I'm 82 years old and I have loved this song since I first heard it many years ago. I can feel the words and music like no other song has ever made me feel. A true masterpiece,
ABSOLUTELY!! I’m 63 and was in high school around 1976 when this song came out and OMG … what an impression it made on me … I didn’t really understand the meaning of the lyrics so much as I wasn’t dating yet … but the haunting melody left an indelible mark in my memory banks and hasn’t left nearly five decades later … a MASTERPIECE as has been stated … simply BRILLIANT!!! 🤩👍🤩
2024 anyone? Can you imagine this song is almost 50 yrs. Btw, there are many beautiful songs but not many live song is better than the studio version. This is one of those. Very majestic & damn fantastic❤❤❤❤
@@nigelbeaumont1109❤❤I agree with every thing you said ! We have to hope & pray that things get better for this whole planet ! There is so much heartache all over the world ! ❤❤
Around 1976 in the dark early morning I drove down Bondi Road [Sydney] toward the beach. The stars were tingling, the light of a twinkling ship was out to sea. The roads were extremely quiet anf this song was playing. It was simply an awesome feeling which I have never forgot !!!
I was in eighth grade, and our teacher played the radio during our reading time. This song came on, and it blew my mind. I was useless the rest of the day. It's that special.
The summer of 1975. I had just graduated HS and was on my way to College. this song came out and completely captivated my summer. To this day, when I hear this song, I go back to that summer of 1975. And it still brings tears to my eyes.
tears of joy I hope. I get melancholic for a much simpler time in my life, when I hear this song too, but it only brings back good memories when mom was still around, young and vibrant, and I was just a happy-go-lucky kid. The funny thing is that back then I always felt bad for the singer; thinking he must have felt really sad to perform a song like this. It was also the same year I would hear Terry Jacks seasons in the sun on the radio all the time. I guess we were all still mourning Vietnam back then.
Saludos cordiales a todos los VIAJEROS DEL TIEMPO, los que nacimos y crecimos escuchando estas bellas obras maestras de la música, vivir esta vida para mí, ha sido un verdadero PRIVILEGIO, saludos a todos, desde el ULTIMO LUGAR DEL MUNDO, UN ABRAZO FRATERNO!!!!!!
When this was a hit I was a 20 yr old United States Marine on Okinawa. I had just received the dreaded "Dear John Letter" from my cute girlfriend back home in the States. I was heart broken.... that was 1975. Im 67 yrs old I still remember the pain. But, I've been happily married 41 yrs now.
We took a lot for granted in the 70's and 80's. We all drove awesome V8 cars, listened to the best music in the world, awesome friends, and loved with great passion. Never know what you have until it's gone! But the memories remain.
Still driving awesome 70's muscle, still listening this GREAT MUSIC, still in touch with my 1st girlfriend on a weekly basis and older than dirt ha ha ha
There's a very good documentary about 10CC on UA-cam. It's said that it took 3 weeks to get right and record the backing vocal for this song. A very talented band.
I listen to this song now, and am transformed into the sixteen year-old me in the summer of 1975, crazy in love with an angel who saw me only as her friend. I never did get the girl, but the song has formed such a vivid, emotional impact in my heart and soul. Man how I miss youth and the music of the '70s
I have several......in the 70's, there was so many talented musicians that you could walk into any club or hotel lounge and hear awesome bands! When all of these great songs came out, they learned them and played them while they were still getting air play. They were so good that they sounded just like the record. RIP Phil Miller (lead guitar), Richard (lead vocals, lead guitar) & DJ Johnson(drums), Gary Acklin(lead vocals, keyboard), and Don Garrett(bass).So many songs remind me of you. ❤️ Keep playing that funky music white boys❤❤❤❤❤. LR. Ar
I was 16 and it was the best time of my life and I knew it then and appreciated it very much. I partied like a fool (I live in Fort Lauderdale Florida LOL talk about babes!) worked at a bar! Yes at 16 lol and drove a Dodge Charger… my first car. I don’t smoke any more, but remember weed was $20 an OZ! Rolled a joint from the rolling paper that came with Cheech and Chong Big Bambu album… 😂
When this great song came out in 75, it hadsuch a different sound and aura to it that it captivated me and millions. I’m so glad to have lived the 70’s. What a GREAT time ❤
I honestly remember the impact when it was released, and sitting here today 47 years later and still have the same feeling, it says everything about that song 🙂
My God, they perform and sound as just as they did 40 years ago! This era is to be cherished as this level of talent will never be repeated and someday be a memory.
It's pretty amazing how much it sounds like the original studio version considering Graham Gouldman (the bass player) is the only member of this particular line-up that appeared on the original recording.
@@Sbrownlee I was going to say the lead singer is too young to be one of the original members but WOW what a voice. Great job. Sounds almost like the original version.
Still here🙂, Love this song,very emotional,powerful. Loved it since '75 . Instant recall of being 18 and right out of high school in emotional relationship with my girl from New Braunfels, Texas. Thanks for the posting
Without rock & roll of the 1950s followed by the pop explosion and innovation of the 1960s the 70s would not have been there. It was evolution of the very best.
I just saw this and burst out crying. This is music, I miss those days and know we will never have such perfection with such feeling. Godspeed my friends, Godspeed!!
I think this is the best version of this song available on UA-cam even though it’s not all the original members. I really like his embellishment on the lead vocals.
Jestem chyba jedyną Polką, która teraz słucha i docenia tak wspaniałą muzykę. Jestem z tego dumna i szczęśliwa, że mogę słuchać tak pięknej, niepowtarzalnej muzyki! Jesteście cały czas wielcy i niepowtarzalni!!!
This brings back such memories of hope and great times!! Flashes of scenes at the beach, going to the pool, movies, friends of all races, board games, spades, volleyball, basketball and cheating at Spades!! Young people listen up: it’s JUST LIKE the old people told me when I was 13!! Now I’m OLD and wondering where did the time go? How did I reach 60? 🤣🤣🤣 Time flies so make every day count.
