[8814dw]

This song still is good as it ever was.....

[akretowicz]

One of my all time favorite songs.

[GunzHard1]

I think I was about four or five when this song came out; Ioved it then, and still love it today.

[carmen5371]

I loved this song then and now......it's still good!

[mirrortwin56]

my favorite song as a senior in high school

[glgale92]

The groups today don't have a clue about GOOD music. They just bang their drums and screech a few notes. This era was the REAL DEAL.....

[BadNews88]

@glgale92 Not even that, m8...it's all electronics & samples....and -- (c) rapping...UGH!

On a happier note, didja know that the producers of this were DENNIS COFFEY & MIKE THEODORE? (They collaborated on the guitar heavy funk jam 'SCORPIO')

Ennyroad, Thanx fer this, m8..

[lostsound2001]

Thank You........

A SONG FROM HAPPIER TIMES ! ! ..........thnx 4 posting !!!!....sincerely, Ralphie

[buck62sugar]

This is one of about 30 songs I mistakenly thought Neil Diamond sang. Good song nevertheless!

[melliemae]

@buck62sugar Tee hee, me 2!! I thought ND did this song as well. ha!

[KCKILLERCAT]

Ha Ha ! I just broke into dancing to this great song with the great beat .......Can't tell you what the dance was called back then .....But I still have it in my old bones !! Thanks for posting !

[melliemae]

@KCKILLERCAT ... You are not old. You're on the second half of your life!! Have a great time! :)

[KCKILLERCAT]

[TheAmenyxify]

Oh, sí, siempre es bueno estar con ustedes todo el tiempo .... canción alegre, fresco y agradable, por cierto. Gracias por subir.

[Drewster58]

Great to hear this song again. And yes, I did think this was Neil Diamond when I heard 'back in the day.'

[comeon224]

Percussion the best thing about this song.

[beetle179]

Rest in peace Dad...love you!

[nephetula]

Yes, he sounds a little like Neil. So what? Terry Stafford also sounded a little like Elvis. When I first heard this song, I figured the steel player was Sneaky Pete. Later on, I found out it was Paul Franklin's first recording. ( Paul played awhile with Dire Straits, but now he's the #1 session steel player in Nashville.)

Good song!

[2georgeorwell]

too bad she's a little fat....i don't care.....yeah....and stupid....i don't care

[lyutsin21]

I do not think Jim gold sounds like Neil Diamond's studio recordings. Gold's voice is softer, more mellow, a with a little touch of raspiness. Neil Diamond has a more deep, robust, full rich voice in his studio recordings, but Diamond is worse in his live performances where he may be slightly more similar to Jim gold in this song. This song is ok but its melody is a little weak compared to other light rock songs I like.

[VDRP]

Ummm... he was in a band called Gallery.

[knowallcity]

C'mon,this song screams summer of 70 and every summer after....

[dmwaz]

great song brings back great memories of the 70s

[nibornna]

i can remember my sister and cousin playing the heck out of this song on a 45 record back when we were kid's. they were older then me by a few year's so sometimes they woul'nt let me in my sister's room so i would have to stand outside the door listing!!! they were mean to me lol !!!

[LacerationLisa]

Oh yes, I remember My aunt and uncle were so proud the day they came to stay for the weekend. we had a neighborhood party, playing all their songs into the evening..cozy memory

[TheASmyth]

What a great golden oldie. Pity only one hit from them. Was 11, wow what memories.

[SDE1961]

@TheASmyth Hey! Don't sell them short! They had more than one hit. They hit the top 40 with "I Believe In Music" which was not one they wrote (Mac Davis). They also made the Top 40 with "Big City Miss Ruth Ann(e)". I also believe they did a version of Buddy Holly's "Maybe Baby" but I'm not sure if if made it into the Top 40. I'd have to do some research to get more specific. Great little steel guitar solo. We must be the same age as I was 11 in '72 and am now a kiddish 49.

[14gamecock]

why do people keep giving the thumbs down to comments on here that say they think he sounds like Neil Diamond? It isn't a poor comment, so why give it a thumbs down? I love this song and I love Neil Diamond songs, and I think he sounds like Neil also. The first time I ever heard this song, I thought it was Neil. People need to save the negative votes for actual poor comments!

