To illustrate how musically amazing this song is, play the opening 10 seconds and then skip to the last 10. It doesn't even seem like the same song. Then listen from start to finish and observe how the song builds and each instrument integrates, leading to an amazing Dixieland-esque crescendo. Add some lyrics that are both simple and deep at the same time and you have a minor masterpiece!
Vegaslover777 said he doesn’t like Anka’s music and you suggested he “should give them a listen”. But if he said he doesn’t like Anka’s music, that would suggest that he already has - after all, he’s not going to know he is not a fan of Anka’s music if he’s not familiar with it!

Hi, Vali! This is a real gem. Have not yet heard. Thanks
@vegaslover777 Why not, :) Paul has many good songs and he wrote alot of them. You should give them a listen if you like oldies. :)
nice
Sound like something done in the 80s even though it was done in '76
Pat, remember this is our song?
@vegaslover777 Ok, It was just an innocent question.

Don't like Paul Anka, except for this tune which is one of my favorites.
@Vintageart1994 Why not? Because everyone has their own musical tastes and my mine are not in tune with Paul Anka's.
