are both dead now, and I miss them heaps.
I loved our music from the 60's.you could understand every word, didn't need all that noise behind the great singers. Loved our Era. No filth & fowl. Sally&Neil 😊
I will never forget the first time I heard Stevie Wonder play fingertips - I was 14 picking berries in the summer sun with my transistor radio. What a happy time. Those who were born later missed the best years our nation has ever had.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
Our music was our stress relief from all the problems back then. Today, we don’t have this great music from all of the stress from politics and Covid. We shouldn’t turn on one another, so sad.
I was 5 when these songs can out and I was hip...sisters & brothers a good bit older so teenagers of the day got stuck with me a lot. Hence, I still know the words to all the songs that have words. Some great music this year!
Time goes by so quickly as we get older....The 60s seems like just yesterday, I can remember the days back then clearly, but dont ask me what I ate for supper last night...Granny glasses and bell bottoms, shoulder length hair tye dye t shirts, those sure were the days.
I saw him live at Michigan State Fair in Detroit in 1963. Afternoon , very small crowd . Playing his harmonica, Little Stevie Wonder. I was 16 and hitchhiked to the Fair Grounds with a friend from the eastside of Detroit. I am 74 now.
Yep...and this was just less than 10 years after the Vatican had been taken over by the Freemasons in 1958, and everything started to turn to custard!😨
Born in 1950, witnessed the birth of rock and roll, raw, dirty, gritty. Elvis made it mainstream. John Lennon stated "before Elvis there was nothing". One billion records later still the King!
born in early 60's' so as a kid i didn't really catch on to this music till the 70's..But compared to todays music you cant beat these memorable classics.
I was born in '63, listening to these few tunes here on this video, I feel as if I remember myself bee bopping in the backseat of the family car to these same tunes...
I am from the Philippines and I'm now 74 years. In 1963, I was just 16 years old and I am quite familiar with these iconic songs performed by such great singers. Just nice to tread down memory lane.
@@KathleenMcCormickLCSWMPH I think you are probably right. According to Google the first mini skirt came out in 1964 and just kept on getting shorter. Not that I minded at the time!! Lol 😆
It's fun to look back but I wouldn't want to go back. I'll take the here and now of the information age. We have our problems, but they don't seem as insurmountable as they did then.
My husband and I are in our 60s and the music of the 50s, 60s and 70s are our favorite. Songs were hard to find on tape and the radio these days...until my husband installed Alexa. Now when I am in the kitchen I tell Alexa to play ANY song of these years and the memories it brings tears up my eyes because life was far better than it is now. I feel young again and reminisce growing up. Gosh I miss those days.
The sixties would have been great for me, but I had the draft hanging over my head. I dodged the draft for 1.5 years after graduation from high school. I failed. Got drafted and ended up going to Vietnam, as had thousands of other boys from my generation. Think of all the dead and ruined lives!
As an apprentice audio engineer in the 60's I lived, loved, recorded all music...then as a DJ in the 80's played it all again...now in twilight years thanks to you kind people who take the time and trouble to bring this music to us oldies...THANK YOU.
I was a bit too young to remember these from '63, but in the years since, I fell in love with the 60s. But looking at those hairdoos, oh Wow. Thanks for these.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
1963 - -- what a year in music. The great Lesley Gore, the only singer with two songs on the list. Many other greats -- Beach Boys, Chiffons, Bobby Vinton, so many memories of my sixth grade year.
Thank goodness we have youtube and folks like the one that has compiled these videos and songs so that us older people can reflect on them and the younger generations can enjoy something very amazing they may have otherwise missed out on.

So again thanks to youtube and the people who put these videos together so that these amazing artists will not be forgotten.
@@pixiestyx1766 I`m a german DJ. 74 years old. I started collecting records in 1963. I could sing a lot of hits in that time like Sealed With A Kiss - or Blue Bayou or The Night has a thousand eyes and more. I still worked as DJ for nearly 50 years. In 2010 I worked in a club in Mannheim called CAFÉ BLAU. A Punk Club (I loved Punk in that time) but I never could imagine that some people could sing Punk-Songs like we did Blue Bayou. But I was wrong. Once I played NEAT NEAT NEAT of the Damned, I hardly understand what the Damned are singing, but half of the guests are singing that song !! Really ! Try to listen to that song on UA-cam than you know what I mean. Okay, I more love to to sing The End Of The World of Skeeter ! Thank you americans for your fantastic Pop Music of the last 50 years (1950 - 2000) !!
