I loved/love Bobby Darin. Dodd could not be a more shining bright light to his Dad's memory. God has blessed this family.
Dodd is one of the greatest achievements of Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee. What a nice man. Call him a Mench.
I never compared Bobby Darin to anyone else, he was one of a kind and very good looking.
Bobby Darin (born Walden Robert Cassotto; May 14, 1936 - December 20, 1973) Love never dies. What a beautiful family.
Dodd is such a class act. Bobby would be so damn proud of him, and his gorgeous girls and wonderful wife. Congratulations Dodd and Dad, and Darin fans. So well deserved. This is sweet.
Olivia Rae Darin is so beautiful.
Dodd Darin: a great guy and as beautiful a human being as his parents were.
You put it perfectly Don & you are so right! Dodd is an incredible son, honoring his parents memory in such memories! What an amazing man Dodd is!
Bobby Darin was a stand up guy. Dodd is a great son of two solid parents.
4.30min "He wasn't particularly good looking..." What? He was so good looking, very handsome and charming. His voice was so spellbinding. I really love the man and the artist he was...
Sandra Dee is one of the most beautiful actress in Hollywood. She was a good actress too. She had a very difficult childhood and suffered a lot because of that experience. All and all. She raised a good son. I still watch her old movies. So relaxing. Thank you Dodd for honoring your parents.
This literally has me crying. What a fine man. Your parents are extremely proud of you sir. Thank you.
For those too young to remember, Bobby Darin was the highest paid, most celebrated nightclub performer of his era. He was a combination of Frank Sinatra & Ray Charles, but with a suave and cool that was uniquely Darin. He had a genius IQ and unsurpassed wit and charm. Both Sammy Davis, Jr. and Wayne Newton called him "the greatest nightclub singer in the business." Had he lived, he would have been an icon to four generations of fans---his appeal was that all-encompassing. RIP to a legend.
Bobby Darin is one versatile recording artist that sang swing and rock and roll songs.
I so agree with everything you texted/wrote! Bobby Darin was one incredible man who’s talents were endless!🥰
Bobby Darin was the best of the best. Much love and respect to his work and his family.
May Bobby Darin & Sandra Dee “REST IN PEACE!”❤️
bobby so deserved this award even in his short time here on earth
"He never had an ounce of quit in him.." Beautiful Dodd-Beautiful.
I loved that line.
Bobby Darin won numerous Grammy awards, Golden Globe awards, Cannes Film Festival Awards; was nominated for an Academy Award. He is a member of ASCAP Hall of Fame, the R&R Hall of Fame; has stars on the Las Vegas and Hollywood Walks of Fame. He mastered rhythm and blues, rock, folk, jazz, blues, C&W, etc., and had hits in each of those musical genres. No other singer before or since has accomplished this feat. Now he finally got his Lifetime Achievement Award. It's about time.
Well said. Even after all these years, it saddens me that Bobby, and Sandra's life was heavy-ladened with such sadness and sorrow. But God has blessed them with such a loving family. Thank you, Dod, for keeping the Dream of your Dad alive in the hearts of those who knew him, and those who will.
Your dad was soo talented, He was among the best of ‘em. Your Mother was a peach.. You and your lovely girls honour them. ❤️
DODD DARIN
HE LOOKS LIKE HIS DAD
WHAT GORGEOUS PARENTS THAT HE HAD
SANDRA DEE AND BOBBY DARIN HE WOULD BE PROUD OF HIS GRANDDAUGHTERS AND HIS SONI WOULD LIKE FOR HIM TO KNOW THAT I LOVE BOTH OF HIS PARENTS I LOVE BOBBY SONG DREAM LOVER THAT'S MY FAVORITE I APPRECIATE Y'ALL FOR SHOWING THIS THANKS AGAIN❤
This young man is a real winner.
What a lovely man you are Dodd, Bobby and Sandra are so proud of you, you turned out just fine, thank you for sharing your parents.
Dodd gave such a heart warming and beautiful tribute. I beg to differ on only one thing, Bobby was good looking to many of his fans for sure. :)
Yes. I think BD/WRC was physically beautiful, with or without hair, because his spirit was beautiful.
