    When Dick Clark passed away, Dion became America's oldest teenager. He's in his 6th decade of performing and recording. One of the last of that great 1950's and early 60's era He went on to record many albums later.

      Dion epitomizes "cool"---he knows he's badass but without arrogance--seems at ease and comfortable where ever he is!

    • @wankrecordsltd
      @wankrecordsltd 4 роки тому

      You'd look youthful if you'd never done a day's work in your life. His voice is fucked though

      @AnneEloiseOfCNY 2 роки тому +3

      Yeah! That Bronx swagger still knocks me out! I loved him when I was 10, I still love the guy now that I'm 70!
      Rock on Dion!

    Absolutely my favorite Rock 'N' Roll artist of all time. 6 decades of music and still cranking out albums, mostly Blues nowadays.

  • @spahjrp
    @spahjrp 5 років тому +18

    You had to be a kid from the boondocks working the fields after 10p listening to this on a transistor radio strapped to the back of his tractor. I was 12. It was a different world.

  • @roman14032
    @roman14032 4 роки тому +10

    the thing that always floors me about dion is theres always a moment in all his songs, one special moment, when two things happen, 1. the underlying tragedy in life is exposed (with my two fists of iron, but im going NOWHERE) and 2. simultaneously YOUR HEART EXPLODES WITH JOY!
    that is a mystery to me
    this song for example,on the surface is not deep, its youthful swagger, but then there's that moment that makes your heart hurt and jump at the same time
    there's something deep going on there,
    as an artist he touches something so subtle, so hidden deep in our souls, we can't even understand it, its primal
    ITS TRAGIC AND LIFE AFFIRMING!!??
    there is something deeply profound going on there but its to fragile to grasp, it cant be expressed in words,and thoughts or concepts
    you can only feel it, its a punch in the gut that feels good????
    its like those moments in italian opera where the clown on stage is suicidal but the audience is rockin
    i dont know what im talking about here, but , do you feel me?

    @jenniferkcro3846 10 років тому +27

    YO!! This is the best - Dion, is fantastic! I love that he still sounds great & you can just the "enthusiasm & joy" within, his performance. I also loved how P.Simon & the back-up singers, sang around just one "Mic", like a Doo-Wop group, back in 'the day :)

  • @morganrieder6281
    @morganrieder6281 8 років тому +16

    Back in the day, when this song first came out, I loved the guy and I still do. He's wearing dad jeans now, but he's still got that charisma.

  • @mitchgawlik1175
    @mitchgawlik1175 8 років тому +15

  • @gogreen1951
    @gogreen1951 8 років тому +23

    Dion is great!! You should listen to the song with him and Paul Simon. It's called New York is my home. Dion is from the Bronx like me and Paul Simon is from Queens, NY. they're both still on top of their game. And Dion looks great for his age.

    @davidhenry1763 3 роки тому

    It's a no brainer for me..My All-Time Favorite Male singer/artist, ever.!..His songs were the inspiration for me, singing in the shower....WITH the windows open.!(haha..lol)...His songs were also responsible for bringing me back to the most precious, special memories and experiences of my Life.!.His music also gave me the srength and balls to walk across the floor to ask a girl to dance..A frightening experience in itself.!..His music also warmed the hearts of many "chicks", allowing shy guys like me to even "date", and go "steady" with some of them.(haha.lol)Dion's voice was easily recognizable, even when you heard it on the radio or closed your eyes..It was the "CLASSIC" voice that represented the awesome and amazing songs and music of the 1950's...1960's..and the early seventies, even until now..He is also a great song writer..A wonderful, exciting, story teller , with a great sense of humor..If you ever had the honor and privilge to see him perform Live, you would know exactly what i mean...You must be special to have a Legend like Paul Simon singing back up to you.!..When God decides he needs this wonderful, talented, special performer and Human Being, to do a concert with HIM, for the Angels and all of our Loved ones and Family in in Heaven..Dion will be truly be missed,,but NEVER forgotten..His songs, music, entertainment...and his contributions in the music industry, our society, and to the world..As an artist and person...Will always Live on, eternal..in all the minds, hearts and souls that he touched, inspiring others while we were Blessed and lucky, to be part of his Legacy while he was with us in this world.!..Thank you Dion...for being you.!!!......peace&prayers

    I’ve always said the Belmonts needa be inducted. Desperately. Dion, Freddie, Carlo, Angelo, and maybe Warren Gradus who replaced Carlo and has been playing guitar for the Belmonts since 1963. That’s pretty impressive. Plus Angelo is still with the newest incarnation of the Belmonts.

    Not to be a buzz kill, but as much as Dion deserves his place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, so, too, do his fellow Belmonts. It's hard not to conclude that they were cheated out of their rightful place in the spotlight. Someday the backstory will hopefully reveal the truth behind this injustice. And I pray to God Dion had nothing to do with it. That would be a tremendous let-down.

      The fault is entirely on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They leave out so many people who deserve to be inducted, it’s not funny.