Gosh we had great music. These young kids have no idea about it. Im 76 and my kids tell me they love all this music bc they wud hear it when we were in the car going somewhere. Very special!! ❤❤❤
Was 14 when this song came out. Dropped in rank from 1st to 38. What does life holď for me. Always had a fear deep down. Pulled up my socks and sleeve and decided to work. Today at 62, beautiful wife, loving son, 7 houses in two countries. It is all a gift from GOD.
Preciosa sorpresa la que nos trae Utube al televisor del salón. Disfrutando de temas inolvidables, cuando la Música nos lleva a tiempos pasados y nos hace sentir que seguimos vivos.
There is a great video on UA-cam that explains in detail how 10cc created this song. They were really ingenious on how they came up with creating and producing this fantastic tune.
Me, too. A lot of songs from our music brings my tears. It’s so beautiful, it is bittersweet, so much of our lives are in this song, and, for me, many more. 😢❤😊
@@lt7378 yes. Mick Wilson. I finally remembered. He stayed with the band for a few years but is no longer with them. He has a great voice but comes across as conceited in social media and interviews. Lol.
@@andrewfortescue1634 I agree. I have been comparing radio version with this one, for a week now and I like this . Both sound wonderful to my old ❤️ heart.
62 myself and I remember mid 60s songs like, For Your Love / Pamela, Pamela/ no milk today, Bus stop (Hollies) and more that were written by Graham gouldman.
I graduated in 1973, was going steady with the person I would marry in 1977. He took my virginity, but after giving him 3’boys, he cheated on me and I kicked him out. I lost my home, inherited land, animals, but I kept my 3 boys. Was hell! Fast forward to now, our 3rd son got married. He and his wife were there. He finally apologized to me after 30+ years and said he made a mistake and never should have left me. I cried, we hugged. Some hurts can never be mended.
i miss the 70s. For those who never had to fight a war, we are like the Veterans of the simple times. Keep these beautiful years alive. Anybody born after the 90s missed out on the nostalgia.
Nostalgia, by definition, is something which is reflected on. Therefore anybody who hears this at any age at any time in the future will experience nostalgia.
I know right? The crisp of the acoustic guitar is so prominent and ripe....its amazing how you can hear all the instruments so clearly yet so individually.
I was 21 years old when I listened to this song for the first time in a pub in Saffron Walden, a small village near Cambridge in England. Now, when I am 68, it brings me great memories.
Yeah. Sorta. But I was 19 when this song came out and blew everyone away. Good memories, but I'm much happier and wiser than the kid I was in those years. Man did I do some stupid stuff.
I was in Seoul, South Korea when I heard this 10 cc song the first time. It was 1975. I was in the US army as a broadcaster and AFKN news director. I was enchanted by the beauty of the vocals and the fantastic production of the song. It remains, after all these years one of my all-time favorites. So beautiful.
I'm so happy that I grew up during the greatest music ever made!! I still love listening to 70's music! It is so much better than most of the music of today!
I wish you the same Deb that you get better soon I have RA and it put me in a wheelchair I hate the pain that comes with it but what can you do but enjoy every day like its your last.@@debsparks5217
I agree another good live performance is heart with these dreams done in Seattle about ten years ago you'll know your watching the one im talking about annie has no shoes on they did alot of that song but the one in Seattle is breathtaking like this look it up peace from Brooklyn New York
agreed... so few bands are able to catch the perfection of the studio version.... here they totally do. Mick Wilson on vocals and guitar is magnificent...as are all the other musicians... professional and talented..
Yes it is possible. Remember though the artists have had 48 years to refine, practice and prepare, and are using today's technology. What seems tough to believe is that this song was written that long ago, and has been giving me chills every time I hear it.
I can remember write it in the car with my mother when I first heard this song, roughly about the year 1975. Every time I hear it it always brings by those memories when things were so simple. The Sun shined brighter, the food tasted better, and life was so much simpler. Hell, things are so now different than they were back in the seventies, you can no longer see Saturday morning cartoons.
What's a record needle? Is that REcord or reCord? jk 😀😀 I even remember putting a nickle on the hand to stop the record from skipping. Good days, good memories.
Una delle migliori band musicali di sempre , sottovalutata perché fuori dai circuiti commerciali e conosciuta solo da chi veramente ascoltava e andava a cercarsi la musica e che non si faceva bombardare dall' immondizia musicale che gli veniva proposta dalle major discografiche dell' epoca!
I'm 82 years old and I have loved this song since I first heard it many years ago. I can feel the words and music like no other song has ever made me feel. A true masterpiece,
Me too. I’m your age.
ABSOLUTELY!! I’m 63 and was in high school around 1976 when this song came out and OMG … what an impression it made on me … I didn’t really understand the meaning of the lyrics so much as I wasn’t dating yet … but the haunting melody left an indelible mark in my memory banks and hasn’t left nearly five decades later … a MASTERPIECE as has been stated … simply BRILLIANT!!! 🤩👍🤩
The lyrics, the melancholy, it is indeed a masterpiece🥹
Chills every time I hear this song.. honestly can't explain why.. guess.. JUST BECAUSE
Me too since it came out on the radio ❤❤❤ love this song
“I’m Not In Love”
Got married in 1975, my beautiful wife and I are still married listening to this great song together love it.
God bless you both ❤
@@jeffjones4006 congrats on your upcoming 50th Anniversary!! 🙏
Played it over and over again in 1975, (age16) family not happy!
Awesome, never married, first date in 78, she was 11 and I 14, still together, we recognize as husband and wife.

