Sorry to say but adults an minors don't mix an he played the song to you to normalize an sexualize that you're 16 it's not good idea to have him around kids, it's not the number it's the brain difference. ALSO THE MEN WHO MADE THE SONG ARE LIKE 30
This song 🎵 reminds me of my sister when she was 16 she played this song everyday on her record player she had the vinal 33 and I was 6 years old soon I learned this song and we would sing it together she has been gone now for nine years when I hear this song I close my eyes 👀 and she is right here with me 💯🙏🙏❤❤
My boyfriend Mark Ch took me to see them when they came to the Sport Center in Kentucky. I was almost 16, great memories. He join the military and never seen him again, but when I hear this song I think of him, wonder how he is doing after all these yrs. Isn't it amazing how music reconnects us to beautiful monents in our life💕🙌
I’m 58 and I know I’m going to sound like the “old guy” by saying this, but music was sooooooo much better back in the day. You just don’t hear songs like this anymore. These songs were like 3 minute stories. Well thought out.
Thanks for making me feel so good!! I’m 34 and these songs are better than what’s on the radio anyday!! Reminds me of the parents I’ll never get to see again xxoo big loves to all of you ❤
Everything else has improved, while the music has fallen off a cliff. We were truly fortunate to have grown up in the glory years of the late 60's and early '70s. I'm 60. This year!
My first love was 16 and I was 18. We went our separate ways after I joined the Army. We reconnected in 2009. We are still very good friends and talk regularly. When I hear this song I am taken back to 1975
This song was written and performed by Sam Cooke in nineteen fifty nine ( the year I was born). Dr. Hook and the medicine show performed this song in nineteen seventy five. It was definitely a hit at this time. Great song and a Great performance.
This is one of the GREATEST songs EVER !!! Ive listened to this song ever since it came out and it makes me cry every time i listen to it . Great song .
Here for the memories! GREAT memories! Dr. Hook was a part of the soundtrack to my youth. No videos when I was young, just album covers. Looking at this video now it strikes me that when I'd hear this song on the radio as a teenager, these guys were NOT who I pictured in my mind singing it. lol Watched some of their other early live performances and I was quite entertained... surprisingly entertained. Dr Hook ❤
Dr Hook had some of the greatest songs of the 70's and even into the 80's... this song was always special to me... along with Sharing The Night Together.... but in the end my life turned out to be more like Sylvia's Mother and Everybody's Making It Big But Me.
Are you from Newborough by any chance Victor ? Ray Sawyer from Dr Hook is now deceased so that only leaves Dennis Locorriere. He is 72 now, he still tours. He did come out in 2014 and I think 2017 and his website has plans for 2022 so he is still definitely playing. He doesn't tour as Dr Hook however.
Santo DIOS pero que atinado, año 76 , recordar es seguir viviendo, no savia que desian, siempre me gustó, Dr. Hook tiene 6 más, buenísimas para mí, hoy paso ya 62 años a DIOS Grasias.
From one of great years in music history 1975 this remake of a Sam Cooke song was a big hit for them reached number 6 on Billboard pop singles chart. a very good remake of this song.
Back in the day when they were old enough to Bleed ' they're old enough to Breed! Another song that was black balled from the music industry was Benny margonis(into the night ! Also kISs c!hristine sixteen!
THE DRAG OF SIXTEEN The rooster is a showman which the chicks adore, from girl to a mature woman, the principple sticks for sure. I felt deeper than romance, i was the same age, but a girl loves performance, then love becomes a cage. Teen girls are just loving the idea of romance. Flee if they start glowing, you get no second chance! Yes,she was sixteen, should I have known? It hit me like light'nin the day she was gone!
My first date with my husband was on November the 13 th 1970 11 days before my 16th birthday and it was set up by his friend but I was not supposed to be on a date. After 2 hours into the date this song was on the radio and he asked me to marry him. We were married on September 15 1971 and he passed away on April 18 2018. My father said the day we married he gave it 2 years.
This song was NOT banned by the BBC. The Dr Hook version was in the top 40 in the UK, an earlier version by a different artist (not Sam Cooke) was #1. Dr Hook's "Cover of the Rolling Stone," was banned by the BBC because it mentioned Rolling Stone magazine and was therefore considered a "plug" for the product and, thus, inappropriate.
@@buskman3286 Sorry mate, but Dennis Locorriere says it was banned. See below, he was asked in a 2021 interview (link at end) and replied : Is it also true that Dr Hook had two songs banned by the BBC? Yes. They banned The Cover Of Rolling Stone, not because of the line, “I got a freaky old lady name of Cocaine Katie”, but because they thought we were selling a brand name.

Im now 67 but i still love to listen to Golden Oldies
What do you think of this version that I remastered ? ruclips.net/video/qFp6WDYQx14/видео.html
Love this song. My boyfriend was 18 and I 16, and he would play this song for me all the time. Happy to say, we are still together after 35 years.

