"Happy Together" was a number one hit for The Turtles in 1967. It's one of the songs that defines the sixties, imo. When you're ready for more from The Turtles, check out some of these classics: "Elenore", "You Baby", "You Showed Me", "She'd Rather Be With Me", and "It Ain't Me Babe".
Another great group from the 60's. The Turtles are an American rock band formed in 1965. "Happy Together" is their biggest hit in 1967. But they had a lot of great songs such as "It Ain't Me Babe", "Let Me Be", "You Baby", "Grim Reaper Of Love", "Can I Get To Know You Better", "She'd Rather Be With Me", "You Know What I Mean", "She's My Girl", "Elenore", "You Showed Me" etc.
I have 5 kids ranging in ages 13-36 and I used to sing it to everyone of them to get them to sleep when they were babies :) Always loved this song! Keep On Rockin'
My goodness you guys are taking us all on a "Magic Carpet Ride." I was 13 years old in 1967 when this song came out. We were all listening to this on our AM transiter radios all summer long. This song has stuck with me all these years. And here I am at 68 years old with 100's of others watching you two enjoy the era and the Glorius music of our youth. Just Awesome!
I just turned 60 so I was a little tyke when this came out, but I am the baby of four kids and the AM radio was playing incessantly in our house. Great memories!!
Believe it or not, I saw "The Turtles" at an outdoor park, sitting on a blanket, on a nice sunny day. There were three bands that day. I saw this song live. I also saw the Kingsman perform "Louie Louie" as well as Paul Revere and the Raiders perform "Indian Reservation". Paul Revere's keyboards were built into the front of an old Ford Mustang. Those three bands, all on that same day, sitting on that same blanket. This was years ago of course. Trivia fact ->The Turtles founder, Mark Volman, wrote music for the band "Duran Duran". On edit....it was so long ago, I forgot that I also saw Herman Hermits sing "There's a kind of Hush" on that same day as well. It was four bands now that I recall.
HAPPY TOGETHER, just one of there greatest hits. I listened to the turtles, growing up. Still listen to these classics today. The best music ever to played, sorry today's music, has no comparison to these classics. Glad you appreciate great music at its finest.
You guys need to check out 'The Association" and "Every Mother's Son" from roughly the same time period. Great bands. Music from the 60s and 70s is the best. Keep on listening to it, please.
Some surprising online info on the song: "Despite what the title implies, this is not a song about a couple in love. According to Gary Bonner, who wrote the song with Alan Gordon, the song is about unrequited love. Our desperate singer wants the girl to "imagine how the world could be so very fine," proposing what would happen "if I should call you up." The line in the fadeout, "How is the weather?" is when he realizes they will never be more than passing acquaintances, as he resorts to small talk to keep from bursting into tears."
This is the music I grew up with. And I'm thankful to my mam for having us listen to this kinda music. Which is just a little before my time. When these were in the charts, I would have been a baby. My teenage years were the late 70s,(more fabulous music)❤🎶🎤🇬🇧
Happy Together is one of the most contagious songs ever written. Another song not often heard anymore is "You Baby" a "so 1965" sounding song with the electric twelve string guitar.. The music of the 1960's was so damn fun. I saw the two front men of the Turtles in an oldie s concert in 1986, with Gary Lewis and the Playboys [well, one playboy and some new guys], the Buckinghams and the Grass Roots, all famous 60's bands.
Another happy go lucky Folk Pop band from this era is the Lovin' Spoonful. They had many great hits. "Daydream", "Do You Believe In Magic" and "Summer In The City" are good starters.
