Dam finally got all the way through this video on 1/9/2010. I tried to watch like over 30 time from some time in 2010 to 2011 not all in one day. This is because of the dam scary ass mannequins.

@PinkTeardropos Ha, ha...so true.

This was listed in Slipped Discs: The Worst Rock and Roll Records of All Time...I didn't think this was horrible, but thank you, and thank you, YouTube for existing and posting stuff that I've read about!

[SS421982]

@GloriaD5767 Was it really? That sucks as I've always thought this was a pretty good song.

[GloriaD5767]

@SS421982 Yes, it's actually number eight on a list of 50, so according to the authors, it's way up there. It's a really funny book, as they use humor in their writing, but there are several notable songs on the list which I don't think should be there. "American Pie" for one. They also list 50 of the worst albums too. It's still an interesting book. Wonder what would make this list if they updated it for today!

[SS421982]

@GloriaD5767 Thanks! That sounds interesting. I'm going to check that book out. I would include almost everything that's been recorded in the last 10 years at least. Just kidding, but I think a large majority of music today is horrendous.

great song surrounding divorce.

sonny sure didn't get enough credit for writing great songs.

on 24july1972 a close friend of mine got hit by a car almost in front of his house, and died. tommy donlon was his name we were 14, when i hear this song i think of him. it makes me cry, the part that goes, well i have to go now. tommy i still miss you so much. 1972 is a long time ago. just remember i love you. tommy donlon 14sept1957-24july1972. tommy is buried in calvery cem waltham mass, we had just got out of 9th grade- tommy i will see you at the cross road of life.

This is one of my favorite Cher tracks- so that book knows nothing. :) Then again, Cher has never been a critics' favorite.

sonny and cher had a nice beat to their style of music

always loved this song.....my parents divorced when I was a baby and I played my '45 of this endlessly...

[DBIRD55]

When I was little, this song was very popular. My parents were divorcing at the time. To this day I can't listen to it without crying. I think it is a very good song about divorce along with Pink's song, Family Portrait

[redfordforpresident]

This is FBI Director Jay Edgar Hooves' farewell song to his FBI agents. He is Father Time leaving his agents in charge of Mother Earth. That's why Jimmy Steward of Planet Earth starred in the movie The FBI Story. Goodbye, Mr. Chips, you really did have thousands of sons, even though the public thought you had none. Mister Ed, the Talking Horse, doesn't help people with horse problems. Just like Robert Redford said in The Horse Whisperer, Hooves helps horses with people problems.

....RIP sonny...:=)

Sonny and Cher divorced around the same time as my parents. And I am about the same age as their daughter. I remember an interview with Sonny discussing their divorce. It helped me understand my parents splitting up. Sonny had a personality similar to my father's. My grandmother loved the Sonny & Cher show but hated Cher's outfits especially the bare midriffs.

......profound song - even today!!!
