Ruby Murray - Goodbye Jimmy, Goodbye (1959)

[GMJ7]

My mother sang this to me when I was little tyke, as Jimmy was my nickname. My brother, nicknamed Billy, got the much happier "Billy Boy" as his lullaby, and I always felt a little sad that he got such an upbeat song while I got one that was so sad.

Nonetheless, thanks for sharing this. It had been far too long since I'd heard this. :)

I was 13 when this lovely song appeared. I had been wanting so much to enjoy it again, Thank you very much for posting.

[albertsamtam]

I very much loved this song of hk cantonese version when I was young in 1979. Thanks for posting this original English song.^^

[sleeplessonthehill]

I remember you posted both US and UK versions. That was my first comment at your old channel. Was pleasantly surprised when you replied. Was that centuries ago? :)

[ILoveJenni47]

Yes, it seems like a long time ago. I didn't know this was where you first commented. I would have figured it was on a Jerry Vale song.

[sleeplessonthehill]

You may be right. The first was for Jerry's From The Bottom Of My Heart. What wouldn't I give for a young memory! :)

[ILoveJenni47]

I was just guessing because you said you found my channel because of the Jerry Vale songs I had posted.
