I was born in 1950 and my family always watched Lawrence Welk. I loved the Lennon sisters! I had their paper dolls and read their series of books. They helped to make my young life so much more enriched.
Musical families just kind of absorb the sound! Our son was singing at two, and my mother commented she had never heard one so young sing on pitch. I hadn’t noticed. Mother was a church organist. My Dad was a singer. We always had music playing in our home. Lots of listening. It really is a language that is modeled, like learning to talk.
This is so sweet! Like her sisters, Mimi was immersed in music and just "got it" from babyhood when learning is very easy. I really love watching performances from years ago. As they sing, the girls (the older girls) are smiling with their eyes. I'm missing it these days. Wonderful analysis, Fil!❤️
I was 7 that year, and I remember this, because my entire family watched Lawrence Welk all the time! Also, Mitch Miller, and any and every TV Show with MUSIC in it. During Lawrence Welk, as my Sister and I got a bit older, we'd have fun by dancing (in exagerated, theatrical way) behind the couch, where my Dad was stretched out; making light fun of some of the more "old fashioned" music.....until Dad and Mom would notice us and laugh at our "performance"!
There wasn't much of a choice back then. My sister's and I loved The Lennon Sisters. My parents favorite was Sing Along with Mitch, which we were forced to watch.
How precious is Mimi! Coincidentally today is my birthday. I turned 5 on this day in 1960. ❤ Thank you Fil. 🙂 Your analysis is always educational and honest. Unbiased. 💯
The Lennon Sisters are now a Trio that perform regularly in Branson Missouri with Kathy, Janet, and Mimi. The two oldest girls, Dianne and Peggy retired sometime ago.
Amazing to see a little one so accurate. Definitely a genetic connection. I am sure having her sisters surround her provided the confidence to perform on stage.
I saw my first video of British Guitarist Analyzes when you had 13K followers. I hated analysis videos, so I almost didn't click on it. But I watched it, since I liked the song...and I liked the analysis. I quickly subbed, and 315K other people agree with me. You are special, and I've learned a lot. If at the time you would have told me that I would be watching the Lennon Sisters and their baby sister singing Do Re Mi....and that I would be thinking this is one of the greatest analyses you have done...Rock.
Hi Fil, What an awesome performance and I dare anyone young or old to top that! Mimi is just so cute and definitely holding her own with her big sisters to support her. Amazing how this performance is so mesmerizing and they are just all standing there doing their thing!! Lol… No hysterical runs, no dancing, fully clothed and just sound as beautiful as ever. A true testament to great singing and their abundance of talent. Such a delightful analysis for a Sunday afternoon. The Lennon sisters never get old, and have stood the test of time. Great analysis, thank you so much! You Are The Best… Debbie☮️
Your great with children Fil, and to think Mimi Lennon not only hit all the notes she remembered all of her lines to the song. thumbs up Fil and Mimi, 👍
That was a great performance! Little Mimi is so adorable here, she looked a little shy, but she did an awesome job singing her lines in this cute little song. You did an excellent job analysing Mimi's voice, keep up the good work! 😉👍💜
I remember them, Fil, and, I can't believe that two are retired, but three are still performing! They were everywhere back then. I was a child, but, Lawrence Welk's show was quite the staple in most households. Thank you so much for thinking "outside the box"...always entertaining. Stay safe and sane! Rosemarie ❤️
Never seen Mimi Lennon singing with her older sisters before. A little talent for sure, but she seems very nervous & shy. Thanks for analyzing this little Lennon sister!
Boy, this took me back to my childhood. I loved watching the Lennon Sisters on TV on the Lawrence Welk show & later on other shows. Not sure what was more fun... listening to them, or watching that smile of pure delight spread across your face as you listened.
i have a 4 year old granddaughter she loves to sing, by coincident she found a Microphone i had laying around and told me to plug it in ? How even did she know? So i plugged it in and played on the keyboard twinkle twinkle and she sung almost in perfect pitch with no hesitation which is crazy, usually kids don't like to have a mike in front of their mouth! I had tears in my eyes !
Another excellent analysis. I will quibble with only one point-the children of musical families will not only hear singing from the day they are born but from within the womb.
I think with children it's sometimes the reverse of what we think--NOT formally learning something can make them better at it. Singing should be a very natural thing.
Seeing the very young Mimi with her sisters made me think of the very young Michael Jackson and what he must have learned and picked up from his brothers, almost via osmosis, as young children do. Sponges, really! I have fond memories of watching Lawrence Welk with my Grandmother, so the Lennon Sisters are part of the soundtrack of my early life. Thank you, Fil!
Analysis of M Lennon's performance was evidence for that statement of music as a separate language. Leaving the only explanation as being the physiology of audio memory and mimicry.
I like the way you explain how the younger ones are listening to the older ones singing from day one...do you thing that is why the Osmonds all can sing and harmonize so well from early on on The Andy Williams Show???
I love your enthusiasm for explaining music and, especially, voice. Recent ones I've enjoyed include Joni Mitchell and Jo Stafford. I plan to watch the John Lennon one next.
Mimi is the real thing, and look how _proud_ her sisters are of her! (Edit to add, the harmony @ 1:38 is epic.) Totally agree with you about child singers. People post videos with, "OMG, listen to this 4-year-old killing it!" And I swear, before the era of ubiquitous pitch correction, 99 times out of a hundred, trying to listen to that so-called amazing singing from the kid made my ears bleed. 😬
Great video Fil. Mimi obviously has a lot of natural talent or a "good ear" because I don't think natural pitch can be taught to a little one that age. I could be wrong but it seems pretty natural to me.
Fil, the fact that you analyze so many different genres of music speaks volumes about your appreciation of all of the various songs from decades past to the latest recordings.
I think her "looking around" is actually her trying to keep up with her camera cues. There is one camera shooting the group and then a second camera cutting to her close-up, and I'm sure she was directed to look at the different cameras depending on the angle. So ON TOP of this being her first appearance, and her being only 4-5 years old, and having quick-cut vocal cues, she's ALSO either remembering stage direction from previous rehearsals, or paying enough attention to follow in-the-moment stage direction. SUPERSTAR!!! 🤩
