Shelley Fa-Ba_Ray. She was beautiful. She is still alive..last time I saw a photo her hair was pink.
This is from the "Donna Reed Show". Donna Reed played Shelly Fabres' Mom who looks proudly on as her TV daughter performs.
U ever notice how when u listen to old music it makes u feel a certain way. There is nothing and i mean NOTHING in todays music that even comes close to oldies music. Nothing but talent and the songs actually meant something!! 1st class all the way.
That's her TV mom Donna Reed watching her, she's proud of her daughter.
Loved the donna Reid show.
Her last name is pronounced "FA-BRAY", and she was best known as the actress who played the role of Mary Stone, the daughter on the sitcom, "The Donna Reed Show", which ran from 1958 through 1963. (oh, and by the way, you are now officially my favorite couple, as well as my favorite UA-cam music reaction/review channel.)
She also played on “Coach”
I wouldn't say "best known." The Donna Reed Show introduced her to the public and brought her her Initial fame, but that was Reed's show.
Shelley really made a name for herself during her long run co-starring on "Coach," which brought her a couple Emmy nominations. I imagine her early career was probably influenced by her aunt, Nanette Fabray, who guest-starred as her mother a couple times on Coach.
Oh, and The Donna Reed Show ran longer than that: 1958-1966. Coach ran from 1988-1997. In between those two series she also had a supporting role for a couple seasons on One Day at a Time.
And she played in 2 Elvis movies!
And she was in Elvis' movie's. I liked Girl Happy the best
After Ricky Nelson became a teen idol with his music on The Ozzy and Harriet Show Shelly was forced to do this song for The Donna Reed Show. She never did another. Shelly was also on the TV show Coach.
They should listen to Ricky Nelson!
Shelley was 17 when she recorded this song. It went to # 1 on Billboard in the US.
This song always felt like the musings of a 15-16 year old girl in love with an older boy. That pure sweet innocence of a young crush.
Shelley Fabrey was on the TV show "Coach" as , Christine Armstrong , coaches wife
She grew up to be Christine Armstrong on the TV sitcom "Coach".
And I watch the reruns of "Coach" twice a night every night!!!
That’s definitely how I as an 80s child remember her!
@Shawn and Mel...You guys should react next to another Johnny song from the same era (1962) ...Johnny Get Angry by the great singer Joannie Sommers. The song was actually kind of funny but sweet.
Good one 👍 👏 👌
She had a voice that wouldn’t quit. She DID sound like an Angel! Donna Reed was looking at her TV daughter with the proudness of any mother hearing her daughter singing a love song about a boy. She was supposed to be 16-17 at the time. The very first time she sang on the show. It was magic!!!
Shelley co-starred with Elvis in three of his movies.
YES! You're right! Totally forgot Spinout! Oh my mom would of smacked me up side the head for that (God Rest Her Soul) raised me around Elvis and so many true great artists of the day.🤭👍
I was 5 when she sang this song. I would go to my swing in the backyard and hang upside down swinging and singing this song. Donna Reed Show.
i had a crush on her as mary stone then she sang this to me,still know every word.
That look by Donna Reed towards her tv daughter is the look of pride. Donna did not realize how good her daughter could sing. The Donna Reed show was an awesome 50's/60's sitcom. The person who played her brother did a song in the show as well called "My Dad" by Paul Peterson. It was also a top 10 hit. He was also in the original Mickey Mouse Club in the mid 50's. P.S. This was Shelly's only hit. She never really considered herself a singer. She was however, a very accomplished movie and tv actress spanning over 4 decades.
She DID have one album, which I still have, and had a lot of great songs on it. I never missed the Donna Reed Show, I had a MAD CRUSH on Paul Peteson!
Paul also sang a novelty song, "She Can't Find Her Keys". I have both of his songs. My favorite, though, is his tv sister's song, the almost unearthly beautiful, "Johnny Angel", which I loved as soon as I heard the first verse!!!! Like most kids of that time, I watched the "Donna Reed Show" almost every week. I must have been 8 or so when the song came out, but I had already loved music since birth.
