The Four Seasons & Frankie Vallie
December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)
2005年「四季」合唱團的故事被改編為百老匯音樂劇「澤西少年郎」（Jersey Boys）
音樂劇一開場就是由一位法國饒舌歌手翻唱《December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)》
劇中將這首歌的故事時空提前至1963年出現
描繪他們在那年冬天首度展開全美各地的巡迴演唱
各大唱片公司也紛紛展開挖角的行動為了討好他們甚至發動「美女」攻勢
在聖誕節的時候派遣身材火熱的辣妹投懷送抱
據說該團歌曲主要創作者之一的鮑布高迪歐(Bob Gaudio)還因此享受到了生平的「第一次」
後來更把這個美妙的經驗化為他們的這首經典
事實上這首歌不但在1975年才誕生當初創作的動機也完全不同
跟高迪歐一起負責作曲的是後來成為他妻子的茱蒂帕克(Judy Parker)
當他們譜寫「December 1963 (Oh What a Night)」的時候標題中本來並沒有「1963」的存在
事實上他們原本把「故事情節」的時空背景設定為1933年描述當時美國解除禁酒令的事件
不過茱蒂很不喜歡歌詞法蘭基也沒有表示好感
後來高迪歐和茱蒂花了整整兩天的時間修改茱蒂重寫歌詞
而高迪歐則修改旋律，最後終於變成完全不同的「December 1963 (Oh What a Night)」
歌曲推出之後首先在英國造成轟動成了「四季」在英國唯一的冠軍曲
接著又在1976年三月十三日登上他們闊別整整十二年的美國冠軍寶座蟬聯三個星期

December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)
Oh, what a night
Late December back in sixty-three
What a very special time for me
As I remember what a night
Oh, what a night
You know I didn't even know her name
But I was never gonna be the same
What a lady, what a night
Oh I, I got a funny feelin' when she walked in the room
Yeah my, as I recall it ended much too soon
Oh, what a night
Hypnotizin', mesmerizing me
She was ev'rything I dreamed she'd be
Sweet surrender, what a night.
I felt a rush like a rollin' ball of thunder
Spinnin' my head around 'n' takin' my body under
Oh what a night.
Oh I, I got a funny feelin' when she walked in the room
Yeah my, as I recall it ended much too soon
Oh what a night, why'd it take so long to see the light
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right
What a lady, what a night.
Oh, I felt a rush like a rollin' ball of thunder
Spinnin' my head around 'n' takin' my body under
Oh what a night (do do do do do, do do do do do)
Oh what a night (do do do do do, do do do do do)
Oh what a night (do do do do do, do do do do do)
Oh what a night (do do do do do, do do do do do)
