"I" have just recently reunited with "the love of my life", Janice, from 40 years ago.

We 'went together' for 3+ years from 1968 to 1971, during high school, and due to very unusual circumstances, we were separated with no closure.

NOW, thanks to Facebook and my never-ending love for her, I 'found' her just this last year.

We plan on spending the rest of our lives together, in TRUE love !!!!!!!

Om man,this song floods my 73 year old brain with so many great memories.This was one of two song they would play at this teen club where we would go dancing.I can still,after all these years,close my eyes and feel the magic.

On a Sunday afternoon in July 1962, I was introduced to George Motola, the co-writer and producer of Goodnight My Love. His wife, Ricki Page had wirtten a song foBobby Vee but hadn't rpesented it to him yet. George urged her to play it for me and she did. I LOVED it. I recorded it a few weeks later at Goldstar Studios. It was a very good song and well recieved. (Hear it on youtube.com. Search Jim Cava Humpty Dumpty Heart). That one short visit to their house above Sunset in '62 changed my life

Before you go.. We are always looking for that special someone to fill our hearts with love.. A reason to keep getting up... We all need to have a reason to start another day....

Glad you found her. Good luck to you!!!

This song showed up just as Top 40 radio and keen teens were finding their place in the world. Since I was the one who always left the teen dances by himself, my memories of the song aren't all that good. But I still love it.

Read on youtube that an eleven year old Barry White(yeah,same guy as soul singer),played on this track.

[Kelly Murphy]

I think that is awesome, I wish you both many many years together to make the rest of your lives magical.....God bless .....

Great memories of Jesse. This was the sign-off song at 10 PM on the George Klein (friend of Elvis) show on 56 WHBQ in Memphis during the '60s. When this song was playing at that time, if you were not parked on a quiet road in Overton or Audubon Park with your arm around a really cute girl, her tongue in your mouth, and your hand on her boob, you were really failing big time. Such great memories...