[whatsay2]

I was in that 45 records (13 y/o) at this point in time...loved this song! :) Thanks for sharing!

[RealDare2]

It's fun thinking back, I was a dating teenager when this song was released, brings back some awesome memories related to me and my friends........Thanks for the song. "Oh It's so nice to hear it again" lol.

[MrBuckwilliam]

beautiful, light and bubbly. thank you for sharing it and five more stars :)

[smellycat1966]

band the gallery! kool thx sharing

[uzi4u182]

He sounds like Neil Diamond almost. Great song!!

[parker95662]

i really injoy this song why doesnt anyone have video my cousin Danny was the drummer i still cant get him to play the drums he refuses i dont know why anyway he is in his 60s and man he looks great id say he looks 40 something thin a great looking still a cool guy for sure

[circusitch]

Interesting trivia about your cousin, too bad he wont play.

[SomethngBoutMary]

I never thought about it but it DOES sound like Neil Diamond. Good ear!

[biggest69er]

Today's music blows, this is the "good stuff" Thanks for posting this piece of relief from today's garbage on the radio

[bboice02]

I was hoping and praying that Vietnam was coming to a close about this time . 1972 to 1975 was insane for me . I joined the Air Force in 77 . Thank God Vietnam was over .

[blueticecho]

@bboice02 I was with the 101st 1970-1971 I wish you were right but Vietnam is NOT over for many... Even today but I'm glad that you were lucky enough to miss it. Peace................

[er6789er]

@blueticecho - Amen - Peace to you and yours...

[mrREDBIRDFAN]

I have daughters who are 25 and 14.They like this.I'm glad. But I still give them crap how their generations got ripped off music wise.Just trying to be a good dad.

[lovemorembigi]

The theme for my first serious girl friend. 1972 - great times!!! Thanks for putting this one up.

[annabodhi38]

I love this song! I remember from way back.. I would tag along with my cousin to her friend's house where they would listen to records. I had to sit and be quiet while they played records and talked about boys! Ah.. youth!

[sprinter440]

I still love the 70's songs after all these years. Great songs - great memories

[knowallcity]

Bring back hot pants...Or time travel...one is easier then the other,but I know what I would choose..lol...

[knowallcity]

Your causing a comotion in my soul....damm thats good!.

[Aruji09]

What a delightfully cheerful sweet song!

[jimbowie09]

He was a welder who went musical, quit his job and then went on tour with his band on this hit!

[dmiller60]

i havent heard this in years they dontplay music like this any more..now its all JUNK

[manthony1956]

@dmiller60 They don't play this anymore. The on-air oldie stations are as bad as Top 40 stations, same playlist everyday.With all the music available, they should be able to go a week without repeats.

[odewepe]

@dmiller60 yes

[tjhx213]

Yah I remember listening to this one over and over again when it 1st came out! Ohh those teenage years.

[jimbowie09]

Awesome! I always thought it was somebody else singing...such as Neil Diamond.. Gak! & thanks.

[RandyBlackLad]

Is it just me,or does Gallery singer Jim Gold sound almost exactly like Neil Diamond?

[lovelytrina03]

oh!yes it's true !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[justwannarock1964]

what a beautiful "country song"...hahahaha....

[ravendofthemist]

really.

[brotski72]

the band was called Gallery

[brotski72]

Jim Gold was the singer and wrote the song. He was a welder in MI. when after the success of the song quit the welding job and went with the band full time. I was lucky to see the band live in Green Bay WI in the 70s

[smilingdon51]

This song is so much like my girlfriend and myself...........luv it

[Pacer8]

very true

[GrooveDoctor77]

Ye a I remember this song it was a group called Gallery first rock band I saw with a steel guitarist

[infinera06]

This is Gallery. I don't know who the F Jim Gold is. Jim Gold sounds like someone who would commit financial fraud.

[joeyd1957]

Youuuuuuuuuuuuuu bet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[billyngirl]

this was billy and my first song it still rings true in my heart

[sharmin1215]

Still loving this song...

