This is the last song that I heard the last time I was in the car with my Dad before he passed away when I was 16 years old...(16 years ago) I remember him singing along to it. Today (May 10) is the anniversary of his death. So I always listen to this song each every year on the anniversary of his passing, just because I remember him singing it. RIP Dad1950-1995

I never thought about it before but this song is pretty harsh, perfect breakup song

20 years ago I radio dedicated this to my ex-boyfriend after I happily dumped him upon learning he'd cheated while I was away. Reading the lyrics again all these years later (happily married to a much better man), I still think I made a solid choice. LOL

Paul Simon wrote this pop gem...saw these guys live in Baltimore with the Young Rascals & Paul Revere and the Raiders...$5. Now you can't even park your car for that. All the shows were reasonable back then, until Bill Graham came on the scene...

@Glambert345 The phrase "(other) (only) fish in the sea." is symbolic. In this case, a relationship gone bad, hence the phrase "Starfish in the sea."

When was this song released? In my recollection, it was the summer of '67. Am I correct?

@dvora072096 According to Wikipedia, the original version by the Cyrkle's on 4 April 1966. #2 on the billboard top 100. The Seekers also did a version in the same year.
