He passed away exactly 7 days before I was born in 1959. I went to the surf ballroom and to the crash site this past summer and you felt a real connection there. A sad one too. Without Buddy Holly we would not have the Beatles
@@IndoCalrissian @smartalek180 omg guys, you are so sweet! Well, not married yet, still don't have it in plans any time soon... And I do not know if it's good or bad... But I dance to the Beatles while cleaning, lip sync to Buddy Holly while in the bus :) funny how life is passing thru but some things just stay the same, having place in person's heart... If I will get married one day playlist stays the same tho! Sending you a lot of good wishes guys :) You are amazing and you should know that you made my day... 11 years later :)
I'm 51 the best gift I can impart is the fact that not only does my 20 year old know who Buddy Holly is and was but actually plays his music Love you Buddy
In his early 20’s Buddy was already a genius. How many rockers could use strings in their music. He was just beginning when he was taken from his life & his lovely wife! The music may have died on that faithful day but his music will live on forever! R.I.P. BUDDY HOLLY!
Simply sensational. Along with Little Richard, Chuck Berry, and Elvis they formed the four pillars of Rock and Roll. Forever shall they be hailed as the greatest!
I am 78 going on 79. I 😅was privileged to live thru those years -albeit not in the US of A. And though I am the "biggest" Elvis fan, Buddy Holly for me, was the co-inventor of the Rock n Roll thing we all loved and still love. Not to forget Chuck Berry of course! And Rave On is my "go to" song. Woke up 3 a.m. this morning with this song in my head. ❤
I've gone through classic rock, psychedelic, new wave, punk, heavy metal, techno. Now i am exploring music that was actually before my mother's time. That's what brought me here. Great music, 50s/early 60s!
I was born in 1942, so i was hit hard at his death. I attended the February 1993 BH festival in Clear Lake, Iowa, where he died. There I talked with Bob Montgomery, who played with Buddy in a duo in the mid-1950s doing Country & Western music. I've visited the crash site, his grave and home in Lubbock, and where he recorded much of his music in c
Can't conceal my delight that this recording was made exactly 65 years ago this evening, which was also the evening I was born! Thanks so much for that, Buddy ;)
I wasn't born until April of 1960 but I've said this before if Buddy Holly had lived he would have been a force in the 60's he was the Pioneer of music a great musician that went too soon one of the greatest.
If buddy Holly had not died he would have been bigger than the king , and I love the king. Buddy was so far ahead of his time , a genius what he was doing with music.
Not true at all but I respect your opinion. Go to Wikipedia and you'll see who inspired Buddy. There would be no Buddy (musically) had it not been for Elvis.
Yep your spot on you wouldn't get an argument from me. I think if buddy had of lived I think we would have seen one of the all time great musicians. To make the impact he did in a short time was incredible. Both two of my hero's.
ABGP 11 but elvis had zero creative talent except for presentation whereas Holly was innovative & a genuine musician so you point is ...... BS pure & simple
I was 11 years old in 1959, I can remember to the day, that Buddy Holly had pass away, even being just a kid, it was devastating and you know some 56 years later it's still a great loss... In our lifes we only get to meet so few great people and Buddy Holly was one of those,
One of the VERY few singers who could sing a rocker like this with real authority; then turn around and sing a ballad like "True Love Ways" with just as much authority ... Buddy was incredibly prolific as a writer and recorder, and probably influenced more musicians across the world than any other player/singer.
Buddy holly is what I was raised on I don't know what or where i would be without his music. From the time I could walk I was dancing to his music RIP buddy we miss you
A life truly cut short, He is great but I wonder how big he would have become if he hadn't died so young, He was a genius and did so much at an early age, He doesn't get the recognition for what he actually did for music and is by far the most underrated musician of all time.
Holly Hawk I was at my 9 year old Sons school concert yesterday (I live in the UK) and he plays the guitar, One of the songs they did was everyday by Buddy Holly (The songs where chosen by the music teacher not the kids), I think it's great that kids nowadays are still hearing his music and know who he is, It's a testament to the Man and how good he truly was.
"right on" Matt! Have you listened to Holly's Apartment Tapes? If you haven't you're In for a real treat! Honestly his raw talent and acoustic guitar sends 'shivers' down you're spine! Tell your son to keep playing the guitar, and who better to learn from than, Buddy's simple, but brilliant strumming. ( all down strokes) Amazing!!!
I don't think he is underrated at all, what he did for music has been well documented. Without Buddy Holly to you wouldn't have had The Beatles and many others. Try telling the likes of Paul McCartney that he is underrated!
Brings back great memories meeting Buddy Holly in 1958, I will never forget the shy face of Buddy when I caught in guard talking. Buddy enjoyed everyday of life!
This is my first time listening to Buddy Holly. I'm 18, I've been a fan of this era of music (50s-60s) for basically all my life, but this is the first time I've heard any of Holly's records. Can say, I'm pleasantly unsurprised, always heard good things about him, and they've been confirmed right.
And I'm even older...can remember this wonderful song, so full of life, coming over the school radio. Suddenly everyone was happy! I'm choosing this for my funeral..that should be a kick-off for the wake.
Created the future blueprint for the singer-songwriter rock artist in a mere sixteen months. His influence cannot be overstated or exaggerated and is never just hyperbole. Maybe not the most popular artist from that era but certainly the most important ever.
