Venus
Frankie Avalon Lyrics
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Hey, Venus, oh, Venus
Venus, if you will
Please send a little girl for me to thrill
A girl who wants my kisses and my arms
A girl with all the charms of you
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Venus, make her fair
A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair
And take the brightest stars up in the skies
And place them in her eyes for me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Surely the things I ask
Can't be too great a task
Venus, if you do
I promise that I always will be true
I'll give her all the love I have to give
As long as we both shall live
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Surely the things I ask
Can't be too great a task
Venus, if you do
I promise that I always will be true
I'll give her all the love I have to give
As long as we both shall live
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Hey, Venus, oh, Venus
Make my wish come true
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ah)

Oh Venus
oh Venus....
Venus si quieres
por favor envíame una chica que me encante
Una chica que quiera mis besos y mis brazos
Una chica con todos los encantos tuyos.
Venus hazla justa,
Una chica encantadora con brillo de sol en su pelo
y toma las estrellas más brillantes del cielo
y colócalas en sus ojos para mí..
Venus, como diosa del amor que eres
Sin duda las cosas que te pido
No pueden ser un gran trabajo para ti.
Venus, si lo haces
prometo que siempre seré fiel
le daré todo el amor que tengo para dar
mientras vivamos los dos.
Venus, como diosa del amor que eres
Sin duda las cosas que te pido
No pueden ser una gran trabajo para ti.
Venus, si lo haces
prometo que siempre seré fiel
le daré todo el amor que tengo para dar
mientras vivamos los dos.
Hola Venus..... Oh Venus!!!!
haz mis deseos realidad...

I was 11 when this came out in 1959. And we all loved Frankie Avalon. Hearing this song today (I am 73!), reminds me of that sweet, long ago time....

I was 3, in 1959, but can recollect hear this.

@Fernando Maron I was born in 1966, a bit too late I would have gone to a Beatles concert.
Stefan Hansen
I love his duet s with Anette Funicello. But this is amazing too

The echo sound as he says "Venus, Oh Venus", just a sweet song, and the background vocals along with the music, such a wonderful song.
Fernando Maron
Yes, it sounds ethereal
