I saw her perform in 1964 and noticed that her voice was as good on stage as it was in the studio, not a common thing these days. As a radio DJ in the '60's, I played a lot of her hits and they always seemed just right for the moment. I've a great many memories from those days and Lesley was among the best.
RIP..your songs, especially Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows bring back happy childhood memories..thank you for the music Leslie!! Always will live in our hearts.
Loved her during my college years (1969 grad). When my daughter was in college a few years ago she had some of my CD's and today both her and her college roommate have this song as their ring tone on their cell phones - they know right away when they are calling each other.
1963..Leslie Gore is the absolute pioneer of 'rock music'. (maybe along with Ronnie Spector).. Even before The Beatles arrived in America in Feb.1964, to officially kick off 'The Rock Era'...Not to be confused with the 'Rock and Roll Era' that began in 1956 with Elvis, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Buddy Holly.. The modern 'Rock Era'. Leslie Gore was pure 100% Rock Music....Pioneer for woman in rock?...No! Pioneer for everybody in rock....Unbelievable..Like she knew at that young age what cool Rock Music was supposed to be about..And so confident and hip..I remember when I was 7, 8, 9, and 10 in the mid 60's, hearing Leslie's songs on tv, and my little AM transistor radio..Then I kind of forgot about her by time I was 13 and forward, and in High School in the mid 70s. As we all got into The Beatles, The Stones, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Aerosmith, Zeppelin, and Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc. Maybe she wasn't on the radio so much after the 1960's or something.. Then like over 40 years later I pulled her up on You Tube and finally got to see lots of her TV appearances, and concerts, and video clips, and interviews, and I was blown away...Rock Music would have never had been the same if it wasn't for Leslie Gore...And her interviews over the decades shows how much of a great person Leslie Gore was... I seen every cool rock band in the 70's, and forward, but never got to see Leslie live in concert..Bummer! She passed away before I even realized that she still played live all these years....God Bless Leslie Gore, and Thanx You Tube for all of her great music..frankm62yroldwhitekid
joe pish actually she was 42 years old here (26 years ago) and Still at the Top of her game notice those high notes ..her voice was very much in tact here she does a great job on the high notes singing Maybe I Know during this same show Melbourne 1989..
Alizee Defan I don't really know anything at all bout her which I wouldn't know wether or not 2 agree with u bcause I just recently heard this "fun enjoyable song" of hers in a "RUclips video" from an act in "America's Got Talent".
Wonderful memories. I was 11 and our baby sitter played Leslie Gore, Beach Boys and all of the hot stuff of the era. Remember going to the A&W for a root beer and 5 cent pickle wiches...and hearing this.
On this day in 1966 {November 13th} Lesley Gore performed "Sunshine, Lollipops, & Rainbows" on the NBC-TV program 'The Andy Williams Show'... One year earlier on June 19th, 1965 it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; eventually it peaked at #13 and spent 11 weeks on the Top 100... Between 1963 and 1967 she had nineteen records make the Top 100; with four reaching the Top 10 and one peaking at #1 {"It's My Party" for two weeks, and it was also her debut record on the Top 100}...
Thanks for uploading, This wonderful lady inspired my childhood friend to come out as lesbian after years of being afraid, that was until she saw Leslie being so open and proud about being lesbian
On this day in 1965 {March 2nd} Lesley Gore performed "Sunshine, Lollipops, & Rainbows" on the NBC-TV program 'Hullabaloo' Three months later on June 19th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; eventually it peaked at #13 and spent 11 weeks on the Top 100 It was composed by Marvin Hamlisch The song was featured in the Frankie Avalon movie "Ski Party" {Annette Funicello made a cameo appearance} R.I.P. Mr. Hamlisch {1944 - 2012} and Ms. Gore will celebrate her 67th birthday this coming May 2nd

Interesting, thanks. So in a way they went 'to the Crossroads' too? There's an interesting video where John Hammond traces Robert Johnson's footsteps right to his probable death and burial place.