I so agree with you SoothingChime15....Bobby was EXTREMELY good looking! I can watch his Dream Lover video all day long - the confidence and "swagger" he has on that stage, oh my gosh!!!! And that thing that he does with his shoulders and hands - he simply oozes appeal!!! The way he carried himself made him all the more attractive! And, I have to add too that I just love Dodd. I have seen him in a couple of interviews now and how proud Bobby and Sandra can be of this fine man .... I realize that we are seeing mere seconds of his life, but he truly comes across as such a kind, gentle, and humble man! You see so many Hollywood/show biz "kids" who either take advantage of who their parents are by trying to "cash in" on their fame; or, you see them excusing their own embarrassingly messed up behavior because of all that went wrong in their parents' lives - Dodd appears to have done neither of these .... rather, he appears to love both of his parents very deeply - in spite of their flaws and shortcomings - and he shows that love with such great respect and pride. I really admire that about him and how openly loving he is towards both Bobby and Sandra. What a wonderful son they have!

Bobby Darin was very handsome and very sexy too. I cannpt see why that was ever questioned. He had a gorgeous smile.
I soooo agree with you Mosaic that I too, disagreed with Dodd, concerning his “father’s looks! “It was the “only “thing I disagreed with ( what a great son Dodd is!)but was shocked when Dodd said that in his speech! I thought “Is Dodd kidding??”🤣I thought Bobby Darin was handsome, sexy, full of personality & just downright gorgeous! He was so charismatic & literally lite up the stage when he walked on it. He was so savue, sophisticated just downright “cool!” Loved the way he dressed & remember thinking how handsome I thought he was as a little girl, looking at my mother’s movie magazines w/ Bobby & Sandy featured on every other page, back then! Ha! He was such a handsome guy & he & Sandra made an incredible looking couple! Bobby Darin was most definitely”good looking”, to say the very least!🤣
the world aught to be be thankful for people like Dodd Darin- who expresses his heartfelt warmth and tender feelings of his father, Mr Bobby Darin- a true and special person God endowed us with. Thank you Mr. Walden Robert Cassotto and thank you Jesus
What an incredible son Dodd is, a product of the great love between his extraordinary mother, Sandra Dee & his multitalented father, Bobby Darin. What a legacy to their great love, Dodd is! Their grandchildren Olivia &
Alexia are absolutely beautiful children!!! They would be so proud, if they were both alive today, to see the beautiful son & his family, that are left to carry on the touching legend that “was” Sandra & Bobby! Listening to Dodd give such a moving tribute to his parents that he obviously loved so much is heartwarming! Dodd’s father would be so proud of the moving tribute & deep love Dodd so eloquently spoke of, in his speech honoring his father! May God Bless Todd & his beautiful family! 🥰
Dodd gave such a wonderful speech and tribute to his amazing dad. It brought me to tears. I know that Bobby is so proud of his son, Dodd Darin. He looks so much like his dad.
I loved Bobby Darin...I was heartbroken when he died.
Dodd your parents are very proud of you I am sure.
I am reading Dodd's book on his parents "Dream Lovers". I know this video was about 7 years ago...his beautiful daughters are more grown, and more years have passed, but this is one sensitive and loving son and obviously loving father. Dodd, you have also been a privilege to know through the history of your parents lives that you have compassionately woven into your world to continue to share with us. Good luck in all your endeavors if you ever read this comment:) and many blessings to your family:)
I am reading "Dream Lovers" right now and find it fascinating. Dodd is extremely open and honest about his parents with all their flaws and struggles. I highly recommend it if one is truly interested in this pair.
I just finished Dream Lovers a couple days ago. WOW. Fascinating.
