Rarely does a song. Any song. Send chills up my spine like this song does. I'm 70 years old. It sent chills up my spine when I first heard it on the radio and still does this to this day. Little Anthony isn't so little. I can't imagine anyone else singing this song so that it almost permeates out of his pores. If I witnessed him singing this to his girl then I'd fall to my knees and cry like a baby. Who says there's no power in music? Have you ever asked (begged) a girl to stay and she didn't? Case closed. With a life time of regret.
I'm 73. I still remember his performance on Ed Sullivan. The song is haunting. It reminds us of our heartbreaks in our teens and 20's. Did I have one girl who I loved but she never felt quite the same way? Of course I did.
my husband died yesterday. this song kept running through my head. finally broke down and listened. had a huge cry. still feel like shit. the song is cathartic
I know exactly how you feel. One day I woke up and it hit me. I'm the oldest living member of my family. Everyone I grew up with is gone. The memories are pleasant but painful!
I'm just reading this in 2020 and hope that you are feeling better❤ These songs are all a part of our lives and do represent milestones. My condolences.
My elder cousin died last year, this New Year I had the same thought. What happened to all the Aunts and Uncles, Mums and Dads? Shit, out of all sides of our family I'm the oldest and only my son carries the surname forward.@@cjsansoo7
@@HemetOCMACK I just checked out your channel! Your ‘playlist’ is fantastic! 12 years on the internet...Owen you deserve to have a subscriber so....I just sub to your channel! 😁
This is the real deal, no auto tune, no smoke and mirrors or 20 dancers to distract from the TRUE performance, Just genuine raw talent, something we wont see from todays so called pop stars anytime soon if ever...........................
Had the very great privilege of meeting Little Anthony backstage in mid 70's. He had beautiful lime green tux trimmed in yellow. I addressed him as " little Anthony" ...he said " oh, you don't have to call me little honey, you can just call me Anthony". We visited and it was such a big treat. He was so humble and personable. He signed my autograph book ( and he didn't usually give autographs because he didn't leave stage to do so. ) great time in my life. 🎶💫🎶
And he’s singing live with an orchestra behind him. This means he has to project his voice high and loud over a distance. It’s a very hard thing to do. He has great talent
@@Stand663 This is live singing, but it could be the backing track (note the backup singers have no mic). Amazingly, the backing track or orchestra starts to slow in the first bar, then speeds up and Little Anthony doesn't miss a bit. The second line also increases it's pace and is in a different key (on purpose) in the record and the stage recording. Little Anthony again is unfazed. Absolutely amazing. Very close to the record in style, but there are small nuances that are different. I think this performance is even better than the record.
Magrrem Caihar little. Anthony. got a suger in his gas tant what hurt so bad tears on your pillow. seeing and looking at the man on the right. are you singing to him because. it look like it
He sings this song with such powerful emotion you can feel it, touch it, and you recognize the pain of losing a lover, you have felt it in your own heart. Here is Little Anthony expressing that pain more eloquently than any poet or any other artist can. It is a beautiful and exquisitely poignant song that pierces my heart each time I hear it and it does so because of the honesty and artistry in Little Anthony's soulful, powerful, immortal voice.
Amazing watching this clip ….still loving this song and artist from 1965 to 2023. Two days ago I saw Little Anthony sing this song as a senior it was pure tears of joy….just like watching this clip today. Pure tears of joy.
The song was given to Little Anthony and the Imperials by songwriter Teddy Randazzo, according to a memorable documentary about Little Anthony available on UA-cam. The reason the lyrics ring home is because Teddy was going through a divorce when he wrote the song. Little Anthony said it was his job to interpret the emotions of Randazzo. It explains the bitterness and hurt of some of the lyrics in my opinion.
When I deployed to Iraq in 2007, I had my daughter send me an iPod with all the songs of my junior high days....just in case. Spent many a Blackhawk flight with this great classic!
Little Anthony was capable of practically holler screaming lyrics under total control. He wasn't afraid to go there. I wanna hear someone go there again. Little Anthony said so.
Little Anthony is the embodiment of greatness. And, from a strings/brass crescendo to the abrupt thunder of kettle drums to a subtle cha-cha in the beat, this soulful song has it all. One of the greatest songs of the sixties!
JatikaM Manigault, Yes I still would FIGHT for a girl who only wants to stand by her man like that Country Oldie goes. Unfortunately the girls don't believe in sacrifice for love now Dusty Springfield's wishing & hoping has been put in a museum. That's the awful reality so men Marry foreign women but even that fails
The line that gets me everytime "You loved me before, please love me again,...(and then he sings with force) I CAN'T let you go back to him,..please don't go, please don't gooooo!!!"
The ultimate beauty and emotionally ever captured in Any music ever. The haunting depth of love the song is engulfed by Little Anthony is once in a lifetime. With that command, genius, and helium voice brought forth which is unmistakable, irreplaceable and impeccable on every artistic level. Evoking "that feeling" of young unbearable love if 💔 broken can change you forever. To have it ALL - and Charisma is what makes you fall in love w/ them. My Father was a World Class classical concert pianist. I trained as well. I learned to read. Write, play piano 3 years old on-- The only other thing my Father who was quiet, refined, non jugemental... did say: And there will NEVER EVER BE ANYONE WITH a voice like KAREN CARPENTER AGAIN. SOCRATES: QUOTE: " ALL I KNOW IS ONE THING AND THAT IS I KNOW NOTHING". MY FATHER felt as humble. He had humor, he said but Karen is All I know about.! Right ON DAD!! VALENTINA Jean Prokofiev
Met Anthony at a golf course I was working at in 2015. Didn't know he was playing in the celeb tournament and went to grab his cart at the end of the round and saw the name tag....Instantly starting shaking and got super star struck. Manged to somehow blurt out "Mr Anthony im a huge fan!" He said, " Thanks baby I got to get going I've got a concert later at an Indian casino in San Diego. Got his autograph. Then snuck in to listen to him give a speech for pat Boone in the banquet room. What an experience
@@jackanthony976 Yeah, but when Little Anthony, Ernest, Clarence, and Sammy get ready to really CUT UP, They can blow most groups off ANY stage !! PROOF? ua-cam.com/video/wQ-22RSt8v0/v-deo.html
+Michelle McDonald..... Yes, just as Most All or the groups were back then... no gimmicks, no electronic "wizardry" and fireworks to mask over bad "singing"...... just shear, raw talent... with "Class"..... Unlike, "today"... for the most part, anyway.
No auto tune , no drum machine and look at how people dressed with class ! These guys were a little before my time ,but my old man would play the hell out of that 8 track .
These black groups were so cool back then... so good to see them live. In NZ we didn't see a lot of these clips. We have to be thankful to Ed Sullivan for exposing all this new talent back then on his show.
They weren't underrated at all. They had their share of hit singles and had lots of air play when I was growing up. They were very popular. Tears on My Pillow? Shimmy, Shimmy, Ko-Ko-Bop? I'm on the Outside Looking In? Goin' Out of My Head? Hurt So Bad? Take Me Back? I'm sure you can find these on UA-cam.
This song is beautiful, so Romantic!!! Brings me so Many memories of growing up in the 60s. Where is all the romantic Songs? What amazing voices. Thanks, MLC
One of the greatest groups, with some of the best songs ever! I had the privilege of seeing & hearing them in a small club in 1968. I also had the honor of dropping a tray of Cokes I was delivering to their dressing room after the show! Anthony was gracious and luckily nothing landed on their cool suits. They have left us a beautiful, lasting and priceless legacy.
MY GOODNESS. HOW COULD WE HAVE HAD SO MUCH TALENT DURING THE 60-80, AND THEN IT ALL WENT AWAY,AND NOW WHAT WE HAVE IS NOTHING TO COMPARE IT WITH, AT ALL. JUST GARBAGE.,
We will never ever here music like that again Anthony would always kill that song when he sung it Awsome music at its Finest!!!!! Just Magnificent, please don’t go please don’t go, she’s in love don’t stand in her way WOW!!!!!! Beautiful Love song.💗❤️💗❤️😌😍😍😍😍
Some of the best written heartfelt lyrics written, and interpreted by the one and only singer who could ever interpret them the only way they were meant to be. Thank you Anthony & Imperials & Teddy Randazzo.
My father is really relate to the tallest member of the group. My dad always wanted me to him. I was very young afraid to travel. My sister made sure we listened to Little Anthony so we could see you(my cousin) smooth step. Although I have yet to met you. I love and enjoy watch your performances on You Tube. To name a few of my father's family members. His brothers Russell, Mack. Sheldon whom has passed away. My father was James Lassiter he is deceased also. May be I'll get the opportunity, to meet you at an oldies performance with Little Anthony and the other Imperials. I have gone in your bio. God bless!
Lil Anthony opened for Bob Marley at the Paramount Theater in Oakland. The first time I saw Bob Marley. Totally blown away. "Live the dream these artist live forever in our hearts".
You are so right nothing but garbage I guess we are old school and knew what music was and how it made you feel.oh!! I miss that sound and their voices
DEFINITELY ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LOVE SONGS EVER WRITTEN!! "HURTS SO BAD" : LIL ANTHONY AND THE IMPERIALS IS A LOVELY TREASURE OF THE GOLDEN AGE OF MUSIC!!! INCOMPARABLE, IMMORTAL, ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE!!! CIRCA 1960'S. PRODUCES EVOCATIVE BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES OF GROWING UP!! BEAUTIFUL VOICE!!! ❤️ TQ KINDLY!!! 🌹 🌹 🌹
I have to laugh because my sister was in love with a sanitation man in White Plains NY because he looked like Little Anthony,Too funny.God rest my sisters soul.
I see why you always hear girls screaming in the background at some of these shows. I would have been doing the same thing. I miss the class that these groups exhibited back in the day.
Little Anthony is 83 years old, and still can sing this song. He's still a superb singer.
He took care of his voice. I think they are all still around.
One of the best Soul Singers, ever on this planet. He is firmly in my Top 3.
He’s amazing I have chills, his voice is truly a blessing 🎤♥️🌹
I love this song I'm 43

