    The Platters deserves to be treated as one
    of the top of the pops. This is no question about it. The voice is so soothing. Highly recommended to all the viewers and song lovers throughout the world.

    My dad who died in 1989, never liked music, but he loved two songs. "I left My Heart In San Francisco" and "The Great Pretender". Make me tear up when I hear this song, miss my dad so much.

      Mine too. I was a freshman in college when this song was released, and I can still enjoy it as much today. I agree about Lola. She harmonized beautifully and was a class lady. Tony Williams was absolutely the best as lead singer.

I lost my mom last year on Father's Day. Songs by good memories and songs with sad memories. Especially when you didn't grow up with your family members.😞🙁😕😒☹🙋🏽‍♂️🙋🏽‍♂️.💔.😢😢😢😪😭😔😞.

    Love your statement. Loved this song, I must have been all of 10 but instantly knew greatness when I heard it. And you must be a happy man! God is great and to those who don't acknowledge that, well, anyway, God is great.
    This song is so wonderful. The voices are wonderful. The arrangement, the voices! In fact, it is hard to find singers back then who were not wonderful!

    The Platters listening in 2022, they are the greatest singers and their material is a knockout brilliant harmonised performers, the most beautiful sounds come from this group.Not sure where the singers and , the songs, have gone. But we have a handful of extremely talented people around now, I love this group , I also love Miley Cyrus , what a rich deep strong voice that young woman has, I wonder what her rich voice would bring to some platter material?
