Now Bobby Rydell and Annette Funicello can sing together once again in heaven. RIP both legends!
When did Bobby rydell past away? From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I went to Disneyland when I was six years old in 1958. I was a lucky kid with the best parents. Great memories, thanks for the download.
Annette sang the way her personality was - untouched and natural. THAT is exactly what Walt Disney wanted and that is why he handpicked her. She had the innocence of youth - and was of her time. Pure, fresh, raw, girlish. She is remembered for exactly her character and that was vital with Walt. He wanted youth sincere, not made up teenagers... unlike the plastic, electronically manufactured of little pop stars today.
I love her dressed like her wore hair like her
I was lucky to dance onstage with Bobby, Fabian and Frankie Avalon several years ago. So much fun
Wow! What a wonderful experience that would have been!
What a great version of this song. BOBBY COULD SING ANYTHING!!. WHAT A VOICE!. the BEST EVER. Miss him. RIP AND GOD BLESS. AND ANNETTE .Y CAN BOTH SING AND DANCE IN HEAVEN. LOVE U BOTH. IM SO SAD THEY R GONE. .😢😢😥😥😧😞😭💯🙏🙏
God bless you Bobby and Annette, sad to hear of his passing today,4/5/22😔 love this great clip of another time and world.
Wish I had been there but wasn't born till 1970
What a doll. I always find myself smiling each time I watch Annette sing in the first half of this clip. Each time. And I don't even realize it, I do it without thinking.
Rest in Peace both Bobby Rydell and Annette Funicello!! The world needs you now more than ever!!
Bobby's voice is so smooth and amazing
What a charming sweetheart Annette was.
RIP Bobby Rydell. May you and Annette enjoy another Song & Dance in Heaven. Thank you for all the entertainment.
Bobby Burgess one terrific dancer!
A wonderful show and Annette and Bobby sparkled on this fabulous Walt Disney Wonderful World of Color Telecast! Loved reliving the moment.
The trumpet Player to the right of Bobby and Annette is Disney Legend Ron Logan.
Brings back some great memories. Loved Annette,and miss her. Saw her dancing with Bobby Burgess on this video. Remember them being on Mickey Mouse Club together when we were ALL much younger. What fun!!
Adorable Annette Funicello and what a smile Bobby has!!!
I think every guy of my generation is or was at the time in love with beautiful Annette.I know I was.And of course ya gotta love Bobby.
What a doll is right. So cute and what a personality!
This is a great version of this great song, in fact, the best version I've heard. And I've heard maybe around ten or so, give or take, including Sinatra's.
It's great to see Bobby Rydell in such High Def color! Most of his posts are blurry, black & white TV appearances. He's always good, but this is a nice surprise.
Watch Bye Bye Birdie! It's lovely, you can see him great there. Hugs, to ya friend! Have a groovy one!
Glad you enjoy the video John!
A time when life was simple. thank god for the technology so we can play and watch these legends over and over. Pour me 10 cent coffee ,put a dime in the jukebox , and enjoy life .
Thats Bobby Burgeses dancing with Anette he and Anette were mousekateers together
Yes, indeed. At this time, he was working for Lawrence Welk on his TV show and Barbara Boylan was his dance partner.
Dario Witer what about "Bobby and Sissy." 💗
Wow! what a surprise seeing the video of Annette Funicello and Bobby Rydell. Annette was always as cute as a button and sang that way too. I loved her beach movies. The star, undoubtedly, of this show is the wonderful Bobby Rydell. I loved how he played around with the hit 'Around the world' jazzing it up to give it a swing beat. This was a singer who always sang "out-of-the-box" making the song his very own like no other. There are, of course, traces of Frank Sinatra and Micheal Buble in his voice and this is what gives him that special edge. I am a humongous fan of Bobby's super hit "Bye, bye, birdie" with that ball of fire, the gorgeous Ann Margret. The kids brought the roof down with their number "I've got a lot of livin to do" and "One boy'. Both Annette and Bobby was passed away not too long ago will always be loved and remembered and appreciated for years to come.
And 💓 that point exactly because Annette Funicello was genuine and pure, honest.
This is the best kind of entertainment.
Thanks for uploading.
Back in the safe and sane fully functional America.
Sensational clip, thanks Lorene! Can't stop watching. Of course I've known about Annette since I was a kid in the '60's, and - as usual - she's wonderfully refreshing. Shout out to all her fans and to her (no doubt smiling down at us from above...).
