Connie Francis - Everybody's Somebody's Fool
Connie Francis is the prototype for the female pop singer of today. At the height of her chart popularity in the late '50s and early '60s, Connie Francis was unique as a female recording artist, amassing record sales equal to and surpassing those of many of her post-rock era male contemporaries. Ultimately, she branched into other styles of music -- big band, country, ethnic, and more. She still challenges Madonna as the biggest-selling female recording artist of all time. Like Madonna, Concetta Rosemarie Franconero comes from an Italian American background. Francis started her music career at three, playing an accordion bought for her by her contractor father George. Her father's dream was not for his daughter to become a star, but for Francis to become independent of men as an adult with her own accordion school of music. At age ten, she was accepted on Startime, a New York City television show that featured talented child singers and performers. The show had no one else who played an accordion. Its host, legendary TV talent scout Arthur Godfrey, had difficulty pronouncing her name and suggested something "easy and Irish," which turned into Francis. After three weeks on Startime , the show's producer and Francis' would-be manager advised her to dump the accordion and concentrate on singing. Francis performed weekly on Startime for four years. After being turned down by almost every record label she approached, 16-year-old Francis signed a record contract with MGM, only <b>...</b>

CONNIE FRANCIS: "THE SHADOW OF YOUR SMILE" (1966)
This is one of my top five favorites by Connie Francis - released in 1966 when her voice was in absolutely top form: supple, nuanced, powerful, rich. For me, there is no better example of her ability to captivate a listener with her sheer talent and emotive delivery. I think it is a stunning performance. The Academy Award-winning song is from the 1965 film, "The Sandpiper," which starred Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. (I created this video using photos and music from my personal collection.)

Between 1958 and 1964, Connie recorded 35 Top 40 hits, more than any female recording artist in the history of popular music during a 7 year period. Her last #1 came in February of 1962 with "Don't Break The Heart That Loves You".
Connie Francis sings Jealous Heart
I loved the Mary Ford singing this song back in the 50s. But I also love this version by Connie. No small C/W band backing her here. Connie's powerful voice is backed by a full scale studio orchestra. It is one of my favorite Connie songs. Released around 1965 I think. Matt Roberts Ps. This is my first post. I hope compression doesn't squash the sound too much.

Oh My Darling Clementine
Oh My Darling Clementine By Connie Francis and Jonny Hills Oh My Darling, Clementine is an American western folk ballad usually credited to Percy Montrose (1884), even though it's sometimes referred to Barker Bradford. The song is believed to have been based on another song called Down by the River Liv'd a Maiden by HS Thompson (1863). The words are those of a bereaved lover singing about his darling, the daughter of a miner in the 1849 California Gold Rush. He loses her in a drowning accident, though he consoles himself towards the end of the song with Clementine's "little sister". The verse about the little sister was often left out of folk song books intended for children, presumably because it seemed morally questionable. Gerald Brenan attributes the melody to originally being an old Spanish ballad in his book South from Granada. It was made popular by Mexican miners during the Gold Rush. It was also given various English texts. No particular source is cited to verify that the song he used to hear in the 1920s in a remote Spanish village was not an old text with new music, but Brenan states in his preface that all facts mentioned in the book have been checked reasonably well. Forty-niners The first people to rush to the gold fields, beginning in the spring of 1848, were the residents of California themselves—primarily agriculturally oriented Americans and Europeans living in Northern California, along with Native Americans and some Californios (Spanish-speaking <b>...</b>

She attended Newark Arts High School in 1951 and 1952 there .[1][2] After an appearance on Ford Startime, Francis was advised to change her name from Franconero to something more easily pronounceable — and to quit the accordion that was part of her act. Francis' first single, "Freddy", (1955) met with little success. Her next nine singles were also failures. During this time she was introduced to Bobby Darin, who was then an up-and-coming singer/songwriter. Darin's manager arranged for him to help write several songs for Connie. Initially the two could not agree on the selection of material, but after several weeks Bobby and Connie developed a romantic interest in one another. Unfortunately Connie had a very strict Italian father who would separate the couple <b>...</b>

CONNIE FRANCIS: "LIPSTICK ON YOUR COLLAR" '59 (The Saturday Night Beechnut Show)
This great rocker, recorded in May 1959, rose to the #5 spot on the Billboard Top 40 chart. It was the flipside of "Frankie," another huge million-selling hit for Connie. This was a double-sided hit - the first for a female recording artist of the rock-and-roll era. I worked with old video but laid down an audio track using the CD version of the song. I had to do a little bit of creative editing to synchronize everything, but it was fun! Enjoy!
