  • This is the one song that still rings true today as it did back then.

  • @bootreese1 That is correct. The lyrics read 'it was long ago and far away' She's reexperiencing but hopefully with better perspective.

  • This song will always keep bullies at bay. I was a non conformist in school. Stayed away from it all. I was fortunate not to be bullied or bully. But sure did NOT feel like a beauty queen... and even at 17 VERY PROUD OF THAT.

  • A masterpiece, beautiful in its saddness and truth, timeless and that's just the song....Janice is the real treasure.

  • girlfriend do something with that hair!

  • This song is so me..I identify with it..and cry when I watch it..this was me and still is now..

  • Now I haven't checked but unless she was a small child when she sang "society's child" in the early 60's I do believe she is well beyond 17 here.

  • Being a MUSICAL GREAT at 17 years old....she had MORE to offer than ANY other 17 year old Dingbat in her class!

  • STILL TOUCHING - STILL CAN MORE YOU TO TEARS - AND JUST AS TRUE TODAY AS IT WAS YEARS AGO - A TRUE CLASSY CLASSIC - NO ONE SINGS IT BETTER THAN JANIS - YOU HAVE TO HAVE LIVED THIS SONG.

  • Love You!!!!
