Thank you, thank you Sir Basil, I was searching for ages for this song- I used to listen to it played from a Dairy Farmers jukebox in Kingston Jamaica. I believe the words are from writings of the mid-eastern sage Kahil Gilbrain in "the prophet" norman
Everyone who likes this song, should search in YouTube (KETTY LESTER, "ONCE UPON A TIME).
Just heard it here on YOUTUBE. Use to listen to it in the Air Force, the original by FRANK SINATRA, over & over & over. It still brings tears to mine eyes.
By LOVE LETTERS STRAIGHT FROM YOU HEART" "KETTY LESTER!
i'm so glad that there are people out there who recognize a great voice when they hear it. Chuck Jackson is one of the greatest voices of all time along with Sam cook
I thought I was the only one left on the "Planet" that remembers this Song! One of the many tunes that I was compelled to listen to over and over and over as a Kid!
As I did with Bethoven, Cab Calloway, James Brown Lost Someone, Bobby Bland St James Infirmary, The Cascades Rythm of The Falling Rain, D Warwick and others.
Chuck's voice sounds absolutely beautiful in this song. You get the soft gentle sound of him, as well as the rich deep tones of his instrument used to perfection on this. It brings back such wonderful memories, thank you for posting it!
there will never be a beautiful voice,that can sing such a graceful song,and others like motown chuck jackson

What a fabulous song...I can imagine waltzing across the floor holding my baby close...in sync.
I once thought of having a club with only this type of music.
Check out also...Johnnny Nash Lets move and groove.

This song is so real, it reminds me of something bad that happened to me awhile back. Now, it gives me hope.... His voice gives me goose bumps.
