Summers at Wasaga Beach, on Georgian Bay, ON....Total '67-'68 flashback. My god it's beautiful. I'm a child, once more - And sleeping and sunburned in the backseat, after a day of barbecuing and swimming at the beach, as my Dad drives us back home. Simpler (and much happier) times, to be sure. Thank you, so, so much, aarons45s. It was like stepping into a time-machine, for me.
This makes me feel like getting dressed up to the 9's and getting on a Pam Am from New York to Paris whilst smoking a Pall Mall and drinking a dirty martini!
@Michael Garcia my parents bought their Chevrolet Impala that same year while the Beatles were on their tour, making their way from Toronto to Boston to Memphis. They bought it at a dealer in Silver Spring, Md. called Loving Chevrolet, it was a white two-door with a vinyl hardtop roof in black (!). I was about to start my first year of school and it made my parents daily routines far more convenient. I strongly suggest that anyone consider listening to Walter Wanderley hit song "Summer Samba" and then this song heard back-to-back for continuous listening pleasure.
I was a little child when this song was played on the radio, my era is the mid 70's, however I enjoy this song cause my brother and cousins used to play this music when I was a little kid.......
Wow ! I was so Young and bought one of my first LP ! It wwas Bob Crewe Generation, exactly this music was so goo to me !!! Now I found it again ! You tube you're fantastic !
Pure mystique and magic.I love the 60s and am proud to have been born during this era.Wish i could remember them though(at least the music because things werent that well for my people).
hijole que buen tema y que buenos recuerdos, mi papa tiene este disco y me cuerdo que tocaban la de la catedral de winchester un hombre y una mujer y me emocionaba mucho que mi papa lo pusiera, ojala suban estos temas a este sitio, muy bonita musica, saludos desde arandas jalisco mexico
This arrnagement by Bob Crew gives me goosebumps the way the second time around has a haunting string section, that is like a wayback thought in a movie about those days.
Its that last time through the chart, when the string section floats above it all....visual of memories in film clips sail past in my mind....strings make it haunting.
Thank God that I lived through the sixties. The music of the sixties was just great! I'd rather listen to this than all of this junk that's out today. In fact, one of the Music Choice channels is all uncensored rap!

Close...Diet Pepsi. It was one of many commercial jingles upon which were built hit records. Another example was 1965's "No Matter What Shape (Your Stomach's In)" by the T-Bones (who would later record as Hamilton, Joe Frank, and Reynolds), which came from an Alka-Seltzer commercial, and 1970's "We've Only Just Begun" by the Carpenters, which was derived from an old Crocker Bank commercial.

Those were the days when I was listening to the Boss Jocks on Famous 56, WFIL, and watching Green Acres.
10 miles down the road to the east EH !! I'm at the foot of Blue Mtn.
Hit me the Same Way! Beaches of Rhode Island and Cape Cod.
Like everyone else I thought it was Herb Alpert as well.......brings back my years of innocence. Loved it!

The music reminds me of riding in my Dad's 1966 Chevrolet Impala Convertible

I was in fourth grade when this song first came out! The music of my childhood, the 60's, still lives here in the 21st Century!
This is one song I don't turn off for anybody,and I do mean ANYBODY!

I eas s banf geek and this was the type of music we played and i loved it
The best version, thanks for posting.
Well I do like Andy Williams vocals....though I agree with you, this instrumental is priceless especially with the sax!
Hand,t heard this in 40 years..brought back great memories of my childhood and listening to mynparent's music...music I now enjoy too.
This song represented my entire adolescence and puberty- from the late 1960's into the early 1970's. What a remarkable melody.
I miss the 60's , never will come again, Sadly, wish sometimes I could have stayed there.forever.
Same here with me.

This tune is life itself. An absolute undiscribable Gemm of human perfection to ceativity.

I was only in fourth grade when this song first came. I just love this song.
I too, thought it was Herb Alpert. I'm just happy I found it. Love the vocal one as well.
Funnily, until tonight, I always thought it WAS Herb Alpert ! He obviously influenced others !
When this song was released I was seven years old and could only "watch" girls by.
Great music !
And a REAL LIVE brass section to boot,,,
it's been a long time since ive herd that one!!
THANK YOU For Posting This!!! YUMMY CRACKLEY VINYL!! That's Herb Alpert Yeah?
Nope. Bob Crewe Generation.
RIP, Bob.
(lyrics)
The boys watch the girls
While the girls watch the boys
Who watch the girls go by
Eye to eye
They solemnly convene to make the scene
Which is the name of the game
Watch the guy, watch the dame
On any street in town
Up and down
And over and across
Romance is boss
Guys talk
Girl talk
It happens everywhere
Eyes watch
Girls walk
With tender loving care
It's keeping track of the pack
Watching them watching back
That makes the world go round
What's that sound?
Each time you hear a loud collective sigh
They're making music to watch girls by
Guys talk
Girl talk
It happens everywhere
Eyes watch
Girls walk
With tender loving care
It's keeping track of the pack
Watching them watching back
That makes the world go round
What's that sound?
Each time you hear a loud collective sigh
They're making music to watch girls by
The boys watch the girls
While the girls watch the boys
Who watch the girls go by
Eye do eye
They solemnly convene to make the scene
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
1966. Wish I could go back.
Don't we all. I was only 4 at the time, but still. I remember hearing music like this on my dad's big stereo.
@@xaenon me too...I turned 3 in October of '66
@@Justine_Marie Exactly 3 years older than me. I was *born* in October of '66.
@@ApartmentKing66 far out! 🙂✌
Couldn't have said it better myself...
All these years I thought it was Herb Alpert.
Me to....
Me too. Great dancing tune.
Me three!
Watch episode six, season one of "Mad Men" and tell me if you do not believe the episode encapsulates this song perfectly.
Al was on the tonite show a lot.
@juppthetube no...bob crew generation.....I don't thing Herb Alpert ever recorded this song, but I could be wrong
I don't think so either. It WAS Bob Crewe.
Yup - always assumed Herb Alpert… but I find no evidence of Herb doing a version. I believe Al Hirt did, though.
I remember a chapter of the simpsons hahahaha xD
When Marge goes to the Mayor office, right ???
Aldurero Yes!!!!!
@mcav510 yes, and it makes me want to say things like "groovy" and "far out!" and "keen!"
mmm, new Diet Pepsi, with cyclamates...
Soooo Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. No?
Nope...Bob Crewe Generation (I had thought it was Herb too!;-) )
@@Justine_Marie The horn section had a lot of people thinking that. (Of course, the marimba probably had something to do with it too.)
Didn't they use this for a Tab cola commercial?

I remember this music also being used for a Yellow Pages commercial, with an ostritch running down the sidewalk, who gets to a phone booth at the end.

besides, I like Andy Williams and Lawrence Welk's versions better
