Very melancoly, but still a great tune; one of my favorite ballads from that time period. Too bad most folks can't separate the Tops from their 60s heyday to appreciate this ballad.
this should've been a hit. it was only a b-side. this happened constantly in their career. people should've spoke up and said this is a hit. there is alot of songs on their albums that should've been hits.
@MrLevistubbs ,you're right,there were probably alot of tough decisions, but when you hear the hits its understandable why they were released, they could've released 80% of the songs on the album,but then people wouldnt buy the album. The Tops and Tempts albums are like greatest hits compilations
The Lost and Found double CD has a song on it named " Old Fashon Man" you talkin' about an Opera sounding voice. Like Duke said," Levi's voice could take
you anywhere." From the first time I heard
him and the Tops in 1964 I knew they would be something special !

You're so right ! I keep saying the Tops' ballads and mid-tempo songs were their
best. However, the record companies chose the up-tempo songs to stay commercial. Example: " I Believe in You and Me" was the B side to "Sad Hearts"

This recording shows Levi could have sung opera. Such clarity and power. His voice was truly second to none.
