It's not that the 60s were especially colorful, this was the era when most people had black and white TVs, so shows like this pumped color EVERYTHING as a way to convince people to buy new color sets and to make people glad that they bought them. The NBC peacock was nothing more than an ad for color TVs, and every show title sequence bragged "In Color" . . . As a result of seeing the colors like this, fashion designers splashed colors around in real life. Then, about 1972, people got bored with the circus colors, and they rapidly went away.

@@EdKazO-Vision I am no boomer and know modern music is bland. Modern pop lacks depth of complex counterpoint, backup harmonizing, lack of good choruses, lack of creative guitar solos. 1960's music experimented with use of sitars, Hammond organs, harmonicas, theremins etc.. Plus analog sounds better. I am a musician and listen to recordings in detail and take note. The non musician also listens to details whether they are aware or not. Modern music lacks creativity instrumentally, lacks lyrical poetry, instrument diversity plus deficient in finding new beats and progressions that have not already been done long ago. The song in video is not so good by 60's standards.

Michael Bennett (April 8, 1943 - July 2, 1987) was an American musical theatre director, writer, choreographer, and dancer. He won seven Tony Awards for his choreography and direction of Broadway shows and was nominated for an additional eleven. Bennett choreographed Promises, Promises, Follies and Company. In 1976, he won the Tony Award for Best Direction of a Musical and the Tony Award for Best Choreography for the musical A Chorus Line. In 1966 he staged this performance of Petula Clark's new hit "A Sign Of The Times" for The Ed Sullivan Show. You can spot him as the bearded dancer who, doing a head-pop of his own at one point, loses his cap.

So, when this aired I was 8 years old. And this type of entertainment was on constantly among the 5 or 6 channels we had in the NY/NJ area and it came over the air for free. Now we have hundreds of channels that we pay high monthly amounts for and it is next to impossible to see anything this good.

Simeone once said, "If you can remember the sixties, then you weren't really there." I was there yet do remember Petula Clark. Great entertainer!

I was 13, and have often wished I could go back there for a short visit!

The very pretty and extremely talented actress, singer, dancer, entertainer, pianist, and songwriter Petula Clark is a fantastic and lovely lady! I was born in 1978! I love all her songs! The handsome and very pretty dancers are excellent! I have and always will be a fan of Petula Clark! Thank you for posting and sharing this classic performance!

But the costume lady did not fit the hat properly to one of the dancers. You can see the hat fell off the dancer and remained on the floor next to Petula for practically the whole number.

I love this video because it was well choreographed, presented and it did catch that time period perfectly. It is one really cool video. The outfits and colors capture the swinging 1960s perfectly!

What do you think of that guy with the beard who lost his hat, while doing that "little bit" and being backed up by the girls? Were guys suppose to have their hats pinned on too like the girls when they do a number? Was he like one of the lead dancers?

@@dttruman I think fashion like that was more common in London proper rather then England in general. Of course this being filmed for American television in the states perhaps it wasn't that common in the states. You just didn't see outfits in America like that. Expensive? I never wore clothes like that in the day

Love 💕💕💕that lady

Oh dear God. I wanna go back...I wanna go back. Sweet God.

Aw, bless her wonderful and talented heart for always! Today is November 15, 2023 - Petula Clark's 91st birthday. Bless her beautiful voice forever - she is still out there singing to this very day.

I was just a child in the 60’s but I remember a lot from it. A really fun and groovy era 😌😌😌❤❤❤

Hat's off to Pet!

Such a great song and a great time to be young listening to artists like Petula Clark. Wouldn’t change it for the world. This song reminds me of when we were kids my older sister and I use to try to imitate the dancers in the background. We’d always end up laughing so hard we couldn’t even keep up with the music. Good times. My heart aches for those days. Miss you sis.

Sorry for your loss Im only 40 but I know Petula Clark and to make you and everyone feel better I took my Mom to see Petula in AC and afterwards I pulled some rank to get backstage with my Mom and there was Petula sitting there all by herself and ends up we talked with her for 30 minutes and got pictures with. We talked about everything from that era to The Beatles and Tom Jones and I can tell you as a person shes as great as she is a singer. My Mom has passed now but I have those great pictures with her and I with Petula. Shes 90 years old now and going out on a little tour.. If you want to see a great video of Petula pull up Sign Of The Times by Petula Clark on The Ed Sullivan Show live. The colors, the cars everything of the times is in this video. How much the world has become so.much trash to.

@@trentaccid2177 Thank you for sharing your story. It made my day. I can’t imagine meeting her in person and on top of it getting to talk with her a while. I’m sorry for your loss as well but I’m happy we have such great memories to hang onto. I agree about what is called “entertainment “ today! I will definitely look up the video you mentioned. Wish you the best!

I had the privilege of doing stage security for a performance Petula Clark did 3 years ago here in Southern California. Definitely one of my all-time favorite shows in the 7 years I’ve worked this venue, and so great to see up-close. Even got to help her off the stage (not that she needed any help-she was still a powerhouse at 86). “A Sign Of The Times” has long been my favorite of many great Petula Clark songs that, for me, go all the way back to the iconic “Downtown”-when I was 7 years old. Petula’s voice is so incredibly bright, and clear, and pure. Crystal clear and sweet, yet powerful enough to match up perfectly with another classic Tony Hatch production-the booming drums, and those wonderful British Horns. Petula Clark-100% class and still pure joy to enjoy her music, all these years later.

Oh, Petula !!❤❤❤ will always be songs of my youth !!!!

Very sixties, I love it! Petula is lovely, and a fabulous singer.

Wonderful song, singer, choreography, and fashion. Colorful and fun all around.

I recall her performances on Sullivan, but not vividly until now. Wow! Just wow. She had the facial connection with viewers and the magnificent voice to make the music golden.

Classic Petula !

The quality of this clip is WAY WAY WAY better on the Petula Clark DVD

Yes I remember this time so well, when the world was fresh and shiny….what the hell happened ?

Despite the ridicule I sometimes I get, I continue to proclaim my great respect for Abba, for exactly that reason. I don't always feel obliged to consider the deep meaning of songs - sometimes they just make me happy. And that's okay in my view.
