    I'm speechless. They had to posses talent in the late 50's. There were no digital enhancing devices for vocalists. They made the music with their voices, and with their harmonies. These guys still sound great. Thank you for uploading this Gem.

    I think lots of us put this song in our top ten love ballads of the sixties. Sooo cool!

    @jonathanprobber 13 лет назад +20

    This is a special record, distinguished among many from that era. Had all of the great group vocal harmony quality, but also a great lyric. Imagery (lying in bed, staring at the ceiling etc.) really draws you in. A jewel.

    Why didn't I live in the fifties and sixties? I'm 'only' 18, but I would do almost everything just to live then, it seems to be so much better than these crazy times.

  • @hollies65

    That has to be the same original lead singer! This song is timeless...because great music and Love are both timeless!

    One of my ALL time favorites. Lost my original - ELDO 'greeney' label in Pittsburgh. Bought replacement 2yrs ago (thanks to Ebay!) light blue label. Great sound. When the song first played on KQV, Pgh, I really felt lonely - had no girl-friend. Aaaaah. Thanks songhooked for this video. The guys still got it!

    I've had a great life but the sixties were the best. This song always brings back my first love in 62. Lost contact with her for over 40 years. By chance we got to talk last year. She is on facebook but Inever looked her up. She will always be 18. It is all about the memories and they will always be special.
