This was the sound of my youth, so brilliant to hear it again. That piano solo gets me every time.

Beautiful song still sounds fresh

[Roger Coleman]

Definitely Terry, remember they also used it in ' 89 to advertise the ' new ' Mini 30th anniversary model with Twiggy seeing her old Mini parked by the roadside !.

I bought this single back in 1969 and i was 14 years old. I am now 58 and still think it sounds brilliant.Every time the radio 1 was on they played it - definetely deserved the number 1 spot - class!

[Roger Coleman]

Timeless, brilliant song,a one hit wonder which you will never forget, certainly a very happy time in my life !.I think may have been one of the first UK Stereo 45's on Pete Townsend's ' Track ' label, brilliant bass line too !.

[Gordon Eddington]

Was drafted in 1969. Became a conscientous objector after realizing the lies of the viet nam war.. We need more music like this. Peace and Love. We were right back then.

The film The Strawberry Statement details the life of one student, loosely based on the Columbia University protests of 1968 and the non-fiction book of the same name. The film takes place in San Francisco, at a fictional university – which is based on San Francisco State College (later San Francisco State University).

Thunderclap Newman's "Something in the Air" and numerous other rock songs are used on the soundtrack.

Fond memories of September 1969 rush thru my mind when I hear this. My time spent on Florida's west coast abounds whenever I hear this wonderful record. Thanks so much for posting
