Forget how amazing he still sounds live. Forget the fact he's past 80 in this clip. Go back and watch his facial expressions, shoulders and arm movements. Think about how many 1000s of time he has sang this and his other hits, night after night, year after year, for over 50 years. He STILL shows major expressions to go with each part of the song. 99.999% of performers just get up there and sing and you wonder if they are just doing it to get a paycheck. Frankie actually puts on a show and gives the audience what they want even though that man has GOT to be tired of all this sometimes. That's the mark of a TRUE entertainer from the old school.
After seeing countless sound checks with my own eyes and ears I can tell you he is in fact singing. No one I know in the music industry puts more effort into getting it right then Frankie. He wants consistancy in his shows and thats what he does
Lawrence Visocky There are videos of him where you can hear his voice but he's not holding the mic to his mouth. MAYBE he double tracks. He mimes some words but not all. Also in some you can see him switch the mic on to talk then turn it off to "sing".
@@rosarioreside3327no he is not. Don’t lie to yourself. If you lie to yourself about small things like this, what else are you lying to yourself about?
@@XxXxTwofirstnames69420xXxXxI think he's singing here, but we might not be hearing his live vocals. For a long time, it was clear that even if we were hearing a track, he was still singing along. Now, it seems he either is still trying and can't or is just speaking.
Regardless of whether he is singing live or not this Man is a legend ,very old.It should be a pleasure just to see him live and be able to say"I saw Frankie Valli in person".He is getting very old.Kudos for still wanting to do his thing.He is a singing legend :):)
I know this comment is 2 years old, but just in case you haven't seen it, Frankie and the FS have some videos they did during the lockdown and pandemic. They were this year and middle of last year. There is NO faking that. Go watch. It's amazing !! Look up Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons YT channel and they are there. He hasn't put up a lot of videos so they are easy to find.
@@princessoffire1107 I totally agree with you. I was 4 years old when introduced to The Four Seasons music. A fan for life. I was directing the comment about whether he is singing or not at the people who don't believe that he is. I know that he is singing. Like I said ,he is a legend.
@@lettermenfan32I dunno, when they did "Harmony," there was definitely some room ambience in Valli's track. 2021 was the last time he recorded an album, so who knows.
This man is 78 years old and still going strong. I just got my ticket 🎟 to see him in person and I am so excited. He will be in San Jose in December and I will be in the audience listening to all my favorite songs. I can hardly wait.
I just spoke with my male first cousin Harvey,who lives in Baltimore ,Maryland all his life. Hes in his late 70s and he told me that he saw The Four Seasons eight times in concert over the years. I feel bad that my cousin is not a well guy , and he has had to live in a rehabilitation center, until he improves. Its like over three years now. I guess he must really love Frankie and the group.
Frankie still has it! In the sad wake of Aretha's passing, I'm cherishing the fact that Frankie is still going strong. He's been sounding better over the last few years than at any time during the late 70s/early 80s (check out some of the performances from then, when I believe he had hearing difficulties). It's clearly 99% him singing live, if not 100%. Who cares if some FX have been added to make the voice sound even better than it already does, it's part of the sound mix, no different to a guitarist using a wah pedal or a synth effect! The important thing is SOUL and Frankie has it in spades! Love the brass section to. Just amazing music, thanks Frankie for the inspiration !
I have always been a fan of Frankie Valli and & The Four Seasons but to be honest i been always in love with Frankie Valli i wish someday to meet him, wow that would be a dream come true. Love you Frankie.
He's 80+ years old. He loves entertaining. So maybe he can't sing as strong as he use to when he had a great set of pipes. Quite frankly he should've been recognized more than he was back in the day. Bottom line, it's still him on that stage and lip syncing to " his" songs. How many 80 years can do that? He styles his hair so nicely ( he still has great hair), dresses great. Just standing up on stage, moving around, handling the harsh lighting wears a person, even lip syncing takes talent. So to those people complaining- don't watch. Go watch some of these great music performers nowadays that alter ( most) their music so that the singers ( some) can appear to sound as if they can sing. At least Mr. Valli could sing- he had raw unaltered talent. Boy could he sing back in the day, no alterations, just natural talent. So he still likes to entertain, let him. I would pay to go see him and listen to "his own tracks" as he lip syncs!!
Sex appeal , and magnetism. Frank was blessed with this. Hes like a fine bottle of Italian wine, that makes you feel so nice .Hes aging like the wine .🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷❤
I remember listening to his songs every Saturday going up to The Bronx as a child. I'm still listening. I don't know if he has backing tracks or not, but he's one of the very few entertainers who has earned that right.