There was a window of brightness from this era, and this song showcases the lightness and idealism of it. R.I.P. Ms. Gore.
Que bonita canción 😃
Happy Music❤pure out the Love
I still can't believe she's gone.
Loved her during my college years (1969 grad). When my daughter was in college a few years ago she had some of my CD's and today both her and her college roommate have this song as their ring tone on their cell phones - they know right away when they are calling each other.
I'm sure Lesley appreciates it, :) !! Thank you.
8 years and still no reply
I was there in Melbourne and of all the ledgens she suprised me the most, she gave it all.
A great performer with incredible eyes!
I think her voice got somehow softer as she aged. I think it's rather lovely for it.

damn, she had a kick ass body for a woman in her 60's there. RIP.
She was only 43 here.
i know. i corrected that
joe pish
Not yet, son.
More importantly, she had a kick-ass voice and kick-ass musicianship.

"Sunshine, Lollipops and Roses', early 60's hit from Leslie Gore. live in Melbourne, 1989.
By Marvin Hamlisch (like "California Nights")
Love her on Batman show ❤California Nights❤
Sunshine🌞lollipops🍭and rainbows🌈
The 1st female pop ICON
No...Brenda Lee holds that title.
Alizee Defan I don't really know anything at all bout her which I wouldn't know wether or not 2 agree with u bcause I just recently heard this "fun enjoyable song" of hers in a "RUclips video" from an act in "America's Got Talent".
Lynn Templeton Wring again. The very first female pop icon was the unconquerable Connie Francis.
No mothra from Godzilla takes the position long live the queen
Pretty sure Tina Turner is more famous than her AND was putting out slappers before her...
R.I.P. lesley, you were great,thankyou.
Another GREAT Artist gone Rest In Peace Lesley.
Agree, she looks fantastic and sounds great, but this was 21 years ago.
Glad you enjoyed Michael - thank you !
Wonderful memories. I was 11 and our baby sitter played Leslie Gore, Beach Boys and all of the hot stuff of the era. Remember going to the A&W for a root beer and 5 cent pickle wiches...and hearing this.
RIP Tord
I've heard these songs for years and never knew the singer but now I know. She was great.
This is my favorite concert from Lesley Gore! 1989 and the lovely Lesley Gore that had shared so much music with us as a teenager back in 1963!
She was so beautiful when she was yung
9 years ago yet no replies. Shame
sunshine, lollipops and rainbows are all yours. beautiful singing !
REST IN PEACE LESLEY
I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU AND KEEP YOU IN MY HEART
This just made my day 😊😊
She was a beautiful member of the LGBT community.
I have a lot of respect for Lesbians and Gay men who carried themselves with respect. Not so much the idiots nowadays, sadly.
I always thought she was part of the human community and just happened to be lesbian. My how things have changed.
Wait really
I respect but I just don't feel comfortable 😔
@@alyweirdchild7233 it's ok not to feel comfortable. Just by saying that you have respect is enough to see that you are a decent human being.
HEY! SUNSHINE LOLIPOPS ! TEAK A SEAT !!
I will forever associate this song with auto theft and Marge Simpson.
and I with eddsworld
And I with cloudy with a chance of meatballs
LOLOLOLOL. I was watching that episode and was wondering what song it was.😂😂
,,,, it looks like she had good time in Melbourne :)
thx so much for sharing... just beautiful :-) Made my day, and made me happy *g*
regards from Germany :-)

I love this song! 😍😍😍😍

Too right - thanks! :)
This is my fav song
Didn't know that, and sorry to read he's no longer with us. Great song, thanks for that.

Seeing her and hearing her in 1989 makes it really hard to believe that she was a teenager when this song was originally released! 😮

Poor Tord! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Written by composer Marvin Hamlisch who passed away today. R.I.P.
She’s got the adorable old singer voice that old actresses and singers get, like Betty Hutton on SNL
I was amazed , when I read she really didn't have any money, she did all those top records that sold, guess the record company's made all the money
No. 1 song
Does Leslie get any better than this. Wow!
Marge and Ruth brought me here :D yah, I know...
Terrific, thanks! :)