A huge #1 song in 1967. Depending on which chart you look at, "Happy Together" was either the #1, #2, or #3 song of the year. No matter how you measure it, it was one of the top 5 songs of 1967. The Turtles had a short, but productive run as a pop group, with hits like "It Ain't Me Babe," "You Baby," "She'd Rather Be With Me," "You Showed Me," "Elenore," and "She'd Rather Be With Me." By the 1970s, their star had fallen and the two front men of the group dissolved the group and went off and formed a new, more progressive group called "Flo and Eddie," which developed something of a cult following. But they never enjoyed quite the same commercial success as The Turtles. In an age when the charts were dominated by the British Invasion from across the ocean and the Motown sound here at home, The Turtles were one of the few American bands that broke through and had huge success.
the Turtles made great music, and were also a lot of fun. You should watch them perform live. Try a song called "She'd Rather Be With Me", or "Outside Chance"
These guys were fun in concert. I saw them in the late 90s along with a few other "oldies" groups but the Turtles clowned around on stage, engaged the audience and put on a really good show. By far they were my favorite group of the night.
I sang "Happy Together" to my son when he was very young, whenever he was sad. It can pick up sadness and make you feel someone loves you and you are not alone.
This is y'all's theme song, Jacksons. One of the joys of experiencing music with the two of you, is to see your fully alive ears, but also your fully alive love for music and each other. And your fans too, it would appear. It was a blessing to grow up with such uplifting music all around us. And it gives me, and many others, I suspect, a particular joy to see that the music is not disappearing down the memory hole, but being given a new life, a second and third life. In a word, immortality. Long may your uplifting show thrive! The Turtles were associated with Frank Zappa, and I got to see an iteration known as Flo & Eddie, who were the lead singers of The Turtles. Intellectuals with good hearts. Their other hits are worth a listen, but this one is one-of-a-kind special. May you always be happy together.
The Turtles actually performed in the multipurpose room at my alma-matter, Granada Hills High School...when I was a student!! I graduated in Winter 1963!! ❤️
This was one of my favorite songs back in the day! Great melody, great vocals ... What's not to like?! And thank you two, as always, for a great reaction ..
That has always been one of my favorite songs. It was wonderful getting to see you experience it for the first time. So glad that you liked it. Certain songs mean so much to me and hold so many memories, and when I see them being taken out and enjoyed again and respected, it makes me feel really happy. :) Thank you!
Love this song! When my son was little this song was making the rounds on MTV and vh1, anytime it came on he would come running to listen , thx for playing it...♡
Met my husband in 1967. And yes this song was very popular. One of my favorites. We didn’t marry until 1971. 51 years later….we are still happy together!
I love your reactions. When you feel 'em, you feel 'em. A good song is a good song, no matter how old it is, or the genre. You guys make me smile, and I appreciate it. Peace.
Damn, this takes me back! I was a teenager then, and adored this song. It represented a time and how, and where, I was at that time. Thank you guys immensely. Robert, 73, UK.
I remember this song was everywhere in the mid-80s because it was featured on some movie soundtrack and became a hit again. It was the one with John Malkovitch going into space. I think the Monkees were also having a resurgence at the same time as their show was back on TV again. It was a great time for music new and old right at that moment.
I really love you two. I just hope that you have a great live together. Thanks for playing this. I am 76 years old and this was the music during my days in the US Navy and stationed at Pearl Harbor on a submarine. We took reel to reel to sea and played songs if the 60's all of the time in the crews mess. Love this stuff. Thanks. Love your style