Oh, boy…memories. I performed Puff, The Magic Dragon at the spring assembly of my elementary school. It was 1963. I was eleven. That song remains a favorite to this day (2021).
True talent, no profanity, actually wearing clothes, no autotune,no pyrotechnics just incredible music….anyone else want to build a time machine?
I see it that way too!
OHH, SHIT YEAH ....IM IN MATE ... BOOK ME IN ... LETS GO .. YEEE,,HAAHHAA... .. UP IT ...
Word!
Though I was born a few years later....I grew up hearing this music. The 1960's from tip to tail were an amazing time in history and music is extraordinarily amazing.... Always a pleasure to listen to 1963 🤗
I'm in.
I was 13 ...beautiful memories that will stay with me forever. I'm just sad my my first n only love no longer around to share it with me❤ RIP my dearest husband. Love never dies.

RIP Kyu Sakamoto. No one can touch your song but you, sweet man.
Hey how are you doing?😊
'48 here. Gratefull to have grown up when i did with all the good music. Thank you for sharing.
Oh, man I’m having an attack of nostalgia while reading all of these wonderful comments! I’m a boomer...being 14 in 1963. The best music and best of times ever to be young and alive in America. Would love to have those years back. 🥰
Hello Peggy. How are you doing?
Me too!!!😢😢
Great old songs that shows respect and good mannerism, and makes the heart feel young again 💖😊👍
Hello how are you doing?😊😅
How are you doing???
What you mean feel young again?

Hello, how are you doing today and the entire family and friends doing today i really enjoy this song.???
Perfect explanation. 👍
How are you doing???
Anyway I can stand totally naked woman not sure about the flashing lights
I was born in 1946 and I don't understand today's music, it's just acting, no rhythm, no singing voice.
Thank you... I was married in 1963 .... what wonderful memories.... 60 years later and he is still the love of my life..... yay 🍬...
I grew up with this music I’m 73 and I still love it nothing like today’s music
❤❤❤ hello 👋 how are you doing Gladys
I'm very happy to meet you here so you are welcome ❤❤❤ and if you don't mind can we be friends?
bonjour Gladys j ai 74 ans j aime toujours autant cette musique c'était une très belle époque Claude progni
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
I am 72, and I remember every one of these. I can understand every word they say. My late husband loved these songs. I wish he was still here
@@RissaFirecat How are you doing today pretty?
I was born in 1945. The music in our younger years was beautiful. It will never fade away.
I. Was also born in 1945 I also love this music,but I also love the music of my then teen sons the 80s
@Hello Albert how are you doing
@Hello Albert how are you doing
I was also born in 45, birthday in a couple days. Graduation, boot camp, "A" school. I remember "Chantilly Lace" from about that time.
Born in 1945 also
Being 73 now....this takes me back in time that brings great memories and wonderful thankfulness of having this true music like none other, nor ever will be again.
Best music ever I'm 69
Hello, how are you doing today and the entire family and friends doing today i really enjoy this song...
I was 23 and this is still my music today at 81.
Hey, Patsy. I was 15 and it is still my music at 74 - I even play in a little weekend oldies band! Keep on rockin', sister, keep on rockin'.
Well never mind !
Keep on trucking lady!
I'm 80 but listening to these songs makes me feel like I'm getting ready for my first date. These songs were the background music while I was growing up and I wouldn't change a thing. Enjoy your memories.
PATSEY..I am your age, and agree those were the best years of my life despite Vietnam and the onset of drugs...
I was 10 years old that Summer. What music. A great time to grow up. The rest of the 60's were to follow. Totally awesome.😊
So was i .Its a small World .lol
I was born Dec. 62. These songs are instilled in my DNA, I think. Wholesome goodness. 😊
Hello how are you doing?😊
Seeing Andy Williams sing brought tears to my eyes. I was blessed to see his last Christmas show in Branson my wife was able to get us Tickets. At the end of the show he said he was taking a leave to fight his prostate cancer he passed a few months later. 😢 what a voice
Oh I I didn't know how he died. So sad.