Rydell, however, is a revelation to me! I'd seen the film version of Bye Bye Birdie in the past, but seeing a recent clip of the 'I've got a lot of living to do' sequence crystallized for me the level of his talent - he has MAJOR singing chops and style. And this live performance magnifies it further (like the clip of him singing 'All of me' on Danny Thomas's 'Make Room for Daddy', also on UA-cam). His ease with the jazzy arrangement makes me long to hear him sing the Great American Songbook just like Ella and so many other greats have done.
Anyway, props to you again, Lorene, for bringing this 5:27 of joy to life! :-)
Swingin' Annette counting on her fingers, so cute.
Thanks for sharing this special moment from Disney with beautiful Annette and talented Bobby!
Annette Funicello is a cutey!!! :)
Bobby puts on a show
I was in love with Annette from the Mickey Mouse Club days and remember seeing every one of the Beach movies. I knew a guy who was one of the Disney "kids" on the Disney lot. He saw Annette on the lot but didn't know her. He said she was certainly very charismatic. I was saddened to find she had MS. I also know the Sherman Brothers who wrote many of Annette's hits. Two very nice gentlemen. They liked her a lot.
R.I.P. Bobby Rydell
Rest in peace Bobby
So beautiful as she sang that song, was Annette Funicello , and as always, Bobby Rydell excellently sings his piece in classic style.
Great video thanks.
Your'e welcome!
@mistressofaminer It is a shame what has happened to one of America's true sweethearts. I am so glad that the first part of her life was so wonderful. We love you Annette and always will.
RIP Bobby, now with our Annie... God bless your souls, both of you will never be forgotten... forever young!
Smut existed in 1962, but it was not really mainstream. And, in this piece of early 1960s Americana, you had the natural talent and kid-friendly charisma of Annette, Frankie and Bobby. You're right: this is entertaining, and certainly better than the overdone, oversexed and tasteless stuff that they come up with today.
Rest in the Lord, sweet Annette... you will be forever missed. RIP
Thank you so much for sharing Lorene Faith. I love watching the lovely Annette dancing with another former Mickey Mouse Club member, Bobby Burgess. He was such a great dancer and as you probably know when on to be part of the Lawrence Welk show.
R.I.P Annette one of my first crushes
Mine too! And I’m only 22
Annette is so cute! Wish young women now adays had the class and grace she did.
The Disney parks need a show like this! Maybe at Hollywood Studios and California Adventure because they’re both old Hollywood themed!
A great idea! 😊
Takes me back to my younger days I will miss Annette
I am so glad you enjoy it.
She was just a doll.
Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Mariah Carey, Miley Cyrus, Li'l Kim and all of the other so-called 'music queens' of today will NEVER achieve the perfection of sweet Annette! May she rest in Blessed Peace with the Lord for Eternity.
They seem to be at the Space Place on a temporary stage. The spot was later filled by the Carousel of Progress, America Sings, Innoventions building.
I loved this clip...great quality, too!
Annette looks so...different. And I don't know why. She's still just as beautiful as ever, just different. Hmmm. And I always liked Bobby Rydell. Nice song too!
This clip is a keeper. For one thing, my wife is gonna love Annette's dress. I gotta show it to her.
She was so so pretty 😍
I like how the camera captures the young girl who seems to swoon over Bobby B at abt 3:24 and the girl in the white sweater at abt 3:54 suddenly seeing she's on camera. Great video! Thanks for loading.
Is it just me or can nobody clap to the beat in this vid? Regardless, everyone is having a good time in this wholesome piece of America past!
Yea yea love the way she says that wat a doll
I the the old days everyone respected ppl and holidays were real holidays andclean cut hair and dress bobby so happy and good sport and sings so wonderful and annett love it them parts look fun
@mistressofaminer It truly was a wonderful time. I was a young child in the early sixites and feel so lucky to have grown up in the sixties and seventies.
Annette is dancing with "BOBBY" - both were on The Mickey Mouse Club...
I love it
A true "million dollar baby" in a 5 and 10 cent song to paraphrase. Annette is gorgeous here without the ludicrous hairstyle inflicted upon her in the "Beach" movies.
Annette talked about that and said she had to have it that way for some reason. OK, I found it:
articles.latimes.com/1993-09-27/entertainment/ca-39715_1_annette-funicello
I have naturally curly hair, and so the minute I go in the water, that's the worst place for me. So for all the beach pictures, I wore a wig, and they used to spray it. There I was on the surfboard, every hair in place. And that just followed me throughout all the pictures. Even now, people will say, "How come your hair never moved?"
That was great!!
