Connie Francis is a female icon too. For those of us young teenagers in the early 60's, we loved her!,
Love that you guys are willing to dive deep in to the older music.

Connie Francis one of the true greats. Doris Day. Brenda Lee. Genuine talent. ❤❤❤
Wow what a voice Connie Francis has. And she is quite beautiful!
This song " Where The Boys Are" [1960]. Made the City of Fort Lauderdale, Florida world famous. It became the Mecca of spring break for college students throughout the United States and Canada. Connie Francis also stars in the film by the same name. Brilliant!

Absolutely! She was a funny little fireball in that one and had a lot of "presence" in her very small role. It's one of my favorite beach movies because it included a cautionary tale in with some of the goofiness and her fun songs.

Several years ago, I taught some songs of Connie Francis (Mr. Love, Three Good Reasons and Never On Sunday) to my senior-high students in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Connie is another one of the great young lady singers of the late 50's - early 60's. Some of her hits were "Stupid Cupid", "My Happiness", "Among My Souvenirs", "Lipstick on Your Collar", "Who's Sorry Now" & "Frankie". She recorded many of her songs in other languages. And she did the singing voice for some actresses in a few movies.

This was Ft Lauderdale s song. Connie was so talented. Very kind to visit our soldiers in Vietnam during Bob Hope s Christnas shows there in the late 60 s and early 70 s I believe. Her voice was so beautiful. She can sing in Italian and Spanish also.
She doesn't just have a voice, her voice is Divine, a Godly or Heavenly gift, A Godsend for us to enjoy for years to come! She sang so effortlessly, her voice and tone is so smooth and perfect, and her range and control is unbelievable! I would say that without a doubt she's probably the best vocalist of all times even greater than some of the greats such as Elvis, Sinatra, Ray Charles, etc... She set the bar so high that you'd have to make it into Heaven to catch her!

@@miamidolphinsfan Don't get me wrong, Patsy Cline was very good. It's quite a shame she died young, it's actually a shame that both of their singing careers were cut short. Now on a personal note, there's just something about Connie Francis's voice that sets it apart from most others. There are a few others that were close such as Dolly Parton, Dusty Springfield, Janis Joplin, Whitney Houston, Carrie Underwood, Leona Lewis, etc... However, since the time of posting this I've come across a beautiful young lady who has a heavenly voice and she kind of reminds me of a younger modern version of Connie. Her name is Lucy Thomas. She also does duets with her younger sister and they are great together. I still think Lucy has the better voice of the two but yeah every time I hear her voice... well let's just say you might want to check her out. You can find her here on Y.T. if you're not already familiar with her. She's done quite a few covers of some great classics. Two of them so far is Hallelujah, and a duet with her sister What a Wonderful World from Ray Charles. She's amazing.
Connie has the most Beautiful Voice of anyone she never recorded a Bad song a true talent
This song was written by Howard Greenfield and Neil Sedaka for Connie and the movie in which it was the title song! It became Connie's signature song!

AND Connie was IN the movie "WHERE THE BOYS ARE"
Connie had 35 top 40 hits in the 50's and 60's, lots of ballads but also some upbeat numbers like "Everybody's Somebody's Fool"
Breaking In A Brand New Broken Heart, Someone Else’s Boy, Who’s Sorry Now, epic and legendary by this lovely lady.
Connie also recorded some songs with a 14 year old Hank Williams Jr. One of the songs was Send me the pillow that you dream on. Check it out!
We just watched Where The Boys Are two nights ago. When my mother in law was young she looked like Miss Francis.’s twin, she was beautiful
Connie Francis was very popular in the late 50’s - 60’s ! I remember my older brother had an album of hers & we knew all the songs 💓 ‘Who’s Sorry Now’ in another of her big hits💜🇨🇦☮️
With this song and the movie of the same name, she was responsible for popularizing Spring Break. Fort Lauderdale was never the same after this song and movie. She is honored in that city.
Her singing voice and face are quite delightful! Adorable!
Such a beautiful woman with an absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous voice. Connie Francis has come through some very sad and traumatizing events in her life. My favorite songs are "My Happiness" and "Whos Sorry Now" "Don't Break the Heart that Loves You" and of course the one you just listened to "Where the Boys Are"
What a superb choice, from 1960! You two have just been blessed again with hearing one of the finest female voices in music history. She was also one of the best selling artists of all time, with numerous #1 hits. (See listings in the other comments; plus her Country style US Billboard #1 ballad, "My Heart has A Mind Of its Own") I predict that Mel will be signing this one in the shower later.
CONNIE FRANCIS has one of the greatest voices ever. I KNOW HER MUSIC AND THIS WOMAN CAN SING ANYTHING. LOVE HER VOICE Listen to TAMMY and LIPSTICK ON YOUR COLLAR., it's fun too.
Great reaction! You guys need to check out her song, “Everybody’s Somebody’s Fool!” It’s one of my favorites!

what a pure powerful voice. She was sexually assaulted as a young woman and it took awhile for her to come back from it but she had the guts to do it
In the song, "Al Di La" she sings the verses in english and Italian. She does a fantastic job on this song! Try it, you'll like it!

