Sitting here , alone, my wife and son sleeping. Going thru sixty plus wonderful years of life - I still get the chills when I hear this song. Thanks for the memories.

My wife and I have loved this song, we will play it again later, I miss her so much Until we meet again Rest in Peace 5-12-2020 57years

The best time of our lives...this group made some of the best music for this time.

When I go to heaven I wish I could bring this and others with me.

Respect to Angelo with the Navy Blues on the right ! Back when being in the service meant something !

At 76 this brings back memories of both heartache and joy...💔❣️💞

Dion DiMucci, Carlo Mastrangelo, Freddie Milano, Angelo D'Leao, the Belmonts, the Bronx, Ny, Unforgettable. Always in My Heart!!

What a great time to be alive back then. !

I love to watch the faces of these young girls watching Dion and the Belmonts sing. It's like they're singing to them alone. Very special times.

Dion was so handsome... honestly I’d give anything to see him perform like this

This still remains after all these years the most beautiful version of this timeless song.

Great song great group,Doo Wop,May it never die! 75 year old greaser!!!

Just heard a few bars of this - no words just insteumebtsl- watching Rear Window. Wonderful song

American Bandstand first. December 1959. I will always remember. Thank you Dick Clark for a great show, and many beautiful memories. R.I.P. Dick Clark.

Rest in peace Dick Clark and thank you for all the memories you gave us!

"When Dion’s voice bursts through for a solo moment in the bridge, it captures that moment of shimmering persistence of memory in a way the printed word can only hint at. But so it is with music, it is of a time but also timeless; a thing with which to make memories and the memory itself. Though we seldom consider it, music is built in time as surely as a sculptor or welder works in physical space. Music transcends time by living within it, just as reincarnation allows us to transcend life by living it again and again." - Bob Dylan in "The Philosophy of Modern Song"

so nice...takes me back to high school....and better times.

My favourite version by far

WOW !!! So young ... a magical time for music.

I absolutely LOVE the way the song escalates toward the end before blossoming into goose bump giving harmony.

Angelo really gave this group the boost with his amazing falsetto throughout the whole song.

This may well be my #1 song by this quartet. Never gets old.

My favorite late 50's early 60's group. Great harmony!

These guys were absolutely great and Dion was and is still the coolest guy on the planet. I still get goosebumps when I hear this song and I'm 60

Back in the day when being in the service meant something! Much like today...... Thank you for your service troops!

Beautiful harmonies. Thank you Dion and The Belmonts,

An American Legend, Dick Clark...and a great song by Dion and The Belmonts...now that's harmonizing !

What GREAT music! And to think, this is what I grew up with. A true blessing!

"Where Or When" reached # 3 in early 1960-A certifiable classic.

Just a bunch of Italian kids from the Bronx. I love it.

What a wonderful harmonizing group and four cool guys that could really carry a tune.

If only we could turn back time and relive those wonderful days and years. Where did they go??

Simply incredible song and harmony. I feel so blessed to have been around during this infancy of Rock n Roll.. These songs will go with me to my grave.

Absolutely great song done fabulously be Dion & Belmonts. The harmonies really make this song so memorable.

WHAT A WONDERFUL RENDITION...GRAND HARMONY....NONE BETTER...

Great song.Gives you chills!!

What a great song from a special time. I was in eighth grade. My first girlfriend and first mixed party. We must have played this song 25 times. 58 years later it still brings a huge smile to my face!

These were great days. It’s great to visit those days once again.

I really miss Dick Clark. Not only were his shows great, he was as well. I once found myself in a buffet line with him. No one recognized him. He and I had a bit of fun in terms of small talk. Really nice man.

I was in Gramm's living room watching this at 13 years old. Rushed home from school every day to watch American Bandstand. In grade 7. at John Ross School. We loved it! Dick Clark had the nicest calm voice to listen to. Life seemed better then but as a teen, it was shaky and full of questions and uncertainty but at the same time it was steady and stable.

I love this song! Thank you and God bless!

I loved seeing Freddie in this perf. ! I was 13 y/o, in 8th grade, & FINALLY, a for-real TEENAGER! OMG, did I just know I was cool ! RIP, to all of the Belmonts now passed on. Wolfsky9

I remember Dion & the Belmonts, seeing them in person in Bethlehem PA at Notre Dame bandstand, I got to meet them all. Here in this picture Angelo is in his Navy uniform, he was on the same type Destroyer Escort I was on. OH those were the Good Old Days of Rock an Roll .......

