Look at what I found on YouTube:

I love this video! Does anybody know if "Shout" was originally by the Ronettes or the Shangri-Las?

I love the 50's and 60's girlgroups (like Shirelles, Marvelettes, Shangri-Las, Ronettes, Chiffons, Vandellas, Supremes, Crystals, Chantels, Bobettes ect.)

I love the sound. It's a mix of Jazz, Soul, R'n'B, Motown and a little Pop. I also really like other proformers from that period (like Mary Wells, Brenda Holloway, Barbara Lewis ect.). My all time favourtie jazz singer is Billie Holiday though, she's a legend!

How do you guys like it?

I don't like her that much, the only good thing is Amy in the backgroung. I prefer the original by the Ronettes. She's OK though.

Yeah, I prefer the original, I hated her version at first but now it's slowly growing on me.

The only good thing about it is that it carries Amy's name
i can't even hear Amy in the song