I was 10 when this was released
นับถือ❤
There are rare occasions when the live version of a song is actually better than the studio version. This is one of those occasions. Simply fantastic!
I wholeheartedly disagree
Live songs are always best
1000% agree...
Quem sabe faz ao vivo...a versão ficou linda! Tanto em Studio como ao vivo 👍
Bueno es mejor pues su voz del cantante maduro muy bien y mejoro pero es acertado es muy buena está versión
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how its done. Those harmonies are spot on and shows why this song is a classic.
Doing it right should be the name of the tour
...but different singer, he dies a good job do.
Absolutely 🌹
I agree 👍
Heavenly…….pure and simple

I was sitting in my car in 1975 when this song came on the radio......September 1, 2024 and I just love it more and more.
The summer of 1975. I had just graduated HS and was on my way to College. this song came out and completely captivated my summer. To this day, when I hear this song, I go back to that summer of 1975. And it still brings tears to my eyes.

I too graduated for HS and not a care in the world. I miss that time. It went by too fast.
The summer of 75 had all the best music . I was 13
1975 the year of my rebirth
Me. 87 yrs old loved the music from the 70’s
I listened to nothing but 70s I was actually friends with Tom Powell then.

It will never happen again. Even if someone makes the music, the corps will kill it

I was 8 when this was released, way too young to appreciate. But now in 2023, wow
I was 8 too. Too young to do anything but love everything about being a kid. ❤ this song takes me back..
Thank you so much for loading this song. It brought back the sweetest memories of my husband and I of 47 years ❤
This song never grows old. I could listen to it on repeat even without vocals it’s so good but man these vocals in this version are fantastic
Even though Mick Wilson isn't an original member of this band, this performance is other-worldly. Love his voice !

