i honestly think this is why relationships don't last as long as they used to. when music like this was around couple's listened to it and fell in love all over again. music is so important. it ignites the flame that was slowly dying. I will always listen to this music.

it is true, what you say...it has kept me feeling very much in love with my man, even thru the times when I thought I was ready to hang it all up and walk away...love is a great personal investment, in my opinion, and after 20+ years there's a whole lot to lose if that investment is allowed to slip away...nope! I am in it for the long haul and no matter what we've seen or been thru, I wouldn't trade it for the world, and I definitely WOULD do it all again.

I’m 25 and can’t stand today’s music. But Dean Martin and Bob Crosby, the four tops and the four seasons, beatles and beach boys, eagles and CCR. These are my tunes. I grew up listening to kono 101.1. What use to be the oldies station in my area. Now they play more 80s and 90s stuff. IMO that’s when rock and roll started on the down beat. Same with country. That died in ‘05.

I’m not old enough to be married but this song. I have never. Ever. Cried over a song so much in my entire life. This song. My dad used to sing this to me every night before bed and we would slow dance together. And I remember having to stand up on my bed so that I’d be tall enough to hug him. And now this song just means so much to me. I grew up with this song. Hearing it for the first time in probably about ten years really just hit me like a sack of bricks. I hope one day I can sing this to whomever I get married to and make it an even more special song

We found an old empty lot close to his house, and we would talk about our future together. We eventually got married and then tragedy struck, he was killed 6 months later! This song is so very special to me!

Same is true for their art. They are money grubbers, but that's nothing new and there's less money out there to chase. People are over-obsessed with their nothing electronics, but I don't think they are rude generally.

There were two Boomer groups, The first and the Echos. The Echoes were late 50s to 64 and we thought the earlier Boomers were nuts to.

There really are two groups of Millennials to, the first and second groups. Second group is in College now like my Daughter. Most book smart folks you will ever know and not a ounce of street smarts. But they do seem to be able to learn from their mistakes so we may be OK with them down the road. :)

If I don't particularly care for a performer, I will scroll through him/her. Just my two cents.

Takes me back to a time that's gone forever. We remember songs that help us remember moments

The best. Everytime I listen to this. It gets better and better

One of the most romantic songs ever recorded. Released on June 11, 1977, reaching # 10 on October 22. Thanks for the memories.

First time I heard this classic was on American Bandstand ! Thank you Dick Clark

Listening and remembering this buckle polishing song! ❤❤❤❤

Listening to this makes me think of THE ONE that I let get away. And I was too young and dumb to realize it at the time. Miss him……💔💔

Truly a beautiful song, and no one can sing it like Johnny Rivers. I remember dancing to this song at a high school dance when I was a sophmore and girls were still a magical mystery, soft, warm and they smelled SO good. Us guys were GUYS, girls were GIRLS, and we guys were very happy with that arrangement. Miss those days so much!!

I regret not marrying my first love. I would never trade my kids just which they were with him. I loved him and he loved me but things happened and I was a fool. I fantasize about him dream of him. So many songs remind me of him. He’s was the only true love I will have. It’s been 26 years and I never forgot him and I never will

Songs like this makes me wish we could replay the 70's in real life, always loved this song.

We need musicians like this today. I wish I could have attended a Johnny Rivers concert.

We will never have this great music again :(

Beautiful love song. The younger generation has no idea what they are missing.

I'm 26 and this is one of the best songs I've ever heard.
