I can still remember driving my 1952 Red Ford Convertible to the Food Fair and then date that Beautiful Blonde girl from one year behind me in Colls High School. Wow !!! What memories. She was a true "KNOCK OUT" and still is after 63 years of marraige.

Hello everyone today is a special day for me and my daughter sandra is writing this for me I am celebrating my 90th birthday and this is one of my favorite songs, my wife and I danced this song on our 50th wedding anniversary, my wife Maria and I got married at age 20 yrs old and we are still in love like the day we got married. Love your wives and respect them always thank God for your wife. Communication is #1, God Bless everyone.
If you are still with us, Hello from Nottingham, England. I too love this song. I often remember the old days- for me this is the Sixties and Seventies - but I love music from any generation. I hope you had a decent life with few regrets- we can’t hope for much more. To love and be loved is what matters! I hope you have (had) plenty of both. 🌈🇬🇧
This song was the theme for my senior prom in 1966, 11 year after the song came out. I took a girl named Susan. We've been together 57 years, married 52. We love this song. Thank You, Fred Parris and the Satins, and may Fred Rest in Peace and Harmony.
Absolutely beautiful! You 2 are soulmates & I’m so happy you’re still blessed to have one another. My mom & dad were on their way to 50 beautiful years together on 4-21, but my dear mom passed away unexpectedly on 3-31. We miss her sorely.💔🥀😭 May you & your bride celebrate many more beautiful years together.🥂♥️♥️
Fred Parris, lead singer of The Five Satins, and author of one of the greatest and most requested songs of all time, has just passed away (January 2022). May he rest in peace.
I turn 82 next week and remember dancing cheek to cheek with my love Jodi to this song. We still send messages back and forth and reminiscing about those moments.
Hard to believe they recorded this song in the basement of a Catholic Church. Fred Parris said the song was blessed. Great song love it. Wish they still made this type of music.
Ericka, thanks for the info. And thanks to the someone who actually knew what church! Yes, this song received the ultimate respect from everyone in my generation. In essence it was our anthem. No matter what we might have been doing we took a few minutes off to listen (and sing) whenever we heard it on the radio or on a 45 record. And, CBS (the oldies station) labeled it the top song of THE 20TH CENTURY!
@walrus teeth No he his protecting his own dignity because he has the hope that one day his daughter will talk to him again... sadly this day will never come.
No I actually like it, I was raised with it and to be honest, stuff like that is honestly great because it gives me the feel like I'm reliving those decades.
I'm 80 now and this takes me back. It was wo derful music and a wonderful time. Its flown by. Slow dancing in a darkened gymnasium or at a house party. ❤
+Johnny Sunday Real music. Real style. Real talent. Real class. Not stinking Miley Cyrus or other modern trash. And I'm a Gen Xer who grew up in the 80's.
+Johnny Sunday You sure are right. What happened to talent? Singing, not screaming?Harmony, It was great growing up with the music that filled my youth.
Eighth grade. First time I danced with a boy. It was this song. I still remember him to this day whenever I listen to this song. And I'm 78 now!! What s nice memory
Listening to these great songs while currently living in the house I grew up in brings me great memories of my childhood in the 60s. Gone are the good old days. 😊
I am 76 and still listen to the best music of our time from yesterday. The time when we had style, dressed nice, and combed our hair. We took pride in how we looked, and we danced and had fun.
I heard this song thousands of times growing up, I'm 54, and my mom always listened to the classics from the 50s & 60s. When her father, my grandfather, died in 1994, on the very long drive to the cemetery, I remember this song came on the radio. She sang along & I knew I would never hear this song the same way again. Now, as my mom approaches the end, this song has even more meaning
So well said! :) Even some of the really good voices around today (yes, there actually are some) they autotune/use vocoder or insist on putting some kind of effect on them. If I were a singer I would totally refuse to have somebody do that to my voice. It's an insult! It's like somebody telling you you're pretty, but then saying you're only really pretty when you have makeup on though. I seriously would slap somebody lol. Luckily, we'll always have organic, unadulterated music like this to go back to. Thank God!! 🤩
When I was a kid my grandparents would move all their furniture aside in the living room and play their records for their youth and we would all dance. It is a very happy memory of my childhood. When I grew up I danced with my husband at my wedding to this song. Later I would go on to rock my baby to sleep while I sang this song to her. It's so BEAUTIFUL. I adore it. 💗
@@shanedavis8203 love love the 50s songs and the fun fun we had without the drugs...guys were so cool so were the girls.... Sorry you all missed the 50s...
