Me.

I'm 70 years old but when i listen to this song it brings back some lovely memories.

What a great song. It came out in 1973. Little did I know it would come true for me one day. Although it took a lot more than one summer. I met Penny when I was 16, and she was 30. It was the summer of 1977. We eventually ended up working the vast majority of our EMS careers together as EMT/Paramedic partners for decades. We were a great team on and off duty, building a successful life together. I knew Penny for 43 great years. We lived together for 30 years, married 15 of them (I was her second husband). Unfortunately, she passed away suddenly in May 2020. I can tell you they don't women like Penny anymore. I love and miss you, my wonderful wife. But life goes on. What wonderful bitter sweet memories this song brought back for me.

Amazing song - bringing back wonderful memories - if only we could go back to those happier times.

I came close to a friend of my mum at a party in our house, i wish we had done it, I'll never forget that day.

She was by far the prettiest girl at work and i was the immature scruff who doted on her. everyone wanted her, but she chose me, 46 years ago. I still miss her. cc. x

This video makes me feel very emotional. It happened to me in 1974. I eventualy found her 40 years later and we are good friends to this day.

The summer of 1942 was a great period piece of a film and I love it so much. It is so bitter sweet that it hurts, but I can’t stop watching. I bought it on Prime, my guilty pleasure, to watch a bygone age. My 83 year old mum loves it too x

Totally agree,and I'll bet you will agree with me on this. It reminds me of "A Summer Place" with Sandra Dee and Troy Donohue. The movie 🎥 isn't considered a masterpiece/academy award winner by critics,but it's almost a symbol,and an anthem for an era that can never be duplicated again,and now it,and it's theme song have become legends in music and filmlore timepieces.

Never mind "not knowing what to do or say when you're young" I STILL don't know what to do or say even NOW in old age🤣. Anyway, great classic song, one of the deepest and best songs ever put together. Many thanks.

This song brings back memories for me. I was 25 living a block away from the beach, Huntington Beach CA. I had just got home from work. It was a overcast cloudy day. For some reason, something inside me was telling me to go down to the beach. I went down, it was deserted. I was just hanging out watching the surf. Then way down the beach to the south of me. I saw a figure walking my way. The figure was too far to even see if it was male or female. As it got closer, I could see it was a female. But she was still to far away to see much of her other then she had silky long dark hair. Trying not to look at her make her feel weird. I looked out at the ocean. Then I heard a woman's voice. I turned to her, looked at her. She was a gorgeous woman with a warm perfect smile. We talked and laugh for close to a half hour enjoying each others company. Then she said she had to get heading home. I ask if she lived far away. Just my luck. She lived on 11th st. The same street as me, but closer to the ocean. I walked her home. When we got to her place. She said: Wait here for a minute, I'll be back out. She came out handed me her phone number. Ask that I call her before I went over. She was a beautiful woman, I will never forget her. I can only remember her first name was Cindy.

I love this song and I'm 66. I heard this song as a young man and it inspired some background for 4 characters I was writing about. They were kind of like Young Detectives or something. Hardy Boys inspired, but more physical. They all had their own fighting styles. I know no one cares. The 4 guys were Chinese, White, Black, and Latino. The Black guy was named Billy Ray.

I knew the recording engineer on this track. He was worried about the orchestra arrangement, that high pitched sound at the beginning. I think it gives it the perfect feel.. sizzling 👍 great job Ernie Winfrey RIP brother🙏

Perfect production. You can feel the overcast heat, and a slight breeze rocking the front porch seat.

Heard this song many times and saw in another site that someone commented on what if it was the other way around! Who cares Men go after young woman all the time so why cant woman. 17 isn't that young way back in buggy days they were married off younger than that.

Every young boy dream, a beautiful woman in a sad situation ready for love.

Still a classic Bobby legend!!

I still love this song.

Always takes me back to the summer of 1973 ,wonder were Sharon is now ,she was pretty ,but i was so shy back then
