Boy o boy do I remember this my cruising days with my best girl the 60s were the most awesome times glad I was thair wow 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸❤️🌹💐💕
Memories David?..you probably mean thoughts..in the 60s there were wars, if not real ones then 'cold war' ones. Relatively (statistically) the world has never before been as peaceful as it is now. That said, it is doubtful if that trend will continue forever...
@@danitadmor if the world is more peaceful now then I will happily live with my thoughts or memories. I understand nostalgia and Rose coloured glasses and all that. The world has never been a Utopia I know but God almighty it certainly is not now. On top of that Elvis is dead and we have covid and Putin and Philip is dead. It is a hard life and then you die. Seriously I do miss the old days but I have very few days left so not much point moaning. Safe safe an covid free. 😊
@@davidgibbs7232 Hi David, I understand you clearly spoke about nostalgia (which I love too - after all, I also watched this video!). And I think you also meant that nostalgia tends to 'paint' everything rose, thus not really objective. Also, we (people) generally tend to think that the 'good old days' were so much better and peaceful compared to now. Statistically that has been proven wrong and we never lived in such a 'stable' quiet world as we do now (however with the negative twitch of smartphone all day). I spoke above about 'dry facts' and nothing more. Wish you enjoy your time to the most! :-)
We teens/early 20's had our own music and culture then and Helen was so much part of it bless her. Fast forward to the here and now and what do our kids have now Yuk!
To think she was only 15 here, what a great voice and song. So mature for her age, I think she grew into her voice as she got older. She sang so many wonderful iconic songs which I still love to listen to.
hi rose, would you happen to have any to recommend i’ve found a record of Shapiros in a bargain store and would really love to further listen to her. Eager to continue :)
Helen was a true talent with a vocal maturity quite rare for someone so young,I have a CD of her and the songs show just how accomplished she is as a vocalist
So true, Bryan. The song is pure drivel, IMÒ, but her delivery is rock solid and she embellishes the Iines with all the panache of a singer twice her age. I know nothing about her -- I hope she went on to a great career and a happy life!
Earlier today I listened to this on my headphones while praying in front of the statue of the Blessèd Virgin Mary in church. I didn't need to say anything, Helen Shapiro said it all for me❤
I just discovered a few years ago. She is nw 77 years old and very attractive with a wonderful voice. She is a Messianic Jew and her testimony from 1990 is on You Tube. She is, in my opinion, the cat's meow!
I met Helen About 15 years ago at a conference in Harrisburg Pa. What an awesome voice and personality. You just have to hear her singing live. What a strong voice. Better than any other female singers in America for sure!!!!!
A long time ago back when I was a kid of 11 I was at the Cinema with my family and the pre-movie was a documentary about Helen Shapiro making this track and her fist performance of it..wow..I loved her then, now I'm still thinking wow..she had a great deep voice..a real talent..weren't those days fun!
She was 15 when she recorded this she is still alive a true east end girl being a Londoner meself I always thought she was a yank. Fabulous song remind of my late parents singing and dancing.
Helen Shapiro was younger than all the members of the Beatles from Liverpool and The Animals from Newcastle put together and yet her fame gradually dwindled down when the Beatles got into fame in 1963.
Tell ya what, she's pretty good for 15, but my goodness when I heard her on the radio I actually thought she was 25 and too old to even be a teenage idol.
I remember her from my youth. Popular for a very short time only. Often wondered why. She seemed to dissappear soon afterwards never to be seen again. Beautiful voice from a girl of humble origins. Anybody know more?
If it wasn’t for the fact that I knew better, I would never have believed that this was a 14 or15 year old girl singing. Her voice was unbelievably mature and she sounds much older.
WOW that's Miss Helen Shapiro age 15 singing LIVE, what a lady, what a voice.
You DO realise that for it to be live she would need , ya know, a microphone? Just sayin'. Not that she wasn't a good singer, of course.

Best of British.
Like Brenda Lee, she had a voice well ahead of her years. My all-time favourite Shapiro number is _You Don't Know._
No autotune And NOT a wrecking ball in sight.
Helen Shapiro is my all time favorite female singer. She is so, lovely and has a fantastic voice
Agree ...👍
Couldn't agree more. Great voice and lovely personality.
And mine, this song was number 1 when I was born ❤
my childhood song. Nostalgic. remembering how life was nice
What year?
Wow! What a dress !
Boy o boy do I remember this my cruising days with my best girl the 60s were the most awesome times glad I was thair wow 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸❤️🌹💐💕
Jesus, my childhood, I remember! Thanks a lot!
Głos operowy, cudowny! Dziękuję Miss Helen.
Her voice is intoxicating!!!! My goodness!
Great song .Brings back happy memories of a nicer world.

