Jay was a trained opera singer.His mom had him take lessons. But he wanted to be a popular singer. So you have nice mix of both in his performances.

To be fair Jay Black is probably the most underrated singer of all time there is a reason this song is not copied at all very very little because it is almost impossible for people to hit these notes and sound that effortless and that Flawless this is truly One of a Kind singing and a master class and a tenor voice

@billysmith8784 4 ай бұрын

Many people say that Jay is singing falsetto He is not singing Paul said oh, he is merely shifting from chest voice into head voice The highest note in this song is a C5 which is way up in the tenor range He can do the lighter configurations others just couldn't do this

There were quite a few really good singers in the '60's & early '70's. Another group (one of my favorites) from that era that I would like to see you do is Peter, Paul & Mary.

Good job Maggie. What I love about this video (beside everything) is at about 5:24 the backup sing on the far left is visibly blown away by the note that Jay hits. This is a good review especially considering it is from a trained professional. You can't listen to this and not get "the feels". This is a rare moment in all of top-40 music.

I saw the current line-up of Jay & the Americans last week in Daytona Beach, one of the groups on the Happy Together Tour. Cowsills, Vogues, Association - all those groups can still sing !

@anthonysava1769 Ай бұрын

Great video. Belive it or not there is a video of Jay singing this in 2011 at age 72 and it might be even better. I have been working on this song but have a hard time with the head notes, especially the hold out on " time'. That c5 can be tricky. Crying by Jay and the Americans and Come a little bit closer are some other great ones! Jay is definitely one of the greatest and most under-rated singers off all time. He wasn't " the voice" for nothing!

@laurengaudette7497 4 ай бұрын

I like Jay and the Americans but my favorite song from them is their cover of "Some Enchanted Evening" from "South Pacific"!

@carlswenson5538 4 ай бұрын

During this era, there was this 'competition' between Jay Black and Frankie Valli. Both had huge followings. They were totally different types of singers, but they both 'played up the rivalry' for sales. Jay was by far the smoother, more polished singer.

@billysmith8784 4 ай бұрын

Several people have mentioned you should see his performance at age 73. Just go to KZfaq Jay Black caramel 2001 he done a performance and it was so good that PBS brought him back in 2011 and he recorded in their studio ever song he did. At 73 he holds a note for 40 seconds at the beginning of the song. He was known as simply"The Voice"Barbie music industry and his peers. I think he was the best lead male vocalist of the entire rock and roll ERA.

@lesparker6752 4 ай бұрын

Maggie, there was a PBS music special back around 2010/2011 that showcased a lot of the old singers/groups from the 60's. Jay Black sang Cara Mia on that show and was absolutely amazing. You should watch it as a comparison to the original version. I think you will be impressed.

In this performance on Shidig, he was singing live, but this video has the studio version over his live vocals. You should listen to this performance live.

They do that a lot to the old teen shows on the internet or youtube, as if we should all be ashamed of live TV then and how it was...I say BS to that. You don't learn anything about the history of live TV or how great these artists really were live.

@jackknudson-rk1uv 4 ай бұрын

The best story about this is Mick Jagger on Ed Sullivan. They sang Let's spend the night together, he sang it live. They wanted him to say Let's spend some time together. When he sang it the camera was focused on his face and turned to it and sang it right. They immediately changed the picture and The Stones were pereonna non grata on tv for a long time.

@chetstevensq 4 ай бұрын

Video of Jay performing this song at the age of 76 on KZfaq. There is a reason he is known as THE Voice. He tells a great story about Franki Valli asking him how he was going to sing that note at age 40...

@scottski51 4 ай бұрын

Yeah, Jay and Friends sang a nice song... but the Hit is This video is the 60s fashions and clothes!! The geometric patterned short dresses on the dancers! The "Nice Guy" look of the Americans with their slacks, v-neck sweaters and (probably) turtleneck "dickies" which just went on like a little saddle with your head in the middle!! Loved it... oh, and the reaction of course!!!

one of the founding members of Jay and the Americans is Kenny Vance at 80 he's still recording and performing . He has a group called Kenny Vance and the Planotones, their biggest hit is "Looking for an Echo"

"Searching for an echo" is one of my favorite songs. But I think Ol 55 did it better.

🎉 Just a suggestion: If you like this era of music with a little falsetto, try on some Bobby Vinton, “Mr. Lonely” (1964) and “Blue Velvet” (1963).
