Just found out from Wikipedia that it was the first song by a black all-girl group to reach number one in the United States.
Cool as hell!!
It’s been covered a bunch but this one n the Four Seasons’ are the best
This is still my favorite version but Amy Winehouse did a nice job also. She changes the tempo completely. Give it a try if you haven't heard it.
Carole King wrote this along with "You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman", "You've Got A Friend", "Chains" (the hit by The Cookies in 1962), "The Loco-Motion", "It's Too Late", "So Far Away", "Take Good Care Of My Baby" (Bobby Vee), "Up On The Roof" (The Drifters) and so many others.
People always forget Gerry Goffin who wrote the beautiful lyrics to all those beautiful songs
Carole King has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame both as a songwriter and a performer. For a different take on the same song, check out Carole King's own version from her classic "Tapestry" album. Same song but very different feel! ua-cam.com/video/TxWrUtbzlLM/v-deo.html
Wow
Carole King was a phenomenon, wrote many of the classics, and was a wonderful singer in her own right.
She definitely wrote some awesome hits
maybe the best girl group ever......i remember the first time i heard this when it just came out and still love it 60 years later. i think this is the first girl group to have a #1 hit across America in 1960-61
Another song we danced to. I can see us slow dancing to this song. I'm 73 yrs old and say we had some of the best songs and talented artist! Pure raw talent!!! Beautiful memories! Thank you!❤
Maryann, we Boomers sure did!
Written when Carole was 17 and her husband Gerry Goffin was 21. Gerry wrote the words. Remember that a year earlier they got married-when they found out Carole was pregnant. That gives this song a whole new meaning . And what is more amazing is the words were by the husband. Gerry was a really sensitive guy. He also wrote the words to You Make me Feel Like A Natural Woman.
The awesome Shirley Owens singing lead. It doesn't get better. THE girl group of those days.
I love Shirley Owens voice (the lead singer after whom the group is named). Her voice is strong but still sounds so vulnerable. This was a very advanced song for the time. The (unspoken) suggestion of spending the night together was unacceptable at the time. Carole King, who co-wrote the song with Gerry Goffin also did a great version on her 'Tapestry' album. King and Goffin were among the premier songwriters of the era.
Thank you so much for informing us about Ms.Shirley Owens❤️
@@ShawnandMel4Life I know a lot of useless, trivial information about that era, haha. I really enjoy your reactions and love to see you reacting to classic songs from that time.
You’re so right..I love her voice so much and she’s also very beautiful. My favorite voice of that girl group era
BABY IT'S YOU is, too, a wonderful song.....along with the rendition given by Gayle McCormick (who, unfortunately, is no more with us...R.I.P.) with The (Group Called) Smith !!!
@@giuliogrifi7739 As well as The Beatles.
I like how the oldies have intelligent lyrics. You know what they were singing about but without being crude and graphic.
CAROLE KING can do no wrong! One of the most prolific songwriters of the 20th century.
But this song is about the WORDS!
Another one of the great girl groups from the 50's-60's. They had a lot of great songs such as "I Met Him On A Sunday", "Tonight's The Night", "Will You Love Me Tomorrow", "Dedicated To The One I Love", "Soldier Boy", "Boys", "Mama Said", "Baby It's You", "Foolish Little Girl" etc.
Wow thank you so much for all of those great choices
@@ShawnandMel4Life Dedicated to the one I love is AWESOME...if you pick on that should be it ... love that song
@@ShawnandMel4Life A lot of us appreciate you two. You are Wonderful. 🎄💌
This song has now become a somewhat cheesy karoke thing however the lyrics are still very thoughtful ''tonight with words unspoken'' for example. The song writer Carol King is probably the most important female composer in rock history. Though this was written in partnership with Gerry Goffin. My band still plays this. :)
Wow Jack, that’s awesome. Do you guys have videos on YT
@@ShawnandMel4Life We played at a short festival commemorating Bob Dylan though this particular line up had not all played together before. It's only a phone video but not too bad. You can nearly see me at the back. :) I also made a better recording with a Tunisian girl called Kat doing an old Matt Monro song - he was one of the U.K's most quality singers. Also a student did a short documentary about me as part of his qualifications test it features another of the bands that I'm in Just in case you can be bothered here are the links.

