- The Skyliners - Since I Don´t Have You (Live 1974)
"I don't have plans and schemes,
And I don't have hopes and dreams,
I-I-I don't have anything
Since I don't have you.
I don't have fond desires,
And I don't have happy hours,
I-I-I don't have anything
Since I don't have you.
I don't have happiness, and I guess
I never will again.
When you walked out on me,
In walked old misery,
And he's been here since then.
I don't have love to share,
And I don't have one who cares.
I-I-I don't have anything
Since--I don't--have--
You, you, you, you
You, you, you, you
You, you, you, you
(Yo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ou)"
I’m stunned that Jimmy Beaumont did not have a much bigger career. Fantastically gifted voice.
That is an incomparable voice. His falsetto is incredible.
Great guy
Janet Vogel Rapp hitting those high notes at the end gives me goosebumps eveytime, what a voice and amazing talent, God rest her beautiful soul!
Back in the 50s as a young teen with crushes on girls and broken hearted nights listening to the radio, the Skyliners' music spoke to my heart and gave it a voice. RIP Jimmy Beaumont.
Let's not forget the lady in this song, she had a tremendously high range.
Bob Anderson She should have had a verse in that song using such a range, then use it when it comes to the chorus.
Janet Vogel was the range.
And that's a fact
And that lady is "Janet Vogel Rapp" who was an awesome individual with beautiful looks and was a mother until she ended her own life,in 1980 and this happened by carbon monoxide witch is a very deadly criminal and left behind one son with an abusive father and it is because of the father that she had taken her own life may she rest in peace, miss her lots
I can somehow hit that high note she hits and ive got a somewhat deep voice
This was 16 years after they nailed it. They were so good. But imagine how good they were in the late 1950s!
What an incredible song. I love their sound. Nothing like the Classic.
Oh my goodness Jimmy sounded INCREDIBLE! back then, if only these timeless singers could live forever and never change, immortality should be granted to the LEGENDS!
Immortality will be granted to everybody in the next life
That falsetto is a tear-jerker for a man with a broken heart.
Works the same on this woman!
A song that has been my very favorite since 1959. Now Jimmy has passed away and thank God he left us his beautiful music. RIP Jimmy
10/7/2017....RIP Jimmy..
It's not a falsetto. It's Janet Vogel's natural range.
Rich B definitely falsetto from the male singer around 1:45
one of the best recordings of all time.
we oldie people recognize this song as one of the greatest to ever come from the era.
and please never forget that jimmy was one of the finest singers of his generation.
Jimmy Beaumont & The Skyliners. The real deal! What a beautiful voice and what a beautiful song. They don't make songs like this anymore. What a shame.
Here's a great live new vid a guy put up..!! Lil blurry but you can see Janet belting it out..!! ua-cam.com/video/ODIKx9dOmug/v-deo.html
You are right .
I watched a few American Idol type shows where a contemporary girl singer ruins Connie"s classic song " Where the Boys Are " in the first line by pronouncing " Boyees " instead of the rigtht way , " Boys ".
I’ve got a crush on this man
I don't know how many people are interested,but years ago,Phil Spector said that Jimmy Beaumont had the greatest voice that he had ever heard. It must have been in one of his normal periods when he wasn't completely out of his mind. I saw the original group at the Academy of Music on 14th st in Manhattan in 71, just as the oldies were making a comeback and to see these young people singing the songs was incredible! Jimmy was only 19 when "Since I Don't Have YOU" was a monster and now he's 30 and in his prime singing oldies? 12 years is nothing, but little did anyone know it,they were on their way as were many other groups that were cheated as kids. A year later they forced a Rock Station to change into an oldies station WCBS,and for almost 50 years there was no looking back. Probably the best time of my life. And definitely all of the pre Beatles groups lives that were part of that comeback.
Very cool to hear. I was born in the 90s but definitely have an old soul. I love the jukebox doo wop era music so much.
So handsome then and still handsome now, great song, brings back many memories..The Skyliners are GREAT
Idk why this song takes me to those times, like memories are vague, like I was around those times, and I'm only 30!!!
Still gives me goosebumps after all these years! Awesome!
Jimmy was one outstanding singer!!!
Jimmy was spectatular. Janet closes it with her range.
His voice just got better with time ,RIP..
Jimmy Beaumont is one of the finest crooners ever. Certainly in a class with Freddie Mercury, and I wish they had sung a duet because Freddie could sing anything with anyone. That would have been beautiful.
