Supercool Music: A Living Article© Part 61: “Pretty Pretty Girl”

“Pretty Pretty Girl” by The Timetones is one of the most beautiful Oldie songs vocally as well as the music of the instruments behind them. 😎 The melody is excellent. 🙂 The range of vocal notes from low and tender to high and melodic is exquisite. 😎 Loving this song so much, I purchased the remastered version when I found it. I appreciate them taking the time to give us the original song restored to its original shining quality. 😎 (Just a note here: “Remastered” is quality and clarity of sound, an entirely different thing from “re-recorded.” I don’t tend to like “re-recorded” versions of songs. I prefer the songs to sound like they were meant to – no messing around with the melodies, music and vocal styles that made the songs popular to begin with!)

   When “Pretty Pretty Girl” starts playing, two minutes and thirty-seven seconds just doesn’t seem long enough. It begins right off with an upbeat, cheerful tune featuring drums and sax amongst other instruments that instantly brings a happy smile to the listener’s face. 🙂 After the intro, one voice joins in on the music with Doo-Wop vocalizations and soon the rest of this five-man group begins to sing in the background, “Pretty Girl.” 🙂

   The first verse begins with another one of the men singing lead, singing about the pretty girl. 🙂 He tells her he loves her so and will never make her cry. And she fills his heart with joy. 🙂 😎

   The melodic high note at 1:06 is so manly beautiful! I like it when male singers hit those high notes while still clearly sounding male, like this guy. 😎 A man’s high note is different from a woman’s high note, naturally. 🙂 😎 This fellow of The Timetones carries this on an amazing wave of melody for an impressive amount of time, taking a very short break before launching into it again and again. Way cool! 🙂 😎

   He sings with much heart, singing his thoughts, telling her he wants to know if she needs him with a lasting love so she will never let him go. His heartfelt plea is sung with power and he gets it across that he truly means what he is saying. True heart. ❤ ❤

   With a great style that puts genuineness into each sentence, keeping it from sounding merely repetitive, he sings out several times, “I want to know!”

   At 2:10 and onward, that soaring-high vocal melody takes wing again and carries on through to the close of the song with the doo-wopping in the background and the musical instruments continuing their great sound. I love the great drumming! 🙂 😎

   “Pretty Pretty Girl” is a solid, truly beautiful love song. 🙂 The Timetones sound great throughout, delivering a musical masterpiece set to love. 😎 ❤ ❤