In the still of the night I held you, held you tight 'Cause I love, love you so Promise I'll never let you go In the still of the night (In the still of the night) I remember that night in May The stars were bright above I'll hope and I'll pray To keep your precious love Well before the light Hold me again with all of your might In the still of the night (In the still of the night) So before the light Hold me again with all of your might In the still of the night (In the still of the night) In the still of the night
One of the most sought after, too. The recording they were singing to was the original, when they were called "The Five Satins". Wonder where the 5th guy was.
My grandfather loves this kind of music im only 23 but I’ve found a strong appreciation for this kind of music especially given the time period , salute to these gentlemen
False. Music today isn't worse than music 50 years ago; there's just been time for us to forget all the bad music from the time and all the good music to drift to the top. It's just sampling bias - there was plenty of absolute shit back then, but nobody remembers it, so we just see the things that have stuck around. There's plenty of absolute shit today, but since we haven't had the time to wade through it and find the gems, it looks like there's more. Consider the music of Imagine Dragons: much of it is still popular today, and I expect it to remain popular for years to come. In 20 years, there'll be kids in the UA-cam comment section, or the future equivalent, complaining about how they don't make music in the 2030s the way they did in the 2000s and 2010s; they like _Believer,_ but they've never even heard of _Anaconda_ or _All About that Base._
the music reflected the values and culture of the time and the artists were products of that culture and those values. Thats why the artists and music of that time were so great, because that time was so great. Now its all changed but they cant change the past, they can revise the history books but they cant change what actually happened and they way it really was as recorded by theses songs. Every year the contrast grows more stark. I notice a lot of young people like this old music though, so maybe they will bring it back. I hope so .
kornfreak78 hey, dude! I never thought i'd see you here, lol. 😯 I've seen your comments in Korn's videos. I guess we have a really, really great taste in music.
Good morning my friend I was born in 1955 I see this song from 1952 before I was born to Am still listening to this music in July of 2024 it's a great song to sing with them to
Whatever happened to this kind of music... 1956 and it was played at every teen club I ever went to when I was in high school...1963 to 1967. Now you barely hear a song for a month( Thank God!)... never again times like this ... until my funeral...
I am 59 years old . Yesterday I went to the movie theater to watch a movie 'THE IRISHMAN' provided by Netflix. 40 years ago, the American oldies, doo-woop have been popular again in Japan. This masterpiece is my favorite since I was in my twenties.
@@Corky341 You don't know what the music was like in the motown sound days? Take a look at that. A lot of the modern music has little respect for much of anybody. Maybe a few things like material, but not humans.
And psychologists worry for the youth of today's incapacity of having emotional connectionas to others. There is something to be said about the culture and society, music and other media largely included, in which these kids are growing up. That said, still plenty of great music about the human experience being made every day.
I'm sorry to have to comment on today's music as having no "staying power"....it just will not be remembered ....The music from the 50's and 60's came from the heart and the soul and the fact that it is being played today is it's own testimonial.....G'day
These guys are a class act. Beautiful song I used to dance to years ago. Notice that the guys had all their clothes on, no calling women names, or other profanity. Talent doesn't need to have fireworks on the side, or naked women dancing. Don't get me wrong; I love naked women , but there is a time and place.........
also these songs were about something real love ,hope, faithfulness , war, American family's , being real, yet people have no idea when they call drake music this is real music
You are correct Norma. I lived in those days. Great times for me. I wish that todays young people could have a little taste of what WE had back in the day.
I only heard these types of songs in movies, but I would imagine how much nostalgia this would bring to someone who lived in or around this time frame. Even I feel certain emotion conjure up listening to it having never lived back then.
It made 23 in the billboard charts, so wasn't a big hit at the time, it's popularity increased due to its inclusion in American graffiti and dirty dancing, then various commercials and compilation albums released later.. So was more widely known from the early 1970s onwards
"In The Still of the Night" was one of the classic Doo Wop songs that made the Doo Wop era such a great time to listen to beautifully recorded music. It were songs like these that made dancing with your girl friend or wife something special. Growing up in this era was a wonderful time listening to and dancing to the great music that came from the early years of "Rock & Roll. That's why I'm so thankful for UA-cam you can still go back in time and hear and enjoy the Icons and Legends that started Rock & and Roll.
