This brings back such memories - even as a kid I looked forward each week to the Hit Parade. I actually grew up with the Hit Parade - from the time I was 6 until it ended. But they forgot Rosemary Clooney.
What a big star Gisele MacKenzie was. She kind of carried the show. It went off the air when she starred in her own show on Saturday nights, The Gisele MacKenzie Show. .
Eileen, Giselle and June had amazing voices. Eileen's rich tone and breath control so moved me, it brought tears to my eyes. I was only 8 or so when Hit Parade was televised - too young to appreciate their talents like I do now.
Hi, love the show, love the songs., when I got back from China, I was surprised to hear that they had changed the title of too young, to: they tried to sell us Egg Foo young L O L
Its not the same, without High End Set Design and Costumes , doing a song set to the a mini story like music Video, just standing infront of a dead background and singing standing still to a piano don't get it
I think Giselle McKenzie stood above all of the performers on Your Hit Parade. I know that Jill Corey is still with us, I'm guessing we've lost all the other Paraders....
NOW 84 I RECALL & LOVE ALL THOSE YEARS OF MY YOUTH!!! BEYOND SPECIAL!!!
I wish there were more survivors.
My whole youth just flashed before me ! Oh vay !
The re-Union show now like 46 years ago. All sadly deceased. Some sooner, some later. A rude awakening of my mortality I’m 77.

Have just discovered this Hit Parade show and realize that music quality became lost in the rock & roll era. (

I realize I'm kind of randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to watch newly released movies online ?
@Brentley Bobby I use FlixZone. Just google for it =)

I must regretfully advise you that Miss Corey has now joined her fellow Hit Parade colleagues in heaven.