[bingokatt]

thanks for posting brings back old memories

[lovleypurpleflower]

Can you tell me where you got this song?

Like what c.d it's on? I can't find it anywhere.

[alarbman39]

Was Jim Gold the lead singer? I thought this group was called "Gallery". I had the 45 as a kid.....

[clarkbailey1973]

The group is called Gallery, I guess we'll have to google if Jim gold was the singer or not

[DiamondDog1606]

Any time I go on a trip with my family, this song plays. It's inevitable. It has so many great memories attached to it for me :)

[ruleoforder]

Simple music for simple minded people.

LOL. LONG LIVE IGNORANT SHEEP...

[SeeDavRun]

Great and uplifting song. I was 3 when this came out. It's one of the first songs I can ever remember, along with "Burning Love", "Black and White", and others at that time. It's amazing how young someone can be and still know a hit song. I didn't know it like I do now, but I remember this one well. When I was young, I thought this was Neil Diamond, like a lot of people did.

[maheshino]

I always thought this was a South African artist.Nevermind, will always remind me of Durban, RSA and Radio Port Natal. Wow!!!those were the days...I wish they'd never end!

[thomasemarsh]

i love it.feel great song!

[redneckmama21]

makes me feel soo good love this song

[blindmellonchittlen]

I was also 12 or 13 when this came out, I heard it on the radio about a year ago and started thinking about junior high. I would have swore this was Neal Diamond all these years,

[perryvann]

I was 12 years old when this 1972 hit came out. I played it over and over and over so much my mother took it away when I was at School one day,only found out years later. I've forgiven her since.

[knowallcity]

ahh,why not repeat it?-lol.

[knowallcity]

When this comes on the supermarket speakers everybody my age starts singing!..just can't old it in-lol.

[jsngb77]

Great song!!!

[knowallcity]

1972, and good memorys for everyone. Funny how people my age stop and sing along when it comes on at the super market!

[unique0084]

i really like this song,,,when did this song ever come out??

[SGMX7]

I believe it came out in 1972 when I was about 13 or 14 and it received heavy AM radio airplay for about a year or more. Gallery was the first cassette tape I ever owned and I pretty much played it into the ground. There wasn't a bad song on it. A few years later my brother borrowed it along with several other of my tapes and then failed to lock his car doors and thus they were all stolen. The tape I miss the most was Gallery. Luckily I was able to find both the 8-track and LP on Ebay.

[venice45]

one of the best song thats ever been played

[silver40001]

Where can I buy or purchase this song? Does anyone know a source to put this on Itunes or the mp3 file?

[spidy524]

might as well search the internet cause i got Golden memories vol 1,2,3,and 4 it have great songs including this and other great songs

[pczmn]

all you need to do is dowload the video. convert it to an mp3 format and bam you have the song

[finster963]

The version on Itunes is slightly different than this. I prefer this-this is what we heard "back in the day"

[1982toru]

to my sweet sailor moon

[felixcortinas]

senior year 1972, fun at Port Aransas, beautiful girls, lots of fun, great memories.

[mike68jones]

i like to refer to poppy fun tunes such as this as, "groovy sunshine music!!!"

[macawlady49]

awesome. I first remember hearing this song when I was in 8th grade. Man, time flies!

[raymond37148]

gotta love that pedal steel

[freeridingjoe]

this song was playing in my head all day yesterday and im so glad you can find songs by typing a few lyrics thanks for posting a great memorey

[ghslslsl]

My g/f Tina would sing this song to me when we went riding in my car...I was in heaven and didnt know it...we broke up...I was a fool

[chg657]

It's from Gallery, spring 1972

[redf150guy]

I always thought this was Neil Diamond, and I couldn't ever find this on the internet cuz of that. I heard this on the radio how many times but I never found out it wasn't Neil Diamond!

[fffreddie]

The group you should find it under is "Gallery."

[Diandre22]

great old song......................

[americansherrybaby]

I haven't heard this one in a while. Thanks for posting. Sweet!

[x0xvampiregirlx0x]

[steigerpower]

Cheers.

[KingImpaler]