Thank-you Diane, Angela & Jill for your recommendation on Dodd’s book! I so appreciate your telling me( all of us) about his book “Dream Lovers”, based on his parents. I was totally unaware of Dodd’s book so I sincerely appreciate all of your comments! I absolutely am going to run out & get it & thank-you all for recommending it. On another blog/site showcasing Bobby Darin it had a play entitle “BEYOND THE SEA”, that had opened(w/ Coronavirus it may have sadly closed by now) that everyone was talking about. It is on UTUBE & Dodd opened the play, the first night. He was recommending the play on stage & I am now wondering if the play is based on his book, even though it is a different name. They were talking about this movie so much & so many comments recommending it, that I watched the movie today with my husband. I definitely will buy Dodd’s book “DREAM LOVERS” this week & can’t wait to read it! Thanks again for telling us all about Dodd’s book!🥰
Had tears in my eyes when Dodd spoke of his dad.Such a unforgettable speech..👍👏
Me too!😢
He named his older daughter Alexandra after his mother. Sandra Dee's real name was Alexandra
Sandra Dee was beautiful.
@@legendaryTMNICO So are her grand-daughters
I have seen this a few times now and each time it touches my heart and soul deep. Dodd Darin is truly the loving son of his parents Bobby Darin and Sandra See. Dodd gave the most honest and touching tribute to both of his parents, especially his Dad. Seeing Dodd sharing this awesome moment with his beautiful daughters is something priceless that they shall never forget, truly a ' Darin History Moment' indeed. Of all the awards that Bobby Darin was awarded over the many years, even since his passing this is the most honoured one of all. No one has ever come anywhere near close to Bobby Darin's brilliance in this industry, he stands out the most accomplished of all singers / entertainers of all time. Dodd is right, "It is not the length of time a man lives but the legacy that he leaves behind him. Bobby Darin achieved this and how. An extremely honoured award long over due but all the sweeter for Dodd Darin and his family to treasure. RIP BOBBY YOUR THE TRUE LEGEND OF ALL TIME !!!!
I saw Bobby Darin in the sixties what a showman I loved his songs keep entertaining in heaven with Elvis .pat Liverpool uk.
I hope he is singing with the angels now.
What a beautiful and loving speech ❤️
😭😩😢 So touching. Bobby would have been so proud of this and of his beautiful granddaughters.
I remember this night. It had snow storm at my house the electricity was out and the only way to watch this was by a computer. I forgot how I found out about lifetime rewards novelists but I remember praying and rooting for him to win.
What a great son
We loved Bobby Darin, great performer!!
Your Dad’s music is still a huge part of my 75 year old life. I loved him and was thrilled by his talent, his strength, and his heart, when I was young and cherish his magnificent talent all these years later. Somewhere beyond the sea, I hope to meet him one day. Your Mom was so special, too. Thank you for all your parents meant to so many. 👏🏻💕
So so touching how proud would his Dad be looking down on his loving Son .my husband's and my favourite love song Beyond The Sea for special reasons .
God bless Dodd and his family. Bobby Darin was good looking......at least in my opinion.
A great tribute made with great love.
You're a great man Dodd..Alexa looks a bit like your mom. God love all of you.
Dodd, I’ve heard you speak of your father many times, and each time is resounding class and heart felt sentiment. You are in my opinion, a fine human being and a true testament of excellent upbringing by your parents. I enjoy your dad’s music very much. All the best to you and your family!
I will never be another Bobby Darin
Dodd, how proud he would be to see you today...We are..Thank you, for the emotional tribute as hard as it was for you..
Great speech.
Bobby Darin The Best Ever Love Him And Sandra D 😇 RIP
Bobby Darin the voice 50 and 60 King 👏🎤🎹🎸🕴🎶🎵🎵🎤🎙🙏

Pure gold class
Dodd you have done your parents Proud xoxo ☮💜✝️🌹❌⭕❌⭕💞🎶🎵
Sandra Dee And Bobby Darin ❤ Two Of The Greatest Ever RIH Beautiful Angels We Love And Miss Y'all 💘 ❤ ♥
Bobby Darin a Rock n Roll singer hit SPLISH SPLASH, A Cabaret singer hit Mack the Knife a Pop singer with the song he wrote and preformed IF I WAS A CARPENTER. HE did the rounds despite his short time here.
