Sidney Poitier played a teacher that came into a British classroom of tough, hard to teach students and changed their lives....they all ended up respecting and loving him. It was a wonderful movie
@@brendahhstiles9992 Yes,you need to watch the movie,it's a classic and there is nothing inappropriate about this film..The actual clip where Lulu sings to the teacher is on UA-cam somewhere,it's such a heartwarming moment.
I agree. I saw the movie and am a child of the 60's. It was not inappropriate at all, but just a song of love and respect to someone who shaped young humans into decent adults.
Wonderful movie. The great Sidney Poitier played a teacher to this class of teenage kids in a tough London neighborhood. They called him “Sir”. Lulu had a big role in the film as one of the students and sang this song to his character. This song is magic! One of the best film songs ever!
Speaking of Sidney, I know and worked with his Great Nephew on a job few years ago. One day, I noticed his last name, and I asked, "are you related to Sidney?" Avery stated that he is my Great Uncle. If you see Avery and Sidney side by side, you can see that they are definitely related! Avery stated that he met his famous uncle once at a family reunion.
SHE WASN'T IN LIVE WITH HIM, BUT APPRECIATIVE OF HIS GUIDANCE. The class were the "bad" students, and he had such class and grace. He expected them to be better people and they became better people. It is a great movie -- also called "To Sir with Love."
It was a wholesome movie. He didn't have an affair with her or any other student. He just taught them about life and how to prepare for adulthood the right way. Much like Michelle Pfeiffer in Dangerous Minds from the 90's. To Sir With Love was the OG Classic version of that. Her song is basically just thanking him for doing what he was supposed to do as a teacher - prepare them for life afterwards.
The movie was also a twist on Blackboard Jungle from the 50s, in which Sidney Poitier played one of the "bad" students in a class taught by Glenn Ford's character, and was the first "rock & roll movie" (Rock Around The Clock was the theme song). A decade later in To Sir With Love, Poitier was essentially playing Ford's character, plus being a black man teaching a white class was a commentary on the times (civil rights).
....."To Sir With Love" is the title track of a movie starring Sidney Poitier as a new black teacher who arrives at a tough high school in the London slums in 1967. It's the story of how he wins their respect and the singer, Lulu, was cast as one of the students. The song is about how they grew to respect him..... 😇
In my opinion one of the greatest actors of our time. If anyone broke barriers Mr. Poitier did. To sir with love one of his best. He set the bar. Thank you Mr. Poitier a true class act. RIP 🙏
The movie was not about her falling in romantic love with her teacher. The movie was about a teacher (Sidney Poitier) inspiring his students and she was one of his students The song is basically about a student giving thanks to a teacher for being a great teacher.
Yes, Lulu was married to Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees. She and Maurice can be heard singing "The First of May," as a duet. The song was written and performed by the Bee Gees, so if you want to react to it, make sure you search for Lulu and Maurice's rendition.
This was not an inappropriate teacher student love story. it was a growing respect for a teacher by the class. It was a open school and some rowdy kids learning about life. They started causing trouble in class until he taught them how to think for themselves and to think about others. Lulu was one of those students in the film.
Her "love" represented the entire classes feelings. It was a school of hard knocks! He made the kids believe they could reach for the moon. I need to go watch the movie again.
I think of this song as a thank you to the late, great Sidney Poitier for all that he gave to us. All of his movies are a must watch. He is so missed...
Great movie. She (and all the girls in class) had a crush on the teacher. The song was sung to him at their end of year party as a gift from the whole class. If you haven't seen the movie, I highly recommend it. Good to see Mom again. Happy Holidays all.
This is the title song to the 1967 movie of the same name. Lulu was in the film with Sidney Poitier - she got the gig after director James Clavell saw her open a show for The Beach Boys. At first she had just a small role in the movie, but Clavell was so impressed with her that he expanded her role and had her sing the theme. The film stars Poitier as a high school teacher who has a big impact on his unruly students. Lulu plays one of his students, and sings this song to him at the end of the film as the students show their appreciation for the teacher. Lulu is a charismatic Scottish singer known for her moving rendition of this song. She was born Marie McDonald McLaughlin Laurie (one source cites "Lawrie" as the spelling). She also sang the title song for the 1974 James Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun. From 1969 to 1973, Lulu was married to pop star Maurice Gibb. >> This was Billboard's single of the year for 1967, having been #1 for five weeks in the USA. However in Lulu's native UK it was only ever a B-side to her #11 hit "Let's Pretend." (Songfacts.com)
Judy Geeson's character (Pamela Dare) was the one who had a crush on Sidney Poitier's character in the movie. Although LuLu star in the movie and sang the song, the song was from the class to the teacher (but very well could have been from Pamela Dare).
Me too 😍🥰😍 She knew what it was about, in no way was it about a teacher hooking up with his students A beautiful film, I wish we had more teachers like that 🌻🌻🌻
A great video to put a smile on everyone's face's this Christmas time, DIRTY LOOPS ROCK YOU, with some great Michael Jackson style funk. best wishes from the north east coast of England.
A great film with Lulu staring Sidney Poitier. Lulu as had long career as a Singer in the UK with her own shows. She has had the likes of Jim Hendrix as Guests.
