[docdoowop]

In French Quebec the French version of this song was a huge hit.

[TheTherese3]

The British Bond style! Petula you got this in many a memory bank.

[ILUVLUCYDESI]

When my mom would put me in timeout I would always sing this as I was waiting for the minute to pass!

[chilliwhiggerE]

Poor Jimmy Page smh.

この曲好きです。本当に＾＾　私もシナトラの曲からこの曲知りましたが、可愛い曲なんですよね­。

ペトゥラとディーン・マーティンがデゥエットしてる動画もよく観­させてもらってます。女性歌手の中でよく聴く一人です。

声やキャラクターが本当に好みです(^^)



[60otaku3]

Naotoshiさん、コメントをありがとうございます！

ディーンマーチンショーでしたっけ？

私も以前その動画を見たことがありますが、ぺトゥラは幼い頃から­ショウビズ界を渡り歩いてきただけあってさすがに舞台慣れしてい­て堂々たるものでしたね。

[zcg3]

She looks like Mrs. Michael Corleone...you know...the Godfather movie!

[40feasty]

such a ooooooooooooooooooold song brought back my childhood--thanx

[60otaku3]

You're welcome, 40feasty-san!!

This song was the breakout for Petula with this song she came to america and just blew us all away She was famous in Britain already but this song put her at a international superstar status. Pet was on every TV station going at the time.! The song was played endlesly on every radio station availible Every one wanted to hear Petula sing this song. She hit us in the head like a brick wall as she belted out this song like no other could . We were amazed it was just the start for her

[haruo542]

60otaku3さん、毎度です（＾＾）この曲は１番好きな曲の­１つですよ。でも・・

ステレオ・ヴァージョンは初めて聴きますよ。UPありがとう（＾­ｖ＾）

[60otaku3]

haruo542さん、こんばんわ。

いつもコメントをありがとうございます！

この歌も長らくモノラルでしか聴けませんでしたが、

最近ではコンピレーション物に収録されているのも含めて

ほとんどがステレオバージョンになっているようです。 

[haruo542]

@60otaku3 かえってステレオ・バージョンの方が良いですね（＾＾）

[charliebubblesoar]

I love this, Petula is terrific. This song also reminds me of Arrested Development.

[661672]

just great

[monksanonymous]

I just saw "Girl, Interrupted" and now i cry every time i listen to this... especially when the horns come in at 2.00.

I have allways loved this song, but now it has a whole new meaning.

Life is beautiful.

[Matto2t]

@monksanonymous

I have seen that movie also as well as love this song. The song is quite catchy, but I don't think the song makes me cry. I think the song is inspiring and uplifting. ;)

[eeuplad]

Made me fall in love in love with English girls!

[coincut]

フランク・シナトラが歌っているのを聴いてからこの曲が大好きに­なりました。

思わずスニーカーに履き替えて街中に飛びだしたくなる、そんな楽­しい曲ですね。

[60otaku3]

コメントありがとうございます！

シナトラのバージョンというと、同じくペトゥラの「コールミー」­などが収録されている

リプリーズ期のアルバムでしょうか。

アレもイイですね。

[Pianopod]

♫ ♥ ♫ I love this song, It reminds me of when I was a child! ♫ ♥ ♫

[nycterrana]

I believe this was Petula Clark's break through song, and it remains as her signature song. You always identify this song with her.

[stilettospikes]

One of the prettiest songs every made. They don't music like this anymore.

[622charlotte]

@stilettospikes

この曲って映画｢17歳のカルテ｣の主題曲に使われてるんですよ­ね。

元々好きな曲だったけど、より好きになった。

映画のラストシーンが目に浮かんで、胸がジーンとします。

[ly10b]

確か英女性歌手初の全米No.1だったと記憶してます。でもそん­なことに関係なく、永遠のポピュラーソングですよね。今でも全然­色褪せてません。

[60otaku3]

コメントありがとうございます！

私もそう思います。

彼女はすでに50年代の初めから英国における人気ポピュラー歌手­でしたが、この歌のヒットを契機に世界的な名声を得ましたね。

当時のロックファンに受け入れられたのが大きかったのでしょう。­

Otaku-san
