[zigsgyrl63]

I remember this album. You can still buy old Vinyls at the old record stores such as Amoeba in L.A

[adwheeler]

Wow! This *REALLY* takes me back! Had a major crush on a girl and we actually danced to this song! Ah, the days of junior high school. That's a real ride in the wayback machine!

[berlygirl123]

I bought one of these jackets!

[skyrye66]

What's so scary is I still know the words! I had to make my Mom buy me one of these Jackets too! I hung up the poster from the album onmy wall and my 2 brothers threw darts at it! I cried to my Mom as they laughed....Good Times(sarcasm)

[modelflyer2003]

Wow, this brings back memories. My brother had this album and was in love with her. We used to call her Kristy McPickle and he would get so mad. LOL.

[RobbyBensonsGirl]

he sounds a like Donny Osmond!!!

[VirginSuicide77]

I have this album too, and it still has the poster inside! Great song! My fave on the album!

[vivandav67]

Love her...hope she's doing well...loved her brother....ahh, the 70's...what a great childhood I had....

[chevylover203]

[diuga1]

No need to laugh to show other you're HIPPER than the song...it's actually a pretty good tune.

[eightiesguy69]

[kevinc419]

Kristy Mcnichol was my hanna montana. This song was a great find on youtube. Now i feel really really old.

[chevylover203]

Was thinking the same thing...My Hanna Montana....I actually Like Hanna Montana, The show cracks me up...The kid has talent.

The Carpenters recorded this song in 1980.  Awesome.

Lisa

[tenglesfoly001]

I am surprised & glad that Carpenters sang this song. I really want to listen to it.

[waarlock412]

I've always liked her voice.shame shes out of the business a celeb who wasn't a legal problem or an out right idiot would be a nice change.

[OutsidersLover12]

totally. i think hollywood was such a great place full of talented people and tabloids, egos and down right morons ruined it for people who were good (Kristy). her leaving because of a stress induced disease proves it!

[tenglesfoly001]

Just now, i found this sweet song. I am intoxicating in this beautiful song. Kristy's voice is unforgettable for me.

[Bijenda]

I remember this album I used to have it! Thanks for sharing it I remember my middle school dayz. I am still a big fan of Kristy & Jimmy too bad they aren't still recording.

[midget916]

I used to have this album too.  I was a big fan. those were the days....

[sweetgirl4JC]

I was four when this came out.

karen Carpenter sang this too :)

[OutsidersLover12]

i love both versions

[browneyedcarol]

So do I... I remember singing this over and over and over!!! Lots of memories...

[OceanKingNY]

Yes, the Carpenters heard this version, liked the song, and decided to record it themselves. It wasn't released until years after Karen's passing, on the "Lovelines" album (1989). You can hear their version here on YouTube.

[bigbulldogwillie]

OMG, I thought I was the only one who bought this LP. :-)

[torchkit]

You and me both. I think I'll go pull out a yearbook.

[patti422007]

It's been 30 years since I heard this song brings back alot of memories.

[mytie67]

G-d, how I miss 1978...
