Just heard this after many years, made me cry, I lost my lovely wife twelve years ago, and my partner three months ago, makes me think of my thoughts about them, both up in heaven. 😪😪
My mom said she loved this song when she was 12. She says it sounded so much more romantic back then. Awwwhhhh my mom is so cute!!! This song is real sweet 💕
@@iansmith8263 I use to listen to this when it first came out. That was 50 years ago. I was just a teenager. I'm sadden that life has past by so fast. I'm sorry you lost your father.
In 1971 I was drafted ready to leave being shipped out with this on the radio. 50 years later I'm still here listening to Tin Tin and this song life is good!

When I was a kid way back, I would sing this song, obviously never understanding the lyrics as such. It always seemed such an ethereal mood to me. Now as an older adult I still resort to singing it when I am super stressed out. Always calms me down. Ah, to go back to the '70s and sing it again as I skipped along the dusty roads of my hometown.
I met John Vallins, Tin Tin's guitarist, at a party in Sydney back in the early 80s. Someone asked him to play it. He picked up a nylon-string guitar and played it, a lot more soulful jazz version than the recorded version. It was beautiful. I wish they'd released that version.
A Real forgotten gem !!!!!....I mean seriously how often do u hear this excellent song ???.not often....surprising really as it was produced by ( one of the Gibb brothers)think it was maurice....anyway great to hear this again....god bless and please dont forget to b kind to each other good karma so important and try to do something nice for someone no matter how small it may seem at the time it really does make a difference and it really does soothe the soul xxx 😇🥰😎❤❤❤
This is a very much old song, I heared it when I was inside in my mom's womb. As of my old age sitting with my rocking chair, I remember my past listening with this song 😄😄😄
April 1971. This came out right about the time I started listening to pop music. It made it up to number 20, but I don't think I've heard it since 1971.
I love this song. I never knew the literal meaning of the title until I watched a video in which "tea" was explained as another term for dinner. As an American, the only "tea" I knew of was the drink.
Actually, "tea" is a break and a snack that English people enjoy in mid afternoon, with tea often served with scones and crumpets -- or toast. Since many upper-class English people don't eat dinner until mid-evening, it's necessary to eat something to keep going until then.
Another forgotten gem !!...beautiful song produced by maurice Gibb of the bee gees , but unfortunately no chart success here in the uk or in the u.s I believe...maybe though in Australia....nevertheless still a classic...god bless and please dont forget to b kind to each other...good karma so important 😇🥰😎
Absolutely!!!!!!....gorgeous song which unfortunately I believe wasnt even a hit either here in the uk or even in the states !!!!... possibly a hit in Australia?.....but anyway nevertheless what a beautiful song at least produced by the brilliant maurice gibb of the bee gees.....god bless everyone and please remember to try and b kind to each other as good karma is so important and it really helps to soothe the soul xxx 😇🥰😎❤❤❤
Although this came out in 71', somehow the tune reminds me of a girl named Sandy I knew in 1963. She was a musician, played violin, saxophone, and piano.
I LOVE this song!! I was a sophomore in high school when this song came out. It didn't seem to be very popular, but I thought it was beautiful. Excellent job enhancing it!
Thanks for the info. I vaguely remember this song when it first came out. I couldn't even tell you when I first heard it. But, it lodged somewhere in my subconscious, and when I heard it again maybe 10 years ago, it resonated.
@BURT- TV That some other guy was John Vallins, who also co-wrote "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late" with Nat Kipner (Steve's Dad) for the Johnny Mathis hit.
Neon Blade Yes I think that’s what happened. Anyway that sound became a signature for them. There’s another track or two where they used the same effect. One is call “is that the way” from 1971.
@@NeonBlade : Yes, the story I heard was that the recording engineer had accidentally dragged his cuff against the tape reel, causing the warble -- but they liked the effect, so they kept it.
Tin Tin's Steve Kipner had an R&B outfit called Steve and The Board. Steve is the son of Nat Kipner an American who lived in Australia who wrote and produced records. Steve had a hit with a sort of a comedy record called "Giggle Eyed Goo" in 1966 which made the Top 10 in Melbourne. The follow up single, "I Call My Woman Hinges" made the lower end of the charts.
Sprang to mind recently as if a Ghost...had to research lyrics just to know it was real...and surely no imagined fantasy could be this beautiful!!! It all came back to me! That is Pop Music!!!!
Wow - just wow. This was one of the first songs I attached myself to as a neo-teen. I can hear instruments I never heard before in the 45 RPM record I wore out decades ago! :)
The story goes...The Bee Gees had hired some recording studios. If I remember rightly, two them were ill and only Maurice had turned up. As to not waste the very expensive studio time, he offered to record Tin Tin instead. The song was not finished, hence one verse and the chorus, and so they recorded what they had. Maurice produced and played bass. Lulu's brother Billie Lawrie was involved too. Its a great song. Steve Kipner who was in the band went on to write and produce a myriad of songs and produce many artists. He is a real nice guy.
Interesting thing is that there’s no distinct verse/pre chorus/chorus.. basically it’s the one section that gets repeated and towards the end they employ key changes/modulations to lift it up to its peak.. (the old key change trick) but works perfectly in this song.. A Maurice Gibb Production for Robert Stiggwood
Acho que essa música é sem sombra de dúvidas a que eu mais ouvi na minha vida! Desde que comprei o compacto simples lá no início dos anos 70 ouço-a até hoje com a mesma emoção!!! Lindíssima! Ela é a única música do LP que foi gravada em MONO.
I remember hearing this when It came out when I was a kid and have always loved the song. It does sound like a song the bee gees would have written. A very soothing song for sure and one the reflected the music of the 60's and early 70's. Great enhancement by the way.
This song is so beautiful! Hunted for the album and found it in Pittsburgh PA. Cost $10.00 for it and for some odd reason the album had a hole punched in it. Back then, it was lot of money, however you know how it is when you just have to have a particular song.
Che nostalgia per qualcosa di struggente che non mi so spiegare e che non ho mai vissuto. Mi ricordo di questo 45 giri che stava suonando nel mangiadischi di mia cugina nella nostra cameretta in vacanza e subito mi fa venire in mente il colletto della Lacoste tirato su, le Burroughs, le College, le cinture di Gucci, Fidji e Diorissimo, tutto un mondo di radical chic (tutta 'sta gente che sembrava sanbabilina in realtà poi erano diventati radical chic) erano altre vite parallele alla mia che non si incontravano mai, eppure anche io indossavo queste cose, era come una divisa, ma ero fuori da ogni ambiente.
Simple - the music now is mass produced cheap rubbish, with words that cant be understood, will never stand the test of time and the producers are out to make a fast buck before they disappear into oblivion. Think The Beatles if you want something else that stands the test of time....
I thought the lyrics were “Oh and mama lays fatigued”. Wrong, its “Toast and marmalade for tea”. My God, I had not heard this lovely song in 45 years! Thank you for the upload and the incredible memories.
Just heard this after many years, made me cry, I lost my lovely wife twelve years ago, and my partner three months ago, makes me think of my thoughts about them, both up in heaven. 😪😪
I'm so sorry, that is the worst thing about life, losing others.
No wonder it sounds like the Bee Gees, it was produced by Maurice Gibb. Great song I never get tired of hearing.
Woww...i did not know that.....cool....
I believe Maurice also played bass on it.
No wonder this Aussie song is a hit because the Brit Maurice Gibb had a hand on it. :)
It is a very unique song
Yes the influence of the BeeGees is obvious. ❤❤❤
My mom said she loved this song when she was 12. She says it sounded so much more romantic back then. Awwwhhhh my mom is so cute!!! This song is real sweet 💕
yes it is...brings back so many memories...not that I can have many memories anymore! lol

