3. MAde my day as much as calling Pelosi and demanding the impeach thing

I'd have never thought that Bobby, the heart throb of all the teen girls before the Beatles and Stones took over music, was such a soul man.

4. Thanks for the blast from the past

Darin is one of the most underestimated talents of all time. He was always dismissed in the press as a lightweight with a fondness for beach bunnies.

He wasn't.

5. rode in elevator with Bobby Darin

Fremont Hotel in Las Vegas going to a rehearsal with my Dad. Nice man - even in an elevator he made that impression.

thanks for this. Made me cry.

6. Thanks for posting this!

I've had that tunme for years on MP3, but first time I've seen the video version. One of the truly great anti-war tunes of that time. I really liked this guy....he was a transitional kind of figure, not quite in the Frank Sinatra generation, not quite in the Jefferson Airplane generation. He wrote some great tunes.....we sure could use some Bobby Darins articulating the message today.
