No video for this song has surfaced yet, so being one of my favorite songs ever, I did it as a tribute. I use footage previously uploaded to you tube in which Gene is singing "dance in the street". The clapping is so similar that I couldn't resist to make this video!

I'm just 13 years old and I love this music. It holds a special place in my heart and one of my biggest wishes would be to live, even for a day in that era. It's sad when your idols are all dead. When you crack a smile when you listen to dead people sing. One day I hope the world at large holds a mirror to itself and realizes how far we have departed from good old values like those in the 50s. For all those who listen to this music and are around my age you have my utmost respect for helping to carry on the most amazing time in American History (I'm from Canada so us too).

@@murphy1951 Gene wasn't underrated by his fans, but the powers that ran the music industry. Dick Clark played Be Boppa Lula but nothing else. Alan Freed rarely played any of Gene's records. The same with other DJs. Gene had a unique voice and performed live on a lot of shows with Eddie Cochran , Buddy and even Elvis on the Louisiana Hayride. He was never on Bandstand. He never was on Sullivan..No Gene had a certain type of talent that was ignored in his lifetime. Only in the tour with Eddie Cochran did the English fans take to Eddie. The US had forgotten about him. Gene died trying to make a comeback and only now in the U Tube age can we appreciate his talent. Underrated ? Yes he was at the time but I have every record I could find. Your definition of underrated is different from mine. I'm 77 and I saw him in The Girl Can't Help It with Eddie Cochran in 1956. I listened for songs the radio never played. Be Boppa Lula was the only one played at all. Dick Clark hated Gene for some reason. And Gene kept recording but got little airplay. Gene's last song was recorded in England. It's called Temptation Baby. Look it up on U Tube. You guys are new to the oldies. I was there when they came out.
