I'm 76, this song was playing when I went into basic training March 1970... don't recall who it was by... maybe Joe Robinson... DaNang area of 'Nam Nov. '70-'71...
These new artist or songs will never have a chance in lyrical or meaning in touching the inner feelings of life without their interpretation of what they need to sing about to get recognition to become famous and sell their souls in the process for fame.
Here too, I'm 71 now and I remember listening to this song in the 70s on an eight track in my 68 Impala. It's great to get away from this world and get back to better music, better times.
When I was dating my wife of 52 years and counting we would listen to this song on the car radio 1970 beautiful rrendition of lost love sad but romantic .
9th Grade, High School. Got a battery operated Record Player and Love On A Two-Way Street for my birthday, 1970. I'm 68 years old and I can still blow this song And do the dances.
I was lucky enough to see them in concert in '74. They were the opening act for Al Green. The entire audience sang along...a real moment (pun not intended).
I am now 78 yrs old and this kind of music is the real deal soulful heart felt understandable no degrading women simply love I walk with this music young people today need to learn this is music
For me, it was summer 1971 ( i was 17 ) ... I was slow dancing with her and fell hook, line, and sinker ... Now I'm 70, and still enjoying my oldies but goodies
@@stevenmyhre2242 Yes! It sounds like 1967. Definitely a hit that sounds like it came out during the peak of the Vietnam war. 1970-71 was a continuation of mid to late 60s vibes since the decade was barely starting.
My girlfriend and I were 15 and crazy about each other. This was our song. I sang it to her and we sang it each other all summer in 1970. She was my first love, but just like the song, I lost her that fall. This song will always have a place in my heart.
I met her when I was 16. I went into the service. We saw each other over the years for a while. It’s been 23 years since I have seen her. I still dream once and a while of holding her hand or seeing her in a wedding dress. This is my favorite song and it is her to me. Can not listen with out tears flowing down my face. This is what Soul music is about. I am 66+ now and still feel a love for her as strong as ever. I always will as long as I have this song.
1970: all-time masterpiece 2022: all-time masterpiece There really is no precedent for this song. It's one of the most beautifully produced masterpieces I've ever heard. Desert island kinda thing ❤
The best era of pop music. Bands played like hell for peanuts, no money. But their songs live on. They inspired millions of people and inspired many childbirths. Long live 70s Soul!
@@minako134 everybody deserves money if they work for it. Nothing should ever be handed to you on a plate unless your incapable of living in a society.
1970. Those were the days. I’d not exchange the memories for anything. Hit, after hit, after hit. All from the palm of your hand and an AM portable radio. ❤
Omgosh so I was right all along!! Your the only person so far that knows it came out in 1968!!! And not on 69'. And bcz it said 1970 I was in disbelief. But I lived in L.A. 1968-69, Then back in Hawaii this song arrived in 1970.
It was three piece suits and groups in the 70’s. You’d tune in the Soul Train and you see the groups impeccably dressed and doing them steps. They were iconic and we held on every word. Even tried to do a little solo act to our girlfriends while we drew close together on a dance floor. Yes as time grew the love went out of those beautiful songs replaced with strong gritty words about the inner city . Now a lot of these songs are used as the hook for some these raps songs . As the world turns . I was right there graduating in 1972 . What a time . LB November 14, 2023 Tuesday morning 4:09am
First song that I ever slow-danced to. I was 13 y.o. in 1970 and was at a dance at my elementary school (8th grade). I'll always remember you, Dana Ward (R.I.P.) and Lisa Farrington.
I'm like Jerry, I want to thank people and the generation before us that left us with such wonderful music. Stacy Lattisaw released her rendition of the song, the elders let us know, this isn't a new song.
Came across your comment and I had to say something. You’re right. I’m not entirely sure what this song’ s about-as the lyrics are a little cryptic-but it wraps a peculiar type of haunting nostalgia around the listener that seems to suggest the relationship in question wasn’t entirely healthy, more like a ‘trauma bond’ or something. The relationship I’m in right now is like that. The intimacy is all but gone; all that’s left is the complacency of being around each other. We’ve just gotten used to it. Love’ s not always enough, and sometimes you have to turn the page and leave each other behind in order to grow. That lingering nostalgic longing remains, tho 😢
I am still listening to this song, October 4, 2020. I was in the 9th grade in 1970 at Whitted Junior High School in Durham, North Carolina when this song came out. That was 50 years ago and so much has happened in my life good and bad. I miss this music and old friendships from back in the day in school.
For me, it was 1971, and I really thought I had found love on a 2 way street, I still know her after all these years. I hope she remembers back then when I met her.
Yes, lost on a two way street. Goodness brings back memories reminds of my parents dancing to this now I see why. ❤️ Miss seeing my parents dancing together. Hope their Dancing in heaven married for 45 years. Omg how did they ever put up with each other that long. ❤️
Heard this tune for the 1st time about 18 years ago. My computer crashed and I couldn't remember the title. I spent ages looking through lists of soul songs with love in the title. Thought I'd never find it again. Never forgot it though. Today is a happy day. To be that memorable a song after hearing once is pretty amazing.
This song reminds me of the basement parties my sisters would have with the red light. I was about 7 or 8 yrs old wishing i could go down there. I told my sisters, when i get old enough i wont invite you to my party. Well, I got old and they got older and didn't want to party. lol.
In these days In these times When is it ever a "Two way Street." Lord may you bless others with abounding love that consists of two ways, both sides of the street not one sided love but bless those who are willing to receive. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
I was a young girl and my big cousin would take me to the shows at the Loews Palace in DC. I would go back and show my friends the steps the next day. WOW! I miss those innocent days.
True love ❤️ comes from the heart ♥️. it’s not so much about beauty. it’s the heart ♥️. oh yeah, this will always be one of my favorite songs.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Saigon, 1970, I will always remember this song and I’m 80…
@FrankieD92 may peace and blessings be upon you and your family in the name of our beloved CREATOR🌅🌌 Soul🗣 Soulja🥷🏿
73, still loving it.
Bless You! And Thank You For Your Service!

