Danny & the Juniors - At the Hop



Bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah. bah-bah-bah-bah, at the hop!

Well, you can rock it you can roll it
You can stop and you can stroll it at the hop
When the record starts spinnin'
You *chalypso* when you chicken at the hop
Do the dance sensation that is sweepin' the nation at the hop

Ah, let's go to the hop

Let's go to the hop, (oh baby)
Let's go to the hop, (oh baby)
Let's go to the hop
Come on, let's go to the hop

Well, you can swing it you can groove it
You can really start to move it at the hop
Where the jockey is the smoothest
And the music is the coolest at the hop

All the cats and chicks can get their kicks at the hop
Let's go!

Let's go to the hop
Let's go to the hop, (oh baby)
Let's go to the hop, (oh baby)
Let's go to the hop
Come on, let's go to the hop
Let's go!

Well, you can rock it you can roll it
You can stop and you can stroll it at the hop
When the record starts spinnin'
You *chalypso* when you chicken at the hop
Do the dance sensation that is sweepin' the nation at the hop

You can swing it you can groove it
You can really start to move it at the hop

Where the jockey is the smoothest
And the music is the coolest at the hop.
All the cats and chicks can get their kicks at the hop.
Let's go!

Let's go to the hop
Let's go to the hop, (oh baby)
Let's go to the hop, (oh baby)
Let's go to the hop

Come on, let's go to the hop

Bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah. bah-bah-bah-bah, at the hop! ""

Dion & The Belmonts - A teenager in love

Each time we have a quarrel
It almost breaks my heart
'Cause I'm so afraid that we will have to part

Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love


One day I feel so happy
Next day I feel so sad
I guess I'll learn to take the good with the bad

'Cause each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love

I cried a tear for nobody but you
I'll be a lonely one if you should say we're through

Well if you want to make me cry
That won't be so hard to do
If you should say goodbye
I'd still go on loving you

Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love

I cried a tear for nobody but you
I'll be a lonely one if you should say we're through

Well if you want to make me cry
That won't be so hard to do
And if you should say goodbye
I'll still go on loving you

Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love
Why must I be a teenager in love
Why must I be a teenager in love

Why must I be a teenager in love

For some reason, while watching the Del Vikings, it put me in mind of the greatest slow dance tune of the time.

And I never did get to slow dance with Tuesday Weld, but I still can't stand “The Lion Sleeps Tonight.” 8^)

Evening fatima, Hugs.

I love doo wop ...

Unfortunately I’m as busy as a one armed paper hanger and can’t participate as I would like.

Got to help a GI freshly out of the sandbox today...

My husband like Deserieby the Charts. Most of what is now considered Doo Wop is more recent than what he calls Doo Wop. He considers Doo Wop to be mostly fifties stuff.

I am SUCH a music snob—can’t abide anything after Vivaldi; except Doo Wop and 1960s rock-n-roll which I totally adore. Thank you for such great memories!

Not sure if it is technically DooWop but it came from the same era. “Silence is Golden” by the Tremiloes. Also “Needles and Pins” by “The Searchers”.
