Garage rock has a special place in my heart ❤️ 😭

Sometimes I have to step back and think about how weird the modern world is. I am listening to a song that was released 51 years ago. Everyone involved in its production is either really old now or dead. But here I am, 51 years later, listening to the exact same recording that someone could have listened to in 1965. The singer sounds just like he did 51 years ago, and in 100 years he'll sound exactly the same way he sounds today. The world got really strange, really fast.

I get you. This song kind of facilitates that type of thinking. Its unusually haunting and very hard to believe its the B side to one of their other songs. I think most of us all share one of those girls that we really liked and somehow lost touch with them. The story that could have been I guess. As our lives continue pulling us all into different directions, we lose touch with people, meet new people, and never realize how easy it is to lose contact with those special people.

What a perfect song from the 60s. The song transports me back to the 60s and how much I enjoyed that time period. The songs,my friends,my parents,my sister and brother.

I got hooked on this beautiful, haunting tune when it came out in '65 -it was the slightly odd chord sequence that got me - Em Em C C Am Dm Em Em together with the melody that fits seamlessly into it. Fred

It's so haunting, and so ahead of it's time. The melody in the chorus reminds me of something Nirvana or another melodic 90s band would write 30 years later.

Awoke from a dream about a girl I was good friends with some years ago. I messaged her but the response was cold and to a now stranger. In my dream, she looks like now, and she was picking some things up around the house. We looked out of a window and she hugged me from behind and kissed my back. I turned around and couldn't wait to kiss her. She smiled and knew I couldn't wait for this first kiss. Then I hear a baby crying. And I awake. This has been reoccurring over the past 5 years with her. She truly is the girl who faded away. Every time.

Ah that sounds painful. There's this girl I really like but I think and feel she doesn't like me back for a few reasons. I can't stop thinking about how amazing she is and it hurts me to think she'll fade away as we move away in 6 months despite the fact I currently regularly see her witihin our friendgroup. I ruminate but deep down I realise any sense of constant calm and positive feeling will come from within myself and looking after myself, which I'm neglecting at the moment.

Very hip ,, awesome ,, a great time

It's truly amazing what you can find on KZread. This to me captures the sound of the mid 60's garage scene very well. I was barely old enough to remember it, but the mood is reflective of many of the tunes of that day.

Wow. What a nice little gem.

Always liked how the line could have been "My love for you is so real" or "My love for you is surreal"

[Verse 1] Well, I had a dream last night And you seemed ever so near I dreamt that I was holding you tight And whispering sweet things in your ear [Pre-Chorus] But now the night is through And I find myself still thinking of you [Verse 2] It was a vision of your loveliness Of your sweet face and wondering eyes You'll never come back to me I guess But my dreams keep telling me lies [Chorus] Now when the night is day and you're the girl who faded away [Bridge] My love for you is so real Aah But you'll never know the way that I feel Aa-ah [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] My love for you is so real Aah But you'll never know the way that I feel Aa-ah [Chorus] Well, the night is day and you're the girl who faded away I said the night is day and you're the girl who faded away You know the night is day and you're the girl who faded away

Puff a cigar to the perception and whiskey on the rocks to emotions.

I was listening to some type of melancholy garage psyche and it eventually morphed into this songs and I see it referenced as doo wop. How beautiful, I’ll have to go down a weirdo rabbit hole trying to find songs of similarity

I always come back to this song I loveeee

This and She's Not There by Zombies are a great combo

God this is my favorite song of all time

Сколько раз слушаю, всегда приятно)

Strangely enough it was 90s Hip Hop using Garage samples that got me into this music. I had a J Dilla compilation that featured some tracks and I can see why he dug them. The guitar solo in this is so melancholy and mournful. Great music.

Why this masterpiece is not in spotify

Absolutely love this song!

I understand exactly what you are trying to communicate. This song and so many others from 50 plus years ago were so good that the sounds will live forever.

Love this song ♡

i thought i was so cold, but this feels like its melting my heart.

Much ahead of its time. Great tune!

I can keep listening to this all day to be honest =))))

surreal love ballad fantastically!!

adore this song. 60s garage rock at its finest.

