Bobby was a great entertainer. I took my wife to hear him sing Tossin' and Turnin' 10 years ago. We were both taken aback at how energetic he was. He put his heart and soul into giving a great performance, which he did. He deserves to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

We just learned that Bobby Lewis has passed away and we send our condolences to the family.
Tossin and Turnin was huge, and I fondly remember singing it when it was first released, and I still sing it. It has a catchy, upbeat tune and beat, and is easy to remember. In the 1960s, it was a huge hit song, and Im sure that songs legacy will endure. Someone said Tossin and Turnin is any insomniac's personal anthem and even today in 2020, I sometimes hear someone bellow I couldnt sleep...
