The Association- Cherish

[Pletet]

i just heard this song on the simpsons episode "homer and lisa exchange cross words"

really a nice song

[jetoloko]

Fabulous: the harmony singing, vocals, melody, text. A real gem, like the Association have made more! Underestimated, fantistic group.

Thanks for all pleasure you gave me, Association!

[CaptainSings4Uerrrrr]

come on dudes.... if you're going to write a great song...get all the lyrics right..Pleasz!!! I will have to write Hope a better one than this one!!!

[jessicaalbalover]

I Love this song, I mean you don't hear that kind of harmony in songs today.

[bigdog67]

This is just one of those feel good songs eh?

[guidefox]

good song to dance to with your best gal

[freestyles26]

Yeah, im 15, and i love this song. Its pretty timeless

[jenniebmine17]

my dad used to sing this to me to fall asleep when i was having a bad day....i love this song! ♥

[kevincadogan2310]

i go crazy everytime i hear this song.GOING CRAZY!

[skaterkat2]

this song makes me want to kill myself thats not so good

[lefreak79]

With a comment like this, please do!!! We'll all be better off!!!

[ladycplum]

I've been in love with this song since I was about 7 years old. I'm 30 now, and I still love it now as much as I did then.

[1987whipper]

I'm 31 ... I had a similiar experiance. I remember calling the radio station when i was 9 repeatedly to play it...and its just as good now as it was than. IT DOESNT GET OLD!!

[lefreak79]

It's nice to hear of "younger" people liking this song. I'm 46. Not quite a baby boomer, yet not quite an X'Gener. I miss songs that were as simple and superb as this. I wish there really was a real time machine.

AL IN LA

[orangemirage]

There's no such thing as a young person. We have existed forever. This 15 year old kid, and me a 26 year old guy are obsessed with these 60s tunes because they remind us of our past lives. When I listen to the Association, the Seekers, the Beatles, Pink Floyd, the Byrds, and Led Zeppelin I am transported back to my past life. That's why "young" people are so obsessed with this 60s music because it takes them back to the previous chapter of their Never-ending Story...

[oceanbound222]

Awesome song and vocal !!!!!!!!

[CatManStewie]

Great song, great lyrics!

[thisonefuckinguy]

cherish is the word i use to DESCRIIIIIIIII EYE EYE EYE IIIIIII EYE IIIIIIIBBBBBBBBBBEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEE

[HaleysHeresat]

I love the Association :)

[elmerfusco]

Super lyrics!

[bhite41]

At Prom in 83, as me and my date danced to this song, a girl I loved was dancing close to us. As we turned each time to meet eachother our eyes met and each time we turned it was more emotional until the end when I noticed she was crying. The story continued over time much like the lyrics of the song until we got together twenty years later...

[Ariescold]

That's so sweet, quite a beautiful event!

[ILoveYourUsername]

That is soooo cool!!

[juanitasa]

This song will always remind me of the movie "FEED" (2005. Dir: Brett Leonard), where it plays in the opening credits. Yeah, what an unforgettable film!

[robbase277]

great

[1987whipper]

would you repent and be baptised?

[Foxrrob]

greatest song ever made

[rasegan409]

The guy who wrote this song.Knew how to love!

[ILoveYourUsername]

Agreed! It's sad to say that many guys don't think this same way anymore.

[joelr4982]

I love this song!

[elmopancakes]

I love this song. Thanks!

[AnunnakiBastard]

This song is extraordinary. It flat out amazes me...

[DeutschlandElvis]

qué estilo tan peculiar y hermoso de melodía !!!

[leonheart00]

-_- *sigh* this music, everything is depressing me. All alone am I in the world and as I hear the "Bum Bum" to church bells.. even as beautiful as it is.. perhaps today is not the day to appreciate this music.

[mscatamaran]

i love the association!!! great tune, thanks for posting!!!

[murielanne]

beautiful

[frankd1965]

I here this song on KSAZ, KCEE, KGVY and KTUC in Tucson, Arizona. Also KOY in Phoenix.