Shelley's albums included: "SHELLEY"; "THE THINGS WE DID LAST SUMMER"; LOVE TRIANGLE (with Paul Peterson and James Darren).
Shelly Fabares was really an actress.
One of the biggest hits of (1961) was "Johnny Angel" by Shelly Fabares. This clip was from the 1961 hit television series titled "The Donna Reed Show." Donna Reed played the mother of Shelly Fabares in the show. Donna Reed also was an Academy Award for her role "In From Here To Eternity (1953). And became very popular as Jimmy Stewarts wife in the world renown Holiday Christmas Movie " It's A Wonderful Life (1946)." Shelly Fabares also was in many movies with Elvis Presley and played the wife in the 80's television series "Coach."
I had such a crush on Shelly when I was a kid. She was gorgeous and had such a beautiful voice. This was an iconic song of the early '60s.
Remember Shelley from "Coach"? She was Christine, his co-star/girlfriend/then wife!
God, does this remind me of when I was little. My mom and aunt mostly. Makes me cry now. 😢
P.S. Shelly Fabares played in (Clambake) an Elvis movie too btw. Just seen it last week since they're showing loads of Elvis movies cuz of his death on Aug. 16, 77.
Shelly did NOT want to record, the TV Producers told her if she wanted to be on the show the next season she WOULD record. The Background vocals (and Shelly really LOVED them) are Darlene Love, Fanita James & Jean King-the Blossoms).
Shelley Fabares was the only female artist to knock Elvis out of number one on the hit charts with this song.
Shelly Fabres also played Christine Armstrong on the sitcom Coach (1989-97)
That's her "mom" watching proudly. It was a very popular TV show late 50's to mid 60's.
The echo used on this song gives it that "angelic" sound.
Oh wow. Brings me back to my childhood watching the Donna Reed show. This was her one and only song
The mom, Donna Reed, was the female lead in the Christmas movie, It's a Wonderful Life. I had a crush on both her and Shelley when I was a kid.
Always loved this record.every time I hear this record. I think of my brother who passed away in 1967 at age 11 this was one of his favorite songs😥🙏 Thank You
She was 20 when this song was released February 1962, part of her TV show The Donna Reed Show. Shelly was mainly an actress. She played in the Donna Reed Show (1958-1966) and Coach (1989-1997) among many other acting roles.
I had such a crush on her back in the day
shelley is only one of two woman who made an elvis movie twice
These songs were so innocent back then, I love it
This is one of the episode of the Donna Reed Show and what you are seeing is Shelley as Donna's daughter and Donna watching her singing and is stunned that her daughter can sing so well and of course, wondering who Johnny is. When Shelley was on the TV Show The Donna Reed Show, the producers wanted her to sing, but she wasn't sure she could, but one day they asked her if she liked being on the show and of course, she replied of course, so they told her, well good, now learn that song, so she did. It was a famous song and she became very well known after that. She made many movies, and of course, with Elvis Presley too. She was on the TV Show 'Coach' as well. What a wonderful woman. Here she is in her own words ua-cam.com/video/Jz4VJWAJ1Fk/v-deo.html You guys are great. Thank you for lifting our spirits with these old songs as you are bringing them back to life. Love from Canada
Shelley Fabares (niece of Nannette Fabray) had a number of single releases & a couple of albums. Albums: "SHELLEY"; "THE THINGS WE DID LAST SUMMER" (Her version of hit songs by other artists); and "LOVE TRIANGLE" (an album with Paul Peterson and James Darren). Some of her singles: "JOHNNY LOVES ME"; "RONNIE, CALL ME WHEN YOU GET A CHANCE"; "BIG STAR"; .
Shelly Fabares is also married to Mike Farrell from "Mash." Her TV brother was played by Paul Peterson who has been THE force in fighting against exploitation of child actors, through his foundation, A Minor Consideration.
Mike Farrell play BJ hunnicutt in mash.
So innocent.
