  • Always liked this though it wasn,t all that big a hit. From what David Cassidy says he sang it for his recording audition so it worked for him, too!

  • great post--a very special song.

  • Black Eyed Peas version is better..

  • Why do I love this song? I don't know!

  • Neil has so many "best" songs, it's hard to pick just one.......but this is ONE of my favorites. I told my kids years ago, whether it's appropriate or not, I want Neil Diamond music played at my funeral.

    I have loved his songs since I was a teenager......8 tracks and all.....I'm now 60. Neil lasts forever.

  • @GoddessSeajay I will be 60 on Sept 30th and Neil has been a part of my life & feelings since I was a kid! I know exactly how you feel.I think whatever we want at our funeral is appropriate ,after we have come this far in this crazy world! !

  • oh my .....lord have mercy..i dont think ive ever heard this................finally have, cuz i wanted 2 hear red rubber ball song by the cyrcle and there it was..neil d sang that song too

  • this song is raw and real and the real neil diamond not the commercialised crap the record moguls forced him to do.

    love it thanks for the posting

  • I read somewhere that songwriter Ellie Greenwich, of Brill Building fame, was also one of the backup singers on Neil's Bang material. Neil did a lot with 3 chords back then. --JamDanny

  • One of my favorites Neil, along with about 12 other songs he did... he has alot of kiler songs. The way this song builds towards the end with the backup singers singing "oh oh, oh oh" is awesome.

  • One of his best which you don't hear often enough.

  • Exelente que te puedo decir mira cuando la hizo y como esta vigente. Jose Luis Marziali (argentina)

  • This song was one of mine and my husband's favorites when we were dating in the late 60's this and Solitary Man.We had it on 8 Track and played it on every date in his 65 Pontiac,in a way it seems like yesterday.Thanks for posting beautiful memories for me.x

  • @msstevie1951  8 track! with "factory air" on your Pontiac? great! sal

  • @salchez68 Yes Sal,factory air! But my hubby put the 8 track player in himself! LOL Those were the days,love to go back for just a while! x Donna x

  • @msstevie1951 Geez can I relate to that...never thought finding this song again would have an effect on me, but it does. I have the same story only it was 1970-71 in my ex's parents car...an olds or Pontiac, can't be sure. He even sang part of it to me on one those dates..."I love you so much I can taste it"...best times of our lives.

  • @tangledinblue2000 Yes, they say music is the sound track of our lives, and it truly is! This has to be one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded ♥ Beautiful memories! ♥

  • i love this neil diamond's song, music, voices and arrangments, t e r r i f i c!

  • I only just discovered this one and I love it!

    Great work, thank you. :D 5/5

  • I wish they would put his first two bang albums on CD, its been over 40 years since people could buy this album in a store.

  • This song reminds me of my Mum and Dad....

  • Thank you! What soul!

  • great song I love it it´s my time and my music,thanks

  • Just a simple song,

    but I am sure every one knows what he is talking about.

  • Neil Diamond. just say his name & the praise starts.

  • fjmbond. I am a BIG Diamond fan and I have to admit you are right. In the 60's and early 70s Neil Diamond was a songwriting god when he was with Bang and UNI/MCA. However, as soon as he signed for CBS/Columbia/Sony he underwent a massive change of direction and one has to wonder if that was at the direction of the label's management. He became horribly MOR. You Don't Bring Me Flowers has a lot to answer for. Thankfully, Rick Rubin has now steered Neil back to his rock and roll roots.

  • this is a great song, but somehow somewhere something went awfully wrong with this Neil Diamond, for his later period is true horror!

  • This and "Do It" and every other song from his first album are amazing! I snatched a copy of his first LP on Bang for just $4 on vinyl!

  • This song either kept me sane or sent me over the edge many times as a teenager,love the song

  • ...super ....

  • Thanks for posting, great song...love it.

  • The album shown in the background is Neil's first one, "The Feel of Neil", issued on Bang records in 1966. This song is on this album, but if I recall correctly, the title is shown on the back as "Oh No, No".

  • On the spine of the album cover the LP is called "Solitary Man". His first album had two names

  • fantastic, thanks for posting this

  • i love this!!!

  • I love this song one of my all time favorites. Thanks for posting this song!!!!!!!!!