I just happened to have found out that most of these guys are still alive even 60 years after this recorded!! They were in the late 10s and early 20s back then, now they're in their late 70s and early 80s!! Most groups from that time have now sinced passed away usually leaving only 1 or 2 members but the majority of this group is still alive!!!! God bless these young men they are still here 60 years later!!! :)
YEP. Most of them are still alive. A few have gone, but if you catch the Doo Wop series of Public Tv you can see these when they were still alive, not as young, but still doing it. Check out Jerry Butler singing Your Precious Love and Ed Townsend singing For Your Love. Ed passed on in 2009, but his singing will live on forever. That's why those of us that were teens in the 50s and 60s have our heads on straight, while the teens of TODAY JUST WANT TO SHOOT PEOPLE AND DO THEIR DRUGS.
Nick Mulae I thank you for the well written tribute for the Satins singing group and the fact that most of them are still alive. So many of the talented Doo wop singing groups and individuales have passed on, what a great loss of the wonderful talent that came out of the 1050s,that left us with so many fond memories.
I am twenty years old in the year 2019. This music is unbeatable and timeless. I'm so blessed to know what music truely has to offer me, unlike most young men my age.
@@MatadorShifter oh I didn’t think about that part. I took it as him wanting to leave the door open to Peggy or any of his other daughters, should they stop by. Heartbreaking any way you slice it
I do. It's my music of choice for over 60 yrs. Songs I danced to in high school are still being played, in their original version, at dances all around me. This song gets played at sometime at every dance. Love it.
Man alive, how well I remember this great song from my youth ! It will always be a classic r&r song and will out live all the garbage that is such a big and worthless part of our culture in the 21st century. To you readers and listeners of the gen x and z and whatever generations, you guys and gals missed the best of this music and it will never return....
let's be honest then and just say I didn't search for this!!!, I don't even begin to know this song let alone these artists so I can't search for something that I don't know of existence, I was playing something else from another artist I also don't know lol they were called The Dells when I saw this also and decided to listen and it's really nice too, gotta love UA-cam algorhythm it's certainly helped me to discover other songs/artists I could never of found otherwise
I can still remember driving my 1952 Red Ford Convertible to the Food Fair and then date that Beautiful Blonde girl from one year behind me in Colls High School. Wow !!! What memories. She was a true "KNOCK OUT" and still is after 63 years of marraige.
Congratulation man💙
Jealous of you sir
Congratulations mister. You deserve this big W.
Wow, we had a Food Fair here in Virginia...I had forgotten all about it
That’s so sweet💗
I am in my 82 year on this planet and I still love to hear this music.
Bless you sir, I am in my 69th year but way too young to enjoy it, I only remember from around 57' so I guess thats not too bad lol

this is magic. at 41
Back when music was real. I'm 32. I was born in the wrong era.
LOL, my mom told me that all the time..................
Me too.😂
Our parents were married on September 1st,1959! I was born on August 6th,1960!
When I was 13 I asked my Dad what his favorite song was, He said this song. I've loved it ever since,
I’m 74 & still remember all the words to this wonderful song. My era had the absolute best music!
For Sure!
We will never forget the words to the songs we grew up with. The best music and songs ever.
Until the pot smoking jerks from Britain came over and destroyed everything!
This era music is breath taking but not the best the 90s music era is unstoppable
Yes, the best unforgettable music!🎼🎶♥️

77 still listening.
Many memories.

One of my top 10.
Hope you're doing well

I’m 21 and I love this!!
So beautiful and emotional. Makes me feel like I’m in love with someone. Makes me feel like the old times were better.
Old times were better take it from an 81 year old.
Hello to my fellow 21 year old. I believe folks like you and me were raised properly. To enjoy older music.
I agree with you we had the best years growing up.
I’m 20
They were better no comparison to 2021
One of THE greatest songs of all time.
I was born '98 and I love doo wop and oldies, I think they were amazing
There's always that one teenager looking for respect lol
No I actually like it, I was raised with it and to be honest, stuff like that is honestly great because it gives me the feel like I'm reliving those decades.
yeah but people always come on here stating how young they are and its pretty damn pointless tbh
I was born in 1944 and got to listen to it all and live in those times. Itwas a great time to be alive.