Like you guys I have loved Buddy and his music for 76 years now and I started playing guitar and working local pubs and clubs when I was 17 years old. One of the first Buddy songs I sang was Rave On and it suited my voice bringing me a following around my area in the north of England. Watching this video inspires me to have a sing today and Rave On is first on my list. I hope the old voice box is up for it lol. From the Raining in my heart to the brightness that you gave us Buddy, we love you still!
For anyone who listens to Cousin Brucie’s Saturday night show on 77 WABC in New York or anywhere online, RIP to listener Pat Riley from Texas who always requested this song
This tune sounds just as good as it did when it was first released. I liked to have seen and heard the impression this tune made on the young guys who were later to become The Beatles. Thanks Buddy and The Crickets! You guys were and remain king tone!
Buddy is up there in rock'n'roll heaven raving on him Richie Valens and the Big Bopper all shined too bright for too shorter time when ever a young kid plugs a fender 🎸 guitar into a amplifier Buddy is there ....
The world lost a truly talented musician when Buddy Holly died, to compound that Ritchie Valens along side him, it's certainly no wonder that they called that the day that the music died! I'm a big fan of Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens, they changed the course of music for the better without a doubt, I often wonder where we would be musically if they had lived??? Rave on is definately one of my favorite songs....
80 years and still love his music!
This song absolutely rips. The man was way ahead of his time.
I’m Nearing 75 years old and it brings me to tears when I listen to Buddy Holly… a pop icon…fantastic music….WE MISS YOU BUDDY !
me to000
Also almost 75...Warched The Buddy Holly Story tonight....cried for the last 5 minutes
Greatings from Portugal
He passed away exactly 7 days before I was born in 1959. I went to the surf ballroom and to the crash site this past summer and you felt a real connection there. A sad one too. Without Buddy Holly we would not have the Beatles
Yeah me too. Such a tragic story! R.I.P. Buddy
This one never gets old. Rave on eternally Buddy!💎
There were many but Buddy was one of greatest!!
That vocal opening is Buddy's hallmark and his alone
As soon as you hear that you know it's him. I've never heard anyone do that sound just like him; it's kind of his trademark.
Well Elvis tried but Buddy was cooler
The incomparable hiccup.
Truly one of the most beautiful things ever put on tape.
Sometimes I play that opening over and over. My favorite💗
I have no wedding plans for now; but one day, my wedding day- I will dance to Buddy Holly and The Beatles. Everyone will dance.
Eleven years on -- married?
Did u dance to Buddy Holly & the Beatles?
Wondering about this too. Hope you're happy and got to dance!
@@IndoCalrissian @smartalek180 omg guys, you are so sweet! Well, not married yet, still don't have it in plans any time soon... And I do not know if it's good or bad... But I dance to the Beatles while cleaning, lip sync to Buddy Holly while in the bus :) funny how life is passing thru but some things just stay the same, having place in person's heart... If I will get married one day playlist stays the same tho!
Sending you a lot of good wishes guys :) You are amazing and you should know that you made my day... 11 years later :)
The first really hard rocker, Buddy made Rock and Roll, his music will live forever, What a loss, will never have music like this again, RIP Buddy
My love for Buddy's music will never fade away ! Rave on... Buddy !
Not fade away
whenever life gets hard, i listen to his stuff and i feel better
Coronavirus brought me here. Rave On, World!
@@joelwillems4081 same. A month later! Hang in there.
perfect comment :)
"Every night before I go onstage, I listen to Buddy Holly. It keeps me honest."
-Bruce Springsteen
Same 👌🏿
I'm 51 the best gift I can impart is the fact that not only does my 20 year old know who Buddy Holly is and was but actually plays his music
Love you Buddy
Buddy's voice has the magic touch, that no matter which part of the song you started listening, it instantly captures your attention.
Thats right!!
the whole world should hear buddy holly!.......... give him the billions of views he deserves!!!!!!...............
You are 10000% right!
*DU TRES TRES GRAND HOLLY ....R.I.P BUDDY👍👍👍*
Hell yeahhh!
wonderful voice
Yes yes yes... the whole world listening to this song on their am radios. At the same time. Doin' a happy dance.
65 years…😢 missing Buddy today and every day 😢
I miss Buddy as well
Grew up on Buddy from the many Sundays listening to pops spin these 45’s. Pops loved him…. Live him too. So talented. Gone so young
Wish that i lived in that era! What a RAVE that eould have been!!!
In his early 20’s Buddy was already a genius. How many rockers could use strings in their music. He was just beginning when he was taken from his life & his lovely wife! The music may have died on that faithful day but his music will live on forever! R.I.P. BUDDY HOLLY!
Absolutely the truth. And Ritchie Valens was only 17 years old when that plane crash them the three away from us.
Rock on, Buddy Holly. Great talent.
Drivin in empire bay with Joe and Henry while listening to this cool song is fun
This game is fucking amazing
Facts
Say hello to them from me
My favorite game
@@jmoney4708 lol go Gen Z
How was he so talented at such a young age? One of a kind
I just love buddy holly music always have.
There is no higher accolade Buddy's talent than when John Lennon effectively told a reporter "no Buddy Holly, no Beatles" Nuff said!
that's a fact
Yep, although Elvis made John and Paul listen to music, Buddy was the one who made them pick the guitar.
And much better without some beatless😆
77 and still listening to Buddy 🖖
Simply sensational. Along with Little Richard, Chuck Berry, and Elvis they formed the four pillars of Rock and Roll. Forever shall they be hailed as the greatest!
I see you listed Little Richard 1st...he is often underrated
Yes,Little Richard often gets left out,I might add Fats Domino
and ofc Bill Haley and the Comets
A,nt it the truth,
@sonypony888 NEVER ,

