Superb rendition of a great favourite. Still going strong after some 40+ years. Incredible. Many thanks for posting what is now my favourite version of a great song.
This song, when performed by The Drifters, Dolly Parton and Michael Buble is the Mona Lisa hung upside down. The ridiculous upbeat tempo of their versions fail to capture the pain of a man with polio (writer Doc Pormus) longing to dance with his wife. Unable to do so, heart breaking because he loves her 'oh so much!' he gives her freedom to dance with others. And, sadly fearful , he reminds her who brought her and 'in whose arms she's gonna be'. Piet has hung this masterpiece right side up.
I just knew this band few months ago, but i already love them, and got surprised havent known them before, amazing band. This is one of my favorite songs, thanks for sharing, great video!!
Hi Sister. Listen to Piet Veerman, and find a comfort like I do. Rock and roll is nothing compared to feelings he puts into this old Drifters song. How can anybody put this nicer. Brings back memories in abundance. No one ever comesclose
@Safir91b How nice that you put this words on my reactions that did come out of my hart. My english is not that good, but I try to thank you for your words.
I live near Volendam, the older I get the more music numbers from the time I were young and trust the word more then now. Like a film I do see the times from years ago, when I lissen and see The Cats and some others. Thanks for saring this with you xxx from Betty
@betty55able Now my problem is to get a CD with our mutual friends in The Cats. In my country,Norway, there is no chance to get any CD of them. Most music shops just stares at you when you mention the groups name. Youngsters of about 20' s. Puhhh
Got to try this summer, to get a CD to play in my car, during driving.
Thanks for your answer - and enjoy the Cats as I do - all summer long.. So long :- )
kon ik nog maar in de armen liggen van de man die deze man als voorbeeld nam voor zijn doen en laten. Alleen liet hij mij vallen en nam een ander in zijn armen.
Na vele jaren kan ik het nog niet begrijpen, toch is dit nummer nog wel steeds een topper. 10+ als cijfer
I never have been able to figure out why these guys were apparently virtually unknown in the US (I wasn't around when they were popular so I don't know for sure). This is by far the best version of this song - great vocals, great instrumentals and a lot of feeling.
This is a great song to slowdance.I love this song.
