What memories of a golden age for me. I feel so lucky and privileged to have grown up in the 50`s and 60`s, loved almost every minute. Great revival of a great song.
"And don't forget who's taking you home and in whose arms you're gonna be .." ♥️ Takes me back to our hey days where life can be so full of fun & free, so unlike the caged & hopeless moments we're feeling now. Nostalgia ♡♡♡
The Drifter's 1961 version was the one I remember. It was a cha-cha beat, but we often slowed the beat to half time and buckle-polished anyway. Those were the days.
OMG! Thank you so much fo bringing back such sweet memories. Those were the days when music was real music to the years. Now it’s all Bang! Bang! So jarring to the ears.
HERE'S THE STORY BEHIND ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR SONG IN THE NET. In a 1990 interview,[1] songwriter Doc Pomus tells the story of the song being recorded by the Drifters and originally designated as the B-side of the record. He credits Dick Clark with turning the record over and realizing "Save The Last Dance" was the stronger song. The Drifters' version of the song, released a few months after Ben E. King left the group, would go on to spend three non-consecutive weeks at #1 on the U.S. pop chart, in addition to logging one week atop the U.S. R&B chart.[2] In the UK The Drifters' recording reached #2 in December 1960.[3] This single was produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, two noted American music producers who at the time had an apprentice relationship with a then-unknown Phil Spector. Although he was working with Leiber and Stoller at the time, it is unknown whether Spector assisted with the production of this record; however, many Spector fans have noticed similarities between this record and other music he would eventually produce on his own.[4] Damita Jo had a hit with one of the answer songs of this era called "I'll Save The Last Dance For You". On September 9, 1965, the group performed the song live at the Cinnamon Cinder with Charlie Thomas lip-syncing the lyrics of Ben E. King vocals, along with fellow Drifters Johnny Moore and Eugene Pearson on backing vocals. In the song, the narrator tells his lover she is free to mingle and socialize throughout the evening, but to make sure to save him the dance at the end of the night.[5] During an interview on Elvis Costello's show Spectacle, Lou Reed, who worked with Pomus, said the song was written on the day of Pomus' wedding while the wheelchair-bound groom watched his bride dancing with their guests. Pomus had polio and at times used crutches to get around.[6] His wife, Willi Burke, however, was a Broadway actress and dancer. The song gives his perspective of telling his wife to have fun dancing, but reminds her who will be taking her home and "in whose arms you're gonna be."[7] Musicians on the Drifters' recording were: Bucky Pizzarelli, Allen Hanlon (guitar), Lloyd Trotman (bass) and Gary Chester (drums).
Just like old wine this song is so soothing and refreshing in modern times. People who enjoyed it in 1960's will have no regrets.
when I hear the songs I wish I could go back in time play the best days of my life, enjoy God bless
그시절로 되돌아 가고픈 추억의 노래~\~
노래가 정말 너무 평화롭고 낭만적이다~ㅎㅎ 이 시대의 노래가 참 좋았다~!!!
True,
젊은시절 내가 너무너무 좋아했던 곡이에요^^ 그때 그시절 나의 친한 친구들과 이노래 가사외운다고 참 고생했던 생각을하니 아~~~지나가버린 나의 파릇파릇했던 청춘이 너무나 그립고 아쉽네요
반갑습니다, 한국인도 이노래를 좋아하셨어
For me the 50's and 60's were the best decades, we had the best times, never, ever to be repeated. I would love to have a time machine to go back.
정말 너무너무 좋은노래 감사합니다^^ 옛날에 참 좋아했던 추억의 명곡이죠^^
so glad I was born in this era. Such beautiful songs then .We will never get these moments again. So enjoy it all who knows of this time.
What memories of a golden age for me. I feel so lucky and privileged to have grown up in the 50`s and 60`s, loved almost every minute. Great revival of a great song.
Das war meine Zeit damals, wunderschöne Erinnerungen kommen wieder, Super! Da hat man noch toll darauf tanzen können 😃🌹🍀❤️
Very soothing voice. Can listen to this song every day. Lovely. All the beast.
"And don't forget who's taking you home and in whose arms you're gonna be .." ♥️
Takes me back to our hey days where life can be so full of fun & free, so unlike the caged & hopeless moments we're feeling now. Nostalgia ♡♡♡
It sounds like the girl was having fun with everyone all night long and then the poor idiot was there to take her back home after all. lol
