Wow! This is one song that brings me back to my younger days..I can listen to this song over and over again. My first slow dance music....I loved it then and love it now. How I still get goose bumps whenever I listen to this song.
I WONDER, DID FLOYD SINGLE HANDEDLY CREATE THIS SLIDE SOUND OR HAVE OTHERS DONE THIS BEFORE HIM. I CANT RECALL. ALL I KNOW IS HE IS A PURE MASTER AND WHAT A FINE SONG
This guitar is outstanding for this price range. I am rating it a 4 as there could have been a touch better quality control. After receiving this I had to tighten a few things and the neck nut was one of them and this is important with a Floyd Rose. If you want closer action, the neck will probably need setup by your local guitar ...

Amazing song. I grew up listening to Floyd Cramer along with all the other great legends. Would love to see someone bring back the good sound of country music, they just don't do it today like they used to.
Years ago in Kansas City, Missouri was a great piano player Johnny Foster, I think...had a fantastic rendition of Last Date, heard he passed away during a hurricane in Texas...a great talent lost.
My daddy used to play this everynite to go to sleep when I was a little girl. I cry every time I hear it. Love you DAD and thanks Floyd for the beautiful song.
Reminds me of my boyhood and staying with my grandparents in Plainview Texas. My grandad loved this song and played it on the record player. Gosh I miss those times.
the late Floyd Cramer was one of my three piano idols grwing up. never could play like any of them. the only one alive is Jimmy Jimmy Swagart. Floyd used to play on a nuber of Elvis recordings.
I soooo remember this haunting song...does anyone out there remember another instrumental similiar ...seems like it had 'Saturday' in it..it was great too...would sure appreciate it if u could help me out with this....
This brings me back to my Nani's kitchen when I was little and we would dance over and over to this song....sweet sweet memories for me.......I absolutely LOVE it!!!!
This recording evokes such a striking mental image of a time and place, and, I suspect, does so for a generation or two. Those my age and older will understand.
This Reminds me of my Grandpa, i used to sit on his lap when i was a baby listening to this song while drinking Coffee with him, im 23 now, and am still drinking Coffee to this, but i have to do it without my Grandpa. I miss You Pa.
I loved this song as a kid. I always thought it was the most beautiful piano playing ever. I still do 50 years later. This brings back great memories. thanks for posting.
This brings back many memories of when I was a young soldier in Germany in 1960, sitting in the NAAFI with lots of great mates, sadly some of them are no longer with us, I remember you all boys, what a great bunch you were
My late hubby loved this one. When we were driveing & this came on - he would reach over & turn it up & hold my hand. Needless to say I love listening to this.
when I was a little boy, 5 yrs. old, my parents would allow me to listen to the radio before falling asleep,this song the last date was eched in my brain. My family was living in Leadville CO. in the middle sixties. I told myself I will remember this great soft and haunting song for the rest of my life. And still today, when I hear this song, I close my eyes and it brings back to 1966. You will always be remembered Floyd. Thanks
Bravo!Jamais j'aurais pensé retrouver cette musique dont je ne connaissais que l'air mais pas le titre ni même le nom de l'interprète;je n'avais pas entendu cette musique depuis 47ans!!!!C'est vraiment une bonne surprise.Merci.
This was our wedding dance, and a favorite song of my Dad's. Both the marriage and my Dad are gone, but this tune evokes great, happy memories every time I hear it!
Well i'm sure you're a wonderful person and if you were gone so many people would miss you. I sometimes think the same way myself but then i know that people would miss me and that it just isn't worth it because i know i am an intelligent, funny, caring and loving person. So why waste all of that?
Several people have set lyrics to this song and several singers have recorded it. Only Emmylou Harris comes close to the original in my opinion, singing lyrics by Conway Twitty. Two very talented people and mostly they proved that this song is _supposed_ to be a Floyd Cramer instrumental.
@WillInNewHaven Emmylou Harris is singing the "answering," lyrics to Conway Twitty's version, from the girl's point of view. So, either male or female can lay claim to the words.
this is the song I'm going to use when my daughter gets married and we dance our dance,my mother would hum this song when i was very young thanks for posting it.
This song will always have a most special place in my heart. My soulmate and I danced to this song under the stars in one of the most romantic places on earth.
I lost my dad 12 years ago. I went to see him today to put an American flag on his grave and talk to him a while. I still miss the hell out of him and my mom.
@RAYNEALAVERY I can remember as a kid riding in the car with my dad, this would come on the radio, my dad really liked it, he's gone now, what I wouldn't give to just take one more ride with him again.......I miss him
I REALLY REALLY wish that if people wish to argue, slander and match wits with each other or among themselves, that these individuals would do so on each others' sites. It's so crude and tawdry posting this type of thing on a song.
@quahitis This was my dad`s favorite too, he loved playing it on the organ and also in the car..lol. Gotta love those old 8-track tapes..wow where did all the years go.
I see left-wing lunatics can't sit back and enjoy great music without forcing their political beliefs on others. Liberalism should be classified as a mental illness. It's a disease of the mind. It's truly scary how hate-filled and backwards people who are self-professed, "progressives" can be. Who cares if someone is a Christian or not? That is their personal choice and if you disagree with it that's just too bad for you.
@willieraye Mr. Willie are you a Christian? Let's make America great again by returning to the Christian principles and Conservative values that the founding fathers had in mind. Join us. BELIEVE
@MrHomosforHellwig Most Christians I know are hateful, angry, low-intelligence people who think violence is the solution to everything. Don't put the founding fathers in with that lot. They were very progressive men for their times and most were wary of religion.
@petey1892 Well then dipshit,you don't know many REAL Christians do you. All liberals I know are ignorant of history and can't see past their own noses. There is FAR,FAR more hate and violence associated with Liberalism than with Christianity.You are a real idiot.
@petey1892 So in other words you're saying the Founding fathers fought,bled and died to give us independence and sovereignty and created the Constitution so that it could be shredded,twisted and basterdized by people like Obama and his moronic minions.Too bad Hitler didn't hate the progressives the way he did the Jews.
@petey1892 Why don't you read up dumbass! And not one of your college "history" books,edited by people like you.By the way,I'm not a devoted Christian,but I see those who are getting shit on by cocksuckers like you and I want to use my aggression to stomp your faggot faces in.Yes, I do hate people like you the way people like you hate christians.Why is it that Christians are "hate filled",but turds like you can hate any and everything that you don't agree with.We will eviscerate you fucks.
@tkirklocke You are clearly a very sick, twisted, hate-filled individual. You should seek some help before you shoot up some bystanders or beat up some little children. Seriously.
@tkirklocke Yup. Gotta love those "Christians" who wanna "stomp" and "eviscerate" people The committment laws need to be changed in the US. People like tkirklocke belong in mental hospitals, pronto.
The absolute best piano love song of all times.!!! 1965.. I was 17 yrs old , in love..w/a solider..about to go to Germany..He asked me to wait for him, I knew I couldn't. Broke my heart to say goodbye to him. .. this was OUR (dance) song even before we broke up..There will never be another Floyd Cramer.!
this is great music played by a great artist