The Turtles were an interesting band perpetually at odds with their record label. Here they took a song that many other bands had turned down because it was too sappy, and they turned it into a huge hit, still their signature song. But while they wanted to write their own songs and change their sound as music changed, their record label wanted them to just keep buying more songs like Happy Together. They wound up mocking the song with the song "Eleanor" which became their second biggest hit. But it comes from an album called "The Battle of the Bands" in which each song is supposed to have been recorded by a different band in a different genre. They were also one of the funniest bands of the 60's with a lot of tongue in cheek songs, like their surf song "Surfer Dan" or "I'm Chief Kamanawanalea (We're the Royal Macadamia Nuts)" by Chief Kamanawanalea and the Royal Macadamia Nuts. The two main Turtles have been together since the 60's, for a while as Flo and Eddie and as a radio announcers in California, as back up singers on an amazing number of songs, and for the last decade or so as the hosts of an oldies tour (called the Happy Together tour) in which they perform with 5 or 6 other bands from the 60's each performing 5 songs (because they are in their 70's by now, except for the Cowsills who were children stars). They were holding the tour up until the pandemic. I don't know if they will start it up again.
I just wanted to say I appreciate your reaction to this song. My father is the guitarist of The Turtles, Al Nichol. I’ll be showing this to my father to let him know people still appreciate his music years later. Thanks for the reactions you guys give. I love how genuine they are. If you want to check out another turtles song, I recommend Elenore.
The Turtles were part of the groups from The British Invasion! “ I was in love with all the song’s from these great singers in the 60’s, I was 17 when this song was on the radio. 👍🥰🌺🌹🌹
Saw Them in Concert in 1985 with, The Buckinghams, Grassroots and Gary Lewis and the Playboys, all headliners from the 60's early 70's. A beautiful night. Happy Together was the Tour's title.
Written by Gary Bonner the group got it from a scratched Acetate. The only recording they did with Chip Douglas before The Monkees spirited him away for their Headquarters album. He was replaced by the Leaves Jim Pons.
So simple so clear beautiful clever and very powerful song. Never gets old to me anyway. Much respect to know that there are people like me out there that can enjoy so much music from different generations different titles. Hey stay happy guys❤
two of the original members, including the lead singer, still tour to this day as a duo called Flo and Eddie. they played at our local fair a few years ago
The lead singer Howard Kaylan is a great friend of mine and we've been friends on social media for over 10 years. When I met him backstage at a concert in 2017 it was exactly 50 years after he met The Beatles, Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones, and Jimi Hendrix all on the same night in 1967. Then by the end of the concert.. I ended up being on stage with him and some of the other acts, singing this song ☮️
The Turtles has an impressive string of hits. "Elenore" is also one of my favorites. There is a lot to hear in this rabbit hole. I'm on a crusade to expose you to one of the best pop groups of the '70s: The Grass Roots". They had a string of hits from 1967-1975. Start off with "Midnight Confessions" here's a link (ruclips.net/video/k8qvOOQl1SM/видео.html ). The video isn't great but it's the original version of the song. It has an iconic opening bass line and great horn arraignment.. They're second hit is "Let's Live For Today" (ruclips.net/video/mZkT9jbzRwY/видео.html) which was very popular with the soldiers in Viet Nam. There are many more great songs and once you hear these, you'll want to hear more. This is also a rabbit hole very worthy of your time.
I was 12 when this song came out. Although I didn’t understand the words back then (I‘m German) I loved the song because of its positive vibes! Beautiful song!
Saw these guys at a hotel with Micky Dolenz from the Monkees. As I'm talking to Micky, singer Howard passes brushing by me saying "out of my way". Saw him lobby 10 minutes later and he apologized and was so nice took a picture with me and signed autographs.
It's so great to see these songs being shared for new generations to discover and enjoy. ❤️
Agreed! In my humble opinion the music of the 60's was the greatest🔕🎸 decade in rock & roll history.
@@Mr54nomore i AGREE AND SO DO MANY OTHER PEOPLE!!