Love you guys! you are an awesome couple
This is a clip from the TV show, the Donna Reed Show, where the mother (Donna Reed) is watching her (TV) daughter sing and realizing she is all grown up now at college.
Super enhanced...yet a great effort from actress who didn't really want to record.
The boy on the same TV show also made a record and had a hit. The power of TV.
Had a crush on Shelley way back when, she played the teenage daughter on The Donna Reed show. Paul Peterson play the son and also had record. She was a better singer than him. I can still remember watching this episode and probably saw all the others.
She was in three Elvis movies as a love interest love her
She also was also an actress and she played on the Donna Reed Show (late 50's to 1963) and also on Coach (90's). She did not want to be a singer. She had a truly beautiful and angelic voice. She is still alive and married to actor Mike Ferrell (he played on MASH as BJ Hunnicut).
The TV teen stars of this era were forced to record songs. Shelley Fabares was a relectatnt participant but it did result in a lovely song. Well into the doo whop era with the backup singers doing the refrain (French for repeat).
Shawn &Mel this is from the Donna Reed Show. That lady that looks so proud is her Mother
I remember this song on the radio and from the TV show, Donna Reed Show. More though, this song reminds me of my friend in high school whose real name is Jon Angel. We were in high school over 50 years ago, and recently admitted we had crushes on each other....Never knew.
Please do the song that Shelly’s fabares tv brother Paul Peterson sang on on The Donna Reed show. The song is called my dad oh my gosh such a beautiful song and Paul Peterson sang so amazingly the words really touch you ! Also I believe that when Paul sang this song you could see true emotions coming from him.
who's mom didn't love this song, haha, such a classic, my mom said something like...she only did this song for the movie, she wasn't actually a great singer, but hey she pulled it off with hard work and studio magic, don't quote my mom on this though, I'm not a great listener haha
Excellent choice. No one on UA-cam has ever reacted to this song despite the fact that it's good, it's important to 60s pop culture, and it's very representative of it's time. Frankly, even the few reactors who are doing 50s and 60s music lack the detailed understanding of the early 60s to pick this. Good for you.
As someone else has already pointed out, her name is pronounced Fabray. This genre is the ballad form of early rock.
This is an episode of "The Donna Reed Show."
This was my mother's favorite song because my Dad's name was Johnny, although he was no angel.
Lol 😂
Though she recorded an album she says in interviews that she didn't record more because she didn't like the sound of her voice she didn't think she could sing.
Might want to give "Soldier Boy" a try - it was a Top 40 hit at the same time.
Easy on the Ears! It was on the radio like forever back then. Darlene Love and The Blossoms sang back up. #1 back in 1962. :)
IN HIGH SCHOOL, I HAD CRUSHES ON GIRLS WHO BARELY, IF AT ALL, KNEW I WAS ALIVE. I TOTALLY IDENTIFIED WITH THIS SONG BACK IN '62, WHEN IT CAME OUT. ------------------MJL, 76 Y/O
She also co stared with Elvis in two movies.
She is the only actress who played Elvis’ love interests in his movies. They were just close friends, but she loved him and still misses him. Sweet girl/lady.
eGood review, Some feedback from someone old enough to know. The last name is pronounced FABRAY it is French. The look that woman watching her is Donna Reed who played mother in the show of the same name, so it was a look of pride. Thanks for the video.
The look on moms face was pure - my baby is a woman now!
still remember the first time I heard this song
The woman that is staring at Shelley is Shelley’s TV mom, Donna Reed. Donna Reed was a movie star before moving over to her own TV show: The Donna Reed Show. Check out her movies: They Were Expendable, It’s A Wonderful Life, From Here To Eternity and many more. Shelley went on to star in the sitcom Coach.
That's her mother from the TV show Father Knows Best
Donna Reed Show
Whitey land was so strange and I lived through it! Creepy!
Hey guys the woman you’re listening to right now her name is Shelly February and she also played in the movie with Elvis Presley in the movie girl happy clambake and spin out yes she did three movies with the king himself
Originally Shelley did not want to do the song because she didn't think she could sing. She was told either do the song or she'd be out of a job. It's beautiful and she sounds like an angel. I'm so happy someone finally reacted to it.