Jonathan James reliving? you never lived them kid. its ok that you like this stuff, but the 50s and 60s weren't that great.
I'm 80 now and this takes me back. It was wo derful music and a wonderful time. Its flown by. Slow dancing in a darkened gymnasium or at a house party. ❤

One of the most famous doo-wop songs ever recorded. It's pure innocence is dripping with class.
One of the most sought after, too. The recording
they were singing to was the original, when they

Do you remember the Korean War (1950-1953)?
Back when music had class. I have a lot of respect for artists of this caliber. They just don't exist anymore.
False. Music today isn't worse than music 50 years ago; there's just been time for us to forget all the bad music from the time and all the good music to drift to the top. It's just sampling bias - there was plenty of absolute shit back then, but nobody remembers it, so we just see the things that have stuck around. There's plenty of absolute shit today, but since we haven't had the time to wade through it and find the gems, it looks like there's more.
Consider the music of Imagine Dragons: much of it is still popular today, and I expect it to remain popular for years to come. In 20 years, there'll be kids in the UA-cam comment section, or the future equivalent, complaining about how they don't make music in the 2030s the way they did in the 2000s and 2010s; they like _Believer,_ but they've never even heard of _Anaconda_ or _All About that Base._
Explain lil pump then dumbass nigga
THERE IS NO ''MUSIC'' TODAY.
the music reflected the values and culture of the time and the artists were products of that culture and those values. Thats why the artists and music of that time were so great, because that time was so great. Now its all changed but they cant change the past, they can revise the history books but they cant change what actually happened and they way it really was as recorded by theses songs. Every year the contrast grows more stark. I notice a lot of young people like this old music though, so maybe they will bring it back. I hope so .
kornfreak78 hey, dude! I never thought i'd see you here, lol. 😯 I've seen your comments in Korn's videos. I guess we have a really, really great taste in music.
I'm 82 and remember and love those oldies
I'm 15 years old and I feel like the only one my age who appreciates this music, I'd choose this over anything now a days
Must be the only one in your class with Class.
I'm 11
nah I'm 14 and hope to dance with someone to this song someday
Im 15
yeh same
Born in the late 40’s, can’t replace it!!’😢😮
I was born in 52.
I was a kid. i remember this song was all over the radio in new york.
Was great sound.
An era when heartfelt harmony really mattered!
Real music! No auto tune!!
Dantz Music Studio jen, o presidente do
An era full of racism!!!
An era full of toxic hate and racism! Fuck this era
From rags to riches
My age was in the single digits when I heard this song…now at 73, still my favorite slow song!❤️
This definitely was the very best doo wop song ever!! Actually my all time very favorite song!!
It’s a great song ❤️
Hello Dear ❤️
Great song! Never gets old! 👍
hetss
Check out Surrender by Suicide
Never gets old. I remember this song like it was yesterday.
Hello, how are you doing today and the entire family and friends doing today i really love the song
Unlike today’s music, this is actually what you call music period
all music is different and I'm sure u can find good ones released nowadays
“born in the wrong generation” type beat
@@ohonovskiy4794 man stfu you sound cringe asf lmao
Yes!!!
Shut up. Please.
Good morning my friend
I was born in 1955 I see this song from 1952 before I was born to
Am still listening to this music in July of 2024 it's a great song to sing with them to
Whatever happened to this kind of music... 1956 and it was played at every teen club I ever went to when I was in high school...1963 to 1967. Now you barely hear a song for a month( Thank God!)... never again times like this ... until my funeral...
I am 59 years old . Yesterday I went to the movie theater to watch a movie 'THE IRISHMAN' provided by Netflix. 40 years ago, the American oldies, doo-woop have been popular again in Japan. This masterpiece is my favorite since I was in my twenties.
STILL THE BEST OLDIE SONG AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!!
sounds like you know what you are talking about.
Without a doubt, one of the top 3 doo whop songs of all time.
Classic dooWop, American bandstand, fabulous 50’s great era!
Amazing music!
This song is dedicated to everyone who lost a loved one. ua-cam.com/video/JSbGGiSe3S8/v-deo.html

Remind me of a really close friend of mind that went to Vietnam his name was Ern
This was when young men sang of love for a young lady, look at the singers real Gentlemen dress with class .