Love him to pieces what a life he's had and I'm so glad he still alive I'm still in love with him for the day I've been 15 and now I am 66 and love him more then never will never forget him as long as we both shall live. What's wrong
These lypsync phobia people love to try to ruin it for everybody don't they. Frankie does not sound like he did 50 years ago. He's still great because he has God given talent. You bashers who put Frankie down are jealous of his fame, his success, his longevity and you absolutely can't stand the fact that you could not even do half of what Frankie can do at his age of 82.
" MAGNIFICENTLY " SAID PURE "JEALOUSLY." THERE IS ONLY ONE , REPEAT THERE IS ONLY ONE FRANKIE VALLI IN OUR HEARTS❤ AND NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE HIS PLACE EVER!!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU MY DEAR FRANKIE VALLI 👍☝💚💛💜❤👏👏👏👏👏 BRAVO TONI
Who’s “bashing?” There’s no shame in having one’s performance “assisted” or “enhanced” or in lip syncing, especially at his age. The real question is, why does it even need to be brought up?
You're right, he doesn't sound the same as he did 50 years ago when he's actually singing. But when he lip syncs, it sounds way too polished. Like here
why don't u all shut up putting Frankie Valli down if u have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all and get all your ears tested as he does not sound the same as he did back in the 60s listen to Frankie singing ragdoll its not the same so u can tell his singing the songs live just because he's 82 doesn't mean he still can't sing
If you listen to the same songs in past concert 2011 or the old original recording you will find that there is a big difference and he is really singing here not lip syncing and his voice now is weaker and shorter and cant keep with high notes
I doubt that he is lip syncing but so what if he is. Franki Valli is one of the great ones. I've been to a couple of his concerts - great show every time.
Wow this is awesome so close clear sound is great! Do you have more of this you could please post ? A lot health problems would cheer me up thank you !
I love the way he singing (or lip syncing:) the lines 'want me to' and 'when your gone'. Wish he sang it that way on the original version. Does anyone know what I'm talkin about?
Thank you I watched the rest of yours fantastic !do you know the song if it really wasn't love 30yrs I can't understand the one line he sings I just listened again don't know if he's saying violin or what maybe you. Know he says if it really wasn't love did I make up all that don't know what he's saying make up all what ? Please if anyone knows thank you
To be able to put on a show like this is astonishing to say the least if this is 'lip synching"then lets have some more of it the man is pure class and professional simple as that
if ure a fan off Frankie's y put h down he can still sing but he's 83, in may he ain't gunna sound like he did years ago alot off singers start too lose there voices half off Frankie's age
steve thomas He lost his too in his 50s. Look at some old videos he didn't even try for some notes back then, but now hits them like a digital chipmunk them in his 80s? Seriously??? 😂
steve thomas the man is a great showmen,singer,and has a talent. what do you have.frankie,i love your singing . and the best with 4 seasons,the words in your songs is every womans dream,i had that with my husband for 47yrs,he has now past,thank you for those great songs,and memories.keep singing..
Hes not lip syncing. However, he is stacked, and auto tuned. Many, many performers do this live, even the young ones. I have seem Frankie live, and he is indeed singing, he just needs a little help getting his pitch on the higher notes. Heck, who wouldn't at 83?
Then how would you explain multiple live performances from this era with the exact same vocal performance, every little nuance? The band is playing to a click/backing track with his vocal pre-recorded on it.
My disappointment at him lip syncing is that I love the evolution of the songs and the way they change as the artist ages. Frankie is still a fucking legend that's for sure.
he's just mouthing the lyrics...an obvious lip-sync...or at best he's singing along with an earlier pre-recorded track which is played at a much higher volume
first of all if he was lip-syncing I would be pissed off cuz I'm paying for a live performance that's number one. Number two there's no way he is lip syncing you can clearly tell he's not there's too many nuances in the way he's singing there's no way he'd be able to sing right in tune to the music playing in the background it's absolutely him singing.
That's just not true. I have literally worked in shows that mixed live music with prerecorded tracks--it doesn't matter if the track is vocal or not, you have people in the band with monitors and they have a click track that plays to the song. There are many inconsistencies in the vocal part vs the mouthing of the words here. There's also many inconsistencies with distance and the proximity to the microphone not being reflected in the vocal track. I have also heard this exact vocal track in another live performance from 2012. The band is playing live to a live click track which keeps everyone on tempo and in sync with the pre-recorded vocal. It is not complex and it is more common than you might think.