I feel he and Freddie look alike
RIP Jimmy💔 Thanks for the
awesome Music.. this genre
will never be duplicated🌹🎶
I come back and listen to this gem often. Wow Jimmy Beaumont could sing!!! And this particular performance of his is by far my favorite - my only complaint is the video quality. But his voice sounds fantastic. He uses that great falsetto and perfect melisma not to show off but to sing straight from the heart. Excellent song writing as well. Not sure who wrote the melody and harmonies (writing is credited to the entire band) ... but they really hit a home run with tune in every respect!
I love-love this song and his voice--and his handsome face!!! "This I Swear" is an all time favorite, also!!!!
Wow! I was hesitant that this performance wouldn't live up to the album recording. But having watched the video, the live version is exponentially better.
Brittny Paz I know! At 1:40 it gives me shivers.
@@crowseagull i clicked the timestamp and immediately got shivers
What a voice!!
That was absolutely flawless.
oh how I loved the skyliners back then and to this day. there will never be music like this again. I'm so proud to be brought up in the doo wop generation
There will and has been. That's no attitude to life.
wow,..this live version was right on point,..that handsome lead singer delivered with an exceptional voice
Growing up listening to this kind of music, makes tough to accept what passes for music today... or better yet, it makes it easier to reject the music of today. I need to get back to work on my Time Machine....
Agree totally, RAP especially is complete shite
Man, to put time into perspective! I remember seeing this clip back in '74 on TV, I believe it was on the Midnight Special program that ran every Saturday night. I remember thinking 15 years had passed since this song was a big hit on the Radio. 15 years seemed like a long time to me then, like ancient history, but I was very happy to see and hear the Skyliners again. Now here it is, 42 years later (than '74)! Several years ago my wife and I went to see the Skyliners when they came to our county in Florida (during the winter). At the end of the show I shook Jimmy's hand and told him I loved that song since I was 11 years old (when it came out) -- and that IMO it is the greatest Doo Wop song of all times.
My favorite song for all time. Loved the Skyliners, both groups and of course Jimmy Beaumont. RIP Jimmy
Janet Vogel nailed that last high note .
Incredible .
S T U NN I N G 🖤 Ooooh the sound of the trumpet...🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Blue eyed soul at its best!❤
This is what a song should sound like!
The Skyliners Are My All Time Favorite Group, They Are And Were Great Then & Now, The Music, Harmony And Band, Lead Singer Jimmy Beaumont Are The Best Of The Best! R.I.P. In Heaven Jimmy! Joe Black ( A Bronx Tale) Actor And Very Big Fan That Met The Skyliners A Few Times Back Stage.
One of the best songs ever written
Always makes my eyes water...simply stunning.
Janet Vogel Rapp. We will always miss her.
AMEN!!!!!!!!!
beautiful through the years, Jimmy and Ms. Vogel. Once in a life time and I am glad I live through this master rock piece! Thanks Skyliners. Louis A., NYC
That voice... Amazing.
At 56 yrs old.... I must say. After growing up in a family who's dad played with the great Guy Lombardo. This rates in the top 3
of my favorites of all time......
lead singer Jimmy is a singer of great class .....superb tone , range....feeling...all there ....so good.
william whitton He’s Dead
The late legendary singer Jimmy Beaumont had a powerful voice
20 years later,, outstanding. 2022 still listening to it, even better.
I am 25 in 2023 rn and love this song, insane vocals
My favorite Skyliners song...have always had a huge crush on Jimmy! LOL
Pure Gold! I don't care what generation you are from - this is special! Many memories for me. RIP Jimmy.
I love this beautiful song, his voice is just as perfect as always. GREAT !!!! x
Still sounds fantastic. Full of memories and emotions
I was waiting for 1:40 and when it came it was astonishingly on-point.
Still sounds great today :-)
One of the best songs ever!
Whoa still sounds as good as the original. Love this tear jerker.
For me, this song could go on and on. His voice is so strong, his range is amazing and Patty LaBelle owes him a lot. I will come back and view this classic performance often. Thanks to the Skyliners for a song that will endure forever!!
This is one of the songs that defined the music of my generation.
he is so cute to me. when i first saw a picture of The Skyliners, i saw his face and immediately knew he sang lead.
An amazing voice... love this song played it over and over again over the decades, and now introducing this beautiful song to my grand kids.
The best song ever..50s thru the present day
When I was a little girl my brother and I was listen to Guns n roses version of this song and my dad said, this is a cover and me and my brother was surprised about this fact. At that time we didnt had internet to check up this version. Later on dady passed away, unfortunally, and one of the first things I did when I discovered the online universe was to find this original version. What a amazing surprise, since then I am so in doubt about wich version is better... Love Guns n roses version but this is a masterpiece!
