The Crescendos did not last long. The got together in 1957, and by 1959 they were history. That was enough time to put one song on the top 10. I found that one song on the single.
The Crescendos:
• Oh Julie – There is a faraway feel to this, this song of unrequited love, ethereal female vocals in the background. Like Paul Anka’s Diana, Julie is older than the narrator. A teenage dream, he says, that can’t come true. Yes, indeed. One Julie I knew was a social worker whose brain was
missing, one Julie I knew was a well-meaning but inexperienced therapist. And one Julie I knew had green eyes, short dark hair, a beautiful smile, her heart on her sleeve, and walls around her 3 feet thick. This song was a hit in the winter of 1958.