So true, music moves us, clams us, creates memories, can devide us and bring us together yet it is only a vibration.
Dr. Hook's music was used at my wedding. Who if not you was our wedding song
Dr Hock 💓💓👍👍
The tone & purity, Dennis has an insatiable voice , the last few notes goes down in History ❤️2021
These were the best days of my life. SHERELL HILL. ALABAMA USA. 2022.

try growing up in the 90s,with the advent of grunge rock...my glory days
I'm 31 and I totally agree !

I freakin love Dennis! Wow, what talent!
Old Time favorite and forever
I HAD THE GREAT PRIVILEDGE OF SEEING THEM IN CONCERT ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC A WONDERFUL HAPPY SPECIAL GOLDEN MEMORY FOR ME 👍💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Two kids ....in love... we've all been there. Love this song.
Mischievous looks between the two of them….love it.🥰
Probably because they have some 16 year olds waiting for them backstage.
Maybe..😅
My first love was 16 and I was 18. We went our separate ways after I joined the Army. We reconnected in 2009. We are still very good friends and talk regularly. When I hear this song I am taken back to 1975
Nice story. Thank you for your service.
@@anonymousperson3433 , It was my pleasure. God Bless
This is STILL one of my favorite songs! ☺
Amen Sista..
Amazing Group
They joy in their faces brings me to tears
I am 82 and the only music I listen to today are Oldies (40's thru early 80's ). For me POP music ended in the 80's. LOVE this group.
I have a few DR Hook videos on my channel, make sure you check them out
This song was written and performed by Sam Cooke in nineteen fifty nine ( the year I was born). Dr. Hook and the medicine show performed this song in nineteen seventy five. It was definitely a hit at this time. Great song and a Great performance.
Love seeing Jance in videos of Dr Hook.
RIP Jance.
This is one of the GREATEST songs EVER !!! Ive listened to this song ever since it came out and it makes me cry every time i listen to it . Great song .
Just an outstanding vocal, so beautifully expressed!
Im 53 and remember this music way back when.Great band great music.
I loved this song years ago but never paid attention to the musicians until I started listening to it again. Dennis has such a wonderful voice
Words cannot describe how this song makes me feel. Truly a musical masterpiece. ❤️
Perhaps the best song of their entire run. And boy, did they have a lot of great songs!
How to pick just one?
I can smell the beer on that microphone from 45 years away.
Lol

From one of great years in music history 1975 this remake of a Sam Cooke song was a big hit for them reached number 6 on Billboard pop singles chart. a very good remake of this song.
Old Song The Best!
Always remember. The song is about to kids that were the same age. Both started out at 16.
You mean two kids?
Yeah - and the critics blasted them!
🖤
ICH LIEBE DIESE GRUPPE 🤗😘😘👍👍❤❤❤❤
My dad sang this song at 22
My mom was 16 and pregnant lol
I played this song when I only had 16 subscribers on my kimberly longman channel.
Back in the day when they were old enough to Bleed ' they're old enough to Breed! Another song that was black balled from the music industry was Benny margonis(into the night ! Also kISs c!hristine sixteen!

Hello Tammy Atwood. Palestine TX , 1974 - 1975
Why only 134k views? 😐 what happen people
They are funny to watch.Talagang kahanga-hanga ang pagkakaibigan nina Ray at Dennis, higit pa sa tunay na magkakapatid.🎶💖😊
These two freak me out.
16 when song started 66 @end great and bad memories
THE DRAG OF SIXTEEN
The rooster is a showman
which the chicks adore,
from girl to a mature woman,
the principple sticks for sure.
I felt deeper than romance,
i was the same age,
but a girl loves performance,
then love becomes a cage.
Teen girls are just loving
the idea of romance.
Flee if they start glowing,
you get no second chance!
Yes,she was sixteen,
should I have known?
It hit me like light'nin
the day she was gone!
this is music...not today.s rap shit. i call rap shit yaba daba do music.
My first date with my husband was on November the 13 th 1970 11 days before my 16th birthday and it was set up by his friend but I was not supposed to be on a date. After 2 hours into the date this song was on the radio and he asked me to marry him. We were married on September 15 1971 and he passed away on April 18 2018.

Don't give your heart too fast
Nice. Haven’t heard this version, only Sam cooks version.
I remastered this video in 4K here ruclips.net/video/qFp6WDYQx14/видео.html
R.I.P Dad
way to sing Dennis
d
Who is the 1 fool who didn't like this song ??????
There are 3 - crazy
Was nt me
err, 5 ..... A billion flies!!!!!!
Now 7
@Steve Bivens Or a Gay Republican.. Or A Rino.. Like Roomney or Ben Sass.
I was 18 & she was 16... too young? I'm now 60... Can I date a 58 yr. old now? LOL
Nope, she's too young to be married,
Too young to be free...
But what can you do when she's gonna have a baby?
Banned by the BBC? WTF?
Good question I wonder why i think age of consent is 16 right? Weird maybe Doctor Hook did something to piss them off.

Wish I was sixteen again
She was only sixteen, she was a baked bean. 😁
If this was an R. Kelly song it would have been slapped on as a charge 😮
Ray was 39 when he sang this... :)
16 will get you 20...
Not if you're sixteen too
