This is just how it was, all those years ago, before doo wop even had a name--a few guys, no instruments---in the schoolyard, on a street corner,church hall.. and this amazing musicality. This is how the 50s looked and sounded. ..only the clothes are different. Great stuff. And you know? This music really makes you happy, doesnt it? Thanks for this.
He's actually currently attending Julliard Berklee College, I believe. I live in the same town he does, when he performed in the school plays, it was amazing.
Hey, fellow Jersey Boys - as long as there are kids like you keeping the sound alive, rock and roll will stand! Long live the folk music of the street corner!
I didn't even know my boy Sammy could sing like that!!! I don't even like this type of music and I like this!! Fyi I went to school with all these kids this is at my school lol
yea the asian all the way on the left went to juliard best tenor in the east coast...freakin awesome my highschool is top 3 in chorus in nation Ridgfield
ok so every1 besides the first soloist is great its a choir piece but can be played with hes raping the notes and guy on the far right rushes his notes at the end, guy on the left is wow not to be stereo typical but for an asian hes got maddd soul haha yea so guys on the left... youre both the best
yo i rap and beatbox and usually in to rap but there's somthing about 50's and 60's that gets me...but anyway that shit is cool as fuck,and would like to give the guys props/ try why do fools fall in love...

I'm from scotland, 29yrs old and i remember when this was a fresh post. Always remembered this and listen to it all the time.

"Haters be trippin". I loved this. You totally captured the emotion Gene Chandler put forth and you're amazing!
Damn 2006.... back from the original youtube days

What the world could use more of in my honest opinion. Way to go! True talent, great voices, upbeat, positive message. Great.
I come here every now and then for the nostalgia😊🙌🏽
This is one badass a cappella version of a great song! You guys nailed it...Kudos!
This is outstanding! Great job, guys!
Over a decade ago, I watched this for the first time... now I'm back. Pretty sure Sammy is end left? We ain't that good in school in scotland😂
YEAH! GO MEMORIAL HIGH! Ridgefield has the best music programs ever
@louiscaponecchia I thought the Korean singing the swing had a lot of Seoul.
i saw this and thought oh dear, but then it started and u have proved me wrong guys, awesome
Wondeful job guys. I had a group in high school and we did this with split leads too, back on 12/17/1979.
I love your version - you boys are really good! x

seriously, why does ridgefield have so many insane singers?
They were gettin' it!
lol i was in my room jammin to that one! they were off the hook!!!
WOw this is the best four man vocal group i've ever heard; also, you have to consider the fact that they were only high school students at the time.
China boy on the left is a very good vocalist also the glasses boy
i love it.i especially like the one all the way over in the stipped sweater.hummy
Simply marvelous
best version other than the real one itself

Brilliant in all respects- the lead has a rich timbre and his mates are a soulful crew- a classic of rock n roll feelings-
Good job. Thank you

Did that guy on the right sing the bass in the beginning and those soaring notes starting at 1:40 ?? That’s a very impressive vocal range

"decore...re....re... decore....re...re" i reckon this version is heaps better!- old shampoo commercial if any of yous remember

that guy on the left is something else, too bad he wasnt singing lead the whole song...
good job but it needs to be faster and more base
wtfreak.. who recorded this?
i heard all most no bass in this song thats were the soul of the song is but other then that it was all right
lighten up that vibrato my friend. but good group all around
how old are these guys.
fuck they sing good
I thought this was very good =]
He
too slow, too methodical. Feel the song boys.
finally gets going around 54 sec. harmonies are good. just speed it up and smooth it out a little