@ohhhwolfy I am so glad that you are enjoying the clip and thanks for letting me know. I adore Annette. She is one of America's sweethearts and always will be. So is Bobby!
i agree 100%
I always thought that Bobby Rydell was very talented, as a teenager in England I think the first record that I heard was forget him. I did not know that he was also into acting. Very interesting upload. I ,can see why Disney wanted Annette Funicello, she is the epitome of the decency of older America , or as in England at the time, am I looking through rose coloured specs?
michael berry America was pretty cool then, but rose-colored specs may play some part in it. But then, why not? Just enjoy!
There of course was a lot of difficulty for someone of color but it was a great time in America!
@LoreneFaith Exactly. I remember going with some of my South Philly buddies to a Phillies game in 1983. Bobby Rydel was there to sing the National Anthem. Anyone versed in music theory can tell you that the SSB is a very poor song. It has humbled many marquee singers. We didn't expect much from Bobby Rydel and just wanted it done with so the ump could say, "Play Ball." Well, Bobby Rydel sang the best rendition of the SSB that I had ever heard and still have ever heard.
Bobby Burgess.....he STILL works for the Disney organization. Hope he has a great pension package..
An excellent voice
Lucky girl!!!
Annette dancing with former Mouseketeer Bobby Burgis who went on to dance on the Lawrence Welk Show!
The girl at 3:13 is so excited to see Bobby Rydell but her boyfriend definitely doesn’t share her enthusiasm.
Bass player layin' it down.
That bass player is great, any idea who he is. What sort of beat is this and how can I find more bass riffs like this ?
@@georgiabigfoot ; Quarter Note “Walk” with various accents thrown in.
It’s swing music.
@@Johnnycdrums thanks for this info . I really like this bass player , he’s really into it, I wish there was music like this played somewhere in the modern world we live in
@alxndr01 Thank you for sharing these wonderful memories. It is very sad that Annette has M.S. She will always be one of America's sweethearts.
Thank God The Beatles came along soon after. But Annette is cute and sassy in this clip....
The people were having so much fun watching the show that the band leader had to convince them to dance.
I love the way Annette sang. It was wonderful. Not like the overdone singers of today.
@Jasonstreamline I totally agree! She will always be one of America's sweethearts!
Man she was cute
Did not know this footage existed.
@darlingpresleyrocks That is too funny! I had not thought about that. It sounds like Annette was way ahead of her time :)
I like her better in this style than in the later beach movies where she tries to sing the Donna Loren type ballads
@LoreneFaith actually Bobby's last name is Burgess. Bobby Burgess was my favorite on the Welk Show and was really cute in the Micky Mouse Show.
It must have been! :)
Totally disagree. He has a great voice and a beautiful smile.
Cheesecake so hot she could melt any heart just by singing one note!
Annette Funicello is the quintesential nice Italian girl.
The days when Disney was wonderful. Too bad that is well OVER!
@aeromilagro85 I don't think he looks like Michael York but I do agree, he is handsome and what a smile and voice.
She said "Tweeters Tweet". Prophetic?
Were the Elliott Brothers the house band for Disney ? Or do they have their own work ? They are really good
You could be right abt Richard Dreyfus. Who is the woman in orange who snaps a photo b4 Bobby starts to sing? Am wondering if the camera captures some notables. I recently learned these were Disney musicians who backed Bobby, not the Elliott Bros.
Only that Lorene says it was aired April 15th, 1962.
I have watched this video many times and I think I see a very young actor - Richard Dreyfuss - standing in the audience. He can be seen at 2:19 and 3:14.
Has anyone else seen him also?
do any 1 have da full movie to disney after dark if u do please put it n order on here
THE HOTTEST GIRL NEXT DOOR...........EVER....AND WITH A GREAT HAIRDO HERE, UNLIKE THE HIDEOUS HAIRSTYLE SHE WAS MADE TO EFFECT IN THE BEACH MOVIES
Lovely video : ) Does anyone happen to know the date in which this was filmed?
This will be us when we time travel someday. Haha XD literally best moment and we weren't even born yet.
I heard it was filmed in 1961 and released in 1962.
1:39 Let the twitters tweet??? Did they have Twitter back then?? haha!!
@terrryc Bobby Rydell did not have to impersonate anyone else. He was a star and very popular for himself and had several hits of his own. The Bobby that Annette was dancing with was known way before The Lawrence Welk show. He was a fellow child actor of Disney films and was in Song of the South and So Dear To My Heart. His last name was Driscoll.
A Wayne Newton clone by the sound of it.
Poor Annette could not sing very well, but she was indeed an American original.
she has a tiny dancer body!.
After 1985, music has taken a nose dive into a pile of crap.
Annette never looked cuter....Bobby Rydell impersonates BobbyDarin, and Annette dances with that other Bobby from the Lawrence Welk Show....Los Angeles must have been a VERY small scene in those days...