I have always wondered how we went from The Motown Sound to the mowdown sound Vito.
@@fredc8346 I'm sorry Fred but I don't have a clue what you mean. However I too cry at the way 'hip-hop' singers regard their 'ladies'.
@@Corky341 You don't know what the music was like in the motown sound days? Take a look at that. A lot of the modern music has little respect for much of anybody. Maybe a few things like material, but not humans.
And psychologists worry for the youth of today's incapacity of having emotional connectionas to others. There is something to be said about the culture and society, music and other media largely included, in which these kids are growing up. That said, still plenty of great music about the human experience being made every day.
Harmony... love this one
I'm sorry to have to comment on today's music as having no "staying power"....it just will not be remembered ....The music from the 50's and 60's came from the heart and the soul and the fact that it is being played today is it's own testimonial.....G'day
Four magnificent voices, one unforgettable melody.
I remember holding my girl that night on the beach.When I here this song and one summer night I think of what it could have been.
Hear*
ok danny from grease
This is so romantic. ♡♡♡♡
I was 60 years old when this came out. I'm now 115. I'm deaf, dumb, blind, and incontinent, but I can still sing this song in my head.
GOD Bless you! 👑
Oh, and I don't believe it...(115)? GOD BLESS you again!
😂
These guys are a class act. Beautiful song I used to dance to years ago. Notice that the guys had all their clothes on, no calling women names, or other profanity. Talent doesn't need to have fireworks on the side, or naked women dancing. Don't get me wrong; I love naked women , but there is a time and place.........
Agreed!
YES
I borrowed your comment John, just too good not to share, hope you don't mind, people need to know.
John Smith
also these songs were about something real love ,hope, faithfulness , war, American family's , being real, yet people have no idea when they call drake music this is real music
When ever this song, and only this song, comes on the radio, what you should do is crank it up as load as you can, and enjoy it.
I know, I just have to stop whatever I am doing and listen!
THEY DON'T MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS ANYMORE....:(
You are correct Norma. I lived in those days. Great times for me. I wish that todays young people could have a little taste of what WE had back in the day.
It was probably a great time... for a white straight male.
The music was great for everyone.
memories...
There Neverrrrr Everrr be another day ,Like Our Good old days :( Neverrrrrrrrrrr :(
Those harmonies just beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍
+Gem Lo Valentine Yes they are
What harmonies?
Are you deaf?
+Gem Lo Valentine You are beautiful... Can I sing some Oldies for you with my guitar? Where do you live? Arty
+Jimmy Dean evidently you are this is an awesome well sung song.
I only heard these types of songs in movies, but I would imagine how much nostalgia this would bring to someone who lived in or around this time frame. Even I feel certain emotion conjure up listening to it having never lived back then.
If you have'nt already, you should check the movie "American Graffiti."
I feel lots of nostalgia though I didn't live through that time.
Nothing has compared to those days and the music of the era. 75+ yrs. young and I miss it still.👏🏾👍🏾
Your right, it does.
It made 23 in the billboard charts, so wasn't a big hit at the time, it's popularity increased due to its inclusion in American graffiti and dirty dancing, then various commercials and compilation albums released later..
So was more widely known from the early 1970s onwards
The film "The Irishman" had brought me here. Great song!
One of the greatest songs ever recorded. Freddie was pure class.
"In The Still of the Night" was one of the classic Doo Wop songs that made the Doo Wop era such a great time to listen to beautifully recorded music. It were songs like these that made dancing with your girl friend or wife something special. Growing up in this era was a wonderful time listening to and dancing to the great music that came from the early years of "Rock & Roll. That's why I'm so thankful for UA-cam you can still go back in time and hear and enjoy the Icons and Legends that started Rock & and Roll.
A durable comment of an Era that has *ENDURED*. Wonderful. And thank you UA-cam.
I just happened to have found out that most of these guys are still alive even 60 years after this recorded!! They were in the late 10s and early 20s back then, now they're in their late 70s and early 80s!! Most groups from that time have now sinced passed away usually leaving only 1 or 2 members but the majority of this group is still alive!!!! God bless these young men they are still here 60 years later!!! :)
YEP. Most of them are still alive. A few have gone, but if you catch the Doo Wop series of Public Tv you can see these when they were still alive, not as young, but still doing it. Check out Jerry Butler singing Your Precious Love and Ed Townsend singing For Your Love. Ed passed on in 2009, but his singing will live on forever. That's why those of us that were teens in the 50s and 60s have our heads on straight, while the teens of TODAY JUST WANT TO SHOOT PEOPLE AND DO THEIR DRUGS.