Pleasantville brought me here. RIP Buddy gone well too soon.
We lost so many talented artists sad af they could have done so much glad we got memories😊
I am 42 and love this music God bless all 🙏
One of my all time fav Buddy songs! Love that my grandparents raised me on music in that era.
me too!
I’m 30 raising myself on this
I've gone through classic rock, psychedelic, new wave, punk, heavy metal, techno.
Now i am exploring music that was actually before my mother's time. That's what brought me here. Great music, 50s/early 60s!

1986, driving in my old 58 chevy bel air sport sedan with my friends listening to Buddy.....best of times!

Yeah, right. Buddy was great but Elvis took music and the genre to a whole other level. Untouchable.
Elvis great singer, but Buddy was a fantastic musician much more of a talent in that respect

Possibly the greatest rock n roll song ever. RIP Buddy - you died on 03-02-1958. That was 63 years ago and you're still missed.
This song showcases Holly's amazing voice. The first few seconds shows he could sing like no one else!
Holly Holly Holly Holly!
No one can imitate Buddy Holly. Others do good covers of this song, but no one does it like Buddy.
The single most influential song in the history of rock n roll !!
Sixty years ago tonight...keep flying Buddy.
I love this song
강산은 변해도 노래는 영원하구나. 안타까운 세월 많이도
흘렀네. 영원한 ❤
This 70 year old lady’s favorite of Buddy’s is True Love Ways. Love all of his songs but that one is #1 for me❤
We miss you, Buddy. You were great !!!!!
I was 11 years old in 1959, I can remember to the day, that Buddy Holly had pass away, even being just a kid, it was devastating and you know some 56 years later it's still a great loss... In our lifes we only get to meet so few great people and Buddy Holly was one of those,
I was born in 1966, so I never actually got to experience his music while he was alive. He sure is a legend.
I wasn't born until 1984, and the thought of losing such talent brings tears to my eyes still.
@@Neia1984 ....along with Richie Valens and the Big Booper too.
I was 15 - never forgot that day - Buddy Holly remains my favorite singer of all time.
This song is my favourite song it's the best
One of the VERY few singers who could sing a rocker like this with real authority; then turn around and sing a ballad like "True Love Ways" with just as much authority ... Buddy was incredibly prolific as a writer and recorder, and probably influenced more musicians across the world than any other player/singer.
It's hard to imagine the future generations not learning from our great ancestors 🙏chivalry seems to be a thing of the past💓
my music enjoyment is not completed if i dont hear a few buddy holly songs,man ican believe hes gone ,,was 6 years old when he died,but im still a fan
This legend was ten years ahead of his time. Rip Buddy
BUDDY HOLLY THANK YOU FOR THE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC ❤
Gorgeous song and timeless! 💙Buddy Holly 🥀💋
Man I was born in the 80s dam this hit different RIP 🙏 holly buddy.....
This song is perfect. The more I listen to it the more subtleties I find
He was a pioneer in rock music who inspired future generations of musicians. He left us at such a young age, but his music is immortal and timeless!!!
Would of been the greatest ever if he had lived longer
Buddy holly is what I was raised on I don't know what or where i would be without his music. From the time I could walk I was dancing to his music RIP buddy we miss you
I am a Buddy fanatic from UK and been to Lubbock. Best ever. Miss him so much
MR
Buddy you will rave on forever and i bet angels sing youre songs

