Heard him in a live show at Harrah's Casino at Lake Tahoe. He was fabulous. First part of the show he wore an exquisite navy blue suit with a white dress shirt. Later switched into jeans, same white shirt and loafers. I was drooling! Class act. He sang every hit; performed over 2 hours. I will never forget this. What a legend.
I always thought that I would only adore the teen Paul Anka. Tthis video showed how charming he is even now... His voice and face reminds me of him in the 60s and I LOVE it
I always loved the cheeky smile and way Paul Anka spoke, also the fun he would have with other singers of the earlier years like Bobby Darin, Franky Avalon and Pat Boone on camera during a show..... Wonderful times, as he says technology so different today than back then.... This is a talented man still doing his thing of entertaining his fans and wishing some of his friends were still around..... Keep on singing up a storm Paul, still love YOU !
I met him in the 80’s he flew into my hometown I worked for the airlines , friends were having me a birthday party in the cafe at the airport he came in gave me a birthday kiss I will never forget it
@@paulankatv1096 I know your song, puppy love was written for Annette funicello. Was put your head on my shoulders also written for her, too? From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@MetFan37 Paul has a democratic right to reject the sexual lifestyle of men who choose to sleep with other men, or women who choose to sleep with other women. Now if you are gonna call Paul a homophobe then gay people can be called heterophobes for the exact same reason. They reject the lifestyle of straight people who choose to sleep with the opposite sex.
Paul Anka pulled me out of the audience during a performance in Vegas decades ago and sang to me. My husband took several pictures. When he let my hand go, I covered my face and squealed. The audience laughed at me. That experience has always been so special! He is an amazing entertainer.
The first and the youngest singer, writer, and composer ever we have in this planet, and the greatest of all time. Living healthy & clean life. My idol.
I GREW UP WITH ANKA´S SONGS AND I´M STILL SINGING THOSE ON MY KARAOKE EQUIPMENT. "TIME TO CRY" MY FAVORITE ONE. GREETINGS FOR ALL. AND GOD BLESS AMERICA(USA)!!!!!!!!!!
Was 12 years old when I fell in love with Paul Anka when he first appeared on Bandstand when it was still a local (Philadelphia) show. My first live rock and roll concert was a few years later - Paul Anka at the DelMar (Calif) racetrack. Have been to many concerts in my 75 years, but his stands out in my memory. It was outdoors and he did encore, after encore, after encore. Had to shed his suit coat because it was so hot, but he never gave up. Who wouldn't appreciate that kind of effort!? Will now buy his book!
Wow such a kind words I love you 😘 most,thanks so much for kind words and thanks for your lovely and support.I’m blown away by the love fans like you are the reason we keep moving forward
Since the beginning was a fan and now STILL i love his music and his persona. In Atlanta I saw / watched him perform @ Chastain Park Amphitheatre. A birthday party that i will never forget! What a performer!
Paul has been great from the first moment he started, has been original and a talent with such a very good taste wich comes from inside the person. So I really congratulate his work and surrender during all this years. Happy birthday and God bless you more every day.
When I would go to the junior highschool dances on Saturday night, my favorite song to dance to was "Put your head on my shoulder". Just loved it. Great great singer. Nice guy.
My Ma loved you & I Eternally even now im getting older too my Ma had Passed 1963 at the age of 33yrs. old i was only 8yrs. old my big bro was 10yrs. old he's passed away too at the age of 54 but your music Paul Anka Linger's on Forever your songs are Outstanding Stunning Spectacular very Inspiring you are our Superstar Forever & Always Loved you Very Very Much💜🐾Sydney Australia💚🙏💛🐕!
I saw Paul perform at Jupiter’s Casino in Queensland’ Australia, he was brilliant ! Had no idea how many songs he wrote ! What a gift he has been to the music industry
Dear Paul, I'm glad that you made it your way. Remembering, when we meet across from your dad's delicatessen in the playing ground at Fisher Park High, Ottawa when our dad's were conducting business. Glad to have had the opportunity to have heard you singing Dianna in the mirror that day before your success in show business. Regards Ron P
This was awesome.. This is the kind of music I listened to when I was a kid.. I cried when Elvis, Bing, Dino and Frank all Passed away .. I still have albums that are 78's, that is the speed you play them on, just to clarify not the year...
Paul Anka not only a great talent but a brilliant business man must’ve been amazing living Paul’s life and growing up in that area I hope u know u r very blessed. Love u Paul Anka
I have been watching him on old Password shows. He was so smart!!! and charming. They mentioned that he wrote the theme song to The Tonight Show for Johnny Carson. He wrote hundreds and hundreds of huge hits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite episodes of the original PASSWORD are when Paul Anka is on the show. He's very intelligent and expertly plays the game! Search for "PASSWORD" and you will find him. I have subscribed to the channel.
Paul anka es un verdadero cantante nunca igualado a los cantantes babosos del 2020 ni en español ni inglés. Es un gran compositor uno de los grandes que quedan con lo mejor de la música de todos los tiempos.
I grew up a block from the Anka house in Ottawa in the 60s and went to school with Andy Anka. We would crawl under the porch to listen to Paul writing songs in the basement. Who knew??
@@Bogie3855 Hi, I knew Paul's dad, Andy in Toronto years ago. So I guess the "Andy" you went to school with was Paul's brother? Google never mentioned the names of brother and sister. Maybe they kept their lives private from his. I've loved Paul's music for decades! Still do. Even later on, his "Jazz Swings" album. Now gotta get that book!
Paul Anka Cantante Canadiense Tiene Cantando Desde El Año 1958Viendo Por Internet Y También Vídeos De Sus Actuaciones EN Chile Y Otros Países Demuestra Una Sencillez Porque Siempre Se Acerca Al Público Y Les Da La Mano Esto Demuestra Lo Que Algunos No Son Como Paul Anka
Mi primer ídolo, cuando mi papá me trajo el primer disco de Paul Anka con Diana, Put your head on mi shoulder etc. Tenía 12 años , ahora tengo 74 y sigo disfrutando y soñando con sus creaciones!!!
Esse incrível cara é meu cantor preferido desde meus 15 anos, quando ouvia suas músicas na versão de Carlos Gonzaga, aqui no Brasil. Tenho CD que ouço no carro constantemente, principalmente Diana. Ouço com meu neto Joaquim desde os cinco anos dele quando pegava ele na escola e levava pra casa. Hoje ele tem 15 anos e continuamos ouvindo o Paul e Carlos Gonzaga. Uma maravilha!!!
Este cantor é lindo , maravilhoso ,incrível ,sedutor ,tem uma linda voz ,eu amo e curto tdas as musicas deste lindo cantor Canadense ,Paul tão longe dos meus olhos mais amp estará dentro do meu coração ,eu amo e curto todas as músicas deste lindo cantor ,pq tdas as músicas são lindas cheias de mto amor ,ternura ,meiguice e mto mais ,eu desejo ao Paul Anka ,paz ,amor ,carinho no aconchego do seu lar junto com sua amada ,desejo q smp Deus os abençoe ,os guarde e os livres e tudo e tdos aqueles q são ruins .