A rare gem of a song waiting to be rediscovered.
I came across this by accident, I was asking my Alexa to play Tin Tin Out but she played this instead. A Happy accident indeed
In 1971 I was drafted ready to leave being shipped out with this on the radio. 50 years later I'm still here listening to Tin Tin and this song life is good!

Absolutely, positively, undoubtedly one of the best songs ever sung in the best decade that ever existed 👊😎
I got verbally battered by my m8s for buying this in 1971, it's still a damned fine tune now:)
very gay song

Money well spent all those years ago!
This brings back such beautiful memories. Makes me tear up.
Riding with my dad in his car listening to am radio in 70's great times
Jr high school for me 1971. Now we're old ..went by to quick.
UC Berkeley for me early 70's
I met John Vallins, Tin Tin's guitarist, at a party in Sydney back in the early 80s.

So cool !
The 70's 1 hit wonders are my all time favorite tunes and there are so many this gem being just 1of them!!!
What a gorgeous song , only came across this song by accident , boy what a gem , wasn't a hit here in the uk.......well what a surprise!!!!😎😇
Still listening to years later how I miss those days.
Beautiful song
I've loved this song since the first time I heard it on the am radio in my mom's car going o tennis lessons...50 years ago...omg!
A great dreamy song in the day. 🎶🌸
I only heard this song a few times in 1971 . It's unique

This tune is a groove Ian so dig yourself.
I was born in the 90s, my parents had this on a cd for me and my sister and we always said the lyrics were "sailing chips upon the sea" ah memories ~
Loved it all those years ago brought it played it lost it now found again I’m in heaven.
This song was on my mind today and that brought me here.
Beautiful song. Listening lockdown March 2021

If you're listening to this in 2021 you're a legend
love this song, it brings back special childhood memories ...such a pretty gentle song
takes me back to early 70[s
First heard this at Anstruther holiday camp in Fife in the summer of 1970, great memories
sometimes the simplest songs are just the best
I haven't forgot about this I know all the songs from the 70s
I was twelve when this came out and our local radio station played it. I loved it then and still do.
Although this came out in 71', somehow the tune reminds me of a girl named Sandy I knew in 1963. She was a musician, played violin, saxophone, and piano.

Fantastic song from around 1970. Love the warbley piano which makes the sound pretty unique.
Martyn H gostaria de saber de onde é essa dupla. Se possível, me respondam em português, não achei no Google. Obrigado.
I was told that it was from repetitively tapping the tape reel whilst recording that part.
Apparently they discovered that sound after someone in the studio accidentally leaned on a tape machine in the studio.
Neon Blade Yes I think that’s what happened. Anyway that sound became a signature for them. There’s another track or two where they used the same effect. One is call “is that the way” from 1971.

Such an emotional tune..with with from m. Gibbs...so luvly..sweetie
Produced by Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees, who played mellotron, guitar, organ, etc. on various songs on the album.
