Frankie Avalon - Venus download song

Is it me or does there seem to be more love themed songs in 50's, 60's, and 70's?

"Hey Venus - Oh, Venus" - the melodic line and chord progression with beautiful vocal accompaniment lends a feeling of spiritual ascension-most inspiring.....

THE MOST PRECIOUS ARRAGMENT AND VOICE I HAD EVER HEARD....TAKES ME BACK IN TIME, AND TEARS JUST  COME RUNNING DOWN,  SUCH NOSTALGIC TIME WITH FAMILY, FRIENDS AND PLACES..........GOOSEBUMPS OF COURSE CAN'T DENY IT.......KEEP COMING BACK FROM TIME TO TIME TO THIS AMAZING SONG ....FEB 2020 WHO  IS LISTENING ?

Someone ought to do a documentary about the background vocalists who were behind this and many songs in those days...They deserve notoriety for their beautiful heavenly blend of tight harmony. We never knew their names or saw shots in the studio of these pros. This recording would have been very different without arrangements like this.. Hat's off to the back up musicians and singers !! Real humans, not the synthesized, cheap, digital C R A P of today's forgettable noise !!

Listening to this in 2019 and this is still timeless

“I’ll give her all the love I have to give, as long as we both shall live.” That gives me chills looking back to the end of that episode (dexter)

I'm tired of the burnt-out phrase "I'm _ and I love this music. I was born in the wrong generation". You were born with every modern convenience imagined; take it for granted.

my daughter is 5 and she loves this song as her name is venus too. lol

Sure do miss the old songs. I can actually understand what they're saying.

One of those unforgettable songs which describe very well how dreamy we are when we are young or at least how we were. We felt like if we were flying in that first love until something happened the ballon burst and we fell on earth again. But it is very nice to remember those days and the illussions and dreams we had.

This song puts me in amazement everytime I listen to it. How wonderful life was in the past. I would love to go back in time if I could.

those backing vocals - heavenly

Hey Venus Oh Venus Venus if you will Please send a little girl for me to thrill A girl who wants my kisses and my arms A girl with all the charms of you Venus make her fair A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair And take the brightest stars up in the skies And place them in her eyes for me Venus goddess of love that you are Surely the things I ask Can't be to great a task Venus if you do I promise that I always will be true I'll give her all the love I have to give As long as we both shall live Venus goddess of love that you are Surely the things that I ask Can't be to great a task Venus if you do I promise that I always will be true I'll give her all the love I have to give As long as we both shall live Hey Venus Oh Venus Make my wish come true

The background vocals and instrumentals sound like heaven! Unmatchable!

Born in 1950, I still get amazed by just how perfect this song is. Crystal clear music; I can smell & feel that time... innocence, awe, joy of being alive...

This song is out of this world in a GOOD way

What I really like of these old songs is the innocence in them.  There is no mention of sex, no bad words, and just the pure feelings of the teenagers most of my generation used to be then.  We respected girls then and did not try to get advantage of them.  And girls were charming and knew when it was the time to stop kissing before everything went out of control.  Nice times we lived through.
