    I'll be 70 yrs of age soon, but this song has never lost it's appeal to me, nor failed to resonate - taking me back to my teen years. My best friend Gene and I tore up the roads of SW Wisconsin, playing this tune on the radio and 8 track. Gene has gone home now, having surrendered to dementia in Nov 2019. RIP Gene, and thank you for your friendship. You were genuine. Blessings on you.

    Such a memorable song. July 1968 basic training San Antonio. This was played at a dance they let us attend and it was our first contact with the women going through basic training too. I’ll never forget this song or the slow dance. The only other song I remember was “Tighten Up’ by Archie Bell and the Drells. Great songs and a great memory of such a dramatic change in my life.

      Yes but it's all adultery. He wants this married woman to sneak away from her husband and make love to him. After that comes the murder, just look at Forensic Files. The jealous spouse murders the unfaithful one, or the unfaithful one murders the faithful one. Happens both ways.

    In July 1983 I met my wife. She was arguably the most intelligent and beautiful woman I had ever met. She was dating another guy at the time and I was a studying for the priesthood at a Russian Orthodox seminary...not the most optimum scenario for a relationship. Anyway, this song (from what I remembered from when I was in 8th grade, fall 1968) gave me courage. 37 years and two kids and two grandkids later, I am still very grateful.

    This song takes me back to my childhood. It was the Summer of 1968. On my mother's day off we would go to Jack's Beach Shack in Galveston, TX & this song was a popular song on the jukebox.
    I didn't know what the lyrics meant at that time. I just liked the song. I asked my mother what does that song mean. She told me one day when you get grown you will understand.
    I do now of course but it takes me back to my younger years.

    This song is one of the BEST "soul" songs I've EVER heard of. Plus the 6th chord in the D flat major chord really adds A LOT of style to the song...and going back to back between THAT chord and the G flat major chord. The 60s and 70s classic soul songs had some of the BEST styles and the way how they did their music.
