    This is a sweet song. Such a romantic time to be young. My parents met and fell in love in the early 60s. They still love to dance to these songs. I feel like our generation and those that came after got robbed of the chance to fall in love to the romantic soundtrack of the early 60s.

    She has a sweet and innocent voice. In the 60s, there were many female lead singers - Dionne Warwick, Betty Everett, Etta James, Nancy Wilson, Fontella Bass, and Shirley Ellis, to name a few. They were all very popular in that era. Their lyrics were not overt - that wasn't done back then. You could understand just as much as you wanted to, but I remember them as love songs and always will.

    I had never heard the original until now..in the late 70s KC (Singer of KC& the Sunshine Band) and Teri DeSario had a huge hit with a remake of this,I was so in love with that song..nice to hear the original also

    Hey Mate,
    Just wanted to drop you a big thank you.
    I've just spent the last six weeks in a rough state coming off prescribed opioids after 20 years on them (so you can imagine the dose I was on) and luckily in the second week I stumbled across one of your videos and they really made a positive difference. They were a great distraction, not just the music, but you too.
    Anyway, enough of that bit, detox is done and life has begun again.
    Can't really do this without recommending a song, so as you liked the Sugarland video, try this one. It's Sugarland with "Stand Back Up."
    Over the years my life has taken me to some dark places, but this song has always helped me get back to me again. If nothing else it will help some of the people you treat to find that extra motivation on a crappy day.
    Sorry to go on for so long.
    Thanks again and you sir are a true gentleman, a rare commodity in this day and age.
    Dave

    Love this music soo pure. You gotta hear Mary Wells The One Who Really Loves You, from about the same time. Mary was a great talent, once the number one selling female artist and sadly forgotten by music reviewers.She also died young.

    I'd just arrived alone in S. Cal a few months before this song came out. Feeling kinda' lonely, 21 years old, and imagine what was on my mind! But Ty, I honestly don't recall, although it's been a while, believing this song was about what you think it was about. It was just a pretty nice song.

  • @RhiannaBarr

    Barbara Mason was a female artist in Philly and was probably one of the best philly soul artists around at the time. She was 18 when she wrote and sang this song, An amazing talented woman.and btw Kenny Gamble (TSOP) was her back up singer on this track.

    Barbara Mason's accent when she sings it's very relatable to Estelle refer to as Chicano style oldies, just by the way she accents her voice has really captivated that she kind of culture for many decades like no other, even though herself she's not Hispanic. it's just that certain style she has that really Drew such.

  • @John1948Ten
    @John1948Ten 5 лет назад +3

    Kathleen Diaz is right. Back in our day when we talked love we meant romance and commitment. There was sex and there was love. This is actually a sweet and innocent song. C;mon she didn't even know how to hold hands and kiss. But Ty, you're cool and I know that you support true love with commitment.

  • @felixkmgalanti9064
    @felixkmgalanti9064 4 года назад +1

    Hey my MR Man, Ms. Mason does are particular genre of R&B/Soul, refered to as Chicano Style Oldies. Being why the Flattish accent to her singing, just like Leon Huff of The Intruder's and few others.

  • @markkmiecik9797
    @markkmiecik9797 5 лет назад +2

    I was in eighth grade when this came out. Slow danced to it for years afterwards. Back then there was no sexually explicit music that was public. This was precariously balanced right on that edge. Back then being just a tad controversial helped make songs into hits. Of course, it really helped if the song and the singer were really good.

  • @moogie1954
    @moogie1954 5 лет назад +14

    I think the song is more innocent than you are giving it credit for. You have to remember the time period that it was recorded. Explicit sexual phrasing wasn't as common as it is now.

    I’ve listened to you quite a bit and you have a common sense view of reality. I like that. Wasn’t she a cutie, she looks at someone and smiles that shy look, just beautiful and makes guys flip. lol 😂 love is a miracle, and like Lightning it just strikes anywhere. I was 15 when this song hit number one and of course it was innocent like someone that wanted someone to show her how. But like you said, only God can show you love.

  • @dissdad8744

    Who is the person suggesting these songs to you? Excellent taste. They must have been a teen when I was. This song came out in my senior year of high school. No hanky panky stuff😅 I was a virgin still thinking that saving myself for Mr. Right was important.

    Ty. The term "rock and roll" -- which this is -- was a euphemism originated by black singers in the early 1950's to infer sex.

    I really enjoy your reactions to songs, especially the ones from the yesteryears. I really am glad 8 found your channel. I do have some song requests I would like to see you react to.
    1. Roy Orbison - She's a Mystery to Me.
    2. Little Joe Cook and the Thrillers - Peanuts.
    3. Alan Dale - Sweet and Gentle.
    4. Bobby Vinton - Over and Over.
    5. Pat Boone - Speedy Gonzalez.
    6. Elvis Presley - Crawfish.
    These are songs I often listen to and enjoy enormously. I know I'm pretty bold for suggesting 6 songs. Obviously it doesn't have to be all at once. But please consider these songs for future reaction videos.

    Ok let me help you interpret this got you since I'm 62. Music during that time period relied on facial and body movements to express their music.Their was no techno electronic devices to go with music .Second alot of songs were about romantic love and not about sex ! Today it's in your face music !! Not then !!! Look at the other genre of music ...Walk on by....hold me thrill me by Mel Carter ...and so many others .Music was much more innocent as was the morality of our culture !! She said what she was ready for love!!! Romantic love !!!people fall in love and they grow in it over the years !

      Yes! KC (and the Sunshine Band) and Teri DeSario had a fun (and better sounding) No. 2 duet with a cover of this song in 1979. I didn't realize it was originally recorded by Barbara Mason. Good to know the history. The 1979 version was played at the roller skating rink during couples' slow skate back when I was in high school. :-)

      Yeah the sarcasm went WAAAAY over your head and your comment makes that obvious. When you say " all you think about is sex" are you referring to me? I have been married for 21 years and I'm from the old school so your comment is completely obsolete if it was intended for me.