I cry everytime I hear this song. I had a teacher that had such a major impact on my life and I think of him when I hear this. I wouldn't be pursuing a science degree and doing what I love if it wasn't for the belief he had in me...and all of his students. RIP Mr. Fitz.
Actually she's from Scotland.Great singer. This was huge hit in 1967. A woman I met somewhere said her mom lived up the road from Lulu. She seemed credible. OH ME OH MY is my favorite of hers. Artists and songs like this are the reason the 60s r my favorite decade. So fortunate to have grown up then.
Just an incredible beautiful song. I fell in love with it as a kid and didn't know the name of it until almost 20 years later! Love the song!! The strings in the song are fantastic!
No it's not like that!! The teacher was inspirational not inappropriate. This is the title track to the movie which is absolutely brilliant and very moving. Lulu is one of the most underrated singers ever!! Thank you for your reaction. Best wishes from the UK.
You should check out some of the newer live performances. Lulu still looks very young and considering her age(74 I think), still sounds virtually the same. Amazing voice even now. She was still performing live shows even last year, I'm assuming she still is.
She was around before this song as a member of a British group. But as others mentioned she made it internationally with the movie and this song. In Britain, she is still big as a host and has performed with many others.. Wonderful song. Super reaction..
Brad & Lex with Mum. The Film "To Sir with Love" was made on a shoestring budget. They could'nt pay Sydney Poitier. When Columbia Pictures executives saw the film they did'nt like it so the film was given very little advertising. Word of mouth made the film a world wide hit. In New York it played for month's. From this film onward everyone new who "Sir" was. When President Obama, presented Sydney Poitier with the medal of Honour he was introduced as Sir. If you find the time you should watch the film. It can still tug a heart string to this day. Cheers, Chris Perry.
I had the privilege to meet Lulu a few years ago at Glastonbury Festival here in Somerset, England. I was stage managing on a nearby smaller stage and went to help out at the larger Avalon stage. She was wonderful, although her entourage wouldn't allow any photos/selfies. As she was going up the steps to get on stage, she turned to me, waved and winked. I melted on the spot.
She didn’t fall in love with her teacher she was expressing her appreciation to her teacher, actually, the entire class gave a gift to the teacher at the end of the school year in that class was graduating and moving on to adulthood end, and they gave him a present and the card read to Sir with love. They had a very tough school year, as he was new to the school, and he was the only black teacher in the neighborhood let alone the school, and the students were in a lower class part of London.
To ‘Sir With Love’ was another powerful movie starring the deeply talented, Sidney Poitier and how he transformed a group of unruly teenagers, into a classroom of ladies and gentlemen. A wonderful movie with a profound message. Watch it!
He made such an impact on these young actors that when they made part 2 30 years later all that were still alive came just reprise their roles, Incuding Lulu. She also sang the theme for the Bond film The Man With the Golden Gun
This takes me back to when I was young and would go through my dad’s record collection. Lulu, Dusty Springfield, Bobbie Gentry, Dionne Warwick, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, The Temps, Elvis, Tom Jones, etc. He was never into the Beatles or the Stones, but R&B and great pop singers from the 60’s…man, he had a collection! I know you’ve looked at Bobbie Gentry, but if you haven’t listened to Dusty Springfield, I’d suggest her.
Oh gosh this song makes me feel very nostalgic. This is a great movie (To Sir With Love) you guys should it check out. I know Lex would like it!☺ Thanks guys for the great reaction🦋
I had kids in Show Choir soooo I had to suffer through "Glee", then loved the show and singing. When they did this cover in the tv show, gotta admit tear or two since I saw the movie as a kid. I was blessed to have a teacher like that in high school
Yes, very respectful relationship between teacher and students. This was the first in a string of movies that had the same theme...Teacher getting through difficult students. Another great one from around that time was "Up The Down Staircase" with Sandy Dennis. Same theme. Great movies.
A beautiful song that touches me personally because when I was little every Christmas season our single mother would take my sister and I on the bus to NYC and Radio City Music Hall which also had a live Nativity Show and of course the Rockettes!! This was one of the movies we went to see!! I'm over 70 now but this song makes it feel like it was yesterday!!
Lulu was just 18 years old when she did this song and when it was released she had turned 19 she was the girl wearing the purple top in the film and it is a must see movie such great acting and a very good theme truly befitting a real Hollywood acting master up there with all the greats of the past and a genuine nice person who never stopped fighting for his fellows against tyranny and being classed as second class citizens a true legend both on and off the screen RIP Sir.
Great song. Great movie. I met the great Sidney Poitier when I was a college student in the 80s. Some friends and I snuck on to a country club he was playing and he caught us. He was so nice and talked to us for about 15 minutes. He said he wouldn't turn us in if he could play through. What a great guy.
Not falling in love, learning to respect him as their teacher. They gave him a hard time in the beginning but he wouldn't stand for it. He gave them respect and in turn they learned to respect him. He taught them all how to live a good life and have the tools to survive. Simple things like taking care of themselves, being clean and put together. Learning how to cook etc.