Before I discovered the Beatles, our family used to watch The Lawrence Welk Show on TV. Of course the Lennon Sisters were regulars. Here the ironic part - John Lennon's Aunty who raised him was named 'Mimi' (as was my own Mother!). I wonder if Mimi Lennon ever gave any thought to that? Of course in my family all my cousins called my Mother 'Aunt Mimi'. John's Aunty Mimi had the last name of Smith as she was not from the Lennon side of the family - her Sister was married to John' father Alf Lennon for a brief period. That is all. Carry on.
My big event when I was 4. Went out to California to visit my aunt and uncle. They lived just a few houses from the Lennon Sisters. Janet was my favorite. I'm almost 70 now
The Lennon Sisters are brilliant. I always thought one of them reminded me of my tía (aunt), and I found that they are part Mexican from California! Representing! 🇲🇽🇺🇸
😆😂 The look on that little girls face! She nailed it, but she did not look comfortable at all. Wonder were they at now, I am going to google them after this.
Just wanted to say a thumbs up to you and your channel- I love all music, but I know nothing about how everything is put together- you are very clear and informative and with great respect for all artists, which makes it so interesting for me - and its good to see you totally enjoying the experience as well. I expect you have already covered the Lennon Sisters *Tonight you belong to me* which is a catchy little number. 😂Thanks again!
🙋♀️ Howdy again, sweetie. How fun that was, thank you. She’s adorable! Love the analogy to learning a language, just as we all have our differences in accents depending on geographic location, too. She’s growing up around perfectionists, so how could she possibly go wrong. An added bonus is that _Sound of Music_ is in my top 10 fave movie list. I’d be embarrassed to tell you how many times I’ve seen it. Wasn’t aware of your other video on them, so I’ll check it out. They’re smooth like butter, and the luscious tones somehow does something tingly in your brain, if that makes any sense. Finally, I always enjoy watching YOU enjoy what you do. The love of your craft is so obvious. Your videos make me smile. Take care, y’all.
I used to watch the Lawrence Welk Show every Saturday night back then and just LOVED the LENNON SISTERS. JANET Lennon ( the one on the left of the screen who was the youngest one in the group (except for Mimi here, which I don't remember ever seeing her until now) and she was a year older than me. I MISS them. After they left the Lawrence Welk Show, I never watched it much after that.
They let her sound like a kid and genuine instead of being surprised by an adult voice . Dont know how to explain it. Ive always liked them and have their page on Facebook. Thank you for for talking about them 👍🙂👍
Oh man Mimi looks terrified! She's a cutie, though. It's great to have talent like that at such an early age. Maybe she should have watched some Shirley Temple for inspiration. Great video, Fil!
@@cindi1313 she sure did! If that were me, i would have either run away or soiled my undies! I had stage fright all my life until i forced myself to sing with live band punk rock karaoke. It was fun! But i could see my hands trembling as i held onto the mic. This little girl got it going on!
@joannasunday - I still remember vividly my first clarinet solo in 5th grade. I was petrified , since I was singled out to do this, in between concert band numbers. I had performed it at the solo and ensemble contest, before a panel of 5 judges. But this was in the high school auditorium. I just focused on the back wall, and the piano accompaniment started and I began. I could not even think about it. I just did it, and got to the end. Looking back on it, GOD got me through it. I was almost paralyzed. If I had messed up, I couldn't have recovered. That's why I know there was divine intervention. About 6 or 7 yrs later, the Band Director asked me if I wanted to hear it. I was totally floored at how good it sounded. I just remember being in zombie zone mode. 😂
This beautiful family has so much talent in generations before and after, I'd be surprised if the lovely Lennon sisters weren't in perfect pitch in the womb.
Its so great ta know NOW, what we couldnt have known THEN about the very young in the bis? Art L was mentioned,along with most of the talk/performance shows having a few child prodigys gracing the stage during the 60s BUT?... who couldve imagined they would become common place on FB reels? I remember most being quite bashful, being interviewed after their perfomance much like Mimi looks here? Her exposure to a camera at home, (with sound) was likely limited then? Yeah kids, the 60s....when we looked up at the sun, with eyeballs melting down our faces and WE LIKED IT!🙃 Thanks Fil, for providing the ultimate audio 411, where we ALWAYS await your next syllable with great eagerness.😎
Michael Jackson was a phenomenal singer at a young age - incredible pitch, timing and expression. There are some amazing videos of him with his brothers and he sounds so soulful.
How I used to hate it when my parents would tune in The Lawrence Welk TV show. I wanted Rock 'N Roll! The only regular part of the show I rather liked was when the Lennon Sisters sang. I don't remember this particular show. Before he got on TV, Lawrence Welk and his band traveled around playing small venues. My parents said that they used to go dance to his orchestra's music in a very small town in Southwestern Pennsylvania. As I remember the place was called The Sunset Ballroom. That would have probably been in the late 1930s/early 1940s or the 1940s after WWII.
Amazing content to be found on this channel lately.This one and professor of rock is seriously expanding my musical knowledge base.Would love to see some Velvet Underground analysis maybe?.'What goes on',Pale blue eyes' or even 'Sweet Nuthin' from later years ? James Youngs book-'Nico-songs they never play on the radio' is beyond brilliant for sheer comedy and pathos.
She was probably sung to In Utero & came out singing. Sadly, she looks like her sisters her holding her there in place due to stage fright. Michael Jackson was singing from a very young age too. 🎤🎵
100 years before they were sending them up chimneys. Post war now we're into the new age of disposible income and attention to be fought over. Progress captured on film
FYI Fil, though the Lennon sisters were born around the same year as John Lennon, they are not related. Three of the sisters, including the youngest, are still performing, the other two have retired from performing in public.
Just a little add: I grew up in a Catholic household. We were taught the notes and scales in our music classes in school. When we were 9 and in the third grade, we sang the Mass in Latin. We practiced it in school, too, but hearing Gregorian chant every week made it easy (I thought).
I was born in '63 and loved the Lennon sisters. I feel so very blessed that I grew up in an era without pitch correction tech.
I was born in 1950 and my family always watched Lawrence Welk. I loved the Lennon sisters! I had their paper dolls and read their series of books. They helped to make my young life so much more enriched.
Oh, me too on all your points!
excellent
I immediately thought of my paper dolls! 🥰

