"Rag Doll" is a popular song written by Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio. It was recorded by the Four Seasons and released as a single in 1964. According to songwriter Bob Gaudio, the recording was inspired by an occasion involving the homeless children who, at stop lights in the city, would run into the street and clean windshields for spare change. In the Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan neighborhood, a young girl with a dirty face and wearing ragged clothes approached Gaudio's automobile. When he reached into his wallet to pay her, he found that none of the notes were smaller than $10. He gave the girl a $10 bill. (Some accounts indicate that it was a $5 bill.). "The image of her stuck in my head until I wrote 'Rag Doll'", Gaudio recalled in a 2009 interview.
Billboard described the song as a "sentimental slow dance ballad." Cash Box described it as "a touching, cha cha beat opus...that the group serves up in their fabulous style" and that features the "hit sounds" of Frankie Valli. In 1989, critic Dave Marsh ranked "Rag Doll" at No. 401 on his list compiled in the book The Heart of Rock and Soul: The 1001 Greatest Singles Ever Made, being one of five songs by the Four Seasons included in the book. In 1997, Mojo also listed the song as one of the 'Bubbling Under' singles in its list of 'The 100 Greatest Singles Of All Time'.
In 2010, radio station WCBS-FM in New York City rated the Four Seasons' "Rag Doll" as the No. 1 song of all time, as voted on by its listeners.
The B-side was the original version of "Silence Is Golden", also written by Crewe and Gaudio.

Such a high quality roster of songs - Talented band that's timeless..
Their greatest song. A true classic!
The production on this number is just fabulous!!!
Such cool songs back.then 🎉
The song that was so good that it successfully fought off the Beatles & British Invasion in 1964 and made it to the top, Probably saved their careers as many acts pre-1964 were never to be heard from again.
Keep in mind, the 4 Seasons had plenty more top ten hits after Rag Doll well into 1967 and then a few more a few years later.

Jerilyn is such a sweetheart!
👍
I was born in '79 and i would have put every last dollar, penny, dime on a bet if someone asked me what year this song is and i would have lost it all because i would have said it's from the 50's 100% 😲 I was very surprised it was from the 60's because it has the 50's sound.
Billy Joel took the last line for his biggest chart hit, I Love You Just the Way You Are ❤️
I fact checked myself and it wasn't his biggest chart hit. It's Still Rock n Roll with 2 others made it to #1. Just the Way You Are made it to #3. It did put him on the map and he hid the nod to Rag Doll...
Siempre se me ha hecho está canción de los Four seasons, tan nostálgica, pero es hermosa 👏🏻
Great matching of stereo to video Sammy.
Thanks Jacob.
