I could listen to her talk all day and night long.... she is graced with the most wonderful voice ever, be it singing or just speaking...had the most awesome crush on her growing up....
It's like velvet...there's never been anyone else who sounded like her. She could make any song interesting, but when she got hold of one worthy of her voice, look out.
The batman episode with Julie Newmar and Leslie gore is one of favorites, when they kidnapped him catwomen tells her henchmen to hide Robin in a room in their cat layer, on the door there's a big sign that reads do not disturb Robin's sleeping,
Lesley appeared on this episode of Mike Douglas on January 10, 1967. Her Pussycat episode on Batman was originally broadcast on January 19, 1967, and included these classic lines. Pussycat : I wanna be alone with you, Robin. Robin : Alone with me? But why? Pussycat : I can see a very important part of your education has been grossly neglected.
Thanks to the idiots at Mercury Records that shelved her 1967 *Magic Colors* album for DECADES... Since it's release, it's regarded as a classic--the album that could have saved her career!
Thank you so much for posting this terrific clip featuring Lesley's '67 performance of her hit, "California Nights"! Just so great to see this again after so many years.
It's really nice to find a clip with an interview and a song, and hearing Lesley talk about her castmates and the producer/writer. Glad I found this video. I always found "Pussycat" to be a fun addition to that episode of the Batman show, even though Julie towered over her.
How great to see this - I have seen her in person many times, but finding early appearances is not so easy - I only recall seeing her lip sync this on BATMAN and then, very shortly after that it was a big Hit. Lesley deserved more hits, and she continued to record interesting records, but times were changing and pop music was getting a Harder edge to it - nevertheless she was a solid singer and I wish she was still with us ~

I wasn't HER that was uncomfortable with it. You can tell here she was totally fine with it. It was the guy who cut it out that didn't like it@@josephforest7605

Brooklyn NY baby!
Mike Douglas was all class. Didn’t make his talk show about him like others do now. He listened and let his guests have a good share of the spotlight
I fell in LOVE with her watching this episode of Batman.
Just loved Her. Just beautiful and very talented. Love this song.
SHE JUST HAD THAT VOICE!! TALKING AND SINGING!
Brooklyn!
Holy cow Batman it's Lesley Gore what a beautiful voice and a beautiful person
3:30 The producer that stopped 'the kiss' was Howie Horwitz...Lesley Gore's uncle.
HMMMM
This was such a beautiful song! Back when California was beautiful, too. Great time to be alive except for Vietnam.

I remember Lesley on Batman singing this, I fell in love with the song. I still love it! RIP Lesley.
Leslie is gorgeous.
She is only 20-21 here! What class act.

Great treat. Thanks so much. She was really the whole package.

Lesley's last hurrah with superstardom. No more hits after this.
Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows.
* When she did that song in movie Ski Party it was big break for song-writer Marvin Hamlisch! ☺
Pussycat will always be my favorite pussycat
I swear I have the same personality as her
A big wolf whistle from me❤️❤️❤️🤩
Love .ike Douglas tv show
She was so beautiful….poor choices personally. Sad the things you find out later in life.

I wish I could have met her. Fantastic singer and actress she is. Sure miss Lesley Gore. Her songs will live on forever. RIP Lesley Gore.
such a little sweetheart-- i didnt realize shes 5 foot nothing
I wish they'd quit interrupting her.
HOLY GRAVY 🤣💀
LOL!!!!! love it ~
I used to get Lesley Gores Patty Duke mixed up. They do look alike
Poor Patty Duke suffered from mental problems. What a shame.
That's very interesting...yeah you're right. Think I've subconsciously thought that too.
Makes me sad that they cut the kiss scene would’ve been super cool
She may have not been comfortable , with the kiss .
@@josephforest7605 I didn’t get the sense that she was uncomfortable with it at all.
I wasn't HER that was uncomfortable with it. You can tell here she was totally fine with it. It was the guy who cut it out that didn't like it@@josephforest7605
i had such a crush on her
it was so sad that she had to stay closeted for so long
Me too, yet I don’t support that lifestyle. I was devastated. Unhealthy choices.
This is before she came out.
Is this the Mike Douglas show?
Yes it is
wow mike douglas was interesting even for this preteen
THE. AMERICAN WOMAN.
Holy sheep shit Batman, Robin laid an egg!
welp.... she sure did try to hit "the supreme" notes.... nice song though.....for a few seconds.
Too bad it's lip synch!
