Helen shapiro dream queen of the sixties

I have just realised that when this was aired in 1989 it was 28 years since Helen became a star. And now another 28 years has passed in the blink of an eye. It does bring home how short life is. Helen is 70 now. Karen Keating was a beautiful looking girl,what a shame she was taken so young.

Wow ! she looks even better in 89 than she did in the 60's.

She aged gracefully. THE voice is still the same. She was awesome and still is.

Saw Helen Shapiro at Prestatyn Wales on holiday the show was full of groups of the day me an future husband went to show we wasn't much older than Helen .it was a very good rock and roll night ❤

Remember seeing this aged 13. The memory of Ms Shapiro's legs has stayed with me ever since.

In this live cut, you can tell the voice is still absolutely on the money. She didn't need autotuning or overproduction unlike most of today's artists. (I think the original was double-tracked though). And Helen's a charmer--so natural on stage! The styles of the 1980s weren't kind to most, and she even jokes about her outfit around 5:05.

Lovely lovely lovely that’s all I can say .Missed all these oldies. Bring back sweet memories. Sadly can’t turn back times.

Totally surreal, she deserved a Blue Peter Badge for this!

Still beautiful and a voice to match. 1989 she was still great, 2018, still waiting for more music Helen.

Helen is a true gem. I just received her ultimate CD collection from the UK of about 90 songs. The irony of this clip is that these 80s kids are being nostalgic about the 60s and now we can be nostalgic about the 80s.

En esos tiempos yo estava chico no.teniamos ni para compral un disco ahora gracia ha youtube veos todas estas lindas estrellas de 60 gracias

She was great, bring back the 60's.

what a fantastic person... and singer

What a voice, you can tell she's having fun. Lets see if any of todays so-called superstars are still around in 40 years.

I love this song, Helen Shapiro is great singer with wonderful voice

Top singer, and the most talented of all 60's female solo artists, imo.

Walking back to happiness with Jesus Christ. Praise God oh yeah yeah.

So pleasantly lively .vivacious and just everrything good about what goes on the stage...THANKS....I still have Helen's 45rpm including the numbers she sings here. I am 64 !

Helen still sings beautiful music but now she shares the good news of the gospel and Jesus .. Music that really means something God Bless you Helen

robertoelvis wonderful helen voice greatest female british performer in 60'!!!

I met Helen 7th May 2022, at a HEBRON concert. I'd have loved to get video footage and photos, but I had to respect the churches no photography policy. As a 23 year old fan she was so eager to meet me and learn how I discovered her music, we sat and talked one to one discussing mutual musical interests, Jazz, etc. I mentioned Empty House being one of my favourites, it was a wonderful evening. To this day she still has the strong voice and wonderful sense of humour.

Beaut gal ! Super voice, super legz :P

Warning, geezer mumblings ahead. In 1961 when I was 14 I was already bicycling a bit on my Raleigh Dawes Diploma (my Dad talked me into, durable & sturdy, instead of the Lenton Grand Prix drop bars racer) and went Acton to Slough on the A4 to visit Uncle Ginger & cousins for a ride. Stopped on the ride home at a cafe for thick slices of buttered toast & mugs of tea for a Bob. Jukebox had Del Shannon Runaway & Helen Shapiro. I clearly remember Del Shannon Runaway but Helen Shapiro's has slipped my mind over 62 years, whatever song she had in 1961 is what it was.

la voix n'a jamais changé....toujours aussi chaude

Klasse Stimme, wunderschöne Lady!

She is soooo good

There were so many 60s songs that were popular in the 80s. "Silence is golden", was another song that was popular in the 60s and the 80s

What a great voice.

Never heard of her until now …

In a certain, almost imperceptible way, I think a lot of us look (or looked) better at 40 than we did at 20. !!! ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

Helen always great, great voice and legs!!

Eddie Parker boy o boy I remember this back in my teen years out joy rideing with my girl such a upbeat song her voice is so unique sweet wow 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🌹😍💐❤️💕🇺🇸

Super,super Lied, Unvergessen***💥💋💥

❤❤😂😂Danke. Fürs Senden 😂😂😂😂❤❤Danke

Her voice was still a killer.......and the legs also!

Helen! Still the greatest!

Fun fact: When my (Spanish) mother was in London studying English and working, they stopped her on the street to ask for autographs and take pictures with her because they confused her with Helen Shapiro. They were also of a similar age. When young, she was so much like her that they looked like 100% twin sisters! In fact my mother has a portrait from those same years that is almost identical to the cover of several of Helen's albums. Also my mother had the same hairstyle (because it was a fashion at that time) and she had a very similar jacket, so the confusion was total! Really, they were like two drops of water! 😂

On this day in 1962 {Oct. 28th} Helen Shapiro performed "I Don't Care" on the CBS-TV program 'The Ed Sullivan Show' It did not make the charts in the USA; her only hit in America was "Walkin' Back To Happiness" in 1961, it stayed on the Top 100 for 1 week at position #100 In her native England she had 11 charted records between 1961 and 1967, with two reaching #1 {"You Don't Know" & "Walkin' Back To Happiness" in 1961} Ms. Shapiro celebrated her 67th birthday exactly one month ago on Sept. 28th

I've just seen '60s clips of Helen up till now. And here, she has a completely '80s appearance, just as she first had a really typical '60s look, especially with her eye makeup and bouffant hair then.

She looks and talks like Cliff Richard. Lovely lady.

who'd have thought back then that john leslie would do what he did :(

what beautiful legs Helen Shapiro has ... she is a beautiful woman.

Lovely Karen. Died too young. ;-(

The late, great Amy Winehouse channelled Helen Shapiro.

I remember seeing this and my mum walking in and saying "OH Helen you're a bit old to be sqeezing into that mini".LOL

Great band!

היא מתבגרת נהדר ויש לה קול שהוא הרבה יותר גדול מהשירים שלה.

Super performance from Helen but she deserves better accompaniment which is pretty dire.

I wouldn't allow the blue peter dog near him !!!!

Aaaaww poor Karen Keating :(((( Helen looks amazing ....."oish....you vant a song already? I ken do you a nice little song for 50 scmutters ma boy"

she was singing in a church in llandovery a couple of nights ago doing a gospel outreach. is it the same helen?

Still a great looking woman. I bet John Lesley was all over it 😳😳

"it seemed the 60's might be coming back into fashion...". Did it ever go out of fashion?

Nice song not shame the legs

She always looked 10 years older than she actually was. She was only 43 here.

Woopah?

@scarypowers No, she is English.

Was that dog safe with him ?

In 1962 i didn't rate this girl at all. What AN IDIOT i was, probably still am. Sorry Helen, i AM ashamed. You're great , and ALWAYS have been .

She was just 14 - ?!?!?

Wow,she was like the Amy Crackhouse of her day!
