What a beautiful moment to remember! I still miss my Daddy and it's been a long time since he's been gone, but you NEVER forget them! I was ALWAYS a Daddy's girl!
i want this kind of music on the radios again. Young people need it.

Sorry not gonna happen. I wish it would but hip hop dominates now. I'm only 40 so I grew up on hip hop and I love the good rap but I love this music too
This so makes me think of my Dad who died just short of the millennium. I'm crying even as I text. I miss my Dad, and I'm 72 years old. It never goes away, especially when listening to music like this.
I know what you mean Liz. I'm 70 years old and I lost my Mom this last March 27. It hasn't been very long so that's why it still hurts a lot. I try to look at it like at least I had my Mom for 70 years. I suppose it's never easy huh?
Groundhog day cemented in my mind the image of this song being like snuggling up with your better half in a warm, cozy blanket on a cold winter's night.
I was born in 1962 and throughout my school days I was ridiculed about my taste in music but I didn't flinch Ray Charles Dean Martin Sam Cooke and Elvis Presley were my heroes and always will be 🤩🤩🤩
Those are my favorite singers too and I'm 36 they will always be the best singers in history no shame in loving thier music the oldies are the best kind of music to listen to
Every time, every time I listen to this song my vision gets blurry, throat feels heavy. It's not just the lyrics or the composition, it's also the way Mr. Ray Charles renders the song pouring out all his emotions.
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
This era of record production in my opinion was the pinnacle of all recorded music. Brilliant, emotive, lush -- the bass lines themselves are to die for. Listen to the strings and choral work and the stereo mix. It feels completely live and we're right in the middle of the mix. So grand.
This NEVER gets old, my mom is 85 years old and she visits often and I have a man cave with a full kitchen etc, we always dance to this song, after she takes a lil nip of crown apple...lol
I was in grade school when I first started listening to Ray Charles. His music is timeless, and I still very much enjoy it. He put more soul and feeling into his music than just about any male singer I can think of. He is certainly one of a kind.
Phillip Baloyi: Ray Charles music has touched people's hearts for decades. Great music has a way of reaching out to the world. I am happy that this song touches you. Stay healthy!
@@cedarshoals529 this isnt true..in fact it doesnt have a thing to do with lack of courage or failure...where in the world did you ever....get such an idea?
I was born in 1963 a year after Ray released this song. I have been a hard rocker most of my life, But I really Love Ray's version of singing this song by Cindy Walker and Eddy Arnold in 1955. I missed the wonders of growing up in the 60s and when I listen to this I know it must have been so wonderful. R.I.P. Ray ..September 23, 1930, Albany, Georgia, U.S.- June 10, 2004
You give your hand to me And then you say "Hello" And I can hardly speak My heart is beating so And anyone can tell You think you know me well But you don't know me, no No, you don't know the one Who dreams of you each night And longs to kiss your lips And longs to hold you tight To you I'm just a friend That's all I've ever been No, you don't know me I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you, yeah Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by A chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say "Goodbye" And I watched you walk away Beside the lucky guy I know you'll never know The one who loved you so No, you don't know me But I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you I'm afraid and shy, I let my chance go by A chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me And then you say "Goodbye" And I watched you walk away Beside the lucky guy Oh, you'll never ever know The one who loved you so No, you don't know me I say you'll never ever know The one who loved you so No, you don't know me No, you don't know me
@@mikecozzi1040 I heard Rawhide before, and I listened to “Kid’s last fight” for the first time last night. Got sidetracked reading up on Frankie Laine. I really like “I believe” lyrically simple but beautiful!
And she always will be..Just saw mine recently..after 50 years, she’s as beautiful as ever, and I’m just as sad..this song perfectly sums up my feelings..all these years later, and I still cry, thinking about what I wish could have been…..
@James Lannon Get your conservative ass out of here, Elvis doesn’t even come close to this, if you like his version that much better than go listen to it and shut up. This is soul in voice, not a damn peacock. Also @Paula Kaorachi, go listen to Leonard Whiting’s version, I can’t choose between those two, I think you’ll love it ! ❤️
I was 18 when I first heard this song. I had strong feelings for a girl that I knew but I was afraid to let her know how I felt about her for fear of rejection. The words of this song are so true. Ray Charles had such a way of saying it so well. Thanks for the memories.
Ray Charles music is timeless, he may not be here on earth, but his music lives on. He's in heaven singing with the heavenly choir with his amazing voice.
The orchestration and backup singers were fantastic and then there's the golden voice of one of the greats Mr. Ray Charles all together this is one of the best country albums of all time. Thanks Mr. Charles.
I love Elvis’s gentle smooth vocal treatment of this song, a voice that sounded like no other but I also love Ray Charles’s version which is raw and full of soul. Both styles are amazing and very different.
In my youthful time (the 50’s), a friends’ brother showed me his LP covers with 3 different guys wearing thick black rimmed glasses: Buddy Holly, Bo Diddley & Ray Charles & my musical journey began. 70 yrs later & it still holds true…! Thank you Leo 🎵🎶