I met Paul Anka while working at ABC Paramount in New York. It was in the early 60'. He was a gentleman then and a gentleman now. He took the time to say hello to everyone and mad an impression to remember. Thank you Paul for being so nice to everyone.
I didn’t discover Anka til the 70s. I was around when he came out but didn’t appreciate his music til an oldies station played “ Put Your Head on my Shoulder “ , I then discovered how talented he was. I bought the oldies greatest hits and his records there on. My favorite is “ Having My Baby “ ! Funny, I didn’t appreciate Brenda Lee either til I bought her lp “;Memphis Potrait “ and then bought all her records, prior and following ! The British Invasionmisled me in that time, now very lirttle of that invasion in still like ! It was over hyped !
I love you 😘 more,thanks so much for kind words and thanks for your lovely and support.I’m blown away by the love fans like you are the reason we keep moving forward
Anka has more talent in one finger than most of the new artists today. He is such a talented writer!
Maryann Chaisson ฝ
Yes he is
Maryann Chaisson And Canadian!! 🇨🇦
Agree
You said it. Song writers today don't have the extreme talent that he had and still has.
He's still the same when he talks when he was still young
Reina Hirayatt how
Yeah distinct lovely voice- I love the way he sounds when he talks...and sings.
Hi is the best.
Paul Anka is a true legend he had so many good hits and he seems like a very nice person Stay well Paul
He was top notch class act.
Mr Anka, respect and admiration for your career. And I know you are also a great Man! Thank you for all these beautiful songs.