BTW(By The Way) excellent Middle of the Road song

[fl1992]

This classic 1960's rock song has been nicknamed The Love National Anthem!

[frankd1965]

A friend of mind used this song at his wedding.

[fl1992]

I listen to this song all the time on WMXJ MAJIC 102.7, South Florida's Oldies Station!

[bixbyglaser]

oops, I meant psychedelic piece of pie.....

[bixbyglaser]

I'm only 35 and this is one of my favorite songs. The Association is totally underrated. "Six Man Band" is actually my favorite. It was their crack at a psychelic "piece of pie", so to speak and it's such a groove. I just wish the Association could've gone further with this, as I believe they definitely would've been a rockin' psychedelic band, too. Oh well, I "cherish" what they did give to us.....

[mrbag60]

I first heard this amazing song when i was around 7 years old, and today although my musical tastes run from mid 60's to early 80's hard rock and heavy metal, this song holds a special place in my heart.

[DiamondAngel04]

this song reminds me of real love lost. it brings tears every time.

[fl1992]

This great song has been nicknamed the love national anthem!

[lifeisarock66]

My highschool girlfriend and I went to one of their concerts in the fall of 66. Cindy, if you are out there, I still love you.

[TheCreepingUnknown]

Such a beautiful song, I heard that this song was voted by some magazine as the most romantic song of all time, it surely deserved it!

[fidokalman]

My buddy, who is gay, once told me that he played this song over and over in 1966 because it expressed his love for his best bud who was straight and so could not be told of that love.

[lusoscksk8]

joer maxo vaya cancion mas gay

[yankady]

Que belleza... Cherysh. Vean la versiòn en vivo.

Se acuerdan de "Remember"....?

[fl1992]

This song has been nicknamed The Love National Anthem! It's Pure Magic!

[leerider52]

please turn on the lights....this  video is soooo dark!!1

[fredabz]

HA! HA! HA! YOUR BLIND! IDIOT!

[mymuahh]

this is such a pretty song...i can not believe it was out before i was even born..hmmm..oh well, i still love it!

[jkoncz]

this is and will always be a great love song and we who lived it in the 60's appreciate your getting it. Cherish is the word!

[hianda]

Gorgeous stuff

[hazmetuyo]

me encanta esta canción. excellent blending of male voices.

[takertown]

i had to play this in maching band during homecoming.

[leah1959]

simple awesome, bless you for posting

[jhigh2]

Right from the start of the song , great stuff.

Cherish/Windy is a tough double to get in front of on

a greatest ever songs list.

[pencil2013]

when i think about people i know and listen to this it makes me cry!

[asia1015]

No matter how much I loved this song, and believe me, at times, this song would reduce me to tears. Still, Windy will always be my All-Time favorite song from The Association.

[luvmywings]

Oh the memories of the school dances. Everyone looked forward to this one. Great memories.

[featherboat]

One of the greatest love songs ever written.

[sixone63]

No video-

Close your eyes- listen and go back.

Who says time machines don't exist!

[TropWaters]

Terry Kirkman wrote this song, but Curt Boettcher crafted this recording and yes, that's Curt singing the high harmony in the last verse. Without the considerable input of Curt Boettcher, the Association might yet be an unsigned band, in 2007.

[5kjs]

this song is so sweet and tender, like a first kiss....

[brandonmex2000]

it´s a beauty song

[Cruise2enjoy]

No video required with that Awesome recording. TOP 50 all time in my opinion.

[dunskie]

A great song written by the great Terry Kirkman

[Jeet226]

The best harmonies!

[DrinkingStar]

One's imagination creates imagery far better than any video could.I gave the video a 2 rating but the song is a 6. I still see those images of the mid 60s in my mind's eye because of this song.

[creaturebotman]

I totally agree with.

[robbase277]

I feel like I should be getting married

[humboldtbear]

Sound but no picture!