When the woman you love and have dedicated your life to - Walks out - Many of us question the rationale for even getting up and going to work in the morning. The writer of this song - And the singer who interprets his lyrics - Nails it - At least for me.
Brother Bruce The writer and singer are one and the same.
Enrico Sanchez You mean to say that Jimmy wrote that song? That's something that I never knew until you commented.
The writer of the song was with Jimmy and had just lost his girlfriend. He wrote the words, Jimmy wrote the music in 15 minutes
and a million seller was born and a classic! I still have the 45 record and the 45 record This I Swear. My favorites forever.
Thank you Jimmy Beaumont and Janet Vogel and all the Skyliners for the incredible gift you gave us with your music. I am so pleased to watch this video with Janet up there next to Jimmy. It's heartbreaking to think she felt the need to end it all. I wish the camera man had had some brains and focused on Janet singing her heart out throughout the song. Love you Jimmy, Janet and the rest of the Skyiners.
Stunning.and hitting the high notes with no problems .
The voice, the amazing voice, Jimmy Beaumont...thank you.
well am I the only 17 year old that loves 20s-70s music? xD
LOL no.
I sure do! I'm about the same age & I love older songs like this. it's very classic and in my opinion better than plenty of music today

No.
RIP Janet Vogel. :(
O would loveeee that!!!
Awesome!!! What a voice and so handsome too!!
Skyliners one of the all time best vocal bands of the 50's. Young Jimmy and his backups were like sounds from the heavens.
I love this song that sounds so good
That falsetto almost made me cry, and the end is just amazing. Good to see real talent live. Thank you for posting this jewel!
That was beautiful
That lead singer's voice.
Jimmy Beaumont RIP
Yes absolutely INCREDIBLE! so much power on those on those top notes, if only these LEGENDS! could be granted immortality to sing forever on stage
The great Skyliners the best there ever was.
Jimmy sounds better on this clip than the original recording. Listen to how he NAILS every high note. Not bending up to it like most singers. Listen to Sinatra, Bennett and other big name singers and how they are a little flat at first when going for a high note. To me the test of a great voice is one that doesn't cheat to hit high notes, they hit them with perfect pitch immediately. Elvis could do it, Streisand could do it and so could Jimmy.
we dont have you rip jimmy
Lady Wasn't so bad herself!! great group of voices! beautiful Music and great times!!
He had a spectacular voice.
I don't have plans and schemes
And I don't have hopes and dreams
I-I-I don't have anything
Since I don't have you
I don't have fond desires
And I don't have happy hours
I-I-I don't have anything
Since I don't have you
I don't have happiness and I guess, I never will again
When you walked out on me
In walked old misery
And he's been here since then
I don't have love to share
And I don't have one who cares
I-I-I don't have anything
Since I don't have you
You, you, you
You, you, you, you
You, you, you, you (You)
Remarkable talent. He's 70 and still hitting the high notes.
twj1996 He’s Dead
5 years ago he wasn't
Kevin Delos Reyes hes not 70 in the video either lol
He was so handsome
Since I Don't... really grabs you and lets you see that you aren't alone in the Lonely Hearts Club!
And he was really cute too.
stunning...
SUBLIME.......simply AMAZING!!
Still Nailing it through the years.
🎸💚
Stunning!
Oh boy, that man can sing! Ans the song has stood the test of time - just great, thank you so much.
Can't believe I'm hearing this for the first time 2 days ago. I love this song fr. Touches the soul!!!!!!
Great lead vocal.
This is the best version of this song !
Love this song
wonderful!
Wonderful song
Did not realize it at the time but the Master of Ceremonies if you get to watch another clip of this is the late, great, Clay Cole, renown D.J. and host of the rock and roll era. You might recall him in " Twist Around the Clock." 1961. RIP. Clay and thanks.
For all wondering, yes, that's Janet Vogel..This was a reunion tour
On this day in 1959 {May 9th} the Skyliners performed "Since I Don't Have You" on the ABC-TV program 'The Dick Clark Saturday Night Beech-Nut Show'...
Three months earlier on February 16th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; eventually it peaked at #12 and spent 19 weeks on the Top 100...
Four covered versions have charted; Chuck Jackson {#47 in 1964}, Art Garfunkel {#53 in 1979}, Don McLean {#23 in 1981, and Guns N' Roses {#69 in 1994}...
R.I.P. Mr. Clark {1929 -2012}...
Sweet.
Jimmy has a great voice.
For me 1974 ( I was 10 ) it was the best of times for my whole family. Oh how I so miss those times.
sounds such sweet
Jimmy Beaumont never lost his magic.
