Turn the clock to today, I'm 72 and find myself looking back at the beautiful journey the only girl I ever loved ( married ) 53 years 08/02/21, have gone thru together.

      @@stevevilinsky7464 It didn't make number 1 because the 6o's had so much awesome music and so many talented groups that the Association got cheated on this one ! They certainly deserved the number 1 spot !

      jawtek82 "Unchained melody" by Righteous Bro ,"All l need is the air l breathe to you" by Hollies , "To love Somebody" and "Massachusetts" by Bee Gees rival "Never my love" as much as "you've lost that loving feeling" . That's just my opinion, l guess because l was in Hi school and there were beautiful girls all around me. I married one and we've been together for over 54 years.

    This number is my personal best from the group.I remember when these guys first came on the music scene so many years ago.A good band that received a good bit of airtime in the late 1960s.I found out a few years back that Jim Yester,on keyboards in this clip is from my hometown.If he is still living he's in his early 80s.I know he was still alive 2 or 3 years ago.Thanks for posting,moondoggy.
