60 years ago, but still a strong song!!

Wow, does this ever bring back memories. In May of 1964, I was nearing the end of 8th grade. I probably watched the original showing of this on Ed Sullivan since I watched it every Sunday evening with my parents. The 1960s - I think those were the best years of my life.

one of the lesser groups from across the pond...yet compared to what the music is like today it still

[rondoe]

Wonderful melody. Had to play it again.

[JonBoudreaux]

This is one of the most beautiful pop songs of all time and easily the best track from Gerry & The Pacemakers.

Thanks for the video it appears the Gerry actually was singing on the stage. Interesting set, it looks like someone was afraid the girls would storm the stage…😂..with that fence in front of them.
I can hear “Grandma was that you screaming at them?…😂!
Have a great day!

Authentic wholesome vocals. Great performance! Doesn't happen much these days.

Gerry Marsden was just 1 of the Greatest singers ever. Such heart felt songs. I love the British Invasion music of the 60s & I wasn't born til 1970.

[bbbart]

Ferry cross the mersey was another great track!

[EarlHutton]

RIP Freddie Marsden (1940-2006), Les Chadwick (1943-2019), Gerry Marsden (1942-2021), and Les Maguire (1941-2023)!

Gone, but not forgotten.

A timeless song. Has always been one of my favorites. The memories this brings back are bitter sweet. Also it is very rare to see a live performance back in the day when this aired. Thanks for the upload. 🤠🧑‍🦰🌲🌲 🎼

This one, and You’ll Never Walk Alone - fantastic!

One of the greatest songs ever! I understand they were second to the Beatles in Liverpool. Loved them on this side of the pond too!
