@michaelmika2995. I had the same experience. I can remember listening to them with an English friend of the family by the name of Pat Whitstock. She was about 28, I was about 12. She just played Smoke gets in your eyes over and over.. I am 80 in three days time. I have always loved The Platters.
I am 85 I keep listening the most fabulous group ever sang on earth.I hope in the New World set up by Jesus Christ on earth we will be able to see them again, singing for the whole world.
@@christinegineys9560 vous avez raison Christine c'est pour moi le meilleur groupe a l'époque où je faisais avec mon épouse qui malheureusement m'a quitté a cause d'une sale maladie...😢
I consider myself to be lucky, to have been born in 1946...I was just old enough to remember my parents playing music from the earlier 50s, like Perry Como, Teresa Brewer, etc. I liked it!...and then Elvis came to town, and created a tidal wave of newer, basic Rock and Roll...I liked it!...and then the Beatles showed up, and somehow united a world-wide listening audience, throughout the 60s!..I liked that too!...It has been such a beautiful roller-coaster of a Musical Tapestry, that helped to define my generation.
Music is generational...few genres of music pass on to the next generation...I am 77...Fifty years ago, my parents would ask me why their music was no longer popular!...I am lucky I guess, as I like at least some of my parent's music, then I liked Elvis, then the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, etc. Sometime around 1980, I stopped going to concerts, concentrating on work, and raising my two sons. But believe me...I love these old Doo-Wop classics, that remind me of how innocent I was back then...and how I grew up with harder, more progressive music that followed. I still feel strongly, that the best musical instrument of all , is the Human Voice!
Almost 16 years ago, my wife and I went to Branson, MO for our 2nd anniversary. The Platters were performing that weekend. We went to a local restaurant for breakfast and the Platters happened to be there. When they heard we were in town celebrating our anniversary - they invited us over to their table. We talked, took pictures with them, got autographs and they even paid for our breakfast. One of the best days of my life! 😀
This music makes me think when I was a little kid. I was born in 1950 so I had the 5060s and the 70s I love the platters and all the other groups if I miss any of the groups without a thumbs up it’s a thumbs up and stars to all love you all and love the musicmemories❤
I was born in 1951 and grew up listening to this amazing music I’m now 73yrs old in August 2024 and like millions more loved 50’s and 60’s music 🎶 thank you RUclips for the memories 💕👍🏻🎵
Am 84 will celebrate 85 on DEC 7 still dance the cha cha boogie and my favorite the tango and love to do dancing everyday my hubby was a sailor he loves to dance and we te good team I missed him esp now now that am alone the best years of my life only so lonely now my partner was gone 😊
Beautiful people and talented singers and musicians , living in an era of oppression of coloured people in America . The audience looks all white. The Platters excelled with their music , others in sport & activism . Admirably many shone so brightly & powerfully through those challenging times . This music is timeless perfection !! 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤
I was born in 1985, so this music came out over a generation before I was even born, but it still played on the oldies stations when I was a kid. I've just been sitting here all night thinking about how it was the music my grandparents probably listened to in their 20s and 30s when they were newly weds and probably also when they dated. It not only gives me a nostalgic feeling, but it even gives me an eerie kind of feeling...like I'm watching a world of ghosts on a video, knowing that all of those people are long gone, and I'm looking through a window into a different world that is also long gone. I'm sorry I did not appreciate this type of music for all those years when I was younger the way that I do now.
I was 9 years old, sitting next to the radio. I couldn't believe how incredible! And they are still my favorites at 76. Thank you. PS They couldn't sit in that club and have dinner at that time. Makes me so sad.
Let me just say that I am 77 years old and I remember when my dad played this song on the radio in the car and he sang it along with the players singing it so now I am 77 years old and I have memories of my dad singing this song to me God Bless The Platters and hopefully one day they will come back or maybe replacement voices will come back that song just like them God bless you for playing the song for me on my phone❤😂💜💙💛❤🥰
Back in the day when you created music. You'd sit and close your eyes and drift into that imaginary place and see through the creators eyes being closed and living that joy as is... Creation. Blessings Loves... My privilege.
That is wonderful I'm 76 and I'm sending all this wonderful music to my grandson who just graduated the university and is going out into the world we're making memories with music 💞❤
Can’t come back, Tony Williams , lead singer, unfortunately passed away many years ago. I find it sad in the video of “only you “they show the yo-yo white couple & guy being seated , who cares about people being shown to their table.?
Pacat ca este atata ura si dusmanie in lume, uitam ca avem o viata scurta si nu ne vom revedea niciodata cu momentele fericite din trecutul nostru...sa ne unim intr-un singur glas indiferent de religia pe care o avem, rasa, culoarea pielii, de a promova iubirea si pacea... ascultand aceasta melodie am uitat de realitatea zilei de azi, amintindu-mi de anii trecuti cu toate zilele placute traite pana in prezent. Ce credeti, am dreptate?
In 1967, I was in the Finnish army doing my military duty. I had a Tandberg tape recorder with me, and full tape of The Platters from my brother. After a hard day's service, it was a great pleasure to listen to their evergreen music.
I'm 51 and was lucky to grow up listening to the Platters. My mother played her album quite often. This song in particular reminds me of her and brings tears to my eyes every single time I hear it. The Platters, such a wonderfully talented group.
One of my favorites as a child. Now I listen to the words much more. I'm only 80.
Brilliant music 😉

Keep ❤chugging away. .. there is spectacular to help!
Kiss to grama❤⁴ever😢
85 lol
Only a few of us know one of the greatest loss of one of the most gifted Singers and still without comparison.
You are right.
I am 85 I keep listening the most fabulous group ever sang on earth.I hope in the New World set up by Jesus Christ on earth we will be able to see them again, singing for the whole world.
It is the safest thing because it is a promise from Jehovah God. And everything he promised he is fulfilling and he will continue to do it.

Remember When. His voice is just awesome, best voice I ever heard.

No doubt. They are all handsome and so pretty. So sad that we thought it was ok to treat them less than the stars they were. 😢. The best tenor ever

Ach te stare piosenki , piękne melodyjne , wspominam je zawsze ,to były czasy ❤❤
Yes, & you can make out every word they sing too. ❤