My Dad was a singer. We always had music playing in our home. Lots of listening. It really is a language that is modeled, like learning to talk.
And just think of what a child in the womb hears for many months. There has *got* to be something to that, too, don’t you think? 🤔
I love the fact that you recognize excellence where it happens.
This is right. Fil has an open mind and is animated by curiosity and a genuine love of the art.
The Lennon sisters are a joy to listen to and Mimi is just so sweet you can't help but smile! Thank you Fil for another enjoyable analysis. 😊🎸🎵
I also looove her indifferent facial expression! 😅 The poor wee thing would've most likely much rather played with her toys instead 😊
This is so sweet! Like her sisters, Mimi was immersed in music and just "got it" from babyhood when learning is very easy.
I really love watching performances from years ago. As they sing, the girls (the older girls) are smiling with their eyes. I'm missing it these days.
Wonderful analysis, Fil!❤️

@@SamtheMan0508so you were forced to watch the Lennon sisters in retrospect ?😅
@@RonWesterbeek I liked the Lennon Sisters, I wasn't forced to watch.
How precious is Mimi! Coincidentally today is my birthday. I turned 5 on this day in 1960. ❤ Thank you Fil. 🙂 Your analysis is always educational and honest. Unbiased. 💯
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday! I was 10, and we always watched them on The Lawrence Welk Show, and I don’t remember Mimi at all.🤯❤️
Happy Birthday! 🎂
Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊 🎂
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for giving such a very young girl so much serious credit for her singing ability and her pitch.
Thank you,Fil.She really doesn’t look very happy,but,pure musical wonder,for sure…🎶💜🎶
She just looks scared. I’ll bet at home she has fun.