I sooooo loved “IF I WAS A CARPENTER” & a song that you don’t see mentioned often only because Bobby Darin had so many incredibly popular songs! They were all gorgeous songs! Loved “Dream Lover, Beyond The Sea, etc but there was something very, very special( as there was about all his songs, actually🤣) to my ❤️ heart, about the song “IF I WERE A CARPENTER!” Thanks for mentioning a song I loved so very much!🥰
I LOVE BOBBY DARIN I REMEMBER LISTENING TO HIS VERSION OF.. THINGS.. ,IN A COFFEE SHOP IN THE EARLY 60S, I STILL LOVE THIS SONG , BRINGS BACK GREAT MEMORIES .HE DIED MUCH TO YOUNG...... R.I.P BOBBY
He seems a very lovely man..his parents would be very proud.
in a way how lucky Dodd was because he had a parents that loved him and he loved them back. Not many children have that luck...
...and THAT is a true statement! Believe me! I was 14 when my parents divorced in 1977 and it ruined my relationship with both.....*...This was so touching that I cried, I too make my life ENTERTAINMENT! I loved Bobby Darin, Sinatra, Elvis, Tom Jones.....Jackie Wilson, just to name a few! Find me here....NICKYDEPAOLA.COM...*..Respectfully!
I agree that Bobby Darin was extremely sexy, but I do think he was good looking as well. Lots of people used to think he wasn't, and I just don't get that. He definitely had a complex about his looks, and Dodd looks like him so he grew up thinking he wasn't good looking either and he is(in my opinion, of course)!
Todd your father was a great,singer and deserves all the equates that come his way.
LOVED AND LOVE BOBBY DARIN. 🙏🏻❤️
Un reconocimiento muy merecido, Darin fue y es una gran figura de la música, ilimitado y se ve que un maravilloso padre que enseñó a su hijo a ser leal y agradecido y eso vale, aunque algunos no lo comprendan.
Bobby was very good looking man. Funny how some people do not think they are...
Wow. Such a beautiful speech.
Just like seeing his dad live again
Supet man and singer.. wont forget mack the knife dream lover and splish splash i was taking a bath loved Sandra dee. I was 13 seeing her in gidget and followed all her great movies what a cutie. Such a sad life for a good person
Great job with the timing on this. Dodd's words match the video! My comments however are on Laura's page since she was first to post the live feed event! I'll continue to watch and rewatch at least 37 times since that's how many years I've been waiting for this award!
This might be offensive and a very unpopular opinion, but
i think Bobby was better than Sinatra, the best in his field.
I agree 100% glad someone else thinks the same.
Yes,he was the best in his field! a lot of life went out of Bobby when Robert Kennedy Died!
A number of people were better than Sinatra. Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. for starters.
Frank Sinatra was a great singer and a fine actor. However, Bobby was both of those, Frank's equal or better. Bobby was much more at ease as a performer, and better at making the audience forget anything but his amazing singing and dancing and musicianship. Sinatra was ofen uncomfortable and awkward. I personally always feel uncomfortable watching Frank, I have empathy for his discomfort. But Bobby was a COMPOSER and a virtuoso musician (five different instruments, performance mastery). Frank was neither of those. Bobby was also a gifted impressionist, and gifted with accents. Frank was not. Really no comparison of their talents.
There are a number of reasons why Sinatra was considered to be the top singer, even by many musicians and singers. There was his unique phrasing ability and his sense of how the music should feel and sound. Bobby Darin no doubt was one of his talented successors, but he was at least partly influenced him (as son Dodd acknowledges), as he did for many in the generations that came after. What Darin had that Sinatra may not quite have had (though much had to do with the desire to do so) was the ability to effortlessly go from music genre to music genre successfully. Sinatra didn't like rock & roll so he rarely ventured outside the standards, but if he had wanted to I'm sure he could have done it well. Anyhow, you can enjoy and admire both performers without putting one down.
Really, you're dad wasn't especially good looking? I beg to differ. A very handsome man, a very talented man. A good man.
Dodd stated elsewhere that his dad didn't think he was good looking, so that's probably what Dodd meant. Anyway, nobody thinks their own mom or dad is beautiful/handsome. :-)
Ibill and lisA
I thought the same thing ( ha) & thought how incredibly handsome Bobby Darin was! He was so downright sexy too!