In an interview, wished I remembered with whom and when, she said the show producers asked her to sing a song. She ABSOLUTELY didn't want to ! She told the interviewer that she didn't think she had the voice to pull it off. But, they never stopped bugging her and she finally gave in . That record was produced and circulated and went to the upper 10 of the Pop Charts. She was featured on American Bandstand for that song ! She was my 7 yr. old heart throb, I thought she was so beautiful !🥰
Thank you so much for doing this one. I was so in love with Shelly Fabares (fah-bray) from the Donna Reed show, to her Elvis movies. (Only actress to do multiple Elvis movies) My favorite is Clambake and her role as Christine in the sitcom "Coach". She still looks beautiful today. God Bless
Please react to "Born Too Late" by The Poni Tails, 1958, another sweet song
It's funny you say she sounds like an angel. Shelly said that she was mortified when they told her they wanted her to sing on the show, because in her words, she could not carry a tune to save her life. They told her not to worry, they'll make her sound terrific, and they did. 😉
I was in love with her when I was a kid, and her TV mom Donna Reed too. 💘💘
Love her and her in a few Elvis movies , but ultimately as Christine on Coach. Fantastic show that still cracks me up😄
She went on to play in the sitcom Coach from 1989 to 1997.
She starred in three Elvis movies
Michele( Shelley)Ann Marie Fabares actress and singer known for the "DONNA REED SHOW" and "COACH" won two primetime Emmy Award nominations. "Johnny Angel "reach number on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Has been married to Mike Farrell since 1984.
Donna Reed, best now now for being the wife of Jimmy Stewart in "Its a Wonderful Life".
Love this song 🙂
Shelly was in 50s The Donna Reed Show and 3 of Elvis Presley movies... Girl Happy Spinout & Clambake. I enjoyed her in 80s on One Day at a Time and in 90s on Coach
They were blown away.
Love it, and in keeping with Angel songs, Try Angel Baby, with Rosie and the originals, a The Crest song, Trouble in Paradise.
Love it! Please listen to Ricky Nelson
Darlene love and the Blossoms singing back ground, beautiful sound
The lead singer said she couldn't sing & never sang after this.
Funny thing : this was the only time that she sang, after that she said that she was afraid that someone would ask her to sing! (Excuse my french)
Love this song.. she was on the Donna reed show she was the daughter and I thought she was so pretty. She dated Elvis in real life
Donna reed and this is the Donna Reed show and Shelley played her daughter in the series
mel if you play this for shawn make sure he has something to wipe his eyes billy vera at this moment
I was around
She is also one of the few women who starred in two Elvis movies
Shelley claimed that she could not sing and they had to record this song one line at a time
I loved that TV show and she was my idol.
There's another song of that era Diana Renae singing Navy blue
She was also in the show COACH!
Beautiful voice Mel
How I wish we still had great shows like Donna Reed that the whole family could watch. She grew up on Donna Reed the later on she was a co-star on Coach. She also made several movies with Elvis and I think one or two beach movies. Beach movies were really popular back then and she was very popular. This song was a BIG HIT for her. I miss those innocent days...💔...This video is a clip from The Donna Reed show.
It's just NOT possible to tell you folks today, just what a monster hit this song was, in late '61, early '62 ! ---------The voices backing Shelly are The Blossoms , THE legendary backing group of that era. -----------------------------MJL< 75 y/o
The Blossoms with Darlene Love
60’s Music was all angelic
100 years from these people will be reviewed by the Japanese.
that's Donna Reed, with actorJjames Stacy, from " the Donna Reed show".-----------He played her HS teacher.
I was 1. Lol …but my older sisters listened so i knew this song too and we all loved it 😍
I had a crush on her after I saw her sing this on the Donna Reed show. I was nine years old! A long time ago....
I was already in kindergarten in 1961 in my old hometown of NYC when this was new on the radio. The woman and man are her parents on the TV series. It was called the Donna Reed Show.
