      Ahhh! Naming cars. . . .
      I remember when cars had enough personality that they had, (earned), names.
      In my case I had cars like:
      The "Cherry Bomb" - a bright red VW beetle with a CB antenna sticking out of the top.
      The "Motley Crew ", (pun intended!) - another VW beetle that was assembled from parts from many different model years, and you needed to know the "year" of the part you wanted when you went to buy a replacement.
      Along with other, equally interesting cars that I owned from back then that had a sense of character and personality.
      Now they're just computers on wheels. They aren't bad, they work well, and the computer assistance is a good thing, but it seems we lost something along the way. . .
      I stopped naming my cars when they started going electronic.

    Nothing like listening to this song on a warm summers evening while seated on the bench seat of my 1953 Buick Special 4 door...with my arm around my best girl. The song mingles with the music of the crickets and cicadas. The only light comes from the soft glow of the radio dial and dashboard...soft light, not the harsh light on today's cars. At that one moment, everything was perfect...everything was safe...everything was exactly the way it should be...everything was right with the world.

  • @bobhess7434

    The fact that the lead singer (who has a WONDERFUL voice) seems a little uncomfortable and self-conscious being on camera actually makes the song even sweeter and more charming. I wonder how old they are here. There is another American Bandstand clip of their other huge hit, Come Softly to Me, on RUclips as well, and he has the same quality in that video. And it makes the performance even more appealing on that tune as well. Cause he just seems like some regular guy with a broken heart. The young women seems more comfortable and confident here than they do on Come Softly to Me. Both recordings are just so beautiful and perfect--two of my favorite singles of all time.

The court ruled and he lost.

    Our guardian star lost all his glow
    The day that I lost you
    He lost all his glitter the day you said "No"
    And his silver turned to blue
    Like him, I am doubtful that your love is true
    But if you decide to call on me
    Ask for Mr. Blue
    I'm Mr. Blue (wah-a-wah-ooh)
    When you say you love me (ah, Mr. Blue)
    Then prove it by goin' out on the sly
    Provin' your love isn't true
    Call me Mr. Blue
    I'm Mr. Blue (wah-a-wah-ooh)
    When you say you're sorry (ah, Mr. Blue)
    Then turn around, head for the lights of town
    Hurtin' me through and through
    Call me Mr. Blue
    I stay at home at night (I stay at home)
    Right by the phone at night (right by the phone)
    But you won't call
    And I-I won't hu-urt my pride (call me Mr.)
    I won't tell you (wah-a-wah-ooh)
    While you paint the town (ah, Mr. Blue)
    A bright red to turn it upside down
    I'm paintin' it too
    But I'm paintin' it blue
    Call me Mr. Blue (wah-a-wah-ooh)
    Call me Mr. Blue (wah-a-wah-ooh)
    Call me Mr. Blue

    So many people justifiably rave about the vocal harmonies in this (and other Fleetwoods songs) but credit is also due to the "hidden" Instrumentalist backing up the singers. The musicians cradled the vocalists with just the right amount of sound... but never too much. Make note of the horn (perhaps a Flügel horn?) playing tasteful lines in support of those lovely singing voices. This beauty has been lost to time.

    I fell in love with this song when I was around 12, it was an oldie (but not too old) and I had to wait and wait until it was played. This song takes you DEEP, that's how it made me feel, it took me to another place. Watching this video, it's as if he's in a trance, and the women are from his psyche, like they are muses, not flesh-and-bone but rather spirits. Fantastic.

    I went to watch Art Garfunkel in concert in 2008, and he gave a guest spot for his son and daughter. His son James sang this song and it was the highlight of the night for me, despite all the Simon & Garfunkel classics. Strangely I'd never heard of it prior to that night. There's no mention anywhere online of James Garfunkel singing it.
