According to the co-writer and longtime group member Bob Gaudio, the song was originally set in 1933 with the title "December 5th, 1933," and celebrated the repeal of Prohibition. Neither 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, a song about losing your virginity.

Good morning, John and Owen. Loving the 1975 feature this week, as it is the year of my birth. I am sure there are a lot of soon to be 47--year-olds and 47--year-olds enjoying today. Would you consider playing Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons - December, 1963 (Oh What A Night!) today. I can't imagine a more fun song to celebrate my birth year. Thanks so much as always Jenny