What may interest you is that I remember all the stuff you play because I'm 79 but still very active as I play in 4 bands in Prague though I'm British.
@@2011littlejohn1 thanks so much for the links. I love you guys at that outdoor barbecue concert but enjoyed the documentary more. We're not getting older, we're getting better! Keep rockin'!
@@vivianphillips8519 I'm so pleased you liked the documentary especially as it featured a song I'd written - inspired by Jack Keruac - On The Road.
In my very old opinion Karoke has ruined many great songs my ex-wife drug me to those things and I hated it maybe thats why i drank too much hahahaha
Let's hear "Baby, It's You" - another big hit by the Shirelles.
My Fav..love that song.
Soldier Boy written by
Florence Greenberg. There was a Broadway Play about the Shirells called, 'Baby It's You"
Written by the great singer/songwriter Ms. Carol King. "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" (1960). Charted at #1 on Billboard and Cash Box respectively for "The Shirelles" named after their lead singer Shirley Owens. It would turn out to be their greatest hit and signature song.
The song was written by Gerry Goffin & Carole King, one of the most prolific & successful songwriting teams of the 50s/60s era, maybe even ever!! A list of their songs by the many varied artists who recorded them would give you enough new reaction material for at least a month or two if you listened to them everyday. By 1970, Carole King decided to sing her songs herself. Finally displaying an incredible voice, her second album, Tapestry, became one of the most successful albums ever, with high volume sales & numbers of awards won. It is still considered one of the best albums in music history. I Feel The Earth Move is one of the great songs on the album, which also includes Carole's own version of Will You Love Me Tomorrow. Treat yourself to a listen!
Carole sang- and released- "It Might As Well Rain Until September" in 1962. It peaked at #22 on the Billboard Top 40...
Thank you for what you are doing. I'm 77 years old and grew up with this music. It never occurred to me that there are people in the US who have never heard Chuck Berry, Little Richard, The Platters, The Mamas and Pappas, The Carpenters, on and on. You are introducing a whole lot of younger people to something I'm sure they will enjoy. Please keep it up.
every woman has been in this situation and has thought or asked this question. Very real words
I agree❤️
The lead singer of the Shirelles is a very charming young lady. This song and her performance are among the very best of that era. Goosebumps best describe the experience.
Totally agree
Yay the Shirrels! Baby, it's you, One of my favs, Dedicated to the one I love, soldier boy, mama said, Thanks for reacting to this song.
You guys would have loved the 60s. This song brings me back to "Puppy Love""days.
I enjoy reading the comments, I learn something all the time. Had no idea Carol Kong co-wrote this song.
One of my favorite songs. The Shirelles were great.
Oh yea, classic 60's super group with major hits!!
I love the strings in this, perfect arrangement. Really move the song forward. i never get tired of this string arrangement. Remember the Beatles were listening to this group back in the day a covered some of their other songs.
You 2 are so so super nice in my book I love you too like my sister and my brothers that my favorite one on UA-cam right now
Thank you so much Ransley. We really appreciate that❤️
Thank you for making a 74 year old feel young again. Memories are such good vibes.
All these girl groups of the early to mid '60s were so great. They were on the radio all the time and definitely bring back such great memories of my junior high school and high school days, hanging out with my friends in the summertime.
Back in the day. Girls gave great thoughts to whom they gave themselves to. This song made you think. Love this song. I love that you guys go deep. The words meant something.
Mel with eyes wide open "completely"...lol. I've always loved this song since I was a kid in the early 60's.
Hey Sky, thank you so much for watching ❤️
This is one of my FAVORITE songs! Those ladies were awesome!!! Thanks for the Memory Lane moment!!
Oh my! Another great song! I can’t tell you how many times my girlfriends and I have sang this song riding down the road!
Hey Tina, that’s awesome. Sounds like great memories ❤️😀 See you live on Friday
This was my Late mothers favorite song she used to sing it every night ....thank you!
The Shirelles had many hits and all of them are good. You should also check out a song called "A Lovers Concerto" by The Toys. It's a very similar style.
Shawn and Mel, if you're not careful you will get "hooked" on late 50's and early 60's music I did, 60 years ago and still am!
