Denise Nicole Wilson Mendez Most of us 8th graders were drinking Beer in 1976. So much for us Catholics being Catholics drinking beer at 14 years old. Us boys went crazy there was girl that looked like Steavie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac.
After all those years I can’t choose between It’s one of those nights and Looking thru the eyes of love but in a close finish it probably will be Looking ... What a gifted singer David Cassidy was. I enjoyed every singje episode of the Partridge Family. An everlasting memory of youth long gone by.
I feel NO GUILT! :) I was 10 when David Cassidy started on that show. I was instantly in Love. That Voice. That Face. That Hair. I wanted to be Mrs. Keith Partridge so badly.
I had this album when I was in fourth grade. The days before I lost my innocence. Used to listen to this all alone by myself. I think I had my first kiss that summer 1972. It was at the YMCA. What a great time to be a kid!
John Lennon always said that "I Think I Love You" was the perfect pop song (and it remains incredibly catchy). But this is the superior song. So yes, I do think this is the best Partridge Family song. I'll Meet You Halfway is another great one.
This is my all time favourite of David Cassidy and The Partridge Family, I've even got the karaoke version and sing it regularly at social venues (pre-covid) of course.
David Cassidy wanted a little more mature sound on the Partridges' records, and got it with this 1971 song from Tony Romeo. Cassidy nailed the vocal and the sound is perfect. For my money, their best 45.
The simplicity of our youth can never be shown as easy as this. That distinctive voice of David Cassidy and studio based backing ( except for mama Shirley Jones ) will always be a joy to our ears.
The Partridge Family sure had some good songwriters, melodic catchy simple happy soul tunes! In their own sort of way they were right up there with The Carpenters music, just good listening stuff all the way through!
Charity Proctor Im a PISCES born to like Music. PISCES also means Im a nice person. PISCES also means Im an IRISH person. They say girls like IRISH Men. Sorry its true most IRISH like there Alcohol. It sucks most people think all IRISH are Drunks. Doesnt help most IRISH songs are about Drinking. Grade school I was a Ladies Man the girls told me I was cute with IRISH FReckles on my face. US O"GRADY boys must have been good Looking these girls came to our house some times right after school. US O"GRADY FAMILY were 70s kids. Not gonna Lie some of us liked our Alcohol. IRISH FAmilys are known for having lots of kids, my family had 8 kids, MOM side gave us kids 12 first cousins. I admit us IRISH are Different born with Red Hair & Freckles. Its funny some people think our Freckles are Bug Bites. Us IRISH have our flaws our Skin burns easily in the Sun. It sucks even today REDHEADS get Bullied. Sucked for me my Freckles never diasepper from my face. You should see me I have so many Freckles on my body. I like my name all 3 names are IRISH JAMES PATRICK O"GRADY. Sorry about all IRISH Stuff IM A PROUD IRISH AMERICAN
I didn't think much of the Partridge Family's music many years ago. But compared to the garbage they call "music" coming out today, listening to them again is sweet and brings back some great memories.
It's not just a great song "for the time," it's a great song PERIOD. They had good songwriters and members of The Wrecking Crew playing those instruments. I always thought this one was under-acknowledged, and might have gotten more attention if someone like Glen Campbell had recorded it. And unlike a lot of teen idols of that time, David Cassidy could really sing.
Not only is this my favorite PF song, but it describes every girl I had a crush on growing up. Also nice to hear the full version, since the cut parts are among the most beautiful.
MrTrashcan Wasnt just me 8th grade 1976 a girl looked like Steavie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac. What a crazy School most of us 8th graders were drinking Beer. Went to lots of 70s concerts but never saw David. I feel like a 70s kid all over again still listing to Stones, Zeppelin Allman Brothers Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Mr Trashcan Me too grade school girls told me I was cute with IRISH Freckles on my face to bad they were 7-8 year olds. So much for CATHOLICS BEING CATHOLICS most of us 8th graders were drinking Beer. This was the 70s. 8th grade there was girl that looked like Steavie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac. Us 8th graders were going to Stadium concerts at 14.
@@jimogrady1131 Jim, just saw your post. Maybe Catholics aren't supposed to drink and smoke, but every one I ever knew did. Loved Stevie Nicks. Too bad she ended up a fat and ugly like most other female performers.