Preach it!
@1mikera: And even if there Were 20+Dancers, That just Added to the Performers' Show: The Monster Talent of those folks were Still 2nd to None!
YOU GOT THAT SOOOOO RIGHT !!!!!!!!
Absolutely SPOT ON! PRICELESS. One Of my all time FAVES. Little Anthony, PURE GENIOUS!
Taking my breath away 50 some years later
Nobody ever put that kind of emotion into music.
In my world this is a masterpiece. It comes from the depths of his soul, honest, from the foundation of his being!
dan fiore
Time life brought me here. It stood more than the other songs. So tempted to buy the cd’s.
Truly fab, by any standards !
In my world also. Loved this group growing up in the 60's in the Oakland/San Leandro area of California.
Perfect.Touching too.
The Word came to my mind as soon as the song began. So enigmatic. A masterpiece in any world.
Had the very great privilege of meeting Little Anthony backstage in mid 70's. He had beautiful lime green tux trimmed in yellow. I addressed him as " little Anthony" ...he said " oh, you don't have to call me little honey, you can just call me Anthony". We visited and it was such a big treat. He was so humble and personable. He signed my autograph book ( and he didn't usually give autographs because he didn't leave stage to do so. ) great time in my life.
🎶💫🎶
They appeared at Vanderbilt back in the ‘60s. Best line: “We noticed blankets doing push-ups in the park.”
This is my favorite version of this song. Little Anthony literally puts his heart and soul into this song. In fact, I love all of his songs.
Me too. I love Linda Ronstadt but her version of this song just doesn't compare to the Little Anthony version.
Copy cats never do.
Not great lyrics or special melody, but what a production!
His control of his voice was simply Amazing.
And his performance was superb. So mature and refined
his voice feels it and makes you feel it. UA-cam will probably F me for my honesty but white people should not cover soul they mangle it.
And he’s singing live with an orchestra behind him. This means he has to project his voice high and loud over a distance. It’s a very hard thing to do. He has great talent