Not the inappropriate student/teacher thing. You have to see the movie. The whole class grew to love and respect him as their teacher. Great movie.
From my high school days! It still gets to me at age 72😎
Yep,nothing sexual about it
Respect
Sidney Poitier played a teacher that came into a British classroom of tough, hard to teach students and changed their lives....they all ended up respecting and loving him. It was a wonderful movie

Yes...really good movie. He teaches the group of hoodlums to treat themselves and each other with respect. There was also a TV movie sequel.
One of the few movies I liked better than the book
I couldn't agree more, fabulous movie, and this song was a HUGE #1 hit back then.
Speaking of Sidney, I know and worked with his Great Nephew on a job few years ago. One day, I noticed his last name, and I asked, "are you related to Sidney?" Avery stated that he is my Great Uncle. If you see Avery and Sidney side by side, you can see that they are definitely related! Avery stated that he met his famous uncle once at a family reunion.
Sir was a gentleman, and we miss him. RIP Mr. Poitier. Epic song, movie and actor.
SHE WASN'T IN LIVE WITH HIM, BUT APPRECIATIVE OF HIS GUIDANCE. The class were the "bad" students, and he had such class and grace. He expected them to be better people and they became better people. It is a great movie -- also called "To Sir with Love."
She had a huge crush on him, you just don't like the fact that he was black, dumb racist.
He taught them love, gratitude and respect for themselves and others💞
It was a wholesome movie. He didn't have an affair with her or any other student. He just taught them about life and how to prepare for adulthood the right way.

@@russallert"To Sir With Love " is also a true story.
You need to watch the movie! It brings much needed reference to a beautiful song.
👍
Lulu was a British treasure , great voice. Great movie. And beautiful Sydney Poitier 💕
She "is". 😉
And still an amazing voice
IS a British national treasure!
She is dynamite in a small package! 5ft 1in. That power and vibrato, LIVE, in this video, is something else !!
@@thomastimlin1724 I met her in Glasgow and she was tiny like my grannie, i am 5'11" so maybe me being so tall made her seem smaller than she is.
Her voice is unreal. Incredible power and control. The movie is really awesome too.