@@triciac1019 lhow.sad
Amazing. They all look washed dressed clothes that Havnt come out the dustbin and great great voices. Yes I'm old and proud of it.
Hello Jacquie. How are you doing?
Only those of our 60s generation will truly know the magic of these songs! I'm 68 now and still live by 60s music, memories and even tears....
Street dances ! 68 also
Absolutely and same here!
Bue,Navy Blue I'm as blue as I can be...People were just starting to enlist because of that place called Vietnam.
Nothing will ever replace those times.
“Tears”, yes. “So Much In Love” by the Tymes still makes me bawl like a baby.
Music and cars will never be more memorable. I was blessed to graduate from high school in 1963😊
I was 16 in 1963. My old high school friends and I email each other and agree that we were exceptionally blessed to grow up during these times. I don’t know about anybody else, but these kids look like babies to me!
Hello Patricia!
I think that we were expected to "grow up" much faster than today's kids. I can remember being told at 16 to give serious thought to what I wanted to do, go to college or whatever. Always followed by you'll be an adult sooner than you think. Junior and senior year in high school we were constantly told we'd be adults soon and talks about making decisions for the future. After high school you either went on to further schooling or you were expected to get a job. No ifs, ands, or buts about it! If you went to work it was expected that you turn over a portion of your earnings to your parents. It may only have been 10 or 20 percent but you were expected to pay your way. In general boys moved out while lots of girls stayed in the family home until marriage. Nowadays they give prizes for "participation" and kids live at home a whole lot longer. I'm sure a lot of that has to do with the economy and lack of jobs that pay a living wage, however these kids aren't prepared to be grown ups as quickly as we were. We had jobs at 16 and were paying "rent" as long as we were working. We were expected to do school and a job if we wanted pocket money after we turned 16. We were taught "there's no free lunch" most of our lives. If you could get a job babysitting, doing chores, mowing lawns, shoveling snow, etc. before you got your working papers at 16 you did. Most of us wanted to work and have our own money. Kids today have it way too easy. And the music, with exceptions, is pretty awful!
I could appreciate some of my parents music but today's music I just want to turn it off.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
How are you doing???
I'm 75 now and consider myself lucky to have been a teen and young adult during those years. The music was fantastic, and we actually learned the three 'Rs' and much more in school. I also met my husband in 1960, and we married in 1966. Fifty-five years married and still having a wonderful time.
Well, you were a girl. You had no worries about conscription. I believe the sixties were awesome for you!
Well, Norbert, the Vietnam War and the draft was on everyone's mind . It wasn't so lucky for my husband and my brother, and it was downright tragic for many friends and relatives: injuries, PTSD, and some paid the ultimate price. These young men, along with female nurses who enlisted, proudly did their duty and I am forever grateful. At my age, it's best to look at all the positive things of life and keep the precious memories, no matter how joyful, or sorrowful, intact.
@@kathryngrove-dewitt1631: Not only were the lives of those who were inducted into military service ruined, but many who were of military age but somehow escaped getting drafted could not get decent credit, buy a house or even a car, or get a decent job. This is because lenders and employers were correctly concerned that young men could be conscripted at any time, and their investment in these people could be destroyed!
@@kathryngrove-dewitt1631 Thank you,for you're service, glad your husband and brother made it back.
It was difficult as far as wars went, and there is always something going on in the world!!! My dad served in WW2, and that was difficult for him as he lost many friends!!! Now we have Covid!!!
I was 10 years old in 63', and I still listen to songs of the 60s and 70s today. This was music you could actually understand and appreciate. This kind of music will never come around again.
We r the same age and of the ame opinion
Same here, tell me it was not that long ago. Where have all the years gone?
Ditto. Loved my childhood, the popular music was very diverse and everyone could sing the lyrics, oh, and dance! Good memories.
What lives and times we had being born in '53! Being a musician I always followed older taste.

Grad. HS 1965.... Deep in nostalgia @ 77... thank goodness for digital remastering!!!
A Truly AWESOME time too have Lived and Loved through!
a time forever gone!!
I’m 75 this year and still miss the very best of decades, the sixties, yeah!