If You Really Do Love That Someone....Stop the Texting, the DMs, the Facebooks and the Instagrams and Just Slow Dance and Hold Each Other to this Song!
I was seven then, and my sister and I staring dreamily at the ceiling while playing this. You can feel the romantic sadness in this song. This was during Charles' country music era. He mixed country with soul and once said of country music at the time (I'm paraphrasing) was a white soul music. I believe all music is for everyone to hear. And he proved it. What took the soul out of country here in the US? Now it's pablum. But these beautiful songs will last forever. Maybe family were big Ray Charles fans. I saw him live, and it was amazing
Ray Charles inesquecível e maravilhoso. Você sempre bem vindo aos meus sonhos de vida mais lindos . Adoro ouvir você. SEMPRE. Para toda a vida minha e de muitos. Beijos no coração para quem curtiu comigo ou não. AMO VOCÊS. SEMPRE.
This guy and this song just made that scene in Groundhog Day nostalgic. Love the movie and this song. I hope that one day I could dance to this song with my future wife at our wedding.
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
One of the greatest musicians in history. Blinded as a child in Georgia, his loving mother sent him to a state school for the blind in Florida. Knowing his life was going to be tough as a black and blind man she wanted him educated and independent. There he learned piano and eventually setting out as a young man to get far from the south, he went to Seattle and the rest as they say is history. In ‘62/‘62, when the music buzz was wilting he cut the Modern Sounds In Country Music and he brought the people back into the record stores in record breaking droves! “Worried Mind” still the best example of country, blues, jazz combination piano and singing EVER!
Mr Ray Charles has hit the number 1 spot in The Netherlands with many of his beautiful songs, and also this one. I used to sing his music in the bathroom when nobody could hear me, so I thought. I have taken his music with me all over the world. Now I am old and back in Holland where I will take his music with me into my grave.
Poor you... I grew up with this beautiful song and so many more like it; born in 1959. If you want more of this style of music, PLEASE do yourself a favor and listen to Frank Sinatra's Christmas album - it will blow you away....🤗
BEAUTIFUL LOVE ALL SONGS, I'D SIT BY MY MOMMA AS SHE LISTENED TO THIS SONG, I MISS YOU MOMMA, THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC 🎶 I NOW LOVE, 😭😭😭
I remember this song, back when the words "makin' love" were rarely said out loud! Of course, I was very young! I loved anything this man sang and still do, many years later!
Mr. Ray Charles is a Great Legend......My parents loved Ray's music & taught us kids good beautiful music & we still love listening to this Great beautiful singer...RIP Mr. Charles truly loved by hs fans
I sought his songs after seeing Ray... The best chance I took was telling a woman i was crazy about her. We're 2 year's married now. Fellas take a chance worst she can say is no
While so many artists have recreated this song, and some of them have been done well .There is NO way that Mr. Charles' rendition will ever be classified as the 2nd best. THIS is it. The Perfection~~
Reduces me to a puddle of tears every time. And what a handsome man. I’m sure someone told him, hey, you’re not just astronomically talented but you’re good looking too. 👍. Saw him in concert, so glad I had the chance.
I am sure you are right. Eddy Arnold thought of the title and explained that title to others, but it was when he said it to Cindy Walker, that it became the beautiful song, lyrics and melody. Maybe it was touching a lot of people's emotions just a bit too much. I love it and cover it too, but I am an amateur.
Yes DM Spencer ,my Goodness oh the memories ,oh the words to this ,takes me to such a happy place . I'll just well ,never mind . I'm just too full listening to Maestro Charles , Ray your spirit and music. live for ever. This never get old .thanks for comment DM , you put icing on cake .
HAY UP THIS SONG IS ALWAYS PLAYING WHEN I GO TO MY grandy's after football practice on a Sunday for my Sunday dinner I cherish these days bless you grandy, SHE LOVES THIS SONG
Nobody else can light up this song with so much heart and soul as Ray Charles. His was, still is, and will always be my favorite version of this song - the quintessential recording.
Great tune. Ray Charles was one of my Mom's favorite artist and I use to hear this song playing in our home a lot. He is a wonderful pianist and singer!!!
Ray, man, the man could sing. I love the fact that since COVID, so many young people are listening to all the old 60’s and 70’s music I grew up on. Listen to Allison Krauss version, it will make you cry
It’s late at night and somehow I landed here listening to this song thinking back to all the times my mother and I listened to this records when I was growing up. We’re fortunate to have music like this.
![Shenseea - Dating Szn (Options) [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/eUePmZFIXUg/mqdefault.jpg)
During my career as a drummer, I played this tune with Ray many times. Thanks for the memories.
Wow I’m so jealous we don’t have artists even close to this that we other drummers could aspire to play for these days
Wow!! Consider yourself one of the lucky few
Lucky you, who had the possibility to play with him 🙏🤗🎼🎵🎶
Wow.
Masterpiece
memories of a 6-year-old dancing with her dad in the kitchen to this and 60 years later wishing he knew then how much I loved that moment
That is the only positive memory I have of my father.
Misty Blue Your daddy knew...Mine did.😪
that is a beautiful image you have put in my mind...
Misty Blue That’s a great memory! You were blessed! ❤️😘
What a beautiful moment to remember! I still miss my Daddy and it's been a long time since he's been gone, but you NEVER forget them! I was ALWAYS a Daddy's girl!