And each other.
I don’t think the movie was set in 1967! I think
In my opinion one of the greatest actors of our time. If anyone broke barriers Mr. Poitier did. To sir with love one of his best. He set the bar. Thank you Mr. Poitier a true class act. RIP 🙏
TOTALLY agree! I had a crush on him when I was younger! He was GORGEOUS!
The movie was not about her falling in romantic love with her teacher. The movie was about a teacher (Sidney Poitier) inspiring his students and she was one of his students The song is basically about a student giving thanks to a teacher for being a great teacher.
You owe it to yourselves to watch the film, to fully understand the context of the song. I believe he won an Oscar for his role.
Sidney Poitier won his Oscar for "Lilies of the Field" which is also a wonderful film. The first black man to win an Oscar!
Yes, Lulu was married to Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees. She and Maurice can be heard singing "The First of May," as a duet. The song was written and performed by the Bee Gees, so if you want to react to it, make sure you search for Lulu and Maurice's rendition.

They started causing trouble in class until he taught them how to think for themselves and to think about others. Lulu was one of those students in the film.
She's still around and still singing. We went to see her a couple of years ago and she's still belting them out. A great evening.
Her "love" represented the entire classes feelings. It was a school of hard knocks! He made the kids believe they could reach for the moon.
I need to go watch the movie again.
Mom, you raised a very nice daughter with great musical taste especially CCR😊. Im listening to music since 1958 and they are my favorite group ever!!
Awesome! "If you wanted the sky \ I would write across the sky in letters \ That would soar a thousand feet high \ 'To Sir, with love'"
One of the most beautiful movies I’ve ever seen, and always leaves me in a pile of my own tears…….
I think of this song as a thank you to the late, great Sidney Poitier for all that he gave to us. All of his movies are a must watch. He is so missed...
not love as in romance, but love as in honor and respect
Thank you. That is it exactly. Something we need more than ever today. Movie's message is more relevant today than it was then.
Such a great film and a great song what a voice!
Even today Lulu we love her voice and this song should be thought in each and every school, yes we need that old schooling teaching TODAY
This is soo good! You must watch the movie.
Great movie. She (and all the girls in class) had a crush on the teacher. The song was sung to him at their end of year party as a gift from the whole class. If you haven't seen the movie, I highly recommend it. Good to see Mom again. Happy Holidays all.

I enjoyed watching mom go down memory lane during this song!!
Me too 😍🥰😍
She knew what it was about, in no way was it about a teacher hooking up with his students
A beautiful film, I wish we had more teachers like that 🌻🌻🌻
It's not a song of lust, but of gratitude for a teacher who helped them move forward to adulthood. Great movie. Very touching

Lulu is one of the nicest people you could ever wish to meet.
"To Sir with Love" is a must-see movie. Wonderful performance by Sidney Portier. (Sidney recently passed away.)
Thanks
Very powerful performance
Loved the song and the movie.
You have to react to a 15 year old Lulu belting out 'Shout'. And she still belts it out in her seventies.
Love this song and movie. So good!
Actually she's from Scotland.Great singer. This was huge hit in 1967. A woman I met somewhere said her mom lived up the road from Lulu. She seemed credible. OH ME OH MY is my favorite of hers.

You guys are my favorite! Such a cute couple ❤️
Such a sweet song, and a great movie. R.I.P. Sidney. One of the coolest actors ever!
She turned 74 in November and is still going strong one of the UK's treasures.
What a beautiful song. The movie with Sidney Poutier is profound and worth the viewing.
Love this channel! Best reactions and your Mom is awesome!
Just an incredible beautiful song. I fell in love with it as a kid and didn't know the name of it until almost 20 years later! Love the song!! The strings in the song are fantastic!
What a beautiful classic that I still sing like I know all the words…but I love it! ✌🏻☀️🎄
No it's not like that!! The teacher was inspirational not inappropriate. This is the title track to the movie which is absolutely brilliant and very moving. Lulu is one of the most underrated singers ever!! Thank you for your reaction. Best wishes from the UK.
Great song, and an excellent movie!
Brad and Lex, you should consider starting a movie reaction channel….I think you would do very well!
Her voice is amazing! Should’ve been superstar
It’s a song of gratitude for the positive impact of a dedicated teacher
You should check out some of the newer live performances. Lulu still looks very young and considering her age(74 I think), still sounds virtually the same. Amazing voice even now. She was still performing live shows even last year, I'm assuming she still is.
Well i think she really meant give her heart to him in brotherly love because he did so much for all of them