Isabelle Rose So popular David selling out Stadium concerts at age 18. David was on another TV show RUBY&THE ROCKITS. Child actor ALEXA VEGA played his Daughter, ALEXA did good for herself she Married Carlos Pena a member of Boy Band BIG TIME RUSH. ALEXA signed with HALLMARK CHANNEL FOR THOSE XMAS MOVIES. David had to do same thing he did on Partridge Family doing his own concerts.
89 WLS-AM in Chicago played the $#!% out of this classic Partridge Family track beginning in December, 1971. I remember this and "Brand New Key" by Melanie being in heavy rotation on the station, at that time.
Reminds me of when I was small and I watched this everyday after 🏫 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Dominic Tripaldi David was good he was selling out Stadium concerts at age 18. To bad he had a drinking problem. I understand those 70s bands doing Drugs & Alcohol, doing so many concerts & traveling a lot. Then all those girls wanting to get action from those Long Hair Rock Stars. Its funny the bass guiter Danny was playing was bigger than him. Those 70s concerts were crazy because of very little Security. People so drunk even loud music didnt wake them. 1 concert they made us wait 2 hours some band wanted to play when it got dark out. Did get to see big bands Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Doobie Brothers, Fleetwood Mac, Allman Brothers, Country Singer Alan Jackson.
Hi @PartridgeFamilyVEVO, thank you for sharing. I have used this on my blog which you're very welcome to visit, to see how this fits into my musical road. My post will go live on my website at 8pm (GMT) on 5th March 2023.
For some reason British pop radio did not play this enough. I seemed to catch it fleetingly on Radio One and Radio Luxembourg occasionally, but wouldn't have minded if it was every other record.
lainLucey1972 I was kinda scared at those 70s concerts, I was a big drinker. I was afraid of fights I was only 5'6" Tall. I surprised myself how much I could drink being so small. Also surprised I had Girlfriends being small. They say the Ladies like IRISH Men. Us O"GRADY boys most have been good looking grade school girls came to our house sometimes right after school. I was saying about fights because of very little Security. Lucky me Girlfriends liked to party like me. Us O"GRADY boys were stand outs with IRISH Freckles on our face. Not always fun being IRISH people think were all Drunks, REDHEADS even today still get Bullied, some think our Freckles are Bug Bites. My favorite IRISH Quote KISS ME IM IRISH
Ok, it was difficult in the uk at this time but the music was immense.... its those songs that u have never heard that just grabs you by the throat and shouts at u in a much appreciative way.... :)
De las que mas me gusta es este disco con todos en conjunto"the family partridge" destaca david cassidy inigualable el show no me.lo perdia lastima que se nos fue para siempre su musica quedara para la posteridad desde lima peru.

Hands down, my all time favorite Partridge Family song.
Mine too
Concordo è la mia favorita anche per me POESIA..
Mine TOO!!!
Same :)
This reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 Adult Contemporary chart in 1972.
Close your eyes.......it brings you right back to a more innocent time.
Love the innocence of this song and the 70s! I wish it were still like that!

Love this song...Smoother times of the 1970s...
Any Partridge Family song is a guilty pleasure & this one is no exception.
I feel NO GUILT! :) I was 10 when David Cassidy started on that show. I was instantly in Love. That Voice. That Face. That Hair. I wanted to be Mrs. Keith Partridge so badly.
There's no guilt. Only pleasure.
There is nothing 'guilty pleasure' about these backing musicians. Sounds like 'The Wrecking Crew'.
Luv. It. 🎉
if this isn't a reminder of how short this life is i don't know what is tears beyond tears
Hal Blaine and Wrecking Crew are just beautiful laying down such a great arrangement.
I like his voice so much - definitely also in 2021. RIP David Cassidy
Love the instruments in this composition...❤️❤️
I had this album when I was in fourth grade. The days before I lost my innocence. Used to listen to this all alone by myself. I think I had my first kiss that summer 1972. It was at the YMCA. What a great time to be a kid!
No one was a better singer than David Cassidy! LOng may your beautiful voice live!
My favorite David Cassidy song!!! R.I.P. David
Tom Bahler---------Jackie Ward-------Ron Hicklin--------are 3 of the background singers .
Is this possibly, the absolute best song by the Partridge Family? ☮️🖖👽🌞🌈🥰🕉💮
John Lennon always said that "I Think I Love You" was the perfect pop song (and it remains incredibly catchy). But this is the superior song. So yes, I do think this is the best Partridge Family song. I'll Meet You Halfway is another great one.

