I feel like I've been in church! She delivered an absolutely righteous performance of a terrific classic.

love how much more powerful her voice and demeanor were here compared to her 1964 live performance. she wasn't afraid to take up space, she didn't say "please" at "when i go out with you." she wasn't asking, she was DEMANDING. now in her 40s, she proudly asserted that she was still young and free and unburdened by men's expectations of how women should behave, a wonderful message considering how society thinks women should have "settled down" and moved on from their "rebellious phase" already by that age. because she was a lesbian, this song wasn't just the complaints of a girlfriend for her oppressive boyfriend, but an anthem for women overall againt sexism and societal expectations. what an incredible lady and a pop classic 💕

It didn't make them everything they were as opposed to today's generation when that's all they have.

Those beautiful blue eyes were mesmerizing! RIP Lesley🕊️🥰

As a teen, I grew up buying Lesley Gore 45's, (no such thing as u-tube or CD's). I wasn't aware of a gay person. When I first heard Lesley Gore's songs I had to have all of them. To this day I sing along whenever I hear her songs being played. What a voice! She left our world far too soon. She is one of those angels singing now.

I've never done this before: revisit this video to reiterate what I said the first time. So I watched this again, paying careful attention to her phrasing and keys throughout. And come to the same conclusion, that this version really pales in many creative and musical ways compared to her original version. I realize she is much older and perhaps trying to perform it in a new or updated way. But, seriously, nothing about it even comes close to the power of the original. I find this version rather annoying and quite "stagey". Like she's in a musical instead of performing a brilliantly written hit song.

Listening to her singing it in 1964 live and then watching this, I get chills every single time.
