[lepoetress]

Has a reggae feel to it. His or GQ's version ..... it's STILL a great song!

[Wafuller]

The real and original Ruben Studdard.

[TheAdisah]

We had the 45 of this.

[death7849]

[Topflap]

@death7849 OMG YES YOU DO

[TheKustom59]

@death7849 Good choice of music. Rap pollutes the mind.

[mississippisheik1]

I used to hear his early stuff on KGFJ out of LA in the 60's. When Georgie Fame from England came out with this song on his album, Yeah, Yeah, I knew that limey knew his stuff...

[backnlove]

I love Billy Stewart! Has anyone else ever, ever, had a style this great? I am just discovering him, still I can say that I miss him! Rest in Peace, your songs touch my heart.

[theslimmy8]

I was going through my teenage dating angst. This song brings back so many memories.

[flugalsweetness]

The original Fat Boy, RIP Billy, Heavy D

[cduluk]

[sammy2010888]

Chicago's very own. God bless your soul.

[cavemanyc]

I did not understand the 60's what the hill is wrong with us. Color what is it. may does it matter? Did not understand it then or now. Billy Stewart thank you

[Liquidmetal14]

I may have posted on this already but this song is great beyond words. So simple and meaningful.

[jose17377]

[ShaunFrere1]

Reminds me of bricklaying at Churwell Park, Morley. They were the best working days of my life, back in 1987. Great memories. Where did those days go? Peace and love to all.

[SSlartibartfastII]

Makes me miss her <3.

[mberbae]

Love makes fools out of most of us. Might as well have a great song to keep us

company.

[MultiJedimaster]

reminds me of a few months ago i waited for this girl for like thw whole day outside her house she never called or texted back :/ sometimes i think of myself as a fool for still loving her n forgiving her

[deloresbyron02]

This a beautiful song that Billy Stweart sings. The other members that perished alongside him were my uncle Norman Rich, William Cathey and Ricco Hightower. What a major loss.

[Nickie0016]

I LOVE YOU BILLY!!!!

[lorrieluvlilwayne]

I FREAKEN love diz song it reminds meh of my mom -N- dad(: I LOVE YOU GUYSSS LOTSSS MUUAHHHHHHHHHH ;-*

[enadriley]

This is my cousin Billy Stewart from Wash, DC. Billy was a Chess Recording artist in the 50's and 60's and was discovered by Bo Diddly, and his uncle Calvin (Hound Dog) Ruffin. Billy wrote and recording the 60's hits "I Do LoveYou" and this classic "Sitting In The Park". Billy died in 1970 when his vehicle plundged into the Neuce River in NC along with 3 of his band members. I am proud of my Family's Music History-Recording Artist Dane Riley

[blkpanther08]

@enadriley Thanks for giving the back history..You had a very talented member of your family, may he rest in peace with the ancestors..He left us way too soon, I hope he was not one of those artist who was cheated by Chess records out of his royalties..

[enadriley]

@blkpanther08 - Thanks, it is much appreciated. I also remember when I was about 5 or 6, sitting on the floor at the end of the piano while Billy rehersed all of these cool songs. I have great memories. Peace!

[GarwinEugeneW]

he does favor Bobby Hemmitt

[Marsharees]

Such sweet music. RIP Billy... I still feel it, after all these years...

[kidhighlight15]

omg this my jam tho aha oldies r raw tho they shuld be liked no matter how old u r

[curehead]

4 dislikes! how can you hate this?!

[Thegreatjoker13]

@curehead because they dont LISTEN to music like we do... They just HEAR it n NOT LISTEN to it... Im happy that my mom stood her ground when i was a kid n wanted to change the radio in the car... Now i just cant stop listening to the music...

[hollyweird8]

Sometime near the year 1968 our band the Soulville All Stars was the opening act for Billy at a club called THE RAVEN in Chambers Hill...outside of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I was in the dressing room talking with Billy only 5 minutes before he went onstage. He wasn't at all concerned about himself. He saw that I was excited about being in the opening act and he tried to calm me down by asking questions about me.

He is the nicest person I've ever met! GOD BLESS BILLY FOREVER

[jdpatterson100]

get the wine and let,s go down on the corner and sing "Sitting in the park". those were the days.RIP to BillY,and all my 'Lil Hoodlem friends.....StonieDogStl.

[IRONMANHONDO87]

One of the greatest songs in the history of soul music.

[uma1r]

decent version,,,still prefer georgie fame

[rayx88]

@uma1r You might be alone on that one.

Even all the Brits I know prefer this original

version. But I guess every person hears

music from their own perspective.

[birchply023]

memory lane ,i love this song ,makes me think of my baby

[bobbyaustin1]

ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARTIST.I WAS ABOUT 14 WHEN THIS SONG CAME OUT.

I LOVED IT THEN AND JUST AS MUCH NOW! RIP BILLY.