This is my all time favourite of David Cassidy and The Partridge Family, I've even got the karaoke version and sing it regularly at social venues (pre-covid) of course.
One of their best songs and a Top 40 hit in 1972.
Top 20, btw.
David Cassidy wanted a little more mature sound on the Partridges' records, and got it with this 1971 song from Tony Romeo. Cassidy nailed the vocal and the sound is perfect. For my money, their best 45.
So pretty! I agree, David's voice and the music are perfect.
Tony Romeo was quite possibly the best song writer of all time.
@@ericbarash6842 Oh definitely, WAY better than Lennon and McCartney. :)
I wouldn't go anywhere near that far, but Romeo was a fine pop songwriter; he had also written for the Cowsills, so he knew that style.
Love these 1970's songs..❤❤
David lives on in my heart and sooths my soul with his music he left behind ❤😭🌹
This is a beautiful song.David Cassidy sure could sing.
David was a fine singer, but it's the background singers and instrumentals that shined here.
@@lwh7301I agree with you.
The simplicity of our youth can never be shown as easy as this. That distinctive voice of David Cassidy and studio based backing ( except for mama Shirley Jones ) will always be a joy to our ears.
@@lwh7301they all shine. It is a perfect song. My very favorite David vocal. Best PF song next to ITILY.
A gorgeous pop song so full of simple joys- never fails to make me smile.
...and a little sad too, maybe, the poignancy is very moving..
Another classic PF power ballad with David turning in a strong lead vocal, and superb backing by Shirley and the Wrecking Crew.
The Partridge Family sure had some good songwriters, melodic catchy simple happy soul tunes!
In their own sort of way they were right up there with The Carpenters music, just good listening stuff all the way through!
Loved you in my youth - loving you still in 2020.
Phil O'Saurus Yeah this stuff brings back great memories. Partridge family’s still my favorite guilty pleasure
These are the last songs. When I had to leave. I always know that was going to end. I love Kathy !. She sweepted me off my feet. Always.
Absolutely, the VERY best of " PF" --------RIP, David. ------------KUDOS to Wes Farrell for this gorgeous production. --------WolfSky9
One of my favorite songs by The Partridge Family. Glad I got into this show. Never a disappointment! RIP David Cassidy! Your youngest fan, Charity!

The "B" side to this song is also a great classic too. It's "One Night Stand", written by Paul Anka.
Tony Romeo ❣️

David had a voice like scott walker
Yess!❤😮😊
Loved playing the bass lines on this. I think it may be Joe Osborn playing.
A definite top of list song if I had to pick a P.F. song.

Kris Erik Stevens on WLS, Chicago.
where did the time go?
...hace casi 50 años, de esta serie tomé una frase que hasta estos días sigo aplicando y me aompaña: "yo me río ante el peligro"...
Tony Romeo made a strong nod to Richard Rodgers on this one.
Del Smith who’s Richard Roberts?
Richard Rodgers a legendary Broadway composer
Good songwriters and producers not to take away from David Cassidy's great vocal.
Had David's poster on my wall along side Mark Lindsey, the Monkees, and Bobby Sherman. *sigh*
A nod to Rodgers and Hammerstein and Shirley Jones's start.
Del Smith I heard Shirley had to have Teamsters teach her to drive the Bus
What does this have to do with the comment or the song? Focus on the music.
I was told to keep away and keep things to myself. I did and it to late. I still have just you smile look.