Oh yeah!!! Me too. I’m 72,5 now. So good to be able to listen to any song of any time. Enjoy!
I am 73 this year. I remember watching the Beatles live on THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW.
@@donnapickard4701 Lucky girl! It must be so great. Congrats! But I’m lucky too. I went to 4 Paul’s Concerts 3 there in the very first rows. Miami, Dublin, Sao Paulo2x. I also proud to have a vinil record The Fireman autographed by Sir James Paul McCartney got by my son in London. Also a Ringo Star concert in Sweden.

I'll be 74 soon and 1960 through 1969 were amazing years! Go back and watch American Graffiti and get a small sample of life in that era.
The trailer asks "Where were you in 62?" Me? Starting high school and meeting my BFF, may she rest in peace. We were shy girls, but together we were a bit adventurous and bolstered each other's dreams. Because of my friend I became the first girl to be allowed into the Industrial Drawing class. I wasn't trying to prove anything I just like math and drawing. Lol
Anyway, check out the movie if only cuz Harrison Ford is in it! 😉
I was 14 and started high school that year. These songs bring back so many feelings and memories!
This was the year that I graduated from High School. Best music ever throughout the 60’s. Such great memories and some heartaches in love ❤
One of the very best years for music!. I was 23 and this is still my music today at 81..
No screeching just beautiful voices
Voices and you can actually hear the lyrics
And lyrics...you want to hear too...steve
Nice no screeching g!!!
OMG, I so agree. Screeching voices cannot hold a candle to this
I remember all these as I was about 10 and very much into pop music...I used to do my chores with the radio on loud on weekends...all the charts were played over and over.. me singing along while dusting and vacuuming 😜👍 yep, kids had chores in those years and we better did them without any complaints.
Crazy times 🥰👍😆😅😆
Hello Titania. How are you doing?
I still like doing chores to these songs.
This was real music with real talent . Today’s music isn’t even in the same class .
You realize that people were saying the exact same thing in the fifties about the music of the beginning of the century and that others will say the same in 30 years about music that is not yet released! Your comment is just you getting old. It’s not that I disagree or not with you, it’s just so cliché!
I was 16 years old in 1963, and remember every on of these great songs now at 76 yrs old, it is still the best music ever !!!!
So true
Great music that cannot be repeated...❤
Hello, how are you doing today and the entire family and friends doing today i really enjoy this song...
If you recall these early 60s great hits as a teen, you are on your pension now and wallowing in splendid nostalgia!
I still have most of my 45s and some 33s. I still love this music.Any one remember buying records from the Music store ?
And listening to the record in a tiny cabin
I remember these songs on the radio in the early 60's and I am not on drawing a pension nor am I retired. I also remember where I was on Nov 22 1963. Thats the day it all changed and we never went back.
I’m 65. What’s a pension 🧐
I was 13 years old and surrounded by the greatest music ever. The best was yet to come in the rest of the sixties What a great time to be a teenager. Awesome
Great until you finished high school and got your draft notice. I wish I had never registered with the local draft board. I have seen many of my peers who were never called. I suspect that they never registered. I certainly wish I never had!
@@norbertsiewert3917 Nothing like reminiscing. But there's no such thing as the greatest music ever. That's a subjective statement, and only applies to you. That said, I love the music from the sixties. Many classics from that era, that also bring back memories to me. Music, is very much so mnemonic.
Unless your draft age or will be
Greatest times of ALL TIMES!
I was also 13! 7th grade! I remember all of these!
I love these songs brilliant
Hello Marilyn!
Hello, how are you doing today and the entire family and friends doing today i really enjoy this song ????
Hello,
It is impossible to explain the feelings these
Old songs bring up. We were lucky to be here to experience the good times🥰I would not have missed a second!
Hello 👋 carol
How are you doing?
The 50s and the 60s best music ever.
@@daviddiego9831 unlike your response, no TROLLS in the 1960's except the fuzzy headed dolls. lol
Metoo!!
He's so fine!!
If you didn’t live through it you’ll never know just how good it was.
A wonderful time to be young, and we all agree it was too. I’m so thankful that I was born in 1946 and grew up precisely at the right time.
There’s absolutely nothing enjoyable in today’s popular music for me, poor kids of these days not having a genuine good time like we did.
