American Bandstand 1968 – TOP 10 – Love Is Blue, Paul Mauriat & His Orchestra
Airdate: February 17, 1968
Here’s a “pretty song” to cap off a chaotic year just as it began the chaotic year of 1968. Mauriat’s cover of “L’ Amour est bleu” is at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the 2nd of 5 weeks in a row today. The song will go on to be the #2 song of 1968 (“Hey Jude” was #1) and the 12th most popular song of the decade.
While it seems some of the dancers are struggling a bit to dance to it, I think Famous Hooks & Jenny Nichols (1:16) and Don Sanuskar & Maureen Cohen (shown briefly on the right at 1:29) have the right idea partner dancing to the song. Also spotted dancing here are Peggy Waggoner & (her then-boyfriend) Mark Reinglass (0:32), Rick Bach (1:25), Stan Soburn (1:31), Forrest Hutchins (2:01), Sondra Gomez (2:15), Theodosia Dayton (2:42) and Roberta Simon on the top riser.
Love is blue: a toast to all those who didn’t make it to 2022 with us including 60’s artists Michael Nesmith, Billy Hinsche, Keith Allison, Charlie Watts, Jay Black,