Later switched into jeans, same white shirt and loafers. I was drooling! Class act. He sang every hit; performed over 2 hours. I will never forget this. What a legend.
Don't compare Paul to any one. He is the greatest talent of all time. Canada loves him.
Not even Sinatra!!!!
Of all time (????)🤔
I always thought that I would only adore the teen Paul Anka. Tthis video showed how charming he is even now... His voice and face reminds me of him in the 60s and I LOVE it
Annette funicello wanted to marry him when they were dating. From Ms. Harper Stacey.

Keep on singing up a storm Paul, still love YOU !
I noticed that his accent sounds more from New York, than Toronto or Canada.
i love how at one point he was the most famous singer in the world - and now hes such a chilled out, funny guy :)
He was funny back then, too, as well as very well-mannered.
I met him in the 80’s he flew into my hometown I worked for the airlines , friends were having me a birthday party in the cafe at the airport he came in gave me a birthday kiss I will never forget it
How sweet🥰
Wow. What a great memory that is for you.
Met Paul at the Riviera in Vegas when he had me on stage and sang "Put your head on my shoulder". Will always love you Paul....
Karen: I hate you. Just kidding. I envy you. What a great experience.
That's awesome Karen! I know its a memory you will carry for a lifetime! Thanks for sharing that. I really am jealous!
@@lilybond6485 I feel the same way! See my comment below
@Anita: Can’t find your comment.

The difference between Paul Anka and Justin Bieber is that Paul Anka really has TALENT.
Wonder if Paul Anka & Freddie Mercury would have gotten along.
Louise Binion What does Freddie Mercury have anything to do with this?
Laura Stone
Paul Anka is quite the homophobe, from all that I've heard - can't substatiate it, though. Maybe
he was come onto early in his career - IDK.

This was awesome.. This is the kind of music I listened to when I was a kid.. I cried when Elvis, Bing, Dino and Frank all Passed away .. I still have albums that are 78's, that is the speed you play them on, just to clarify not the year...
A real talented artist ...great singer, great songs that he has written
Grande Paul Anka , gran compositor y gran cantante
¡Sus canciones son un clásico!
You have done so much. Thank you
LOVE THIS GUY MY NO. 1 ON MY LIST
Hola qué lindo ver a Paul Anka. Me recuerda mi juventud sus lindas canciones todas .....saludos desde Toronto Canadá 🤭🤷⭐🌟
Being classy is something that Justin Bieber and so many of today's "performers" really know nothing about nor do they care to.
Amen.
You can't compare 2 totally different generations!! That doesn't make sense. And btw justin is a legend
@@Nermin_mira I do not think so... He uses more auto tu e than he really sings.
@@Nermin_mira paul est le mielleure et tres simple
DIANA IS ONE OF MY FAVR SONGS OF PAUL ANKA.
Loved Paul, Frankie Avalon, Fabian - all those guys. Great times, great music. We will never see those days again.
I had all three in my scrap book when I was a teen in the 60s. But...I also had a photo of Gary Moore...go figure.
Really excellent interveiw i was a teenager when he had all those hits . Most of them were romantic
Paul Anka not only a great talent but a brilliant business man must’ve been amazing living Paul’s life and growing up in that area I hope u know u r very blessed. Love u Paul Anka

Paul Anka is one of my favorite singers and I am only 8 yrs old

Joey Purczynski What Are You Talking About
He is pretty cool
I think you're a singer too, thats why

Paul Anka is part of my happy childhood! I thank God for him! 😊
Diana my favourite Song, love it love it, since I was three it got me.
I've known him through my father. I know his songs and even sing it every now and then.
Amazing voice still! May God bless you. May you live for Him.
I grew up a block from the Anka house in Ottawa in the 60s and went to school with Andy Anka. We would crawl under the porch to listen to Paul writing songs in the basement. Who knew??

Yeah. He was writing Hey Paula at the time so we had never heard it. He was just getting to be known back then. Shortly after they moved away.

What a very sharp, top shelf, custom designed dress shirt he has on! Class and cool all the way, to match his talent as well.
Congrats from a fellow Ottawan