@Musical Musings From The Basement We need both an afforfable life and a good culture.
I found this track by accident.....best accident that ever happened to me. Btw I’m a young person who has it, lol
I wonder if the internet twins who listen to songs they've never heard have listened to this one!
My Dad died last month. I only know Ray Charles cos of him. Ray was his favourite and became mine too Thanks Dad for everything, I miss you so much.
you'll be ok. It's tough but love endures. You'll feel the same for ever but it will get easier. All my best to you.
@@stevenb5385 Nobody said it's easy. But look how cool he left you...Ray Charles = cool, no matter what.

@@stuartweissman7306 Limping along. Excellent description of my feelings today. It's tougher some days than others.
I understand😢… my family loved this man I grew up hearing his songs 😢
Groundhog day cemented in my mind the image of this song being like snuggling up with your better half in a warm, cozy blanket on a cold winter's night.
Greatest movie
I was wondering why this was in my head the last few days
Same bro. Plays when he's walking with Rita at night and its all snowy, then they have the snowball fight with the kids lol.
After watching the finale of Presumed Innocent this beautiful song was played and has been an earworm all night.
When I think of truly romantic music, I think of this kind of music, not the music we hear today
I was born in 1962 and throughout my school days I was ridiculed about my taste in music but I didn't flinch Ray Charles Dean Martin Sam Cooke and Elvis Presley were my heroes and always will be 🤩🤩🤩
You're a class act, friend.
Those are my favorite singers too and I'm 36 they will always be the best singers in history no shame in loving thier music the oldies are the best kind of music to listen to
I can so relate to this. High school graduate of 1983.

I agree,my eyes fill up when I hear this song,😢
Me too. I love it so much, very nostalgic...
Ditto,it's beautiful 😢
Heard this playing from a restaurant while walking down the street and had to sit and listen to the whole thing, such a beautiful song
How the hell could anyone ever give this marvellous song a 'thumbs down' ??
Most likely rappers and neo-Nazis
Someone who lacks a true appreciation for good, honest, clean lyrics.
Bad memories...?
Who cares ? This is an all time great. Enjoy.
No idea. 🙄 Ray is one of the greatest, and this is one of the greatest songs. 💖
"Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by ...The chance that you might love me, too."

This guy could make you feel good about being sad!
A great explanation !!! 💛💛💛
Så ensam med alla tankar.
Spot on.
Larry Carlin 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏼
I promise you bro he can!!!💯!!
I have to listen to this song almost everyday that I think of it. It's medicine. It just gets better. No side effects
One day my future husband and I are going to dance in our kitchen to this beautiful song, I'm waiting on you my love ❤️🙏 #whereveryouare

It was all so perfect it slays people. I know it gets me every time. ❤️
I'm with you Bill. I bought this 45 with my lunch money as a 15 year old in 1962. To me it was Ray Charles most beautiful song!
So lush!!
That's exactly what I'm talking about - I wish ALL music today sounded like THIS.💖🤗
Absolutely agree!!! I hadn't been born for one year but I totally agree
My dad was a big ray fan. And everytime I play his records I think of him and my mom dancing in the living room
One of the greatest singers who ever lived , absolutely no question ,
amen
am radio, first time 1962 with my dad, timeless
Makes you wonder, who did he and Sinatra listen to?
In my opinion...the most influential artist of the 20th century
Yeah a great singer that never saw anything in life since he was only 8 years old
This song makes me tear up a lot of the times I hear it, for some reason, I don’t even truly know why, it’s just beautiful
This NEVER gets old, my mom is 85 years old and she visits often and I have a man cave with a full kitchen etc, we always dance to this song, after she takes a lil nip of crown apple...lol
What a great post. I have 3 sons, am 76 and have danced with them. It means so much for a mother to dance with her son. Bless you
When. I young . and. shy. dis song. speaking to me. great song some time i play. It 5 time i reputed. daily
The man covered so many styles of music during his lifetime. This is such a beautiful song. What a talent!
I remember when this song came out. yeah, I'm old lol. What a heartbreaker of a song. Ans so universal.

