    I was 10 years old when this came out. Back then our school busses had am/fm radios and I got to listen to this going to school. I miss the 70's.

    In the late sixties there was a high school group believe it or not that made the charts. Their name of the group was called The Left Bank or Banke. The song was Walk Away Renee. Kids this age were a breath of fresh air, just sayin'!😉

    Very nice reaction. You might recall this as the 3rd song on one of the greatest soundtracks of all time - from Guardians of the Galaxy. (The 2 songs before it were: Hooked On A Feeling by Blue Swede & Go All The Way by The Raspberries.)

    This song has been getting some play on Streaming Series lately. In the TV Series "Jack Reacher" Jack Reacher is in mortal combat with a Cartel hit man on a fire escape and Reacher strangles the guy and hangs him from the rail of the fire escape with this song playing in the back ground "FREAKIN AWESOME" In the series "Big Sky" The Wolves Are Always Out for Blood (2021) There is a country band playing this song at a memorial party. Pretty Cool

    Hey great reaction 🙂 Just a note: This song was intended as a piss take on the surging evangelical movement at the time. Note the lyric 'I'm not a sinner; I never sinned' as a dig at the hypocrisy of the movement.

    Hearing the Musak version of this walking through the airport between flights was no fun. It was the 70s and there had been a few skyjackings and air disasters. It seemed like a sick joke, hearing that in the airport.

    Funny song for a non-christian to write.... made him a few $$$'s
    I'm sure you have heard this in a movie or something.
    1970 year I was born.
    Key is always the same find something catchy.
    Still want to see the Ted Nuggent reaction.

    You may have heard this song before as it was covered by a band called Dr & The Medics who took it to number one in the charts, back in 1986. It's a good version but Norman's is the best. Great reaction mate!

    Date is wrong ... this was my favorite song back then and it was put out in 1969 not 1970 and i know for a fact for in 1969 we moved and was the first time i heard it and because it was the year the my grandparents died so i know it was 1969 for a fact.
