I wasn't born when this song came out ,but I love the romantic feeling of it. Maybe I'm weird but I like that men used to be romantic. Also that they didn't feel guilty for being one

Paul Anka was 19 years old when he sang AND wrote this song. He wrote most of his own songs. A 19 year old had that much depth.

He was my favorite singer back then. I am 75 years old.

Paul Anka was a prolific songwriter and virtually owned Las Vegas. Canadian boy. Had his first #1 hit at 15 years old.

I grew up in the 70s/80s but even then people listened to the 'oldies' except oldies for us was 40s, 50s, & 60s music. That people are still listening to Paul Anka is testament to how timeless this music is. Great reaction as usual & greetings from Toronto.

This was my favorite song when I was about 12. Everything he did was good. Diana was another. He was about 19 or so, during this period. He is still playing in Vegas & such.

I was born 1950. , When I was listening to my mom's music at 5. I loved this song & his picture on the record cover 🥰🥰🥰🥰

What a voice! I’m 42 and grew up listening to my parents oldies station so I’ve heard this so many times as a kid. Now listening.. it’s perfection. 👌🏼 Amazing. We definitely don’t have music like this anymore.

Yessssssss!!!!! I LOVE LOVE 💚💜💙💚💜 THIS SONG 👍👍🌹🦋

The Great composer and vocalist, Mr.Paul Anka.

He has a great recording career of his own, but wrote for many artists. He wrote My Way for Frank Sinatra. This was a time that entertainers dressed for performances. NO autotune

This is one of the greatest love songs ever!

Got to listen to Bobby Rydell and Frankie Avalon also huge in the 50's and still doing concerts today.

Grew up with songs from this era from my dad's vinyls. Still have them... They have a lot of Paul Anka and others. The whole era can be defined as "smooth" - Elvis, Sinatra, Rosemary Clooney, etc. Absolutely love it!

Always loved the oldies. This was a favorite of mine.

Classic...timeless❤❤

Good music! Old one but goodie! My daughter of 18 yrs old loves this song thx for reacting!🎶🎤💜

I was born at the wrong time...I ❤ the Crooners of the 50s and Doo Wop groups and 60s rock. Thank you guys soooo much!

This song actually made r and b top ten.

I grew up in the 50's and 60's. There were some awesome singers.

It’s incredible that this music is forty to fifty years old and it still pulls at Your heartstrings!

Paul A. (a Canadian singer of Lebanese ancestry) sold millions of records internationally, was a teenage " heartthrob" and had many top ten US hits. This insanely romantic song was also one of the reasons unplanned pregnancies from the bygone era peaked in 1959! Try "Lonely Boy", "Diana" and "Puppy Love". You will be captivated!

He wrote most of his hit songs.

17 y/o Paul Anka----------he wrote & arranged this masterpiece.

I love listening to young people listening to this music. I was born in 1969 and love Paul Anka.

back in a time when men and women appreciated each other more i grew up on this music and i still ove it now.

As a 5 year old London child I listened to him, older brothers and sisters, what a joy it is to hear again. Thank you. Jan x

What a great reaction remember back in the day no auto tune. The artist had to have talent and this is live. thank you

Shawn and Mel, you are such a great couple, and I love how you both enjoy the music that I grew up with. That is why I have just subscribed to your great channel.

He's such a good songwriter. You might like Times Of Your Life 🎶🎵

My favorite singer of all time!!

He was also a great song writer and if I'm not mistaken wrote a song or two for Sinatra.

I was born in the early 50's so we heard all the originals. It was a wonderful wonderful time of music. I miss it so much. I still listen to the cd's and have a Playlist. I don't listen to anything after a certain period in time. Now all you need is 3 cords, 3 notes, and little talent. This music brought the races together. We had so much love for people...and it's due to our music and television shows.

This was from The US Music Show American Bandstand that Dick Clark hosted from 1957-1989. Paul is in a Class all by himself. Everything he "Sang" he "Wrote" alot of fellow Teen Idols didn't do that. He also holds the distinction of having Hits in every Single Decade from the 1950's to now. Only The Isley Brothers & Smokey Robinson hold that Distinction. He also wrote songs for other Folks. She's A Lady for Tom Jones and My Way for Frank Sinatra which was the "Last" Song that Elvis Sang before he died in 1977. "My Way" is next to "Yesterday" the most covered song in Music. It recently went to Number One on The Adult Contemporary Chart with Olivia Newton-John. He also sang backup on Stevie Wonder's Fullfillingness First Finale in the 1970's.

I'm 71 and LOVE all these songs, I heard these when they fist came out.

You 2 are the BEST REACTION COUPLE. It is a pleasure to watch your passion for music and comedy.

Again, I loved Paul Anka’s songs on this Album from the late 50’s. His voice was so unique, every song on this particular album is great! 💙💖💕💕👍

You guys make my day. I love the joy you bring to music I listened to as a teenager - great job - thank you

Back in the day this was some serious slow dance music.

More "feel good" music of the era!!

Oh my teenage heart throb...listened to all of Paul's hits. I seen him in Vegas at a lounge show in 1969 with the Temptations. Boy, they put on show I'll never forget it.

Some of the best music. Keep doing oldies.

