    I think the memoir was published in 1987- these are from the 60s as part of her high school memories.
    She followed bands for a pretty long time and definitely went harder than Cathy and Stevie ever would 😆

    This makes SOOOO more sense when you ignore the title and realize the brief "5965" was the date of the letter. The Beatles vs The Stones was life shatteringly important in 1965...not so much in the 80s despite Lennon's passing.

    According to the description, Pamela (aka - Famous Groupie) included these letters from the 60s in her memoir which was published in the 80s.
    These are two British actors doing their best at portraying what three 1960s era girls could have sounded like, not an impersonation of the actual letter writers.
    Please stop dissecting the minutiae and just enjoy the presentation.

    Just wondering if they'll fix the title to the correct: '60s...especially since the exact date is even stated in the beginning of the video. This is not the best effort from the channel by a long shot, but they could at least get the title right.
    Usually, these are a delight.

    Typo, it’s 1960’s teenagers, not 1980’s teenagers. And 1960’s teenagers didn’t speak in a valley-girl accent, that’s the 1980’s. 🤦‍♀️

      Who cares if they didn't speak that way in the '60s? She's reading it in 2023 and I'm guessing no one said she had to read it in a specific way.

      The letters were actually written in the ‘60s but published in the ‘80s hence the references to The Stones and The Beatles, but the heading of the video does suggest otherwise!

    • @dawnkindnesscountsmost5991
      @dawnkindnesscountsmost5991 11 місяців тому

      Perhaps not, though they likely would have been aware of both bands (speaking a person who was a teenager in the 80s). Plus, the Rolling Stones were touring and releasing music in the 1980s, and perhaps would be even more likely to "repugnate" a teen in the 80s than in the 60s, and maybe even more likely to do so now than in the 80s. 😂