I was born in 1947....know exactly what you mean...agree 100%
I agree born in52 there were no “specifics” only good songs/music!
Lol, I would have to agree. I was born in 55, and wish I was born in 45 cuz that way I would have been 20 years old in 1965, and able to really live through the 60s
yall old man i was born in 2008
A wonderful time to be young, unless you were a male, in the United States, healthy but poor, and had no connections. You were sure to be conscripted into military service!
I had a transistor radio stuck to my head all the time. I even got caught at school listening to a crystal radio that had the ear phone run up my sleeve. LOVED IT!
that's right......... i was born in 73 and even i remember mono sound and that single
skin coloured ear phone with that twisted white cable that ran up your sleeve
or in my case, it was a walkman but in the early 70s it was a transistor radio with a black leather case with
holes for the speakers and i'd put the wire from the radio which sat in my pocket up my back , under my shirt
and out the head hole in my shirt into my ear
it felt like nothing was there but i was wired for sound LOL
even used to go to the roller rink and feel like cliff richard
May 1963 I love all those songs the best growing up in the '70s '60s whatever
Remember:😔the radio rockets that clamped toanything metal and needed no battery how way out was that
I lived on military bases. Boy all those interconnected fences made great antennas. Just clip on. I’m telling my age with the crystal radios.
@@johnmergler1486 I had a Rocket Radio too, John! They were so cool!
Beautiful music ! What a difference from today!
Hello how are you doing today?😊
No digital keyboards or effect pedals or digital mixing studio recorders... Pure talent and strength on voice !
Man how I miss the 60s. I was 12 years old when the Beatles hit America and went straight from country music to rock and roll overnight period went through the hippie stage and man what a life that was. Now I'm 69
Yep great times and the Beatles taught me to sing. Great harmonies. Al quality in that era great music with great lyrics. Now I’m 64 so we are very much of the same era.
Only 69? Enjoy your youth!
I never liked hippies. I was born in 1958.
Had my first job in 1963 Jan 21 this was the year my life started properly. It’s been a long time now that I’m 74 ??
68 here I think.. lol
Congrats man
I was 12 in 1963. I remember these songs.
Hello 👋 Anie🌸
How are you doing today??
Yes at 7 yrs old I could hear, learn and sing the songs...we had so much fun!!! Those were the days of true talent and such variety!!!
Hello how are you doing today?😊
Was raised in the 50 s & 60 s. The best times. I'm 71, now, still listen to the Best Ever !!
You are extremely lucky
No capital gains tax in Canada until the year 1968. Yes the 50's and 60's were the best of times.
Oh dear. A lifetime ago. I was 18 then, and now I 'm 76. Might explain why I had tears in my eyes (sniff)!
Oh... but we had such fun☺️🎶
I was 19 then and I only can remember Blowin'n in the Wind, Sukiyaky, The rhythm of the rain and Surf'USA. I'm from Spain and here the songs weren't so popular.
Same here turned 76 March 6th
@@alanwolcik8048 Im 16 and I feel like I fit more with the generation that grew up in the 1960s.
75 years old now, single for the past 24 years, go off walking alone each day, water bottle , AirPods, mobile phone with my music. Mostly 60s and70s music , still have the values of my parents and don’t apologise to anyone for those principles that have seen me through some tough times. Let’s bring them back, let’s not apologise for them.
Ahhh.. the good ole days, when music was FUN!
Das war eine wundervolle Zeit.🤩
I graduated from high school in 1962 and remember these songs like it was just yesterday. I guess it's safe to say it was a much more 'innocent' and gentle time - but.... things were getting ready to EXPLODE. Literally!
Thanks for the memories!✌
Not so much innocence at the drag strips and oval tracks of America
What memories. I brought the 45 of Puff the Magic Dragon for my younger brother and sister because they loved it so much.
They are both dead now, and I miss them heaps.
The folk music scene is what drew me in during the '60s.
Thanks for the Memories....Miss those days............Puts a tear in my eyes..........JB.✌✌✌
I loved our music from the 60's.you could understand every word, didn't need all that noise behind the great singers. Loved our Era. No filth & fowl. Sally&Neil 😊
I will never forget the first time I heard Stevie Wonder play fingertips - I was 14 picking berries in the summer sun with my transistor radio. What a happy time. Those who were born later missed the best years our nation has ever had.