"Elenore Really" I have not heard that song in over 30 years... :-)

🥰
My Daughter and I used to dance together to this song..when she was little. I still tell her.. it's a song about her .

Don't tell me that she has to fall for him based lol on how he winning her over with this jam
yup..unrequited love
Elenore is another big hit if theirs, brilliant voices and harmonies ❤️
One of my favorite songs from the Turtles.

I've loved this song since I was a teenager, so happy and uplifting!

Loving spoonful was my 2nd concert I went to back in 1971. Brings back my youth.

When I was a teenager my boyfriend, later husband, loved this song so I guess it was our song. It reminds of him everytime I hear it.
I pray that you guys are happy together for all your lives 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Great react 👍🏻
The Turtles, Spanky and Our Gang, the Association. So many good groups.
the Turtles made great music, and were also a lot of fun. You should watch them perform live. Try a song called "She'd Rather Be With Me", or "Outside Chance"
I was lucky enough to see them perform live at UMass in 1967. I was a Freshman.
They put on an amazing show.

Another great upbeat song from this era is “Double Shot of My Baby’s Love” by The Swingin’ Medallions.
i like how it starts - If i should call you up - invest a dime ......great line
Gotta do "She'd Rather Be With Me"--another of their many classics.
Jimmie Rodgers "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine"
..A Must Hear Classic.
I saw them once...GREAT performance and show. Thye really made the audience feel like they were a part of the show...was a good night
This is one of my FAVORITE 60's songs! I'm so glad you like it.
I sang "Happy Together" to my son when he was very young, whenever he was sad. It can pick up sadness and make you feel someone loves you and you are not alone.
THX! Awesome track one of the hundred most iconic songs of the 60's. Love the "flower poweresque" and Beach Boysesque atmospheres. A treat.
"call you up, invest a dime". That dates it pretty well! Peace, Love!
I love this song so much , its just so happy , it makes you feel so good and easy to sing too and how you feel about someone you love, so innocent

No matter the genre the 60's gave us music that is just as awesome today as it was more than half a century ago. So many happy memories of this song!
Finally !!! someone reacting to the Turtles one of the best Iconic bands from the 60's
One of my all time favorites. So glad you liked it. Thankyou. ❤️🎼🎸
The Turtles actually performed in the multipurpose room at my alma-matter, Granada Hills High School...when I was a student!! I graduated in Winter 1963!! ❤️
Happy little tune of the 60's. Takes me back to the days of mini skirts and Peter Max posters.
This was one of my favorite songs back in the day! Great melody, great vocals ... What's not to like?! And thank you two, as always, for a great reaction ..
I love a lot of the songs from this era including this one.I grew up listening to it as well as the songs that came after

Have you noticed how great and romantic the music was back in the day.
Your reactions to the oldies are fantastic. You guys seem so happy together. Much love.
THIS song was played & sang by every teenager from 1967 thru the early 70's. It was everywhere! Went straight to our DNA, baby!
I remember this song was everywhere in the mid-80s because it was featured on some movie soundtrack and became a hit again. It was the one with John Malkovitch going into space. I think the Monkees were also having a resurgence at the same time as their show was back on TV again. It was a great time for music new and old right at that moment.
That movie was making Mr. Right...with john malkovich in 1987 ♥️
Turtles are great. So are the sixties!
I really love you two. I just hope that you have a great live together. Thanks for playing this. I am 76 years old and this was the music during my days in the US Navy and stationed at Pearl Harbor on a submarine.

