- - they tell me be sensable with your new love - - don't be fooled thinking this is the last you'll find - - but they've never been in the dark with you -
I'm from Adelaide in South Australia and i am like you all, i so love this song it is so timeless in its message across all generations. I'm 61 now and it touches my heart just as profoundly as it did when I was a teenager. Precious.
@oshitomaha Check & see if there are any clubs that have the fifties or 60's dance nights. If not gather your friends who are like minded & start your own! You are not limited! Go for it. And I am a JOHNNY CONTARDOAHOLIC. Check out Sha na na . He is the lead singer (was). You will love them. On YouTube.
@cajanwitch60 thats a good idea man but there are no clubs around here that have the 50s or 60s dance nights. I've looked. And my friends hahaha they don't dare to listen to this song for a second. They all listen to new crap. I'll see what I can do though. Thanks
@oshitomaha Do you have a weekly penny pincher? Run an add. People from all around still read them looking for a good deal. Just put a little ad in & see what happens. We used to have a Swing club. All 30's & 40's. Katrina did away with half of the beach along the Gulf Coast. Good luch!
My daughter, who is 6 years old heard me playing this song, and came in the room and asked me to play it again. She ended up listening to it three more times. Then she sat in the computer chair and read the comment that said " love this song". She laughed and asked me to type a comment in for her --- so here it is ...... SERENA MITRE LOVES THIS SONG, AND THE WAY HE SINGS!
@TheEsther1949 I was born in 1983 and this is one of my favorites as well, I have also sung it several times at karioke, greatness transends generations!
I was born two years AFTER Mel's timeless recording became a hit, but it's always seemed to me one of the most truly heartfelt pop balads ever. When I caught him performing live on one of those PBS Doo Wop specials it literally took my breath away. Look for a YouTube link of Mel performing it live in 2007 at the Alabama Music Awards.... If anything his voice sounds even better today... What a talent!
I'm 70, and what a shame that my 16 yr old grandson won't have music like this , when it comes time to snuggle up with that special little lady he meets !!! Damn these young kids are getting cheated !!!!!!!!!!
This song was in the movie "We Were Soldiers"...the night before the unit's deployment to Viet Nam....a really strong counterpoint to the battle scenes that followed.
Love this song! Sentimental. I was only three when Mel Carter resurrected this song in 1965. I can see why this was such a hit! He did this song very well.
Please give me your opinion. I sang this in the Finals of Greer Idol competition 2 weeks ago. I don't know how to set up a link but it's at greer idol . com doug allen finals Thanks
yes! this song makes the whole world around me just stop in time..and all the problems slowly melt away:) I aalso think of my sweetheart:) I MISS YOU SOOO MUCH AND I LOVE YOU COURTNEY:)
I have always loved this song...ever since I was a little girl....It takes me back to rides in the car with my grandmother and sitting in the front seat, watching the world around us go by slowly. Thanks so much for posting. LOVE IT!!
Music like this stirs up so many emotions...which is what good music should do. I love the fact that my 12 year-old daughter loves this kind of music.
One of the all time best, memories of slow dancing, first kiss, holding hands at the movies, falling in love....It goes so quick but this takes me right back!! What a song!!Thanks so much for the post!!!
@fff1313 I wish it were that it were that way to. I'm fourteen, and I dread telling my kids that what's on the charts today was my generation's music; its just shameful.
One of those songs that brings back a flood of memories.
Now be honest here how many of you still sing along to this beautiful song!!!
I DO!!!!

Don't be fooled, thinking this is the last you'll find,'
But they never stood in the dark with you love,
When you take me in your arms and drive me slowly out of my mind."
They just don't write lyrics like this anymore. Simply amazing!