Voices like Little Anthony had only come along every fifty years or so.
Yea, compare that to Trey Songz. Lol. You are definitely right about THAT!
The last live performance I saw of him he could still hit all those high notes! Amazing!! What a voice.
Then we're a little past due!
Sarah Gonzales 😭😭😭😭😭😭
his voice is unique never to be matched
Back in da day.
When people really fell in love.
And weren't afraid to say so.
The pure heartache and talent in this song is so amazing. There Will never be anything like it. ❤️
Please don't go away 🤫😉😂
I can't believe what I am watching. Wow...........Just wow
" ... anything ELSE like it."
I agree Melissa. It is so heartbreaking and hauntingly beautiful. How could your loved one leave.
For a "little" guy, Anthony had a BIG voice. The choreography, the music and the voice. Magnificent.
Magrrem Caihar little. Anthony. got a suger in his gas tant what hurt so bad tears on your pillow. seeing and looking at the man on the right. are you singing to him because. it look like it
l have no idea what you are saying Elicia.
Little Anontny was so great at that time .Music was at its peak 45s and ablums What a great time I was just a kid.
Yes indeed.
Sandy Lynne Castrini He is 5’8”not that small,saw him a few years ago and have tickets for him this year.
This song never gets old!!!!
If you leave me it would hurt so bad🤫😉🤐😁
.....seeing the original videos is always so special.....
Nothing like this today. No gimmicks, no technology, just pure talent.
The 60’s had the best music, movies and fashion.

Right on, man
I’m only sixteen but thank god my dad is 55 or else I would have never listen to songs like these truly grateful
right on brother, im 22, i drove myself here thanks to my real and true feelings, heart and soul, were keepin it real
I've never heard this song before, and have just discovered it. Great piece of soul.
Check out Nancy Wilson’s cover it’s really dope!
Never heard Linda Ronstadt do that one ? ?
@@SydRetroFoodie Linda Ronstadt too!!
Try Marv Johnson some day...you'll enjoy his works also I am betting. :)

Just saw him a few weeks ago on the happy together tour still a heart wrenching song and singer
The emotion and feeling -unbelievable! Where are singers like that today

That's music that came from the heart, most people don't have a heart now a days, I was 10 in 1965
Facts my brother Facts
W.D. JENNINGS It was a place in time that we will have to hold sacred. The time period however was before 60 and a bit after 80 though.
Some of the best written heartfelt lyrics written, and interpreted by the one and only singer who could ever interpret them the only way they were meant to be. Thank you Anthony & Imperials & Teddy Randazzo.
Love this song by Little Anthony and Linda Ronstadt's cover as well.
Why can’t we have music like this again....!!!
If you lived through this time as a teenager you can remember your heart aching thinking about your lost love, boy did it hurt!

Little Anthony is the real deal. I’ve seen them in person. Anthony can still sing.

They were just so handsome and classy.

I have to laugh because my sister was in love with a sanitation man in White Plains NY because he looked like Little Anthony,Too funny.God rest my sisters soul.
I see why you always hear girls screaming in the background at some of these shows. I would have been doing the same thing. I miss the class that these groups exhibited back in the day.