Frank Welch
Fred Parris is 82 years old and still looks and sounds great.
Nick Mulae I thank you for the well written tribute for the Satins singing group and the fact that most of them are still alive. So many of the talented Doo wop singing groups and individuales have passed on, what a great loss of the wonderful talent that came out of the 1050s,that left us with so many fond memories.
Support PBS and keep the Doo WOP alive.
Hi edagdwg God blessed these men I love this special song I'm 76yrs old and remember this special loving song a forever loving fan Linda j.peace
This is THE slow dancing and make out song ... Oh, what memories! And it was always the number one year-end song on WCBS FM in New York.
+John Bellucci Ok you got me hollering up in here...truth indeed
I am twenty years old in the year 2019. This music is unbeatable and timeless. I'm so blessed to know what music truely has to offer me, unlike most young men my age.
Great then you have good taste !! xxx
Why is it only men? Stupid liberal
This music will still be playing in 50 years....can you honestly name anything in the last 10 years that will also?
Respect to you, and your great taste in music
Listen to " Since I don't have you"...it is tremendous!!! also " you belong to me "
“Father can you please leave the door open” it’s just the constant fear of being alone and dying I cried at the end
And also shows how killing his friend Hoffa left him devastated. Hoffa uses to sleep with his door half open
@@MatadorShifter oh I didn’t think about that part. I took it as him wanting to leave the door open to Peggy or any of his other daughters, should they stop by. Heartbreaking any way you slice it
Got pulled in the first time I heard this song.
Now I'm hooked.
Great song.
I could listen to doo wop all day long.
I do. It's my music of choice for over 60 yrs. Songs I danced to in high school are still being played, in their original version, at dances all around me. This song gets played at sometime at every dance. Love it.
Pat boone
the king Amen Brother!
Love Doo Wop xxxxxxxxx
move over and grab me a cold one i am right there with ya!
this song made me cry because I want this played in my wedding.
+Annie Romero its a nice song annie
+Annie Romero this beauty is always #1 in the countdown of great records on WCBS is new york, and should be. didja get married yet?
it's so beautiful.. & so sorry for that!
+Annie Romero I would like to have it played at my wake.
what wedding?
Man alive, how well I remember this great song from my youth ! It will always be a classic r&r song and will out live all the garbage that is such a big and worthless part of our culture in the 21st century. To you readers and listeners of the gen x and z and whatever generations, you guys and gals missed the best of this music and it will never return....
Hello from germany , i am now 60 and i like this music. Driving a 1972 Chrysler New Yorker for fun, its great
I now have this song stuck in my head thanks to The Irishman, not that I’m complaining.
I just read about that today. New life for this great classic. Fred's still with us, he's 85.
Ditto..came looking for the song after watching the movie.
Before I saw this movie I thought it would be a crime against Martin Scorsese if he didn’t use Gimme Shelter in The Irishman. But I was wrong.
Wow. This is music. NO MACHINES to edit their pitches. What beautiful talents
I'm 27 and just hearing this song for the first time, what a masterpiece 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
24 and it’s a great song
Im 50 yrs old i love playing this song on my 1953 nova i wold just cruise
Let’s be honest, you searched this.
*and you weren’t disappointed*
This guy's information is wrong. Cole Porter wrote this song years before this version. Google it. I did
Always love this song
Tracy McMillan - different song with the same name
@@tracymcmillan1466 bruh. Cole porter didn't even have words in his. And his didn't sound nothing like this
let's be honest then and just say I didn't search for this!!!, I don't even begin to know this song let alone these artists so I can't search for something that I don't know of existence, I was playing something else from another artist I also don't know lol they were called The Dells when I saw this also and decided to listen and it's really nice too, gotta love UA-cam algorhythm it's certainly helped me to discover other songs/artists I could never of found otherwise
I honestly wish I was born in the days of real great music like this. I love this so much.
You can feel this song in any moment, and you're will still being touched by this masterpiece.
Nice profile pic
@@outlawteddy9922 thank my man
Those were the good days. If we only knew it back then.. I'm 79 and still love this song... Thank you.
