Fabulous version of this song, I love It! Backup vocalists were incredible. 🎵💖🎵

Ruby and the Romantics had several other hits which were just as romantic as this one. You can see the overhead mics used for the Romantics. Overhead mics most often could not be seen for those old shows but they were often used for live TV shows.

This is the old Mike Douglas Show - an old weekday afternoon talk/variety show.

Wow..I'v only known of Fontella Bass singing this and Fontella's key changes in it are out of this world her version it's amazing!

Classic ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This was my jam❤❤❤❤❤❤…..growing up

Hey Yvonne 👋🏾 me too grew up on this song 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Wow, it's an actual live performance, love it! You're right. The Romantics were bringing those backing harmonies. This performance accentuates the samba/ bossa nova beat so popular in the early-mid 60s!

Oldie but goodie🎶💗🎶

Such an underrated and Talented group their harmonies are spot on.this maybe their only hit. But they recorded so many great songs.Sadly this is the only one they are known for Great reaction choice 👍👍

My streaming service introduced me to many of their other songs I didn't know about. One of my favorites is "Moonlight and Music".

I learned of this song from my uncle. He would sing it a lot. When my sister and I heard it on the radio, we got excited and told our mother they were singing "Uncle's song.😃

A classic 😊

This is live...loved this song when it came out...still enjoy it

Junior High School days!

Loving your reactions ❤❤old lady in Colorado.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

One of my favorite songs from the day. You’re right JJ the background singers are on fire!

She was told that Temptations listened to them to learn to harmonize.

Yes this was definitely live, not lip-synched. Even the TV band was good. The piano was outstanding.

Thank you, I will!

Amy Winehouse did a reggae cover of this one 👍

The over text is a shame because it covers her face throughout. But if that's the only surviving footage of their appearance, nothing much can be done about it I suppose. On the other hand, maybe some wizard with an AI can fix it, at least the "tele" bit.

She had such a pretty face, at least what we can see of it.
