Del Shannon was one of the best songwroter/performes of the era of the 60's. His songs will live on forever and I perform a few of his most popular songs at shows that I do. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, people want to hear them. Secondly, I feel the need to pay tribute to him for the enjoyment he brought to my generation! I wish he could have had the opportunity to talk out his problems with a professional instead of haveing taken his life! His talent is sorely missed!
No we didn't get to keep Del Shannon forever. But we do get to keep his wonderful music forever. So sad. So so so tragic for Del. So much talent and incredible music. I will love you forever 💖 Rest in Paradise 💗💗 Del!
I saw Dell at the Guildhall Portsmouth around 1963 WITH MY Girl friend who became my wife Great Songs Shannon died too young I still ,sing his songs on the stage
I learned about music from the 50's and 60's in high school and this was one of my faves back then. Until recently I only knew the recorded version but this live version is really great.
He set the standard for the Beatles , the Stones and many groups that would follow in subsequent years. HE was the voice of classic rock. Sad that he didn't fully realize how much impact he had and how revered he was.
I saw Del at the state fair in 1980. Detroit. He was from the area. He mentioned this girl. He said last heheard she was living around here somewhere. Then he sang. Excellen
Those good ole days when there were towns where everyone hung out outside at burger or ice cream joints and knew everyone...now the lyrics of this song would be “here she comes sexy you tube flirt” ...those decades of innocence are long gone
Remember seeing Del Shannon in Aberdeen Scotland back in Aberdeen on the Rock n Blues gig tour, he was great , the other acts were Bo diddley, marvalettes, Frankie ford, rick nelson,
Saw Del live in concert in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire, UK. Unlikely but true. A few weeks before that Roy Orbison at the same venue. DL. Staffordshire UK
Such a waste. Still remember the day in 1990 when the news came through of his passing. So annoyed I never saw him perform on his frequent visits to Australia. RIP Del, we miss you so much.
He had so many great songs and sang them for so many years, but to find that he couldn't continue because of the feeling he couldn't go on in life and took his own. What can we do for people who have this feelings that life is ending without reason. I don't know the answer, but we all should try to help with people who have these same thoughts.
HINDSIGHT IS PERFECT / I WENT TO FLA (DAYTONA) FEB FOR 30 YEARS 1975 TILL 2005 / I WISH I SPENT THE TIME / GO TO KISS-A - MEE FLA AND SAW DELL LIVE AT VENUE THERE
Del was great, and had a fantastic talent, singing, songwriter, etc, yet killed self. Goes to show you, depression is nothing to ignore. Seek help from family and health professional s, r I p del, you are missed
All Del Shannon fans rejoice as there is an Australian Production Show about to tour all around Australia with a World Class Tribute To Del Shannon & Roy Orbison Together In Concert - hopefully they can take the show around the world - I cannot wait and might even make the trip to Australia in early 2014.
I would love to have flirted with Del Shannon. Omg it breaks my heart that I never had the opportunity! I just loved you so much! Still do and I always will!
He was on top back to stardom and he took his life, Depression is a scary thing for many , if you need help please don't hesitate go to the nearest Reachout center, I MISS YOU! I was in London when we got the bad news xxx
Wow! Another hidden track from Del. I can only assume there are more hidden gems knocking about and hopefully someone, somewhere, will unearth them. Another album, similar to the Dublin Session maybe?!!
He didn't realize what an awesome talent he was, maybe he'd have been with us much longer if he had. I read he wanted to do C&W music but his agents wouldn't let him. They wanted him to stay with RnR. He could do it all back then and did it with style, Del Shannon Style.
Love Del Shannon he was so underrated.

i think this song captures the spirit of the early sixties better than any other.
Rock - a -Billy at it's best! Back when we all respected each other's music
Del Shannon was a great singer!
Still great to see him and hear him in a different time in his life and career!
He set the standard for the Beatles , the Stones and many groups that would follow in subsequent years. HE was the voice of classic rock. Sad that he didn't fully realize how much impact he had and how revered he was.
Thanks for all the great music Del! Rest In Peace Del.
I heard this song on the radio this morning and then tonight they played "Runaway". Man, he was so great.
For sure all the incredible singers of that era may their music live forevermore
only 58,000 views.......for a 'legend' like this guy.
I never tire of his music. In fact, seems I can't get enough. Thanks to rockinkb.
Thank God for Del Shannon!!!

We don't have good Singer like this, The ones today Just Scream, You cant understand a word,
Love this concert! Played it about 18 times on the day I got it lol.
Richie Betz - I do too - lol
An original play maker of rock n' roll who sounded even better with age.
Great voice, even after all these years.

Del Shannon lives on forever !!
Del Shannon was a stronger singer later in his career. It seems that way to me.
I know. It sounds better. His early voice is vaguely annoying in fact.
He was hungry when he started out. These later videos show a successful professional. This is the way of the world :D
Of course I'm singer's improve over time some of them just abused s*** and get a shity f****** voice
Sorry, but. Dell sung better when young. Still superb when older.

thank you rockinkb
sos un grande shannon ...que te ma sos
❤️🇹🇭❤️🇹🇭❤️🇹🇭❤️🇹🇭❤️🇹🇭❤️
Zawsze Del był moim idolem przez 50 lat
awsome
This guy was a rare talent. Before my time tho thx to this I get it. I could picture John lennon doing this song tho even he couldnt do it as good.
He didn't realize what an awesome talent he was, maybe he'd have been with us much longer if he had. I read he wanted to do C&W music but his agents wouldn't let him. They wanted him to stay with RnR. He could do it all back then and did it with style, Del Shannon Style.
Awesome
Anche questa deliziosa song è stata interpretata dagli Smokie (1975) Thank rockinkb !!!
He's really feeling it....!
Like Roy he sang some dark songs a major talent
les americains j adore