Title cut from movie of same name, also hit a big hit with "WHO'S SORRY NOW" 1958.

What a voice Connie Francis has! She had a lot of wonderful hits. I especially have fond memories of Lipstick on Your Collar because I was so young when it was released that I had to ask my Mom why lipstick on someone's collar was a problem. Now I can't imagine being that naive. LOL I like what you said about feeling as if you were in a daydream. That's exactly right; that's how she makes you feel. Singer Chris Isaak said a few years ago that he took his Mom to see Connie Francis and it was great. I'd love to see her live. That voice! I know I already said that, but it's exceptional. She did a gorgeous version of Senza Mamma from the opera Suor Angelica that you might want to check out. Not many pop singers do opera, but Connie Francis did.
I absolutely LOVE the fact that you two are listening to some of the older music because not a whole lot of other reactors are diving back so far. Or they only go back with certain artists. You guys have done so many different artists way back in the day like Connie. Good for you! Connie really had one of the BEST voices back then. She was quite popular and is still alive today. I believe she's Italian and can sing in multiple languages. Sadly she had tragedy happen to her in 1974 which took her out of the spotlight due to the trauma of the incident. Then, she underwent nasal surgery in 1977 which caused her to lose her voice. She gained some of it back but lost most of its strength. Nonetheless, it's always great to hear that amazing voice from these early recordings!
My childhood Idol! She's the best.
Thank you for this ! Connie Francis had one of the purest voices I’ve ever heard. Truly beautiful song too , my favorite CF song . Y’all take care

It’s a season of love😍❤️❤️ for me and so I decided to put a smile on the faces of my fans by going through my KZread channel am checking out on my fans, so I can get to communicate with my fans better through discussion of depth and humor listening to o and criticism of my career.💞💞🙏💖......
I am currently reading a biography of Agnetha Falkskog (the Blonde from ABBA) and it talks about how when she was a teen she had a big collection of Connie Francis records and just used to listen to them over and over and over and how she was one of the biggest influences in her musical career and journey and you can certainly feel that influence in her ABBA vocals. Fabulous, both of them. You just don’t get wonderful music like this anymore!
This song and movie by the same name actually put "Fort Lauderdale Florida" on the map as forever being the Mecca for spring break. Since 1960 when this song came out. Fort Lauderdale was known as a sleepy little town. Today is a bursting metropolis with beautiful Water Canals full of yachts and boats with gorgeous houses and scenery. That was the impact of this song and movie by the same name. "Where The Boys Are." Brilliant!

You must do her version of "Never On Sunday." I know you will love it.
Love you guys!!! Listen to Al Di La it's beautiful!
Take a listen to another soundtrack to another one of Connie's movies, 'Follow The Boys'. This song shows Connie's great high Fidelity voice!
I don’t recall ever hearing of Connie Francis until I saw her on your channel. Now I feel like I need to look into her music. Such a great voice.

It always surprises me when someone says he/she never heard of her as she was just as big as Elvis throughout the world.

you have too look into her 3000 song catalogue and in 15 languages [still a record]. Give these to start off with IT WOULD STILL BE WORTH IT, BORN FREE, THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM,
Shawn and Mel. Your genuine appreciation for these songs is why you have 144k subscribers. I appreciate how you introduce this music to new generations and, maybe, re-introduce it to people like me who grew up with this music. You are my new "guilty pleasure" and just maybe, my new best friends. Doc
She’s my Mom’s all time fav singer 🎤
Great song from 1960! Written by Neil Sedaka. Connie does a disco version of Where The Boys Are on her album, "Who's Happy Now".
Very gifted Italian American artist. One of my dads favorite female artist. She had a hard life. Connie was raped and this affected her until her dying day I love watching you guys. One of my favorite couples in KZread.

Not many sing the beginning of this song well...and that middle held note slide!
When I was a kid I was in love with Connie. My favorite songs were 'Guess My Heart Has A Mind Of It's Own', and 'Everybody's Somebody's Fool'. 💘
She has an amazing voice.
It's like a perfect young woman's fantasy about romance, love, and relationships that resonates across time, all these decades later.
