  • This song has amazing sound quality. It sounds better than it did on my transistor radio when I was kid in high school. Brings back the best memories of an otherwise miserable high school experience. Thanks Hitch.

  • Thank you Hitch for this song

  • @vcabalda yeahhh! :3

  • Hey now, I'm in my twenties and know what a slide rule, Oldsmobile, wax cylinders and 78s are...due to Google...lol...hope exists for my generation.

  • Thanks for posting this. Haven't heard this one for years. Small nitpick but it's actually from the very late 50s (late 1959) but was still popular through the early 60s.

  • Grab the audio from this track at speedyconversion doht cohm.

  • this song makes me feel good!!

  • If we just love each other

  • What a wonderful classic!

  • hah my gandpa made me a cd with songs from the 60s, this one immediately caught my attention (:

  • Here's the new theme song of the Texas State Board of Education

  • Sam Cooke was simply ... wonderful ... Greetings from Big Hugh of Mundlimup, Western Australia!

  • What IS a slide rule for? Lol... I'll have to google that shit haaaa

  • @jeshikain it's to do difficult calculations, it's like an ancient calculator ;)

  • best song ever

  • I feel this song reflects how I feel currently.. FAR too well. It's comforting to know about 600 000 people feel the same way as me.

  • anyone else remember this from animal house.when bluto is getting his food?!?

  • i wasnt born till '88 but i love this song :)

  • @imabasketcase88 I wasn't born until '94 and I can't go a day without listening to this!

  • @imabasketcase88 i wasnt born till 93 but i love this song

  • I'm a zit. GET IT!

  • RIP SAM

  • It's so obvious to me this is the perfect love song. I listen to it over and over because I love his voice so much but at the same time I feel the same way. Thats what true love feels like. to me. That it doesnt matter what you know or what you'e read but that you love someone and if they love you to you'll have a wonderful life together. Its such a great song. :)

  • This song is exactly how i am.

  • I love this song. I've loved it since I was 5. I wish I was an A student right now :/

  • you're only about as confusing as trigonometry, so I'm confident that things can be figured out amicably. I'm going to go back to school this summer, wish me luck at my second try! I'll be your A student

  • Hmmmm.... I might be wrong... but I think it makes more sense as:

    "Now I don't claim to be an "A:" student... "But" I'm trying to be."

  • @leesagrrl you got it right, they got the lyrics written wrong..."bad", nobody should misquote sam cooke.. good job. 8 )

  • @len0613

    What can I say... I love me some Sam.

    I suggest the box set "The Man Who Invented Soul" to anyone who might be interested in this amazing singer (and songwriter) whose voice was the perfect combination of the sweetest Honey mixed with just the right amount of Whiskey chaser.

  • Das müssen wir in Musik lernen und spielen können!

    In der Musikschule Leibnizschule

    :)

  • animal house!

  • nice & attractive.

  • Sam Cooke

  • Beautiful song! I love this! I'm doing a research project for songs in the 1960's and I thought it would be boring and dull...But These are making me cry! :')

  • Boring and dull? You have alot to learn! ^^

  • What a beautiful song and man! RIP Sam! Thanks for posting. God Bless and please keep them coming.

  • ich komm grad direkt ausm afterhour minimal-electro schuppen und das lied ist einfach geil ;)

    schönen Tag euch allen! und genießt das Wochenende!!

  • Das müssen wir in Musik singen &' so. xD

  • 50 years old but still up to date

  • @Hendy2609 Well, mostly except for that part about the slide rule. Great song though.

  • @ryguy9024 I think a great deal more people these days wouldn't know what a slide-rule is for.

  • @StickWarrior Most kids today would ask "What's a slide rule? Does that have to do with baseball?". But then again, today's generation probably hasn't seen a typewriter or an adding machine. One kid even asked on another video "What's an Oldsmobile?". Makes me feel a little bit old.

  • @MVillani1985 Hey, now. I'm a part of that generation you're speaking of.

    But, don't feel old. It happens with every generation. Parents complain now about kids never using 8-track cassettes or records, I'm sure one hundred years ago, it pissed off parents when their kids didn't rock out to their wax cylinders.

    As for the Oldsmobile comment, find that kid and slap some sense into him. Those are some beautiful cars.

  • @StickWarrior Nice to see another person on here who knows about wax cylinders, most people I've talked to young and old think it starts with 78s. But I think in those days, in seriousness, most people were accepting of the technological changes since they were slow paced enough to adapt. Nowadays, you buy something and as soon as you get it, it's obsolete. Speaking of Oldsmobiles, those were the cars my family used growing up. Great, dependable, well-made cars. Shame they stopped making them.

  • song is timeless, beautiful...

  • @selasie777777

  • You say your taste in music is better than most- I say your fucking ignorant and trying too hard.

    i jus randomly stumbled ova it now i rememba all the times my dad played it.

    lol i love it its so cool

    <3

  • Im 20 and I love this song!

  • I can remember crusing Vancouver Island with a beer in hand and stuff that could have gotten me killed, hitting strip joints and eating pizza until I got quite the belly.....ANYHOW... songs like this I always kept close to my heart, made me cry, and I knew it was stopping me from becoming a complete fucking nutcase.

  • ill tell you guys what happened to music, now i dont favor any time period of music its all good but this music died because the world changed, when the worlds people change so does music. Its sad to lose good music like this but the great thing bout music is that the constant change can lead to great music

  • The thing is as long as there are good people in this, still the good people with a strong mind, independent, old fashioned men and women.

    That are willing to fight for their culture and that world they truly love. That Kind of Music my friend will never die.

    God Bless
