[fish1648]

I just got turned on to dr hook this past summer man what have i been missing

[mikeylikey987]

i have never been without a copy of sloppy seconds since it came out shel can break anyones heart

[jtool666]

I think this my very favorite song.....I dedicate it to my best friend Kari-Lynn Frances... I love you Kari

[superfatass100]

A well wrote, and beautifully sung, truly a classic

[crimbotoy1]

My dad brought me up listening to Dr Hook, I have been lucky enough to see dennis playing live twice. I love this song, Shel wrote a true classic here, a band who where/arent treated with the respect they deserve.

[chaajoad]

Ellabella - Your dad had good taste. Dr. Hook was always a little too goofy for me but I liked this from the first listen and have liked it ever since. Thanks YouGoomba ...

[littlemizzaintfield]

This song was made for dads everywhere <3 Love you dad!

[ShhBrad1984]

One of my favorite Dr. Hook songs...but they're all awesome.

[mrGiorock1]

Love this song

[5hawnK3lly]

i love how the length of the recording is 4:20

[FLHTP2007]

After hearing this , and its been a long time and a strange trip since I last heard it, I had to dry my eyes and get a smoke. Powerful recording.

[dirtyoldroofer]

without a doubt one of the best songs ever...it reminds me of me me and my old man

this song is dedicated to fathers for sure

[englishbangerer]

Reminds me of going to see my dad...three hour trip was filled listening to the Dr.Hook Cassette and it was AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These Songs rock thank god for whoever had these and posted them and the quality is so good...thank you YouGoomba!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RAYNEALAVERY]

Happy Birthday Trent. We miss you. Ride forever in heaven brother.

[someonezmom]

Probably one of my top 5 songs ever ♥

[KaityEtches13]

My daddy used to sing this to me when i was really little to put me to sleep. and he would sing it to me cuz my name is kerry and every time i hear this song i get all emotional and start to cry even when my dad plays it :') And this is the song that my dad is going to sing at my wedding! You rock Dr.Hook!!! Keep on keepin on ;)

[harleybunt]

Cary me one more mile, baby please.

[themooddisorders]

look what's happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear....listen for it!

[KenzieGlassley279295]

I always feel the need to sing "Bottle in a brown bag" a little bit louder but not one bit less passionately then the rest of this brilliant Masterpiece of a song <3

[Piggysmaatgmail]

so beautiful.

[ronniesuperfly]

this song reminds me of being a little kid. My dad would listen to this all the time.

[SharksKid]

@ronniesuperfly

Mine too. Just listening to these songs puts me right back in the front seat of his old Chrysler driving me and my little sis around whenever he could.

[WilliamLaSalle]

This is such a beautiful song.

[ChynaRider]

This is so achingly good, it would take guys like these to add enough gristle to make real instead of schmaltz. You can feel the soul bleeding on the skid row pavement.

[monkeyflingingpooh]

There are two sides to  Dr. Hook. The fun "Cover of the Rolling Stone" side and their deeper more poignant side.

This in arguably them at their best at the latter.

"Then i heard him shouting something 'bout a mountain

he could surely climb, if she was only there to point

the right direction"

[pkrhed99]

They don't make em like this anymore!

[ConditionOfAnonymity]

i'm an old dawg to, first heard about dr. hook in 1971, been hooked since. my lord what a show these guys put on, it was an emotional experience that you would take in to old age, damn what a joy these guy are to listen to even now. ya had to be there, and i was, not sure how many times i got to see there shows, but it's been more than 35 shows. we knew Ray, as he's from Chickasaw Alabama. and i to lived in Chickasaw for a few years. God bless to Dr. Hook and their fans. keep-em alive, ya'll...

[ladyfuschia]

@ConditionOfAnonymity Well I first heard "Sylvia's Mother" on a crazy weekend when I was a young naiive girl hanging out with girls looser and faster than me with older boyfriends. My head was spinning from Tyrolia and weed and almost getting raped. So you can bet I can't hear that song without getting stirred up!!! I found this song only about a decade ago, shortly after I saw them live. Awesome, awesome show!!! The power went out 4 times and they just rolled with it. I bawled like a baby!!!

[LightOfKaos]

The Dr. will see you now.

[kidredcat]

so far Carrie has put 1 person down.

[FaerySimple]

Yeahhhh I needed that!!

[aegudger]

OH yeh when you feel low just gota listen to the DR. Great song love it thanks for posting.

[jamesallenmanicke]

I am 63 and am still down with dr hook

[hippygroove]

@jamesallenmanicke hey im 21 and im down with dr hook, keeping history alive!

[ttmidgett1]

I love this song. My X-husband & I were together for 20 years with two sons now in their mid twenties. We were divorced in 2000. He was an alcoholic, now recovering. We are both remarried but he used to sing this song to me changing the name to Terri, my name. When I left him he gave me a cassette with all of their old love songs on it. I still miss him and this song makes me sad but I still love it.

[crazydaze74]

I love this song. My dad played Dr. Hook records all the time when we were kids. Thank You Dad!!

[janiiG]

[CarrieXD123]

I really do love this song, I was brought up with it, my Dad adores this song so much, he named me after it (:

this song has so many memories linked to it from when i was younger, and the song has a good meaning to it, i can see why my dad enjoys it so much. I love you daddy (:

[samborez]

What a song. Certainly one of Dennis Locorriere and Shel Silverstein's best!

[gilliandawe91]

loveee this song.

me and my brother belt it every time it comes on!

[kolmchri]

absolutely amazing song!



[preciouzgurl]

i first heard this song actually a few weeks ago but have always been a hook fan. my father taught me to appricate real music growing up.

[n8tureboy]

@preciouzgurl

You should thank him, for giving you a good raising.

[preciouzgurl]

@n8tureboy thanks for the sound advice my dear i try to thank my dad everyday for the fond love of music and books both as well as other good values he has instilled in me :)

[ladyfuschia]

@preciouzgurl You don't know how many times I see comments like this on here and it just makes me smile! I grew up with Dr. Hook and all those other great bands of that period and that music will last forever! When I hear about a young person (ie my kids, 23 &25) getting into it, it just warms my heart. Bless you guys and bless your parents for sharing it with you!

[preciouzgurl]

@ladyfuschia i'm glad i could make your day a lil brighter :)

my father is a terrific man with a teriffic taste and love in music, he has raised me on all the good meaningful music. don't get me wrong i can appricate some of today's as well lol but none of them have the emotion and raw talent that dr hook, elton joh, conway twitty, burton cummings etc put into their music.

i'm currently on the hunt for the song black eyed susan by paririe oyster

[jeffmobile3]

love this song . have never gotten tired of hearing it since the 70's

[sissy24689]

i listen to this song when i was 3-5 years old and i just listened to it after all these years and still love that last part when he screams carry me lol

love it

[thomasrockar]

There was once a time when I was someone's Carrie. It wasn't all that long ago.

--Don't you remember, Jim?

[belairbum]

One of my fav songs. This has to be one of the most passionate songs Ive ever heard that makes you feel a story, an emotion! Dr. Hook rocks! Beautiful! Those guys were crazy, but there music just connected with you!

[icharuswing]

it's supposed to be funny, they mocked ballads and other cheesy 70's trends

[Ellabella513]

I have wonderful memories of my dad playing this song. He loved it so much he named me Carrie. My dad recently passed away and this song was played at his funeral. I will always have a special place in my heart for this beautiful song. Thanks dad- I miss you more than you know. C

[Tomboygal123]

sorry for your loss thats a lovely story :)

[Tomboygal123]

[Caraboo1965]
