Can't Take My Eyes Off You is a 1967 song writt by Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio. It was recorded as a single by Frankie Valli. The song was among his biggest hits, earning a gold record and reaching No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 for a week.
Gaudio was a bandmate of Valli's in the Four Seasons. It was Valli's biggest solo hit until he hit No. 1 in 1975 with My Eyes Adored You.
Gaudio, an original member of the Four Seasons, refers to Eyes as the one that almost got away until Windsor, Ontario, radio station CKLW (a station also serving the Detroit metro on the American side of the border) interved. In 1967, the record's producers urged Paul Drew, program director at the legdary station, to consider the tune for rotation. For much of the 1960s and 1970s, CKLW was credited with launching hit records via its powerful signal, blanketing the Great Lakes region. Drew did not warm to the song at first, but accepted an invitation to hear it live at the Roostertail, where Valli was performing a weeklong stint with the Four Seasons. Drew liked what he heard and added the song to his station's playlist. The switchboards lit up, and the rest, as they say, is history, Gaudio recalls.