Beautiful song. Thank you for sharing it. ✌💖😊🙏

Good insight into a tune that defies convention a little, and is timeless in its way.

1965 record - still sounds fresh - still sounds interesting and exciting. Thanks for sharing.

This song speaks to my current situation; there's a girl in my school that i find so charming and calming with big wondering eyes but to whom i can't speak or confess my feelings due to my dysfunctional Asperger personality. If only i could, in a way, make her listen to this song to know how i feel before she fades away~

yeah this is a gem of a tune with haunting vocals & great backing harmonies that make it a deep experience.obviously about the girl that faded away sadly we have all had a few of those experiences but hopefully when you finally get some your journey is complete lol.but yeah 50 odd years later still a great tune & great band top post peace...

I do love a nice humming refrain.

cool album cover and cool song title alot of bands in england made songs like this it was common then

I hate how I can relate to this song so strongly rn. No, I don't love her though, but just the way the song seems like an apparition. Never see her again but she's always in my sleep.

quite nice, the guitar solo is excellent.

What a nostalgic binge of amazing music.... my ears thanked me :)

"My love for you, is so real. But you'll never know the way that I feel. " true story 🖤

Obvious precursor genre to both Punk and Black Metal at least if not Indie Rock aswell. Very forward thinking music,still feels vibrant decades later.

I loved you Autumns! I wish I could have been better for you and your Brother! Be good !! Be nice!! Be generous!! Be strong!! Be brave!!

Very good; sounds very much like “Everybody’s Been Burned” by the Byrds, which wouldn’t come out for another 2 years (1967)!

This is really a great song. They should have had more backing to be on top.

Joe Triplett, Thank you so much for giving us your insight and for your contribution to this beautiful song. I didn't discover The Hangmen/ Reekers until later in life, but I'm so glad I did. Please feel free to tell us more about Tom and the group and thanks again for this gem and many others such as "Everytime I Fall in Love" and "Don't Call Me Flyface!"

I realized this is the music I love.

Such an amazing song ❤️🖤

Soñé que te estaba abrazando fuerte Y susurrando cosas dulces en tu oído Pero ahora la noche ha terminado Y me encuentro todavía pensando en ti Fue una visión de tu belleza De tu dulce rostro y ojos asombrados Supongo que nunca volverás a mí. Pero mis sueños siguen diciéndome mentiras Ahora cuando la noche es día y tú eres la chica que se desvaneció

Interesting song, it’s pretty dark. I like it.

(dmetl) #121 - at the end of that video by the hangmen ... neat scene with the band members standing behind what looks to be streams of spaced cloth ... was an almost haunting look

Flipside of their monster hit, _What a Girl Can't Do,_ which, as I recall, was #1 for 4 straight weeks, locally here in the DC metro area, knocking The Beatles out of the top spot. (Was it _She's a Woman,_ or _Eight Days a Week_ that was displaced?) Memory checks welcome here ;-) Fred

Hi Eloise, Thank you for the enlightenment. Ireally must of been "in the fog" on that!! I did a lot of reading an now understand just how popular "The Hangmen" were in their day in The States. Knocking "The Beatles" out of the top spot in their own state....sharing the same show stage with my number 1 hard pop band "The Animals"......and having to deal riots when performing....certainly sounds like a party. So I am sorry for my blunder and I thank you for my new addition to my play list.

They were a Washington DC band who were more popular than the Fab Four for a snap shot in music lore en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Daly_(music_executive)

So strange cause i have a hard time guessing if it says "my love for you is surreal or so real" Anyway, both ways are beautiful

One of the best composition .Beatles number two.

Such a beautiful and haunting song... did you ever seen the other version of the song that had been posted up as The Reekers that had some footage from Vertigo ( the song and the footage was perfect with each other )? It was taken down and the version ( same band, different name ) was even spookier, not quite as polished as this...

Why isn't this song on Spotify? There's another hangmen group, but from LA and the 80s

Only true seekers find the hidden treasure🫵🏻

If we could fu*k the song, I would choose this one! 🧠⚖️🫀
