Before Neil Sedaka returned to the top of the charts, he gave Australian audiences something even more personal than another hit. During this unforgettable performance of The Father Of Girls, he stepped away from his familiar image as a pop star to share a warm, humorous story about fatherhood. Instead of romance, he celebrated the real joys and worries of raising daughters, making the crowd laugh from the very first verse. Knowing that Sedaka was a devoted father gives this live moment an extra layer of warmth. But pay close attention to his facial expressions and the shocking musical transition right after this song, it completely changes how you view his artistry.