That’s SO good, and the little one is adorable. What a great performance!
Thank you, Fil!
She really is amazing!! All with, very pretty voices!
My parents always watched Laurence Welk when I was a kid. So I have seen the Lennon sisters many, many times.
Boy, this took me back to my childhood. I loved watching the Lennon Sisters on TV on the Lawrence Welk show & later on other shows. Not sure what was more fun... listening to them, or watching that smile of pure delight spread across your face as you listened.
This was Mimi's first appearance on the show. That's why she looks nervous.
Anytime I see someone reacting to Lennon Sisters, ...I'm there. Thanks for this Fil. I really hope you do more of them.
That was beyond precious.

I love how the two sisters are reassuringly touching Mimi during the whole performance.
I think with children it's sometimes the reverse of what we think--NOT formally learning something can make them better at it. Singing should be a very natural thing.
wow, the good ole days. 🤩

Fil, thank you for a wonderful music lesson many blessings happy Sunday!
Fil, thankyou . Just wow!👍💙💖💙🥰✌
The Lennon Sisters were huge back in the 60’s. We loved them.
Analysis of M Lennon's performance was evidence for that statement of music as a separate language.
Leaving the only explanation as being the physiology of audio memory and mimicry.
Wow, I have never heard of these ladies ,but my father used to play this song for me on his guitar . ❤
I like the way you explain how the younger ones are listening to the older ones singing from day one...do you thing that is why the Osmonds all can sing and harmonize so well from early on on The Andy Williams Show???
She is too cute! So impressive, organic, and adorable! Voices are so much better when they're not pitch corrected.
Further evidence that other than for an effect, trained vocalists need not pitch correction to sell records or please a crowd.
We sure could use performances like this today. Thanks Fil!
I love your enthusiasm for explaining music and, especially, voice. Recent ones I've enjoyed include Joni Mitchell and Jo Stafford. I plan to watch the John Lennon one next.

😊💗
"Music is a language" LOVE that.
Very impressive, they sound amazing. Great harmonies. Thanks, Fil. As always, Best wishes. Moog.
I really enjoyed this Fil.
I've always loved the Lennon sisters. Thank you for this analysis. :)
Stellar, stellar analysis! Thank you for this!
Great video Fil. Mimi obviously has a lot of natural talent or a "good ear" because I don't think natural pitch can be taught to a little one that age. I could be wrong but it seems pretty natural to me.
Maybe, though natural pitch was used before the word.😉 just saying 😅
As always really instructive and clear. Mimi looks terrified but the two middle sisters never move their hands.
Fil, the fact that you analyze so many different genres of music speaks volumes about your appreciation of all of the various songs from decades past to the latest recordings.
I so love your analyses, Fil! 💪
Looks like her sisters are holding her quite firmly to stop her from doing what four year olds do--fidget.
I think her "looking around" is actually her trying to keep up with her camera cues. There is one camera shooting the group and then a second camera cutting to her close-up, and I'm sure she was directed to look at the different cameras depending on the angle.

what a lovely set of juvénile voices, Fil..!,🤗🧚the baby looks worried..🥴 but professional nevertheless..!! Love you sweet..💌🧚
I’ve been at a performance when Mi Mi sang with the others as a grown sister. So smooth
🙋♀️ Howdy again, sweetie. How fun that was, thank you.

My family never missed Lawrence Welk, and we all loved The Lennon Sisters (I was born in 56)
That was just cuteness overload that one. Fil, you obviously took note of that as well, "she's got these huge eyes!" lol

Oh man Mimi looks terrified! She's a cutie, though. It's great to have talent like that at such an early age. Maybe she should have watched some Shirley Temple for inspiration. Great video, Fil!
That was my thought too, she looks terrified, but she got through it like a champ!

Thanks Fil my mom loved them. Love your analysis
Great
If not already done,could be interesting to analyse Judy Garland and/or Brenda Lee at this age,they were both child prodigy
Thanks
Fil, I really wish there was away you could hear my 6yr old granddaughter. Either way the Lennon sisters have always been amazing. Love your channel.
for gosh sakes do a Patty Loveless analysis. She 's so good!
If you want to have fun, review Amy Irving singing "Why Don't You Do Right?" as Jessica Rabbit.
This beautiful family has so much talent in generations before and after, I'd be surprised if the lovely Lennon sisters weren't in perfect pitch in the womb.
So sweet

What fun that was!!

Gorgeous child - super cute:)
SHE DID GREAT 🥰🥰🥰
Oh, by the way. Linc Wray was finally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. Jimmy Page did a pretty good rendition of Rumble!
Love it when you get "too complicated" wonderful video again! "Bang on!"
Quite a musical family. There is another fun video where the Lennon sisters sing with their uncles and their father, tumbling tumbleweeds…