No1 when I was born, love this lady xx
This was played at my Aunts funeral.She missed her husband too much to stay on earth.I think of her every time I hear this .True love
We teens/early 20's had our own music and culture then and Helen was so much part of it bless her. Fast forward to the here and now and what do our kids have now Yuk!
Best singer ever! Period. Full Stop!!!!!!
Pop, Jazz, Gospal, she excells at them all. Highly respected singer who stood the test of time.
I still have the 45.
God she was so beautiful
Still is
Hope you are young, else the FBI (shades of MxR) will want a word she is only 15 there
I’m 16 and I agree
I like the less poppy stuff she did. Yea she was good looking!!
the best i have everknown good memories of the early sixties
Love, love, love Helen Shapiro's songs, stage presence, and wardrobe!! Real all-around talent! 💖
To think she was only 15 here, what a great voice and song. So mature for her age, I think she grew into her voice as she got older. She sang so many wonderful iconic songs which I still love to listen to.
She looked about 23 here. I only mean that because she looked very mature, and her voice sounds very grown-up.
only 14
hi rose, would you happen to have any to recommend i’ve found a record of Shapiros in a bargain store and would really love to further listen to her. Eager to continue :)
I'm so in love with Helen, she is magnificent and she sings with her soul. I'm in awe
Show! Thanks for posting.

So glad to find out about Helen Shapiro, love her sound and presence, really like her song ‘Look Who it is’ that she did with the young Beatles
One of the top favorites from my childhood!
Cant be bettered. Perfection personified.
I have 21 and love this girl
A lovely person with a nut brown voice. She went on to be a very accomplished jazz singer.
Helen happiness is what means contentment the answer
Reminds me of my National Service days when the words were changed to "Walkin' back to Civvy Street, woodbine oh yeah, yeah..........etc
What a voice at short age love her
😘😘😘j adore cette période des années 60 c était super sympa pour danser je revois mes parents twister c est émouvant
OMG, This was the great Helen Shapiro at her young age! I will say she is 13, and I lover her voice so much!
Excelente voz y simpatía de sta mujer Helen Shapiro!!!!! Saludos desde Mexico
Vivid memory, back in infants school the teacher put this single onto a record player (can't remember why), but this song has never left me.
😂 i know what you mean 😅
Helen Rocks
Beautiful Voice
LOVED
Her
♥️🌟💕💪💪
I wholeheartedly agree. I very rarely buy music these days for that reason. As a kid, I used to buy 3 albums each pay.
Love her xx
She was 15 when she recorded this she is still alive a true east end girl being a Londoner meself I always thought she was a yank. Fabulous song remind of my late parents singing and dancing.
What a personality !
Timeless.A very beautiful voice .🕊🌻❤😍♥️
Love her voice and my favorite song by her Walking Back To Happiness.
She's a truly beautiful lady as well as an excellent singer.
Wuppaaa, oh yeh, yeh. Show biz phenoms aren't supposed to be this real. ❤Helen
Great song - perfect pitch.
lovely voice
She is fantastic
She is still going strong
Good to listen to the old pops and the footage is simple
December 2022 still Love this Song.
bought her very first record same age as me she was a very talented young singer loved the 60ts music
Absolutely beautiful ❤️
Live performances are the best.
Helen Shapiro was younger than all the members of the Beatles from Liverpool and The Animals from Newcastle put together and yet her fame gradually dwindled down when the Beatles got into fame in 1963.
My mate worked with her, he's a guitarist, Pete Moore. Legend and regular guy.
Fabulous
She's a queen I love her so much
so cool. great voice
The UK has produced so many phenomenal chantreuses from Vera Lyn , miss Shapiro , to Amy Winehouse and Adelle .
I agree.
Don’t forget Dusty and Duffy
Love this ❤️❤️❤️🌻🌹
Tell ya what, she's pretty good for 15, but my goodness when I heard her on the radio I actually thought she was 25 and too old to even be a teenage idol.
Les belles chansons de mes jeunes années 🥰🤩👍
THE BEATLES OPENED FOR HER BACK IN THE DAY.
great song great times
Excellent!
The best British female singer!
Hands down exactly
Next to Dusty of course.
2019 soembody? Kisses from Roumania 😍🤗
2030 great reset
This song hits it. What a sexy voice and a great tune. Happiness I’m a walkin
Maravilhosa!! Too much!! wonderful!
A lovely woman and a true East Ender
¡What a Voicemail!
HOW am I discovering this girl just today?!
Happy 74th Birthday Helen
I know this song. She is fantastic.
It's that low register that does it for me. No sixteen year old should have a voice that good. Best in the business, then and now.
She's no Florence Jenkins but yes, she has an exceptional voice !!
Mi amor platónico,
She is so cute 🙂 I beg all the guys love her.
I first heard the version S nebyvalou ochtou by marta kubišova, its nice to hear the original :)
nice song
This is for u mum on what would have been your birthday I miss u but never forget u hope your having a drink in heaven
I remember her from my youth. Popular for a very short time only. Often wondered why. She seemed to dissappear soon afterwards never to be seen again. Beautiful voice from a girl of humble origins. Anybody know more?
Look her up on Wikipedia
she plays in a Christian band in local venues in the U.K now
Me ouedo con los del 60 lo mejor de lo mejor
If it wasn’t for the fact that I knew better, I would never have believed that this was a 14 or15 year old girl singing. Her voice was unbelievably mature and she sounds much older.
Number 1 when I was born 😊