Have you ever heard anyone sing like Stevie Wonder again? Never!!!
Well, it wasn’t the best or a happy time for a lot of people, sadly
@@pattyayers sorry to read that.
Sorry to trash your dream. I'm a decade older - the 50's had better music, but the sixties were great too.
Lo
60's music IS magic -- A great musical decade...
Best tunes, cars, threads, hair & the greatest of all....we changed the world....what an era....
Was "Maybe" this Era by Chantals? Also Carla Thomas ...
Agreed
the 80's music was better by far .
60s great also I loved 50s music, I am now 72.❤
Best music ever. 50's and 60's were such a magical time to be young. thanks for the wonderful memories.
I was born in 1963,so it's lovely to listen to all the music that was around as I came into the world, many of the tunes I've known all my life 🎶 ♥ xx
Hello Trude. How are you doing?
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
How are you doing???
The best way to accurately describe this era is to say it was the best of times and never to be repeated. Amen.
Yes, they were good times - but they were also the worst of times too - the anti-war protests; civil rights protests...!!!
@@michaelmcgregor7374: Forced busing, integration, social engineering.
Our music was our stress relief from all the problems back then. Today, we don’t have this great music from all of the stress from politics and Covid. We shouldn’t turn on one another, so sad.
American Bandstand,Dick Clark countdown,every sat.
@@michaelmcgregor7374 / It hasn't changed !
60s and 70s and 80s were the best for music etc unlike nowadays
Hello Julie?
What’s happening now it not music anymore
I graduated from high school in 1963. These songs always stop me in my tracks. Love them!
I also graduated in 63 in Worcester Ma. What a different time the country was in then. Innocent, dorky and beautiful. I miss those days.
I graduated in 63 also the GREATEST
62 was my year, man we had fun and didn"t realize it, where is that time machine?
Look me up on youtube, you might like what I have
So did I. Good friends, good music. You could actually understand what they were saying.
I was 5 when these songs can out and I was hip...sisters & brothers a good bit older so teenagers of the day got stuck with me a lot. Hence, I still know the words to all the songs that have words. Some great music this year!
Time goes by so quickly as we get older....The 60s seems like just yesterday, I can remember the days back then clearly, but dont ask me what I ate for supper last night...Granny glasses and bell bottoms, shoulder length hair tye dye t shirts, those sure were the days.
It's something they never warned us about...
Stevie Wonder already on the charts in 1963.
Fantastic!
Stevie wonder is a real one
@@jmoney1814 YESSSSSS!
I have that 45 on UK issue, but bought later. I didn't get a record player until 1967! :-(
He was already a great musician, what a sound !
I saw him live at Michigan State Fair in Detroit in 1963. Afternoon , very small crowd . Playing his harmonica, Little Stevie Wonder. I was 16 and hitchhiked to the Fair Grounds with a friend from the eastside of Detroit. I am 74 now.
Go from this to the Top Songs of 1968 (Just 5 years later) and you'll see just how profound and sudden our Society changed.
Yep...and this was just less than 10 years after the Vatican had been taken over by the Freemasons in 1958, and everything started to turn to custard!😨
And continues to do so!
Ryan: it's the only generation that was profoundly different from early, to mid to the late 1960's.
And not for the better
Astute and useful observation!
I was only 7 yrs old but still remember many of these songs. I had such a good childhood.
Hello how are you doing?😊
Born in 1961, i love the music of the 60s, 70s, and 80s… True music, real voices. ♥️
Whut About Tha 90’z And 2000’z ⁉️
Born in 1950, witnessed the birth of rock and roll, raw, dirty, gritty. Elvis made it mainstream. John Lennon stated "before Elvis there was nothing". One billion records later still the King!
Me too 🙂
YES!!!🎉
I can actually remember where I was when I heard some of these songs. I'm 65 and they bring back good memories.
I was at a beach-side high school at the time - the surfer songs just put me right back in the moment
Gary Jones : I was still in my Mother's womb 1960 but the music had a profound effect on me even then !
@@Biggles2498 that's nice
@@janmeyer3129 hello
Me too Gary, I was living in L.A. and moved to Vegas that year.