I was.in the army in BRAZIL..HONESTY I HAD CRY WHEN I HEAR THE SONG ON THE RADIO 1980..I STILL GETTING EMOTIONAL...BEST TIME IN MY LIFE😅❤
I think this is the best version of this song available on UA-cam even though it’s not all the original members. I really like his embellishment on the lead vocals.
Who is the vocalist?
@@mementomori2540 Eric Stewart

Mick Wilson on lead vocals
At 69, I agree! What a performance!
Definitely Mick Wilson.
Jestem chyba jedyną Polką, która teraz słucha i docenia tak wspaniałą muzykę. Jestem z tego dumna i szczęśliwa, że mogę słuchać tak pięknej, niepowtarzalnej muzyki! Jesteście cały czas wielcy i niepowtarzalni!!!
Nie jedyną :)
No eres la única. SALUDOS

One of thee most under-rated bands and one of the most creative.
Amazing sound wonderful harmony
True dat
I think my sister was conseived to this song 😂
Absolutely agree!
This brings back such memories of hope and great times!! Flashes of scenes at the beach, going to the pool, movies, friends of all races, board games, spades, volleyball, basketball and cheating at Spades!! Young people listen up: it’s JUST LIKE the old people told me when I was 13!! Now I’m OLD and wondering where did the time go? How did I reach 60? 🤣🤣🤣 Time flies so make every day count.
Gosh we had great music. These young kids have no idea about it. Im 76 and my kids tell me they love all this music bc they wud hear it when we were in the car going somewhere. Very special!! ❤❤❤
I never tire of this song. I'm 60 and remember falling in love with this when I was very young. Puts me in another place and time
Bennie, I'm 13 years older than you and I also love it. Gets me every time. Just a classic melody. I miss when they made good music
Ha me 2

Couldn't agree more, I'm 63 and this is one of my favourite teen growing up songs.
One of my favourite growing up songs, music like this stays with you all your life.
Was 14 when this song came out. Dropped in rank from 1st to 38. What does life holď for me. Always had a fear deep down. Pulled up my socks and sleeve and decided to work. Today at 62, beautiful wife, loving son, 7 houses in two countries. It is all a gift from GOD.
Молодец! Мне уже 67, но помню эту песню.Тоже всё в порядке. Дети, загородный участок. Толко один ужас Путин развязал страшную войну, Будь он проклят!
Get over yourself.
Preciosa sorpresa la que nos trae Utube al televisor del salón. Disfrutando de temas inolvidables, cuando la Música nos lleva a tiempos pasados y nos hace sentir que seguimos vivos.
70's have the best songs. !!!!!!
Yes & this is one of the very best of them!
80:s have the best songs!!!!
You know those are facts!
@@reddragonn64
70s suck!!! 80s rules 👍👍👍👍👍👍
60-70 САМАЯ ЛУЧШАЯ ЭСТРАДА! ВСЕ СУПЕР ХИТЫ СОЗДАНЫ В ТО ВРЕМЯ!!! ХОТЯ,ИНОГДА И СЕЙЧАС ВЫСКАКИВАЕТ ШЛЯГЕР!
63 here! Great memories of this song, I never knew how they created those haunting sounds…
There is a great video on UA-cam that explains in detail how 10cc created this song. They were really ingenious on how they came up with creating and producing this fantastic tune.
Yep. As soon as he started singing, my eyes filled with tears. Such a beautiful song, and it brings back so many precious memories...
Back at the Roller Rink Skating holding hands Big Disco Ball ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤as a child
Me, too. A lot of songs from our music brings my tears. It’s so beautiful, it is bittersweet, so much of our lives are in this song, and, for me, many more. 😢❤😊
If bees spilled it
Hard to believe! This song is 45 years ago. A piece of my heart.
It was a huge part of my life in the 70’s. I loved 10cc.
@@cherylmacgregor5650 Same here Cheryl
I hear you.
The year I was born. One of my favorites.
Oh a piece of mine also, Shhh were showing our age ..LOL..🤶☃️🎅🤫🤫🤫
When a song sounds just like the original recording this is called talent.
I don't think the recording captured half the talent that stage show had, and sounded better than I've ever heard it before.
Woah. So impressed and happy to hear this in 2021!!!
I love this song
what sorcery is this... 40 years later and this man’s voice is still as smooth as a stick of butter
Not the original singer
I am only 82 but always loved this and the sentiments which I recall from when I was young and foolish as opposed to old and foolish!
Anyone who can give this a thumbs down has no idea what pure talent is. Perfection.
unless you're from Australia 🙃👎
THATS SO TRUE!!