Another wonderful 🇨🇦🥰 Canadian heart throb. He was SO popular and the girls swooned when they saw him 😊 Paul has so many big hits & has been a big draw in Vegas for years, he has written so many songs that became hits for him or other singers💕💟 🎉🎉 If you want to see the reaction Paul had on the female fans YOU HAVE to watch Paul Anka Live in NYC 1960!! Girls were crying, screaming, fainting & being held back by NYC’s Finest so they wouldn’t storm the stage ! It’s pandemonium 🥰🥹😩🫠🫢😘🎉💫

He wrote My Way for Frank Sinatra.

🔊 "Having my Baby" was my favorite. A big hit Nobody's reacted to. Reminds me of my newly wed wife telling me she's carrying our first, our daughter. Beautiful song 🎵

That smile, & his interaction with the women on the front row - every female in the place just melted.

Oh the memories. Love your reaction ♥. Thx for sharing ♥

The song is timeless and you're hooked from the first verse. Great song written by a teenager, legend.

You are both full of kindness. You are two treasures together. Kisses from Belgium

Paul Anka wrote a lot of great songs.

He also wrote My Way - and Frank Sinatra sang it - I highly recommend it if you haven't don so yet:).

I remember sweet, sweet boys and slow dances to this song at sock hops also known as dances.

It's funny that KZfaq suggested this video today. I used to babysit my nephew when he was a baby and he missed his mom so he would cry. But when I sang that song to him he would calm down. I lost my nephew last month. He was 45. Sorry to post such a downer comment. I've seen some of your other reactions and really enjoy them. 😸 Rest in Paradise Keyon Eddins 12/30/77 - 3/12/23

Spring of '59, I was 12 y/o, in 7th grade. This was THE slow-dance song of my generation.

NOTE: Paul Anka wrote the theme song for "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson" in 1962. The song has been estimated to have been played around 1.4 million times. With this one song, Anka earned between eight and nine hundred thousand dollars. Thirty years of royalties.

Paul Anka was about it all these songs we're number one's

Back from a simpler time, when we danced, we actually touched each other, and when the lady felt close, she actually laid her head on the guys shoulder. There were ugly things going on for sure, but mainly we were happier. Two years after listening to this song at the local dances, I would be in a rice paddy fearing for my life, and wishing to hell I was back at the local sock hop. Thanks for the flashback.

I was so lucky to have grown up in the 50's & 60's ! The music was THE very best. ----MJL, 75 y/o

LOVE YOU GUYS AND YOUR ENTHUSIASM, FOR ALL TYPES OF MUSIC. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO

Anka was the Dustin Hoffman of pop singers in the late 50s and early 60s. He got a lot of residuals from composing the Tonight Show theme. I have his bio "My Way." It's rather interesting he gives glimpses into the lives of many entertainers such as Dean, Frank, Elvis, Tom Jones, Sammy Davis Jr. and more.

This song was written by Paul Anka for Annette Funicello when they were dating. Check out a pretty prolific singer-songwriter from the '50 through the '70s Neil Sadaka. He had a number of hits and wrote hits for a number of other performers.

Its so beautiful i wait for more reactions please, ✨

Need to hear Venus by Frankie Avalon and Neil Sedaka breaking up is hard to do

Mom said 50s had class and respect❤

I love your reactions. You both are so cute and compliment each other so well.

Paul Anka was one of the earlier big names to come out of Canada. He still performs a fair bit these days.

1962 --> Skeeter Davis - The end of the world . 😎👍✨

Another oldie but definitely a goodie!!!

Great reaction! Paul Anka wrote and performed a lot of songs and is still out there doing his thing. My favorite and I hope you'll react to it: ☆Paul Anka☆ - You are my destiny (2:47). I think you'd love it.

I love this song my mom loved it 🥰

The 50s were the best years they had the best music the best dance the best cars the best tasting food

Paul Anka was 17 y/o when he wrote & recorded this Masterpiece. Spring of 1959.

Us Oldies grew up in an era of Romance & Visions of what Real love should feel & be like-I don’t know How any good is coming from Rap!!!

Now give a listen to Austin Brown, of Home Free, his version of this classic! He has his own channel with lots of covers, including “At Last” by Etta James & sung in the same key as Etta, and original songs. He’s fabulous! Also, check out Home Free’s version of “Crazy” by Patsy Cline with Austin singing it in her key! Please react to both! Thanks!

Shawn and Mel: Don't know exactly how to describe your social appeal to myself, but when I first heard you guys react to various songs; I was hooked on your channel. Keep up the good vibes!!!!!

Now that's a real slow dance song💃💃👫

Songs like this were made for dancing to! ❤️

I was a kid of the 50s. Drive in theaters and backseats with this kind of music playing. Wish I could go back

If yall loved this yall would LOVE Puppy Love by him as well>

Genius singer/songwriter

I think he was 17 when he wrote and sung this, and he also wrote " My Way" for Frank Sinatra,

you should listen to all of a sudden my heart sings. this my wife's favorite song to dance too.

Yesssssszzz

Don't care how many times you hear this song that "baby" will get you every time. Good grief!!!

These video music review channels are great! It's like having good company right next to you in your living room, but without the germs! ..... (lol)

Paul also wrote a song recorded by Tom Jones... "She's a Lady"

Please check out Paul Anka's "Having My Baby". I think you both will really enjoy it.
