Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons The hit song "Oh What A Night" by Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons was originally set in 1933 with the title "December 5th, 1933," and celebrated the repeal of Prohibition, according to the co-writer and longtime group member Bob Gaudio. Lead singer Frankie Valli nor co-writer (and later, Gaudio's wife) Judy Parker were thrilled about the lyrics (and Valli objected to parts of the melody) so Gaudio redid the words and Parker redid the melody until all were content with the finished product. It ended up being a nostalgic love song. The Four Seasons had a series of hits from 1962-1968. In 1975, they returned to the charts with "December 1963 (Oh What a Night)," which hit #3 in the US. "December 1963" was the follow-up to that song (source) Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons: Oh What a Night Here are the lyrics to "Oh What a Night by Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons: Oh, what a night Late December, back in '63 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 feeling when she walked in the room Hey, my As I recall, it ended much too soon Oh, what a night Hypnotizing, mesmerizing me She was everything I dreamed she'd be Sweet surrender, what a night And I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder Spinning my head around and taking my body under Oh, what a night Oh, I Got a funny feeling when she walked in the room Hey, my As I recall, it ended much too soon Oh, what a night Why'd it take so long to see the light?
