Jerry, this was me and my husband's song when we married 60 years ago in 1962. We danced to it at our 25th and 40th anniversary partys.. my husband has had strokes for 26 years but the other night I held him up for balance and we swayed to it for few minutes without his walker. He is 83 and I am 80. You are big part of our life. Merry Christmas and may the new year be kind to you and good health to you. I've watched every recording I can find of you singing "Make it Easy on Yourself" over the 60 years as you kept singing it. My favorite is the deep soul version on the TV show "Soul" with the 4 girls swaying / singing backup for you. We watch it very often. Take care friend. Keep singing. 🎶🎶🎶
On this day in 1962 {June 25th} Jerry Bulter performed "Make It Easy On Yourself" on the late Dick Clark's American Bandstand... Two weeks later on July 7th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100; eventually it peaked at #20 and spent 11 weeks in the Top 100... Three years later in 1965 the Walker Brothers covered it; and on Sept. 23rd, 1965 it peaked at #1 {for 1 week} on the United Kingdom's Singles chart {reached #16 in the U.S.A.} In 1970 Dionne Warwick's version reached #37 on the Top 100...

jerry butler always great i love you
OMG that song has to be more than 45 years old and he still sounds good singing it...GO HEAD ON ICE MAN
Recorded it in 1962...60 years ago. He is still magical.
This version more soulful than his original recording. Would live to find this particular single or it's album.
Lord, he still sounded good! The great Jerry Butler!