I was born in 1963. I found it interesting to see which hits survived the last 59 years. Nice walk down memory lane.
1963 avevo 5 anni ma già mi piaceva ascoltare, ballare già ero amante del ,, VIVERE"💃🕺💏💓
born in early 60's' so as a kid i didn't really catch on to this music till the 70's..But compared to todays music you cant beat these memorable classics.
Just like me I was born in 1963 I hear you the best brings tears to my eyes awesome, I love it Gary
No light shows, stage dynamics, “ stage presence” - just great talent and voices.
The groups couldn't afford all that. They'd spent all their money on suits, dresses, and guitars. Lol!
I'm 80 years old and so blessed to have grown up when we had awesome music
I was born in '63, listening to these few tunes here on this video, I feel as if I remember myself bee bopping in the backseat of the family car to these same tunes...
@Hello Gregg how are you doing
We all remember all the words to these songs, and where we were when we sang them.
I pray that everyone still has their health!!! 💝💝💝
Yes still rocking at 76.
Thank you and right back atcha!
I am from the Philippines and I'm now 74 years. In 1963, I was just 16 years old and I am quite familiar with these iconic songs performed by such great singers. Just nice to tread down memory lane.
❤👍I'M 74 AND LOVES THIS OLD SONGS. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST YEARS OF MEMORIES IN MY LIFE AND THE MUSIC WAS AWESOME. GREETINGS FROM BULGARIA 🇧🇬
Greetings to both of you. As we connect across the world let us smile and be kind.
did you see the beatles when they come to Philippines
80+ greetings from France...wonderful comppilation thanks Merci
Agree 100percent ! Why did it have to go away !???
I was only 10 years old in 63 but I know and still listen to these songs today
I was born in 1963. What a very busy year that was.
I was 10 also, remember all of them.
Yup, 9 and then 10 in August. Seems to me that some of these songs were later though. I don’t think there were mini skirts in 63...
@@KathleenMcCormickLCSWMPH I think you are probably right. According to Google the first mini skirt came out in 1964 and just kept on getting shorter. Not that I minded at the time!! Lol 😆
Matt, I was 9, never again has the music been duplicated...i listen still and forget about who is running this country..
I absolutely love the 60's. The music of my generation, not the garbage they have out now.
I agree 200% Allan
Im from the 60s too. It's ironic however that our parents said the very same thing about us and our music compared to their generations music..
So True, can't beat the oldies !
I am nearly 40s and I love this kind of songs 😍😍
The music is different but not garbage.
My first of two daughters born this year. What wonderful memories. Thank you so much. England, March, 2024.
Wow this brings me back !
Hello how are you doing?
The music of the 50's 60's and 70's will never die. It was fun.
80’s is the best...
@@queenieny4654 Not really. Early 80's has some gems but rap and overused synthesizer are horrible.
Just what happened to the Monkees.... Daydream Believer ?
It's fun to look back but I wouldn't want to go back. I'll take the here and now of the information age. We have our problems, but they don't seem as insurmountable as they did then.
Music from throb 1960s was good
I miss those days when people made real music....
I wish i was there
Definitely would go back again in a heartbeat
@King Alex I'm 71 and I don't have a lack of new, young quality musicians to listen to, who don't rely on autotune and other gimmicks for their sound.
A very talented group with a great song , from the history of Rock 'n' Roll. Those truly were the Good Ol' Days.
Immer wieder schön!
The 60's were the best time of my life! I listen to 60's music when l am down! A blast from the passed, it gets me up & motivated! Lol!
"past"
My husband and I are in our 60s and the music of the 50s, 60s and 70s are our favorite. Songs were hard to find on tape and the radio these days...until my husband installed Alexa. Now when I am in the kitchen I tell Alexa to play ANY song of these years and the memories it brings tears up my eyes because life was far better than it is now. I feel young again and reminisce growing up. Gosh I miss those days.
You can drop me off anywhere in the 60s. I'll manage it from there.
Drop me off in '65 if possible... Or just slow down on the time machine when we roll by the mid 60s and I'll hop out.
funny
A decade that took us from Ike to the breakup of The Beatles. [... and of Simon & Garfunkel]
Took me from jr. high school to Parris Island.
