    I"m 62 years old and have been alone for many years, but every time I hear this song I am taken back to those moments when I was still a young man and I kissed the love of my life for the first time...and the last time I kissed her. I lost her finally in 1982. I have always loved her. I always will. And that is enough. Those memories of her--of us-- will live in my heart until I breathe my last.

      Bobby was doing this song " live" on the Andy Williams show in 1965, a live performance with no autotune, one take. What a god given voice bobby had. A very blessed individual. Any song that he sang, he put his own "spin" on it. He is dear l y missed after all these years, we are fortunate that we have the 🎶 to still listen too.

      Well the masterpiece was the entire song and production. Certainly his vocal performance was magic, and in a class of its own, but it's best appreciated with that production and musicians backing it. I couldn't imagine that wonderful vocal being without it. That together, makes up the song we love.

      I'm 64 and Never had a love in my Life. EVERY time I hear this i imagine what it must be like to have someone to.feel that way about. I wish I could experience that before it's too late. I'm jealous of all of you; but, i am glad you got to experience that with another real, live person and not just a fantasy.

      @@robertwhite8528 I understand what you're saying, but I don't know that what I've dealt with is better. I met this guy in middle school and we "went steady" for three years. We split up, each got married to others, had children and went through divorces. We then met up again and we were together for two and a half years. When I found out he was cheating on me, I split up with him again. The only problem was that, for me, he was the one. That was over thirty years ago and my heart still hurts. I dated others, but he was still it. Even though he's now deceased, I still love him. I always wanted a forever relationship. I didn't get it either.

      Yes pawekwaitkowski, that film was done in 1990. They did use Bobby version the sound track, even though he did do that same song live on Andy Williams program in 1965. With no autotune, a one take performance. What a blessed individual with such a range of vocals. He was considered a tenor/contratenor. He is dearly missed.

    This was my sister and brother-in-law’s first dance as husband and wife. I cry when I hear this because my sister passed away recently and brings those memories back. I love you so much sis, my heart is broken and my life is shattered. You are finally happy, free, and no more pain. RIP my beautiful sister.

      I agree. I hope you are all safe too. I hope that this pandemic brings us all closer and that people realise we all need each other. No man is ever an island. There's too much hatred, division, violence, poverty and war in the world. I hope we all come out the other end of this a better society/world with a better sense of community and communalism. There's so many people out there risking their lives for us all, not just the amazing health workers, but also the people that take our trash away, the postal workers, all those that stock shelves, make the food, distribute it, all those that help bring us electricity and water etc Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for all you do for us daily, silently and bravely. Whether you believe in politics, no matter what your political affiliation, let's come out of this better, stronger & more aware of how interlinked we all are. Time to put away the world's swords and maybe build some ploughs and demand more authenticity from our societies, our politicians and and I hope we remain humane after this towards our fellow human beings, no matter what their colour, 'race', religion. We all bleed. We should all stand together for a better world for ALL of us. It makes me weep every time I hear someone has died, each life is precious, NOT a statistic, and I want to honour all their memories by helping to create a better world for future generations. Wow, sorry for the polemic...just feel emotional these days. Please all stay safe, take care of yourselves and those around you and thank all those who are performing miracles of kindness daily. I'm not religious, but if angels exist, you are amongst us and so thank you for all you do. Love to all. 💛🧡💜 And for anyone who has dared to abuse our doctors, nurses, carers - you are a disgrace to your community and country and the world you live in.

    My mother and fathers song. My dad listens to it most days while he sips his coffee in the front rooms, on the sofa, chain smoking, doing nothing until I come out and hang with him or come home from work.
    This song, among others from this era are my parents favourites -- my mum is suffering from Parkinsons-Dementia and was forced into a nursing home (by the gov) mid last year. Home hasn't been the same without her. Dad is so sad, and always is just that.
    I have a feeling it'll be their last Christmas together this year because her brain is 70% dementia 30% reality and we are at the point where both are constant. Add that with her Parkinsons Disease..
    Sorry for going on. Its just this song represents 50 years of marriage, and much more. I miss my dear mum before her dementia, but I feel even more sorry for my father, a 75 year old who can't comprehend life without his wife 😢 Until recently, I never knew what my father as a sad man, until now he has been the man of the family and didnt show emotion -- now, i know that my mum was the reason why he always was as he was.
    Anyway.. take care, everyone -- greetings from the snowy mountains, Australia

      It is. It's humanities landmark. This has earned its place on our recorded history.

    Obviously I came here from FF1970. But when I asked my Grandma if she knew this song, she proceeded to tell me that it was her and my grandpa's favorite song to dance to❤️