I was lucky enough to see them in concert in '74. They were the opening act for Al Green. The entire audience sang along...a real moment (pun not intended).
Still sounding so good in 2024!

Thanks grandpa for showing real music
Ha r u my granddaughter ?
I don’t know what it is about this song… it’s just MAGICAL ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
I randomly started singing this song today. I just had to hear it. It's been years.
It stays in your head 😊
This, and Stacy Lattisaws' version are pure golden memories to me. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ya nice music 😊
A song written in 1968, but made and released in March 1970. It still has a strong late 60s feel.
Ya great 60s feel ❤
@@stevenmyhre2242 Yes! It sounds like 1967. Definitely a hit that sounds like it came out during the peak of the Vietnam war. 1970-71 was a continuation of mid to late 60s vibes since the decade was barely starting.
@@JorJorCrelattoya 1970 a lady I met that's when I heard it ❤
This melody is extremely melancholy and soothing to soul. The original version is the best one here.
Yes - it is sooooo soul - tearing --- many songs back then in this time period were like this! "Tragic" songs were what I believe they were called.
I like this cover. This is not the original. It was first released by Lezli Valentine in 1968.Stacy Lattisaw did a nice cover as well.
I also like the version by stacy lattisaw.
@@may5588 this is the original version of the song.

One of my favorite song ❤

"Best era of pop music" "bands played for peanuts, no money" ......... Uh, that sounds awful though. Musicians deserve $$$ for the art they give us!!
TRUE DAT! SO FREAKING REAL!

What a magical song! I'm glad that it at least went to #1 on Billboard's Soul Chart that year (should have been #1 on ALL the charts).
It should still be on the charts

I am now 73 years old I remember this song when I was in love and my first relationship at 18 years old year 1969 ❤❤
Perfect song for a love sick teenager like I was in 1970, great for feeling melancholy.
My Mom picked me up from kindergarten. She said, "Can you believe it's 1970!?!"
For me, it was 1971, and I really thought I had found love on a 2 way street, I still know her after all these years. I hope she remembers back then when I met her.
Yes, lost on a two way street. Goodness brings back memories reminds of my parents dancing to this now I see why. ❤️ Miss seeing my parents dancing together. Hope their Dancing in heaven married for 45 years. Omg how did they ever put up with each other that long. ❤️
Like fine wine!

Heard this tune for the 1st time about 18 years ago. My computer crashed and I couldn't remember the title. I spent ages looking through lists of soul songs with love in the title. Thought I'd never find it again. Never forgot it though. Today is a happy day. To be that memorable a song after hearing once is pretty amazing.
Hi! Here to remind you of this great song! =￣ω￣=
❤
This song was played every Saturday night at our Jr High School dances in the school gym way back when. Sweet slow dance memories....
This song reminds me of the basement parties my sisters would have with the red light. I was about 7 or 8 yrs old wishing i could go down there. I told my sisters, when i get old enough i wont invite you to my party. Well, I got old and they got older and didn't want to party. lol.
You are so sosososososos talented
Beautiful voice..right up there with the amazing Russell Thompkins of the Stylistics!
I love falsetto singers
How about Harry Ray and Eddie Kendricks
Good comparison - I love both groups!! Had records from both groups and this brings back so many memories!!
And Eugene Record of the Chilites
Eddie kendricks an RON BANKS
Give it likes not dislikes this the ordinary song!!!!!
In these days
In these times
When is it ever a "Two way Street."
Lord may you bless others with abounding love that consists of two ways, both sides of the street not one sided love but bless those who are willing to receive. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
Amen! 💖💖💖
A classic time in music, when love forcefully gripped the emotion. This beautiful song, certainly, amplified strong feelings from that era!
You are amazing
I remember slow dancing to this at school dances. A truly heartfelt song for sure!
You are so sosososososos underrated
I was a young girl and my big cousin would take me to the shows at the Loews Palace in DC. I would go back and show my friends the steps the next day. WOW! I miss those innocent days.
Teresa Johnson this song reminds me of couples only at the skating rink
D.C., the Howard, Warner, & Lincoln theaters had classy classic concerts during the 60's and 70's. Summer in the DMV back the day, Chocolate City.
@Teresa Johnson Yes...! I’m from DC and I use to Lowe’s Palace & Mark IV Supper Club to see them with other groups like Choice Four, etc...
True love ❤️ comes from the heart ♥️. it’s not so much about beauty. it’s the heart ♥️. oh yeah, this will always be one of my favorite songs.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
1970 again. What a year for music. One hit after another.
My my my !! Those were the days!! Atlanta Ga!!! August 2022!!! My first love Riley Carter!!! Oh Yes!!!!