Always have loved the Shirelles. A classic. And the voices are magical. See the moral lessons we grew up with. Love that bass. Believe it or not, my boys Frankie Valli and the 4 Seasons had a big hit covering this tune. Check it out. Nice string arrangement too.
One of my favourite songs of all time! So glad you enjoyed it!!
Carole king is an amazing writer. And performer
I've always loved the strings in this song.
"Foolish Little Girl" was also one of my favorites by the Shirelles
Two things blow me away here .... the beautiful heart felt lyrics and those wonderful violin and cello sounds -- it's one of Rock's greatest early hits !
Great song. Listen to 'Baby it's You' ... another great one!
I love how y'all always listen to the song, the lyrics, what someone must have been thinking when they wrote it, and the era that the song came out. Music always makes us feel/think something. Love ♥️ your reactions to songs of my life. ♥️😊
would you react to Sarah Vaughn "Broken Hearted Melody (1955) live on the Ed Sullivan Show
and LaVerne Baker "Tweedle Dee". They are two of the best blues singers ever!
Awesome natural talent. Beautiful vocals and orchestra. One of the greatest hook-lines in music history too.
A lot of us "commenters" love being able to see those beautiful eyes of yours Shawn. We love you too Mel with your beautiful smile.
Such great music. I really miss this type of music.
Superb choice. This song by the amazing Carole King was a landmark in rock.
There were so many WONDERFUL "girl groups" that informed the Top 40 musical scene of the late 1950s and early '60s. The Shirelles, The Ronnettes, The Dixie Cups, The Crystals, The Chiffons... I loved every single song and my little best friend and I could sing most of them by heart. I look back and think how lucky I was to have that music in my my pre-teen years.
This same theme was done by Lisa Lisa in the 80s with If I Take You Home. Another classic from the Shirells is This Is Dedicated To The One I Love. 👍👍👍
My very favorite girls’ group, and the one girls’ group that the Beatles followed and cited back in the day.❤️
Carol King is a great composer. But let's give credit to Gerry Goffin a great lyricist.
Saw them 52 years ago. Fabulous and beautiful girls. They had a lot of hits. Loved them.
This song caused a lot of trouble with parents and older people when it first came out. We young people played it even more because of that and it was a beautiful song. A great slow dancing song. Brings back great memories. I was innocent to any deeper many that just kissing. 🥰🥰🥰
1962, was the year I heard “ The Shirelles “ for the first time. Every song was a hit back then…I was 13 yrs old!
LOVE, LOVE "The Shirelles"!!!! For anyone interested, the song was written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin. Carole King, another WONDERFUL Singer and Song Writer!!!!
I really enjoy listening to you explain your thoughts so just keep doing what you feel!
Honestly I cant understand how you havent heard these classics.. This was the sound of a decade. So much of Stand By Me in this track.. Motown genre and absolutely beautiful
Another Group from my time.. The Shirelles, great voices.. Great music.. Love the fact you guys are willing to get a real Motown and rock and Roll education..😃
Shirley the lead singer was a nice new jersey girl.met her years ago. Another great was tonight's the night,soldier boy,baby it's you!
A magical slow dance song 🎵 Imagine dancing with a partner that you liked at a dance to this back then! Perfection
I am surprised that you never heard this song as it has been covered many times through the years, even by some quite famous people and groups. It is a R&B / rock standard.
Beautiful reaction beautiful songs!!
My girls The Shirelles from my home town Passaic, NJ. They were ground breaking so much so that The Beatles even covered some of their songs. Carole King and Gerry Goffin wrote this smash hit for them.
The Beatles did two Shirelles songs, Baby it´s you and Boys on their debut album. They loved all these girl groups of the era.
Shawn and Mel: Please react to "Angel Baby" by Rosie & The Originals, which was a huge hit in 1961. Rosie has the most beautiful naturally high female voice that I have ever heard! You will both love it!
I saw The Shirelles perform this song in a little club in Greensboro, NC IN 1965. They were great. I was 18 yrs old.
Great reaction! Great song. It was produced by the infamous Phil Spector who developed the 'Wall of Sound', not only for the The Shirells, but The Ronettes, The Crystals, Darlene Love/Bobby Sox and Blue Jeans, The Righteous Brothers and Ike and Tina Turner. The concept was to kind of obliterate the sound of each individual instrument in favor of an overall, composite background . . . a "Wall of Sound", if you will.