What a beautiful song.

So great to listen to songs I grew up with...and liked !

This song has been covered by hundreds of artists, this version, along with Bryan ferry are amongst the best

I have always felt this was their best song.

love this song and this group

When watching this video it just brings back so many memories. Listening to their music in the sixties and seventies, since their music never got old, just made me feel good. Growing up in East Harlem and than the Bronx and hanging out on Arthur and Belmont Ave was always great, but the best is that is where I met my beautiful wife at one of the Arthur Ave feast. In fact I got married at Mount Carmel Church there and my wife told me her late dad knew Dion and he was a great guy.

We had such beautiful and memorable music growing up. Still know the words to all the songs.

Love this song and this version!!!!

I still get an overwhelming feeling of time passing, seeing this. I so rememeber seeing this on the Saturday night Dick Clark Show ! -------Angelo D. got special permission to do this from the Navy. ---------------------------WolfSky9, 72 y/o

One of my favorite Dion and the Belmonts songs bought the 45 prior to going into the Navy in 1960

I recently bought an album called "The Belmonts, Lost Treasures" on Relic Records. 25 songs, many unreleased done by just the Belmonts without Dion. Some nice songs on there and many are in stereo.

One of the best singers of that time and maybe even today. Deserve the highest recognition 👏.

On this day 1959 and in 1963 {December 28th} two versions of "Where Or When" entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart... In 1959 it was by Dion and the Belmonts; their version peaked at #3 and spent 16 weeks on the Top 100... And in 1963 The Lettermen's version entered the Top 100 for a two week stay, and reached #98... The song was originally performed in the 1937 Broadway musical 'Babes In Arms'... Also in 1937 it was covered by Hal Kemp; his version reached #1 and spent 16 weeks on the charts

Smooth. Just...perfect.

The group, the arrangement and the song all top notch. I have loved this version ever since 1959. Brian Pack

Amazing harmony group

Just seen. Dion a few nights ago on. Jimmy. Fallon. looks great and sounds fantastic !

Beautiful Song 🎵

Loved Dion's East Coast class.

Nicely re-done old song by Dion & The Belmonts. It has a haunting deja vo theme to it.

It's actually rare to see all four members, because Freddy Milano was serving our country back then

The smooth harmony along with the lyrics of this song were compelling and disturbing at the same time, the more I listened to it as a teenager. At that age there was no 'before' (deja vu?) And yet there was this haunting appeal to the song. It was very popular. Later on whenever I 'discovered' something in my mind for the first time, oddly, it felt familiar and comforting. At some point later I developed the road less traveled approach to my life.

Dion is and has always been the coolest guy on the planet

The soaring falsetto of Angelo D'Leao gave my all-time favorite Doo Wop group its wonderful sound.

Who cares what they look like now. We are privileged to see and hear one the greatest harmony vocal groups of all time in their pomp.

I wish I was born in this time to see it live I absolutely love doo wop with a passion

I grew up in Dion and the Belmonts neighborhood. They hung out on the corner on 183Rd St and Belmont Ave just outside my Aunt and Uncles Candy store

Loved AB when it was in Philly! Never missed it. This is a great song and danced to it often at high school functions.

It amazes me to see these young people in the audience loving this ( as I do too); compared with the " devil worshiping " 70's rock that the kids of that time loved. I confess that I was a kid in the 70's and liked some of it. But whenever I heard 50s music I thought " now this is good music".

So in love with these guys then and now.

Doo - Wop has always been my Fav and No one does it better than Dion!!!

Absolutely fantastic, thank you!!

Fantastic!

omg dion,,just look at you-awesome

A classic song sung so well. Thanks fellas.

Very surprised there aren't more views. Very famous song

Man they are all dying off geeeeeez I'm so sad man life was so good then we all just loved those guys man killer song. RIP man.

I listen too more of old music than the music they have out now ❤

Flawless

Some serious talent on display by this amazing group.

In my opinion, Dion and the Belmonts greatest hit. I was a member of the Laura Lamar High School class of 1964. Laura Lamar High School was located in Homer City, PA.

' THE MASTER ' THESE GUYS AND DION ARE THE BEST !

A smooching song to dance to. I was 17 !! Happy days .I loved dancing,still do.

One of the greatest songs that was ever made

Listening to these talented geniuses and the many others that were part of this era, tells me I was in heaven the whole time.