Fred
The sixties would have been great for me, but I had the draft hanging over my head. I dodged the draft for 1.5 years after graduation from high school. I failed. Got drafted and ended up going to Vietnam, as had thousands of other boys from my generation. Think of all the dead and ruined lives!
Tv S me too
❤ j'ai 87 ans dès le matin j´écoute les chansons des années 60 ça me rappelle les meilleurs souvenirs
As an apprentice audio engineer in the 60's I lived, loved, recorded all music...then as a DJ in the 80's played it all again...now in twilight years thanks to you kind people who take the time and trouble to bring this music to us oldies...THANK YOU.
I was 14 years-young, and boy do these songs bring back a lot of memories!!
They don’t write like this anymore
Best era and the best music. Loved the 60’s,
Great music, a happy time
I was a bit too young to remember these from '63, but in the years since, I fell in love with the 60s. But looking at those hairdoos, oh Wow. Thanks for these.
Greatest time, great music! Bring back so many memories.
Hello, how are you doing today and the entire family and friends doing today i really enjoy this song...
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face!......
1963 - -- what a year in music. The great Lesley Gore, the only singer with two songs on the list. Many other greats -- Beach Boys, Chiffons, Bobby Vinton, so many memories of my sixth grade year.
Peter paul and Mary had two as well
I was born in 63. Now I know why I love so many of these songs, but my decade was the 70s. I love and miss the 70s sooooooo much.
Me too
Me top.
Ultra Lists has videos for the top songs of the 70s also.
But they don't have a time machine to take you there....
Mencata
I was born in 1961 so I blame my Mom for my good taste in music, she's still doing the Twist and has pink hair, Love you crazy girl
Thank goodness we have youtube and folks like the one that has compiled these videos and songs so that us older people can reflect on them and the younger generations can enjoy something very amazing they may have otherwise missed out on. These awesome artists, singers and groups are passing on more and more frequently and before you know it there will be very few left. To give you an idea of what I am saying, I have compiled a list of the artists here and if they are deceased or still living, or at least the ones I could find.

The members of the bands are the ones that were members at the time the songs listed came out. Several bands had different members before and after 1963. As you can see many are deceased and most of the ones still living are in their eighties and a few in their nineties. So again thanks to youtube and the people who put these videos together so that these amazing artists will not be forgotten.
Thank God we had songs we could sing along with. Not the trash that's out today!!!!!
What’s so funny... I can remember the lyrics to almost everyone of these songs but can’t remember where I put my car keys lol.
@@pixiestyx1766 I`m a german DJ. 74 years old. I started collecting records in 1963. I could sing a lot of hits in that time like Sealed With A Kiss - or Blue Bayou or The Night has a thousand eyes and more. I still worked as DJ for nearly 50 years. In 2010 I worked in a club in Mannheim called CAFÉ BLAU. A Punk Club (I loved Punk in that time) but I never could imagine that some people could sing Punk-Songs like we did Blue Bayou. But I was wrong. Once I played NEAT NEAT NEAT of the Damned, I hardly understand what the Damned are singing, but half of the guests are singing that song !! Really ! Try to listen to that song on UA-cam than you know what I mean. Okay, I more love to to sing The End Of The World of Skeeter ! Thank you americans for your fantastic Pop Music of the last 50 years (1950 - 2000) !!
The same thing old folks said about rock and roll back then Russell.
Want me to get off your lawn Pops................
@@Randy-ry9ss Yes - good idea.
Oh, boy…memories. I performed Puff, The Magic Dragon at the spring assembly of my elementary school. It was 1963. I was eleven. That song remains a favorite to this day (2021).
Yay magical!!
@Hello How are you doing my dear
Walking 🚶🏻♀️ down the memory lane in England in 1963👍👍👍
Thank you for all the memories 🥰
Best Songs in 1963 had incredibly insane good melodies, but You can hear here how drastically music was changed sonically by The Beatles
That's back when things were simple and people seemed to love one another more than today..
unless you were Black or Gay or Indigenous :(
@@shirleyanne6573 this is not true...just the world didn’t surround around gays, blacks or trans.
That's because we didn't have many responsibilities and had lots of fun.
seems to..is the key word 😉
