I am grinning so broadly I think my face is going to crack in two. 🤣

Connie is 84 years old. Bobby died back in 1973 at the age of 37. He had serious health problems his entire life and repeated bouts of rheumatic fever as a boy left him with a weakened heart. He was well aware that he might not get to be an old fellow and lived his life accordingly.

And not a bad actor either! Was very saddened when he died. Saw this when I was seven as we watched Ed Sullivan every Sunday night.

Same condition that killed Lou costello

Terrific. His hair's not long enough to be the nation's idol! Darin was one cool cat, man.

Wow! I have seen the first half before, and adored it for years, but I have never seen that "You're the Top" bit before. It is just SO MUCH FUN, and classy in a way that has all but evaporated in modern pop. What a joy to watch even sixty years later!

Connie has style and class and I love all of her songs since I was a child when my Dad had her records !

Just FABULOUS both Bobby and Connie.Their Songs will be treasured forever.They truely are Legends .

I never saw any singer bring more emotion to a song as Connie did when she sang Mama. Check it out.

Love Connie. So elegant

Joyas de la tv antigua, maravillas sin igual, felicitaciones .

What a sweet pair of duets! They sounded so good together!

"Splish Splash...he was taking a bath". And She was "Where the Boys Are"... Great pair of late 50's and early 60's singers/ actors. Never have seen them together tho. Bobby married Sandra Dee....he died way way too young. Good video. Thank you for posting it. Memories...Ed had a great show where Sunday Night. 🎶💫💫🎶

One day I hope me and my hubby are like this! Beautiful

Love brought these two artists together as they were romantically involved. As Connie would later share in an interview, they were planning on eloping, but Connie's father put an end to their plans. As a result, Bobby would marry Sandra Dee by the end of 1960. But what a special moment in time as Bobby just scored the biggest hit of 1959 & Connie was starting a long run of continuous hit records.

Marvellous; finally more Connie Francis on this great channel. It is really nice to see these two songs as one clip, but ... as there are still about 25 of Connie's performances on the show that have yet to be presented here I think it is a bit of a shame to start recycling clips that are already available. Please put on Connie's renditions of Going out of my head/Sunny, The impossible dream, I found myself a guy, the medley of her million sellers or the complete Judy Garland medley. Thank you!

Excellent performances for both of them! I love this medley! Bobby and Connie have voices that mesh well. Thank you for sharing this.

Glorious 👏...i love it, thanx for this wonderful clip! TOP👍

Great chemistry and they sing together very well. I wish they could have worked together more. Sad that Connie's father didn't like Bobby. Crazy.

Bobby Darin passed so young,...R.I.P

i loved this thank you for the posting😊

Danke sehr schöne Musik

Paesanos are always the best

..fun..

60-е годы. Шоу Саливана...

👑 Connie you're the Queen and My favorite singer. Bobby is ok but a real man would have cooled off after a father threatened him and if he had brains he would have known that your father would not actually do anything to him and end up in jail when he was in charge of your career with you and becoming a millionaire. He had a wife and kids. Bobby let you down by not simply waiting a little while for you to get married. Real love does not have someone giving up on the other person. He owes you if he tries to get back with you. 😉 ❤

Can anyone explain why Connie is not in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, other than political?

It's not political, the place has been a joke for the last 2 decades.

Connie must have been REALLY short if she was that much shorter than Bobby Darin.

Isn't that already on the channel?

as separate clips, but this is the full version.

You're The Top... a terrific song written by americas Greatest ever songwriter Cole Porter...can hardly be sung bad....of course both artists were far better on their own.....BTW....you get a glimpse of why bobby Darin was considered a real wise azz....and disliked by many musicians here....

@@nanettenn9734 Woulda, shoulda, coulda 😂🤣 but let’s deal with facts over feelings. Frank was with the Hoboken four, Harry James, Tommy Dorsey, Nelson Riddle, Count Basie and oh yes Quincy Jones. Frank was a big influence on Miles Davis on how Frank approached singing ballads. Oh did I mention Frank Sinatra’s acting chops and how he broke down certain racial barriers in America ?