Sorry, this was not a Phil Spector production and isn't representative of his 'Wall of Sound'. It was Luther Dixon that produced this and many other Shirelles records. Phil Spector did not produce for the Wand/Scepter group of labels that this record was released on. All the other artists you mention were on Phil Spector's own label (Philles) so he did produce their records as well as some others on Atlantic.
Her voice is so amazing!!!
Upvoted immediately just to get the count off of 666. Then watched the rest of the video and was glad I upvoted! These songs predate my era (I'm 45), but my parents loved them so I grew up listening to these types of songs, and I love them! Those 60's girl groups put out some fantastic music! Please check out some of the Wall of Sound groups - I'd start with "Be My Baby" by the Ronnettes, and "And Then He Kissed Me", by the Crystals. These songs are beautifully simple and yet have complexity in the music that is subtly engaging!
Beautiful song great performance.
I've been lovin the Shirelles many years of tomorrows..............I'm fortunate I found their greatest hits at zia records, Vegas
I just love the Shirelles!!
Still such a relevant song. It’s so lovely, bright and pop but a very deep song that asks the questions. I’m still so surprised that this song went there back then.
Love this one. I'm sure it's a question every woman must have asked herself at some point in her life - or realised too late it was the question she SHOULD have asked! The world is too full of broken hearts from whirlwind affairs that come to nothing when it turns out one party was only fired up with lust and wasn't interested in a relationship.
Okay you guys are my favorite
Thank you so much 😀❤️
From that same genre of music, I believe you'd love "Lovers Concerto" by The Toys and lead singer Barbara Harris. I hope you'll check it out.
That is a good song
One of the greatest songs of all time!!!
2:52 I like how you two love each other even on camera with subtle communication.
SHAWN AND MEL LOVE YOUS ❤️ SHAWN EVERY SO Often GIVE MEL A 💋
I recently found your channel and I love it !! You two tickle me severely with your reactions !! I would love your reaction to Barbara Streisand's song Memory. I think you both will be Amazed !!!
The full package ... in music !!!! !! !
This is a classic and I love it! Amy Winehouse did a slowed down version that I absolutely love too! I love when you guys get into the lyrics after the video!❤❤
We had such great songs in the 50’s and 60’s.
I got this on my Playlist. Oh my .love it ..
Beautiful reacction 💪
❤️ there songs.
That was the day and time when music was at its best.
Another contribution of greatness made by an Owens, Jesse Owens, Shirley Owens, Candace Owens then there is me still working on making my contribution to the world when and what it will be who knows but till then I'll continue enjoying all this great music till I discover my niche or reason to be remembered!
I LOVE when you guys get deep
God I love Shirelles...so pure
The Bee Gees do a cover of this and they do a great job. I really enjoyed watching them in the studio putting their spin to this song.
Now when you are at a wedding reception and your grandparents are slow dancing to this you'll understand.
Another great review of an absolute classic tune. And yet another song that utterly encapsulates the time it was created in. You always had that 'Cad' who would smooth talk women extremely well then ditch them for the next poor woman to gain. You still get them to this day. This song would put the frighteners on them as it taught women to see them arriving and be wary of all the gloss men can put on relationships at an early stage to get what they want.
I know you are loving the old classics at the moment, but could you review
Sleeping Satellite by Tasmin Archer
Or Des'ree - You Gotta Be.
Hello you two, I hope you both are feeling amazing today, another hit single by the Shirelles is " Soldier Boy" it was released in 1962. I was just 8 years old at the time. Third song I've requested so far. I could list many oldies. Since I play my bass guitar to roughly about 300 songs ranging from the 50s to 80s. I imagine you must have a list of songs in advanced to react to, just have to wait my turn. Thank you for your time.
beautiful 50s song!
60's song
@@carollittle1059 early 60s?
the strings in this song makes it right after the words
The Toys "Lovers Concerto" is a must!
One of the great songs.
I love the love you have for each other!!!
Atlantic Records had the Shirelles and the Drifters. Along with Motown, Atlantic was prolific in advancing Black music. Notic the violins in the Drifters and Shirelles songs
No, The Shirelles recorded for Scepter, not Atlantic. Scepter was owned by Florence Greenberg, along with the Wand label and the producer was Luther Dixon.
