The shortest four-and-a-half minutes in musical history! Each time I've nothing better to do - which is very often now at 70 - I watch this video. And each time I know that I was right, there's nothing better.

Who's the enlightened pianist, by the way?

Listen to Jean Shepard"s version, everybody, if you want to hear the best ... once again.

Say you guys, de-tune the strings then slip an elastic band around the neck (not yours, the guitar's). Cheaper.

Monica Vitti and Raf Vallone? Name of film, please! And many thanks for the posting.

And one man actually survived, at that speed against a concrete pillar! What immediately springs to mind - seeing that I've just bought one - it to congratulate Mercedes Benz. Any other car would have been atomized, reducing its occupants to strawberry jam.

Yes, goofygoat2009 my friend. I'm 70, and I'm sad to say that you're right. Still, those were the days ... Memories are made of this!

Homosexuality is the disease and AIDS is the cure ... yes or no?

I've rarely - or never - seen a video which so closely follows the mood of a song. Many thanks for the posting, I'd not heard this since about 1962. But tell me please : did the girl have to change clothes at 1.22 because of something that Liam Neeson did to her? And why didn't he run after her?...

Suddenly I've gone off fat girls. You're as pretty as your music.

Don't bother to cook them. You eat oysters raw, don't you? I've eaten raw limpets "on the rocks" on Atlantic coasts in Britain and France, and on Mediterranean coasts of Spain. Chew them whole, they're delicious, INCLUDING the black bit! I'm 70 and still chewing. Among the best, the big yellow ...

I just wondered - how did Over The Waves get turned into Oh How We Danced and subsequently into Big River? Somebody somewhere isn't telling me something.

Will someone please introduce a law FOR bigamy?

The best of the best, even then! Also under discussion at the time was whether Nina was making a political statement, for she seems to say "So long West Germany, it hasn't got a chance," before the next line, "I'll trade all the sights I've seen for just one loving glance." Sorry, Nat; but not...

It WAS uploaded. Some ****** stole it a couple of years back.

Another one I've been waiting for since I last heard it in 1962, which came out in 1961 I seem to remember. A fabulous piece of music and still news! A million thanks to YouTube and guys like you

Wanna know who he was, ol' Jo Clark? Go to Jimmie Driftwood's version.

She'ld impress me too! Does she really have a 4-octave range, at 15? In any case, she's well on the right track just WANTING to sing like this. Anything else will be a doddle for her in the future.I love her. Congratulations to both of you. My 15 yo granddaughter can hardly sing Humpty Dumpty. ...

Hola MyriamRoRod : Would you like to contact me via e-mail on marcanna@sfr.fr ?

Podemos discutir mas facilmente. Creo que tenemos cosas para contar otras que el lugar de naciminto de Carlos Gardel. Gros bisous du sud de la France.

C'mon everybody, and read the Wikipedia entry for Eddie. That's exactly what happened, except perhaps for the tyre blowout. I saw him on stage with Gene Vincent in Bristol two nights before the crash. RIP, boys.

4 people are barren homos.

Ten zombies just don't want happy people to live. Stay in your graves and shut up!

I hope VertousWLF was talking about a valve trombone. Much easier!

I hope the MULE didn't give you a BLUE bruise and BLIND you with a kick when he stole your BUNN, Alan my BOY. Whoever he is, this Rev. Moses guy, he does a fair imitation of a certain famous friend of mine in Snowdonia ....

First time I've heard this song, sixty years on! Seems so new and fresh that I'll include it in my personal repertoire to impress my friends on our CW evenings.

Just a couple of venial yodelitos, especially in the middle of "Dios". But still great. This is my favourite for singing alone with my guitar, imitating Slim and thinking I am. But what a strange backing! Turn up the sound and listen to the 1950s electronics. Beautiful video. Muchisimas gracias.

It don't mean a thing if it in't got that KING!

Photographer, musician, sound technician, gardener, cat owner, librarian, and now, I discover, painter. Magnificent work also. What CAN'T you do, Alan?

Great fun. Back at school in the fifties, we used to sing (very) different words!

You are 100% woman, 100% musician, 100% great. What more could a man want? I don't even care if you're mean, Mary. ILY.

Que lujo es leer comentarios inteligentes, ademàs con palabras tan poeticas como las de esta cancion si bien compuesta y cantada. Saludos a toda esta gente buena de la parte de un inglés de Francia.

She took your breath away at 2.13? Looks to me like she might have halitosis, and that's why.

... and right down to the arms and the fingers! Is there something about you that ISN'T talented and beautiful?

Jean Shepard IS the Country Hall of Fame. Anyone else is superfluous.

Much better than Jimmy's YT entry, and I'm a JD fan. No joke! Or did he ever record a more authentic version, alone with his guitar like you?

Actually I prefer to think of the story as a white man whose black love is removed for racial convenience's sake back in the "politically correct" days. G...
