Great post, thanks. And a terrific song which is well strong enough to take lots of interpretation. Try the version by Jimmy and David Ruffin together - spine-tingling.
HE MENTION MOST OF THE GREAT SOUL SINGERS OF YESTER YEAR ,LONG LIVE THE GOOD OLD SIXTIES WITH ALL OF GREAT MUSIC AMD SOME FOLKES THAT KNEW HOW TO WRITE,PLAY MUSIC INSTRUMENTS,AND SANG THE DARN SONG
As an 18 year old white boy in B'ham, AL I loved this song and the classic songs and singers it referred to. I still love it today as a 63 year old white boy! Great music will last forever!
Even though I am 13 years old, this song is beautiful. What time period was this song made? I may be mistaken, but is it around late 50s early/mid 60s?
@DeathLeftHid Hey there. Glad you enjoyed the song. The song was released in November 1966. The original version recorded by the great Ben E. King was released in 1961.
I was in a bar in downtown Saigon when someone played this song. I looked at the Jukebox and almost had a heart attack... Turner and I grew up in pretty much the same neighborhood in NY. He was about3 or 4 yrs older than me, I believe I met him once before I shipped off to Viet Nam. I haven't heard this song in 42 yrs...thanks so much for posting it.
My Godnesssssssss, I was searching this version a long time ago.......... god bless
Spyder............... I heard it in a radio program when i was a teenager............. i redorded it a a cassette, but i lost it. Now I'm hearing it again....... times has change from that times. So much time, i feel im other person, far away, but the songs is the same, the voice is the same and i feel sure that im the same crazy teen.
this again was one of the alltime best stand by me.i love it

I remember listening to this song on the radio during my junior high and high school years back in the 60's. This is my favorite version.
