    Back when music was still music. Sigh.

    Reminds me of the good times as a child growing up. A simpler time, unlike now with this virus that infests our society. 3/31/2020

      God, don't you know it! I wish we could, too. But like one person wrote, I wish I realized then what I know now, that this is a really lovely song! (I'm afraid I fell too much under the influence of flashier rock stars.😂)

    This was one of the easiest listening songs I'd ever heard. I remember driving in a very heavy fog one late evening on a back country New England road going to Boston the first time I'd heard it. It burned in my brain and each time I hear it, I think of that trip.

    "Flyin' me back to Memphis
    Gotta find my Daisy Jane
    Well the summer's gone
    And I hope she's feelin' the same
    Well I left her just to roam the city
    Thinkin' it would ease the pain
    I'm a crazy man and I'm playin' my crazy game, game
    Does she really love me I think she does
    Like the star above me, I know
    Because when the sky is bright
    Everything's all right!""

    One of the classic love songs of all time. I used to play this on the radio in the late 70s and early 80s whenever I could get it in. Pure clean sound

    Every time I hear this song it takes me back to the late summer-early fall of 1975. I was in basic training at Fort Dix, NJ. There's
    a line in the song that goes "...well the summer's gone and I hope she's feeling the same". Summer was gone and I think of all the good times I had that summer before I went in. That sad melancholy piano riff at the beginning.
