  • Beautiful Thank you

  • I love the way they sang these songs in my infancy... what a lovely voice and choice of songs

    ... and such a lovely lady

  • She really did have a beautiful voice.

  • @FaithIsAnnoyed Correction; that should read HAS!

  • Amazing voice and thanks so much for sharing.

  • Dedicated to the memory of my dear Mom, a single parent who brought us up with love and devotion in hard times. Love you, Mom.

  • I remember hearing this song between movies at the Saturday Matinee. Thanks for posting.

  • I can never listen t this lovely song and think of friends and lovers now gone without finding myself tearfull and then cheerfull again.

  • I think this is probably my favorite song by Gogi Grant.

  • Larry...great post, almost forgot about this great song by Gogi Grant, I feel this  was her best, and thats 73 years of loving our music Dave....Boston

  • I was a kid when this song was on the radio and remembered the tune and some of the words all my life-I'm 63 now. The garbage that is called 'music' now will not be in people's memories 50+ years . Thanks for this song.

  • She is the grearest ever.

  • Was very little when this song became popular....funny........but I still remember this melody...........time really flies so fast...........

  • @nancyfloressantos : Beautiful song, I remember this from long afo! Thanks for the share, Nancy!

  • @nancyfloressantos Nancy-- Gogi Grant has a crystal clear voice and was

    a wonderful singer. This is a great song by her.

  • A popular 1955 song.

  • Wow what a wonderful version thanks for posting.

  • My single parent Mom used to sing this to us when she was working so hard to take care of us. Thanks for posting.

  • Always been one of my favorites - still is. Love Gogi Grant's singing and the lyrics.

    Thanks so much for posting it.

  • Haven't heard this in a long time. I was in the Air Force when the song came out.

  • A good song to play when the blues have got you down.

  • Her other big hit! I would liken her voice to that of Jo Staffords with her pitch and breath control. She truly is a beautiful and talented singer. She right up there with the very best America has to offer.

  • One of my favourites when I was in the Royal Air Force in 1954. I'm 77 now and still play it a lot.

  • You probably need to learn this....It's a waltz beat..........

  • Great song. One of my earliest memories is of my mum singing this song in the lounge room. She was always singing around the house. Brings back lovely memories. Thanks.

  • wonderfull voice abslutly wonderfull what has happended to talent in todays voices backk then when all the vocals exsisted

  • boy: gogi grant, eileen rodgers, gale storm, doris day, dinah washington, sarah vaughn, timi yuro, jo stafford and the list goes on and on and each one was instantly recognized for their own interputation of a song. today all sound the same.........and thats sad because there is talent out there.

  • true so true

  • @emb1st ....I like your list but you did leave off Tony Fisher and her song "The Big Hurt".... you didn't forget Yimi Yuro though.....we are pretty much on the same page.....how cool is that......I love those women, they were so great.....

  • @MrWeedpatch....I would also lie to add Kay Starr and her 'Rock and Roll Waltz'. I really believe that the woman who deserves to be on this list is Edith Piaffe one of the greatest international female singers of all time. So many but I still love Gogi and Timi and Tony.............

  • The voice control Gogi Grant has is just amazing.  What a beautiful and talented singer.

  • My mother used to sing this one to me when I was three or four. She would sing often. I inherited her record collection a few years back. I always felt/feel exceptionally moved for this one. It stirs up all the sincere emotions of courageous devotion she was as my mother and as a loving wife to my father.

    Thank you so much for uploading this. She was an angel on earth.

    -Adeline

  • ps-very nice montage!

  • So beautifully put LittleAddiePray. This brings me back memories of my late Dad and how I miss him. He'd remember hearing this song when he came back from service in Korea in the Fifties. Great music and sad memories

  • Understand every word you wrote.

  • This is such a great song. It almost brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it -- and sometimes it actually does bring tears to my eyes. Gogi really "hit her stride" with this one in late 1955, and she went all the way to No. 1 with "The Wayward Wind" the following summer.

  • Beautiful!......

  • Larry, this video has touched so many people I am sure. I have sent this to many friends and they too really love it. Your pictures are wonderful and so perfect with the song, to think you took them all but one!Thanks again!

  • Thank you Jlarrys. This song was one of my all time faverots I never thought I would ever hear it again!! till I checked You Tube! I also loved the great pictures that went with the music. I have really been down in the dumps lately. Till I found you Video.

  • Thank You For Signing the comments. That makes me well rewarded for the video. I too love this song especially.I remember it from a child. All the photos except one I took.

    Thanks again Larry Sandlin

  • Larry,

    Thank you for this wonderful video. This is one of the few songs that fills me with a sense of peace and satisfaction. Nothing in the hymbook brings me closer to the love of God and who I am as his child than this. Your images are almost exactly what I always imagined when spinning this 45 as a little kid. It is like something that stepped out of my prayers. Thank you very much for bringing me peace today.

  • @jlarrys Well, there are some lovely tributes on this page. 'Young and Foolish' is my favourite of Gogi Grant and it would worth seeking out. It's not on Youtube unfortuanely but is available on CD.

  • ohhh!! this is very nice!!! I can feel PEACE and HAPPYNESS.

  • This goes back to when people ACTUALLY knew how to sing!!!!

  • a real gem of a song by gogi grant from the past and a beautiful video to match,robert taylor

  • This is so beautiful...both the song & the video...reminds me of my childhood.

    Thank you!

  • I agree with you, Jolvare. 110%.

    Petula Clark also did a very good cover of this too.

  • I have this 45 record. It is worth more than

    gold to me, cause there is a message of hope

    in it. Loved the Nature video too!!

  • beats a lot of todays so called singers.