He is in his 80's in this video Mary Omnes !!!!!!!
Mary Omnes How was the concert?
Absolutely love Frankie Valli. His voice is a work of art.
Frank, thank you for being the musical sound track to my life
I just spoke with my male first cousin Harvey,who lives in Baltimore ,Maryland all his life. Hes in his late 70s and he told me that he saw The Four Seasons eight times in concert over the years. I feel bad that my cousin is not a well guy , and he has had to live in a rehabilitation center, until he improves. Its like over three years now. I guess he must really love Frankie and the group.
Frankie Valli
is going strong
he has a great voice
no one can ever replace him
My one and only favorite Artist he is doing great at his age and all his fans overwhelmed 😘👍
Still an awesome singing voice. Always been a huge fan
Every memory from my youth they are right there with a song
Love Opus 17 !

La música lo mantiene lúcido, activo, genial y a nosotros sus fans, nos regresa la alegría del ayer. Dios bendiga a Frankie!!!

I love that voice even if he was 100.

Ruego a Dios que te brinde mucha salud y bienestar Frankie y la dicha de poderte ir a ver pronto
Singing aside, he is a ton more animated in this 2016 video than in the recent ones. 82 then, 88 now. Aging sucks for us all.
He has been my favorite singer since I was a teenager. That was over 50 years ago. Love ❤️ his voice. Brings back many memories of my late husband.
YOU GO FRANKIE!!!!
THANKS TERRY YOUR A "SWEETHEART❤ FOR " TELLING" IT LIKE IT IS 👏
I do not like it when bashers put down Frankie. He and the 4 Seasons are my all time favorites.
Really, how many people get on stage, let alone sing in their 80s, if they're lucky enough to reach 80yrs?
why don't u all shut up putting Frankie Valli down if u have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all and get all your ears tested as he does not sound the same as he did back in the 60s listen to Frankie singing ragdoll its not the same so u can tell his singing the songs live just because he's 82 doesn't mean he still can't sing
Reality check. He's lip-syncing. I'm a huge fan, nonetheless.
He's singing life
i was at his recent show and sat in the front row and i could hear his voice so you can stick it cause this video looks like he is singing

I love the way he singing (or lip syncing:) the lines 'want me to' and 'when your gone'. Wish he sang it that way on the original version. Does anyone know what I'm talkin about?
I think he just use autotune not lip sync
LOVE Frankie
Lip syncing or not he's fantastic went and seen him best concert I've been to. As he's a living legend.
Looking for the nearest YOU concert! 😍😍😍😍😍
Gonna be in Branson, mo . .

Know he says if it really wasn't love did I make up all that don't know what he's saying make up all what ? Please if anyone knows thank you
yes i Steve i agree well said Helen Moore
People are just mad that he can still kill it and they can't hold a tune in a bucket
To be able to put on a show like this is astonishing to say the least if this is 'lip synching"then lets have some more of it the man is pure class and professional simple as that
Idgaf just the fact he wrote opus 17 the man is a legend and forever will be
But Sandy Linzer and Denny Randell wrote Opus 17...and they also wrote Working My Way Back To you, too.
I love him, lip sync because he's breathing from he's chest and moving
In my opinion because on every video I see of Frankie Valli he should just stand there to prove if he's lip syncing

Get away from the Beer Uncle Charming Frank. LOL
Terry Frankie is doing well Helen Moore
he's just mouthing the lyrics...an obvious lip-sync...or at best he's singing along with an earlier pre-recorded track which is played at a much higher volume
He looks about as excited as a mailman who stepped in dog shit xD
I'd be pissed if I paid money to see someone lol syncing.
Love Frankie but he is lip syncing.