Maybe the song upsets them,reminds them of what they had and no longer have.
Sure....you are right
I’m 72 and remember like yesterday when this came out absolutely fffin brilliant then now tomorrow ❤
In 2009 I left graduate school hearing this music, slow stroll back. Sunset summer July. I listen sometimes and lyrics.
When I first heard this song in the mid-1970's, I thought it was so eerie. So eerie, I kept listening to it.
I'm 69 & still listern to all great songs of yester year, they have more melody than the crap they call music these days
For anyone who fell in love and maybe had their heart broken along the way, this is the song that understands the feeling.
😢yes and it hurts and do much melancholy 😢
Actually this was written as a love song to his wife who he missed terribly because he had to tour so much.
It's painful!
Seventies and eighties romance music, makes me so melancholy.
Memories of the way we all were back then.
life was better then not as much stress
Amen
How in the hell can you say that the eighties was good, it destroyed the music. Fuck Madonna and MTV.
@@joemorgan9788 You were one of my favorite basebll players. You always gave 100% Did you ever consider managing?
Clean your language potty mouth. But I agree with you...70's Music get a grade of A-...80's music D+.
Thank you 10cc for one of the best songs ever. It touches my soul.
Saw 10cc live when I was,18
67 now. Still the best song ever
Thanks
Аналогично. Мне тоже 67. Впервые услышал её в России когда мне было 22 года. Сейчас так не исполняют!
One of the most haunting songs I have ever heard. A masterpiece.
I’ve never heard a live performance so perfect. What incredible talent. Perfect sound mixing. And, a timeless song.
absolutely true! the voices are incredible and the same as they were in those golden times ❤
True..brilliant..
A different lead singer doesnt seem to make much difference. I can't think of this guys name though.
@@rebahensley5323 so is this is a different lead singer?
@@lt7378 yes. Mick Wilson. I finally remembered. He stayed with the band for a few years but is no longer with them. He has a great voice but comes across as conceited in social media and interviews. Lol.
As a year old 59 man,i still love this song,in 2019,and i will in 2020
and beyond!!!!!
Takes me back to 1975!
They dont put the same effort into music these days.. this is better than the original
@@andrewfortescue1634 I agree. I have been comparing radio version with this one, for a week now and I like this . Both sound wonderful to my old ❤️ heart.
62 myself and I remember mid 60s songs like, For Your Love / Pamela, Pamela/ no milk today, Bus stop (Hollies) and more that were written by Graham gouldman.
I'm 59 too. This sounds as fresh as the first time it hit my heart.
Only recently discovered this mans music. The voice doesn't seem to match the face or image.. What a wonderful talent.
The song is TIMELESS! Damn, I wish I could back to 1975
I know what you mean, the Summer of 75 was wonderful. I was just 19, and some events seem like yesterday.
1975 was a very good year. The best!
Me too
I graduated in 1973, was going steady with the person I would marry in 1977. He took my virginity, but after giving him 3’boys, he cheated on me and I kicked him out.
I lost my home, inherited land, animals, but I kept my 3 boys.
Was hell!
Fast forward to now, our 3rd son got married.
He and his wife were there.
He finally apologized to me after 30+ years and said he made a mistake and never should have left me.
I cried, we hugged.
Some hurts can never be mended.
@@barbhansen4430 - Jeesh Barb. I'm sorry.
i miss the 70s. For those who never had to fight a war, we are like the Veterans of the simple times. Keep these beautiful years alive.
Anybody born after the 90s missed out on the nostalgia.
U mean they missed a good life great times
Ah they will have their own. Our parent's thought we'd miss out if we didn't like the stuff from the 30's and 40's. Remember?
There's nothing like going out to play and just being gone. The world was so big and the summers so long. Ah for those days of friendship and freedom.
Nostalgia, by definition, is something which is reflected on. Therefore anybody who hears this at any age at any time in the future will experience nostalgia.
@@gavinmckillop8006 no shit sherlock
Whoever the sound engineer is on this production, kudos! Perfect blend and balance of vocals and instruments.
I know right? The crisp of the acoustic guitar is so prominent and ripe....its amazing how you can hear all the instruments so clearly yet so individually.
I was 21 years old when I listened to this song for the first time in a pub in Saffron Walden, a small village near Cambridge in England. Now, when I am 68, it brings me great memories.
It is masterful how they layered the harmonies over the tracks to create that amazing sound.
So sad.,
So beautiful!
We, big Boys from 70's
are crying.
We wish 70's never end...
Yep, I'm in that club. Now I'm an old boy in the 2020's (not my eyes though)
My feelings exactly..
I was in my 20’s in the 70’s now I’m 70 in the 20’s.....
Are tears of the soul ..
Yeah. Sorta. But I was 19 when this song came out and blew everyone away. Good memories, but I'm much happier and wiser than the kid I was in those years. Man did I do some stupid stuff.
Wow !! This takes me back 50 years.
Big boys don't cry
Big boys don't cry
Well done and thanks for the memories
News flash. Big boys do cry. Regards friend, rick
I was in Seoul, South Korea when I heard this 10 cc song the first time. It was 1975. I was in the US army as a broadcaster and AFKN news director. I was enchanted by the beauty of the vocals and the fantastic production of the song. It remains, after all these years one of my all-time favorites. So beautiful.
I'm so happy that I grew up during the greatest music ever made!! I still love listening to 70's music! It is so much better than most of the music of today!
hope you get better
@@robertguzman4075 Thanks, but after 13 yrs., not sure that is going to happen. But that is okay.
yeah

