    The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

      First time I ever heard the song is right now. Yup, I’m crying, too. I’m divorced to boot, ha-ha. What makes it worse is that the person in this song has lost custody of her daughter! More tears! I didn’t face losing custody since my sons were adults, but wow, this song caused some waterworks!😊

    She had just recorded this live at the Persian Room in NYC. Earlier she recorded a studio version which came nowhere near as this to conveying the emotion the song deserves. I've heard her sing this in concert at least a dozen times. Each time she brings the same emotion, the same tears. This is a talent you just cannot teach.

    "With Pen in Hand" was one of Vikki's biggest hits. She gave a very moving performance on this episode. As mentioned by another commenter, it was written by Bobby Goldsboro and the single charted at 35 on the Billboard Hot 100, 6 on the Adult Contemporary chart and 39 on the UK Singles chart.

    A theme ahead of its time, as divorce wasn't nearly as prominent in the '60s as later. There are at least a couple other Vicki Carr show appearances on RUclips where she sings this incredible piece; however, you couldn't beat at that time the audio quality, camera close-ups/angles, staging, and quality of the orchestral accompaniment of an Ed Sullivan Show appearance.

    • @MostlyBrenda
      @MostlyBrenda Год назад +6

      Actually, Tammy Wynette had D-I-V-O-R-C-E as the number one country song in 1968, the year before this one. I don't know but maybe Goldsboro was inspired by that one.

    Vikki was nominated for a Grammy, but the competition was fierce. And the nominees are:
    Dionne Warwick - This Girl's in Love With You
    Vikki Carr - With Pen in Hand
    Dusty Springfield - Son Of A Preacher Man
    Peggy Lee - Is That All There Is
    Jackie DeShannon - Put A Little Love In Your Heart
    Brenda Lee - Johnny One Time
    It was a banner year for female soloists!
    May I have the envelope please. And the winner is: Peggy Lee

    • @hnc52

      @MostlyBrenda Год назад +4

      @@hnc52 It was in Pulp Fiction in the 90s so later generations got familiar with it. Kinda like Rockin Around the Xmas Tree and Home Alone. "Is that all" probably won because the subject matter was so different. Maybe🤔 Or it could be that Peggy was the older artist in the group.

    OUTSTANDING. A singer should never "sing" a song. They should "interpret/convey" the message. It is a transference of one heart to another. The message/emotion HAS TO be delivered. She lived the song. That is how it should always be done.