[poopywhoopycheezy]

HAHAHAHA the best part is when he turns purple

[MrPowerbrokers54]

SUCH AN AWESOME MELODY

[JayRealLovesDancing]

Omg Omg Omg. AWESOME song... I hate it when my friends my age dont like Oldie's. (Teenagers)

[Eddy9709]

2 ppl that disliked this, were left sitting in the park waiting

[bozo20tozo1]

Billy brings back many memories living in NYC where guys would sing his songs under the street lights on the corners and yes the blue light parties. All pure and innocent. He is like the other side of Barry White

[dagtune1]

sitting in the park waitting for FOOD! ?

[freein2339]

@dagtune1 Waiting for "you"...get miracle ear...

[pinkstew1981]

Good afternoon fans, Billy stewart is my grandfather and i have created a facebook fan page for him. Please look him up and become a fan... Thank You

[domm1999]

PERFECT, that's the only way to describe this song. Love the Hammond B3 Organ/Leslie backdrop behind Billy, AMAZING song, AMAZING artist.......this song is now the standard for Carolina's Beach Music....RIP Billy Stewart

[TheBencast3001]

love this song....... ALOT

[9876543217303]

They played this at a graduation party. All night. By then, I was a die hard fan of Mr. Stewart. It started with Strange Feeling and I Do Love You. I had the privilege of seeing this man perform in person at the Regal more than once. OMG, he was dapper, suave and had his own band. He jammed. Someone tried to insult him and call him a name. Fool. Mr. Stewart tore him down so bad, I still cringe! Hollah. Thanks for the upload.

[catblack10]

Seriously Cool

[Dev17cmd]

Kurious- Sittin in my car

[dirtydiana423]

I love this song!

[ziggyman65]

[IkaikaLocS]

[asther113]

Their style of writing music, is not forgotten-I want to see the other side of the hill too.

[ImNotYourFriend212]

I love this song so much. (20 year old. Pretty much grew up on my moms music stash).

[redd559]

[TheSamuraiXX011]

If any guy sang this to me, my heart would melt XD

very good song. thanks for educating the masses :)

[papairie54]

@TheSamuraiXX011 I'd sing to you .

[powerbrokers54]

Billy you are the BEST !

[joshua626]

Its so funny they had alot of true heart felt like songs back in the day and what I cant seem to get is that the world in the 50's 60's were dark grim and on the verge of total destruction of the world with wars and nations fighting for freedom across the globe.

And people talk about 2012. HA!

The only thing I can say is that god wrote those songs to make sure we didnt tip

over.

[soulsolution99]

pure harmony....classic

[JupiterNetwork]

[stephenmusicman]

[stress92]

I heard a rumor that he's really saying sitting in the bar, but they had to change the title to "park" for censorship reasons...anybody know if that's true??

[redblugreenjello]

oh my lord.. and i thought this was slick rick... my my... eyes opened.. this is pure Dope

[kdd3051]

@redblugreenjello Who is slick rick? I had Billy Stewart 45 rpm's back in the 60's and have loved this song for about 45 yrs now. It floors me that this song is STILL dope (to use your word) so so many years later and that I had the taste to buy his records and appreciate his beautiful voice and talent at the wee age of 15/16 yrs old.

[cedennis1]

So nice... part of the soundtrack of my life. Thanks for posting!

[TheJenjen78]

Love u Michael!!!!

[domialad]

Lyrics plz?

[motron44]

Miss U Billy

[Larrygallis]

oldies but goooodies :D!!

[iloveyoumikey09]

i so love oldies..i miss being a kid and listening to my mom, uncles and aunts just kicking back havin a good time..

[theigneous]

slick rick - sitting in my car!

[SARaider33]

Classic! That's all I'm gonna say about that.

[mahmoudshilleh]

fuk vato tht shitttt makes mee wanna cry n shit i luv my rucca at hoem!

[URANUSWORLDSHAKING]

i wanna dedicate this to my father and grandpa may they RIP-also one of my favorites to just kick back 2 at a cook-outs...`Not just oldies, Killer oldies' .I'll miss them always and forever!!!

[arville49]

I love oldies, I only wish that it was videos back in the day

[kdd3051]

@arville49 I understand how you feel, however, on the other hand we would listen to songs (like this beauty) and visualize what we wanted. In my opinion, much, much better. A song would remind you of something that was happening when you first heard it, so you could relive it. Usually a cute boy. ha ha

[AKSANCHEZ123]

i love oldies,

[iradread]

A lot of reggae artists remake this song. Of course..nothin is better than the original

[blondiex46]

love all of Billy's songs, wish they had done videos then!!

[haydster89]

ahh, i absolutely love this song

does anyone know any producers that have sampled this? that sound amazing.

[lolsmileyface3001]

i love this song :D

[rayjr62]

@soulmziklova And do you know who his drummer was? Maurice White, of Earth, Wind & Fire fame.

[MochaButtaflye]

My dad loves this song. That's how I came to love it. And he sounds great. I love that piano, my ears can hear a piano in any song.

[MochaButtaflye]

I would love for a guy to sit in the park and wait for me. Although he seems like he's getting tired of waiting for this chic, he seems like he'd still wait. *sigh* How romantic. I hate this guy died.

[lotty506]

My adolescence. About 13. Yes in deed.

[motron44]

WOW................Miss you Billy

[s23god]

@champishome

...? weird ahha

[LarrEEE]

@champishome And why exactly are black men gods???