If you want scratchy, her first hit was called "Shout" which she pretty much did throughout! This song was her on 1/4 throttle!
I remember that movie being one of moms favorites….good memories

No, was about respect and appreciation beyond your circumstances...get ya'lls minds outta the gutter! BaaaaHaaa!!! 😂
A pleasant tune and a fine reaction. Thanks!
Lulu aged so well she is a Fox!
More like a ferret, she looks rough.
One of my top 5 favorite movies. Sidney Poitier was perfect for this role. He changed their lives forever. They adored him!
Such a beautiful and touching movie (and song). I've never forgotten it.
To ‘Sir With Love’ was another powerful movie starring the deeply talented, Sidney Poitier and how he transformed a group of unruly teenagers, into a classroom of ladies and gentlemen. A wonderful movie with a profound message. Watch it!
Lulu is the wee Scottish lass who sings with a whole lot of soul. I wonder how she is feeling now that the great Sydney Poitier has recently passed 🤔
One of many great Scottish soul singers.
When you watch the movie, and she starts singing, it really hits you.
Michael Stipe from REM and Natalie Merchant from 10000 Maniacs did a duet cover of this song for MTV.
Great tune. To sir with love was
in appreciation for her teacher showing her the right path.
One of the best movies EVER! Period.
Watched this on TV back when it first came out.
He made such an impact on these young actors that when they made part 2 30 years later all that were still alive came just reprise their roles, Incuding Lulu. She also sang the theme for the Bond film The Man With the Golden Gun
Beautiful!!! Love Mom singing! Brad, step back.
Excellent movie! I make sure to see it again every 10 years or so.
I went to see this movie with three friends when I was 15. I am 71 now. Great movie. Happy memories.
This is a great movie, a real must watch! Where students come to love their teacher!
Lulu first UK hit was with her band the Lovers and was a cover of Islay brothers Shout .she was only 15 at the time
Awesome song
He wins his students over with common sense and adult thought... Great movie !
A nice smooth mellow tune from the 60"s. Brings back memories. Very good reaction. Who is the lady with Brad and Lex ? She's cool.
Lex’s mom. She’s been on with them a bit.
angrier 5775, thanks for the info
This takes me back to when I was young and would go through my dad’s record collection. Lulu, Dusty Springfield, Bobbie Gentry, Dionne Warwick, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, The Temps, Elvis, Tom Jones, etc. He was never into the Beatles or the Stones, but R&B and great pop singers from the 60’s…man, he had a collection!
I know you’ve looked at Bobbie Gentry, but if you haven’t listened to Dusty Springfield, I’d suggest her.
"To Sir With Love" was a really good movie...
Just watched it yesterday with my 91 year old mother & we both swooned over Sydney Portier! Beautiful movie ❤️
Loved this song as a kid...Great choice!
Oh gosh this song makes me feel very nostalgic. This is a great movie (To Sir With Love) you guys should it check out. I know Lex would like it!☺ Thanks guys for the great reaction🦋
OH WOW!!!! Welcome back mama!!! I for one have missed you!
I can't say how many times I've seen this movie. It's a must see to put the whole song in context.
I had kids in Show Choir soooo I had to suffer through "Glee", then loved the show and singing. When they did this cover in the tv show, gotta admit tear or two since I saw the movie as a kid. I was blessed to have a teacher like that in high school

this song is really emotional when,,, well, watch the movie. mos def worth a view. Lulu stars in it.
Great movie and song.
Still have a massive crush on Lulu, she still looks and sounds great.
One of my fave songs of all time, not to mention the movie as well. So good.
The film was amazing too, Lulu is from Glasgow in Scotland,my dad was in her class at school
Lulu was just 18 years old when she did this song and when it was released she had turned 19 she was the girl wearing the purple top in the film and it is a must see movie such great acting and a very good theme truly befitting a real Hollywood acting master up there with all the greats of the past and a genuine nice person who never stopped fighting for his fellows against tyranny and being classed as second class citizens a true legend both on and off the screen RIP Sir.