Oh, I thought he was VERY good looking! RIP, Bobby... love you. 🙏🏻❤️
Beautiful man
Beautiful!! Beautiful 😍
WALDEN ROBERT CASSOTO..."ONCE UPON A TIME"
Truly a great entertainer.

So true he was amazin he was cheeckie 💜💜💜
sounds just like Bobby .... man o man.

He was a good looking man.
Great bobby

What? Was that a "thank you for crying, Dodd" moment? What a dumb thing to say! Dodd was being SINCERE!
This is just my personal view, but I didn't see the point of mentioning the name of the person who didn't want Kirby as an opening act. What's the point? The story could have been told without mentioning anyone's name. The person was simply representing policy anyway. The story could have favored his dad without mentioning names.
Darin in fact was an extraordinary talent. "Mack the Knife" must surely rank among the great pop records of the 20th century. He was also a gifted composer and, even more than Dylan, changed personas. His other talents included impressionist skills and acting, as his son also said. I thought his later folk-styled songs were as good or even better than his earlier pop songs, though, like Anka and the Everly Bros. he was identified too much with the pre-Beatle era. Frankly, to my mind at least, Paul Anka is a far greater song composer than Paul McCartney, but you couldn't tell that to the Beatle generation . And Darin was, to my mind, more original than Dylan. But you could never tell that to a Dylan generation.
Mentioning The Names Of Discriminatory Power Players " Is " Still Important. Not " Every " Club Was Blocking African Americans. I've Read That The Man Mentioned Had A " Personal " Bias..& That Is Why His Name Was Included. Everything Else You Said Is " Right-On-The-Money. Darin...Should Be Remember..As One Of The Greats !!!
I agree with you, James. I mean, first of all, it's pretty clear that Dodd didn't mention names with the intention of hurting anyone; and certainly, the incident happened long enough ago, why would it even matter that Dodd said the person's name? He was simply sharing a heart-felt story about Bobby that would help convey the type of man he was - a story that obviously impacted Dodd as well in some way. I personally was very touched to learn that Bobby even cared about such things, and really never thought a thing about the names of the people - just that Bobby fought like that for someone else. It is confusing to me why some are bothered by such things (like Dodd mentioning a name) when really, that was so insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
Mentioning the name meant nothing more than another part of his dafs story. There eere people wirh those views. And then there was Bobby Darin and people like him who used his position to make a change. Thankfully he did. That's the importance of the story.
2010?!?!? It took that outrageously long to recognize BD's Lifetime Achievement? WTF?
And not during the prime-time televised Big Show Grammies. Boy, the rigged system sure didn't want the stars they invested in (Sinatra, Bennett, Dino, Martino) to have competition, did they? CRAPitalism STINKS.

I agree too! It infuriated me that this “tribute”(?????) was not given during the actual GRAMMIES!” What kind of “tribute” is that? Let them cut out some of their “moronic jokes”, that aren’t very funny anyway & drop a commercial & then they will have enough time! They need to properly respect and honor an entertainer that was absolutely extraordinary, never mind this “side bar”, back room quasi tribute! I realize this was done a few yrs ago but I don’t care! “THIS AWARD/TRIBUTE NEEDS TO BE RESCHEDULED & REDONE, SHOWING PROPER RESPECT TO BOBBY DARIN DURING THE “GRAMMY’S” MAIN SHOW & not as a lack luster after thought, pushed in the background! I realize the actual award was already given & that is unimportant. Honoring this incredible man, showing his memory the proper respect it deserves needs to be redone on prime time & I for one, plan on sending a letter in to the voting body & as many addresses as I can find, as well as personally calling them, to tell them how I feel! Bobby Darin deserves better!🥰
@@karenstrycharz1499 I haven't watched the Grammies in years. There's nothing to watch.
you have yr dad's voice-too bad you don't sing! But, yr wrong! We thought he WAS "particularly good looking". We still miss him, also! Very sad that yr parents split.
The comment below was meant as a reply to you, apollowoman, but I guess I didn't press reply hard enough... Oops!
Dodd wow now lead these dear ones you have come to know to Jesus Christ Thru SBN “Sonlife Broadcasting Network” / sonlife.tv