I agree another good live performance is heart with these dreams done in Seattle about ten years ago you'll know your watching the one im talking about annie has no shoes on they did alot of that song but the one in Seattle is breathtaking like this look it up peace from Brooklyn New York
Im a Son of a Vietnam veteran, and blessed to grow up listening to the best music in my Generation.. Thanks Dad.... 💓.....
Thanks for the service.
Listening December 22 2024 age 58. It was on the radio in my youth. Still a tender song, renders me teary and nostalgic of better times.
Still manages to give me goose bumps each time I hear this
This song makes me want to travel back in time to when I was younger and things seemed better.
The nostalgia hits.
When I was in my 20's, this song was a hit and it always sent me to my happy place. It still does.
@@boomerguy9935glad to hear it 🙂 it's definitely up there on my list of songs to have to listen to
I agree
Love this song 🎵🎼🎵❤

One of the greatest songs written and performed. Definitely in the top 5 of all time !!!!
My goodness!!! This song brings me back to a much simpler time. When you thought anything was possible….
This is so timeless!!!
Hello Eda how are you doing?
Is it possible for this to be better than the studio version? Talk about perfection.
agreed... so few bands are able to catch the perfection of the studio version.... here they totally do.
Mick Wilson on vocals and guitar is magnificent...as are all the other musicians... professional and talented..
Mmmm yeah //
Yes, better
Yes it is possible. Remember though the artists have had 48 years to refine, practice and prepare, and are using today's technology. What seems tough to believe is that this song was written that long ago, and has been giving me chills every time I hear it.
@gregoire8376 Exactly...I couldn't agree more.
"What A Absolutely Timeless Masterpiece"!!!
Steve kruse this is definetly a reminiscing song ,I love it . It never gets old.
Hello, pulled this song up for you guys. hope You enjoy it!!
how many times you watched it,?...i have lost count...20+ ?

Yes, Lost Count Also!!!

❤ hermosísima canción llego a mi...sin buscarla...momentos inolvidables vienen a mi mente tengo 60 años hoy noviembre 11/2024😊❤
I can remember write it in the car with my mother when I first heard this song, roughly about the year 1975. Every time I hear it it always brings by those memories when things were so simple. The Sun shined brighter, the food tasted better, and life was so much simpler. Hell, things are so now different than they were back in the seventies, you can no longer see Saturday morning cartoons.
Cartoons were deem violent, but letting criminals roam the streets is acceptable!
i suspect there is a fortune in bringing back what we recall was a great time
I remember moving the record needle to listen to this over and over. Beautiful music, beautiful memories of wonderful days.
💖
Hi Diane, a lot easier to play repeat now but maybe not so engaging. Worth all the effort though for a song like this!!! Awesome voice and music!
That made me smile.....
What's a record needle? Is that REcord or reCord? jk 😀😀 I even remember putting a nickle on the hand to stop the record from skipping. Good days, good memories.
I'm still in love with this song no matter what year it is❤
It's a masterpiece
I'm with you, Sabrina
Ich bin versenkt nach Tod Marion
I can fall in love with you an the beautiful song ..
Es ist so wunderschön und voller Gefühle...
Una delle migliori band musicali di sempre , sottovalutata perché fuori dai circuiti commerciali e conosciuta solo da chi veramente ascoltava e andava a cercarsi la musica e che non si faceva bombardare dall' immondizia musicale che gli veniva proposta dalle major discografiche dell' epoca!