I don't think he is underrated at all, what he did for music has been well documented. Without Buddy Holly to you wouldn't have had The Beatles and many others.
Try telling the likes of Paul McCartney that he is underrated!
THANK YOU... Vinyl for introducing to me to this gem.
I was born the year he died and have listened to him since I can remember
This song was ahead of its time, and still sounds fresh now.
Buddy Holly achieved more musical greatness in less than THREE YEARS than most musicians can in a lifetime! Clearly a musical genius!! #RaveOnBuddy
Brings back great memories meeting Buddy Holly in 1958, I will never forget the shy face of Buddy when I caught in guard talking. Buddy enjoyed everyday of life!
I don't think it gets any more pure than this
This is my first time listening to Buddy Holly. I'm 18, I've been a fan of this era of music (50s-60s) for basically all my life, but this is the first time I've heard any of Holly's records. Can say, I'm pleasantly unsurprised, always heard good things about him, and they've been confirmed right.
Good song to start with. Though his catalog is brilliant with gems, I suggest Oh Boy
Good on ya.👍🇭🇲🌷
The KING OF ROCK AND roll
Yes elvis is
Elvis, BuddyHolly and Farokh Bulsara (Freddy Mercury) are alive and John Lennon too❤
@@ursulahenning4507 none compare to elvis, sorry to tell you
I think Buddy is as much the King of Rock n Roll as Elvis; can't deny Rave On and Dearest and Everyday and a lot of his other songs are masterpieces!
80 years and still perfection of the gone to soon Buddy Holly
I was born in 1998 and I love this song by Buddy Holly!
Same!
Your mom was born in 1998
I'm a young pup at 38 but this just reminds me of my dad , love it
Me too x
One of the greatest on an opening in a song
Those first 3-4 seconds are magical
Perfect 50's hit!
Big fan of buddy holly

This is real Rock'n Roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1st ballot Rock n Roll Hall of Famer. Enough said..
And I'm even older...can remember this wonderful song, so full of life, coming over the school radio. Suddenly everyone was happy! I'm choosing this for my funeral..that should be a kick-off for the wake.
What an amazing performer Buddy was. R.I.P.

What a voice, what a sound .
Buddy and Chuck Berry are the most influential stars in rock & roll. They influenced countless others.
Top 5 greatest rock n roll songs of all time. The pace. The rhythm. The voice. It has it all before all was even a thing.
Rave on! Love it! Bravo!
Mafia II, the video games introduced me to Buddy Holly
RAVE ON is one of the best nombers, just too short
Jørgen Kirkegaard too sweet!!
This is rock n roll in its purest form
Buddy's best song.. Fell in love dancing to this!!
Buddy's best song. Went out dancing and ignored the girls, because I fell in love with this!
Well, I wouldn't say that I IGNORED the girls but.it made me appreciate them a little more!!
He's the best ever!
This tune sounds just as good as it did when it was first released. I liked to have seen and heard the impression this tune made on the young guys who were later to become The Beatles. Thanks Buddy and The Crickets! You guys were and remain king tone!
Buddy is up there in rock'n'roll heaven raving on him Richie Valens and the Big Bopper all shined too bright for too shorter time when ever a young kid plugs a fender 🎸 guitar into a amplifier Buddy is there ....