Since you guys are doing this era, please listen to “Get Together” by The Youngbloods. Such a great song. Such a great message.
What Great awesome and beautiful songs
Back in the days 👍👍
Definitely Nice beautiful love songs🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵😁
You can't go wrong with The Turtles! They have several other songs worthy of a reaction.
The Turtles were part of the groups from The British Invasion! “ I was in love with all the song’s from these great singers in the 60’s, I was 17 when this song was on the radio. 👍🥰🌺🌹🌹
The Turtles were one of those groups that, no matter what one of their songs you listen to, it makes you feel good.
The Turtles and the Lovin'Spoonful define the 60s for me. Their music always made me happy
Saw Them in Concert in 1985 with, The Buckinghams, Grassroots and Gary Lewis and the Playboys, all headliners from the 60's early 70's. A beautiful night. Happy Together was the Tour's title.
You guys are good, nobody has done the Turtles reaction video that I know of.
Way to hit stuff nobody else does.👍👍
So deceptively simple, but each part is so on point. Timeless.
Written by Gary Bonner the group got it from a scratched Acetate. The only recording they did with Chip Douglas before The Monkees spirited him away for their Headquarters album. He was replaced by the Leaves Jim Pons.
So simple so clear beautiful clever and very powerful song.
Never gets old to me anyway.
Much respect to know that there are people like me out there that can enjoy so much music from different generations different titles.
Hey stay happy guys❤
It's so wonderful to see you two react to this great music exactly the way we did back then. Carefree, happy days.
two of the original members, including the lead singer, still tour to this day as a duo called Flo and Eddie. they played at our local fair a few years ago
Man! You guys would've loved living in the 60's!
60s, 70s and 80's have got to be the greatest 30 years in music!
The lead singer Howard Kaylan is a great friend of mine and we've been friends on social media for over 10 years.
When I met him backstage at a concert in 2017 it was exactly 50 years after he met
The Beatles, Brian Jones of
The Rolling Stones, and
Jimi Hendrix all on the
same night in 1967.
Then by the end of the concert.. I ended up being on stage with him and some of the other acts, singing this song ☮️
The Turtles has an impressive string of hits. "Elenore" is also one of my favorites. There is a lot to hear in this rabbit hole. I'm on a crusade to expose you to one of the best pop groups of the '70s: The Grass Roots". They had a string of hits from 1967-1975. Start off with "Midnight Confessions" here's a link (ruclips.net/video/k8qvOOQl1SM/видео.html ). The video isn't great but it's the original version of the song. It has an iconic opening bass line and great horn arraignment.. They're second hit is "Let's Live For Today" (ruclips.net/video/mZkT9jbzRwY/видео.html) which was very popular with the soldiers in Viet Nam. There are many more great songs and once you hear these, you'll want to hear more. This is also a rabbit hole very worthy of your time.
Love it! Always have. I like the Mothers of Invention version too.
Flo and Eddie...
Just a great selection. One of the big favorites of my childhood.
Love the turtles, love this song! Thanks!
This is a song I grew up with. You just can't help smiling listening to it.
I love love songs!💖 For a short and ultra sweet one by The Beatles, from their 1966 Revolver album, listen to "Here, There and Everywhere" 💞
We had so much love for everyone from the 50s to the 70s. It was a great time in life.
Love the Turtles! This is my favorite one from them! Thanks!!!!
We were so fortunate to have songs like this growing up in the 60s.
I saw them around 1990. They were fantastic! They are also like a kind of souundrack for the 60s. The 60s wouldnt be same without The Turtles
Shawn and Mel Happy Together
One of the great singles of the 60s. Irresistible!
You Showed Me by TURTLES
Great reaction... I was a 12 year old playing little league baseball when this song was big. I still remember those times with a smile
This is a wonderful song ; it makes me miss my wife - hold onto each other tight and Never let go 💕
got to say yous two are a great team, you're back to back, good energy
this is one of my all time favorite songs, love this song
Music in 60s and 70s was the best. Was a teenager in the 70s , wish kids had this music now
This is one of thoes songs that's timeless and is a real feel good song
I was 12 when this song came out. Although I didn’t understand the words back then (I‘m German) I loved the song because of its positive vibes! Beautiful song!
Man it's about 45 years since I last heard this song. Love it!
I forgot about The Turtles group BUT know this song and loved it back in the day. Thanks for sharing.
Saw these guys at a hotel with Micky Dolenz from the Monkees. As I'm talking to Micky, singer Howard passes brushing by me saying "out of my way". Saw him lobby 10 minutes later and he apologized and was so nice took a picture with me and signed autographs.
I never knew who sung this!! I was a baby when this came out but this sound definalty epitimizies the vibe of the 60's!!!
Many wholesome hits by this band!
My memory of this song was riding on the school bus to Jr. High in the morning and the bus driver had the radio playing for us.🥰