Me. Lol
Me too. Always have loved this song. Beautiful.
Yep
It's one of my favorite movies and I'll be watching it every year till I die 😂

This is my favorite Ray Charles song.Had the honor of seeing him in concert. He did this as well as other timeless classics.
Too many to have a favorite love them all
@@bellestarr4040 same here ! he has so many great albums and singles ! love most of em !
This song is all about love, it’s not about win or lose someone, love is just the feeling that you have for this person.
It's called "unrequited love!"
AMEN!!!!
So true 🤣
Unrequited love (like another commenter said), and how a lack of courage and a failure to "seize the moment" became a missed opportunity.

You give your hand to me
And then you say "Hello"
And I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me, no
No, you don't know the one
Who dreams of you each night
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight
To you I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
No, you don't know me
I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you, yeah
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
A chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
And then you say "Goodbye"
And I watched you walk away
Beside the lucky guy
I know you'll never know
The one who loved you so
No, you don't know me
But I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
I'm afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
A chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
And then you say "Goodbye"
And I watched you walk away

Some songs should just be left alone by everyone else. This is one of them.
The memories of a young teen hearing this in a small Brazilian town on the public address system in 1962..
I'm too young teen, listening to it 🥰
Where are they now, people like Ray. Lost - but never forgotten.

Knowing his life was going to be tough as a black and blind man she wanted him educated and independent. There he learned piano and eventually setting out as a young man to get far from the south, he went to Seattle and the rest as they say is history. In ‘62/‘62, when the music buzz was wilting he cut the Modern Sounds In Country Music and he brought the people back into the record stores in record breaking droves! “Worried Mind” still the best example of country, blues, jazz combination piano and singing EVER!
Mr Ray Charles has hit the number 1 spot in The Netherlands with many of his beautiful songs, and also this one. I used to sing his music in the bathroom when nobody could hear me, so I thought. I have taken his music with me all over the world. Now I am old and back in Holland where
I will take his music with me into my grave.
Wow how did I get to 44 and only just heard this version... Soulful voice that catches the heart..... Dec 2020
I'm 29 and hearing it for the first time. June 2021.
Poor you... I grew up with this beautiful song and so many more like it; born in 1959. If you want more of this style of music, PLEASE do yourself a favor and listen to Frank Sinatra's Christmas album - it will blow you away....🤗
36 and just heard it recently for the first time. His music is so beautiful
BEAUTIFUL LOVE ALL SONGS, I'D SIT BY MY MOMMA AS SHE LISTENED TO THIS SONG, I MISS YOU MOMMA, THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC 🎶 I NOW LOVE, 😭😭😭
I remember this song, back when the words "makin' love" were rarely said out loud! Of course, I was very young! I loved anything this man sang and still do, many years later!
Mr. Ray Charles is a Great Legend......My parents loved Ray's music & taught us kids good beautiful music & we still love listening to this Great beautiful singer...RIP Mr. Charles truly loved by hs fans
Beautiful song by a great singer---I remember it well
Just sung by him. It was written by Cindy Walker
@@briankettleson290, And what a song writer she was.
Glad am around to be able to appreciate these songs
One of the greatest artists off all time a genius
I sought his songs after seeing Ray... The best chance I took was telling a woman i was crazy about her. We're 2 year's married now. Fellas take a chance worst she can say is no
While so many artists have recreated this song, and some of them have been done well .There is NO way that Mr. Charles' rendition will ever be classified as the 2nd best. THIS is it. The Perfection~~
Top class ray he legend..remember my dad loved playing this tune after few beers with me and me bros..love from ireland 👍👍
A giant in music history. A blues, jazz and soul icon, a first class crooner.. and so on and so on ....

Reduces me to a puddle of tears every time. And what a handsome man. I’m sure someone told him, hey, you’re not just astronomically talented but you’re good looking too. 👍. Saw him in concert, so glad I had the chance.
I would be surprised if there wasnt anyone who couldnt relate to this tune.
I am sure you are right. Eddy Arnold thought of the title and explained that title to others, but it was when he said it to Cindy Walker, that it became the beautiful song, lyrics and melody. Maybe it was touching a lot of people's emotions just a bit too much. I love it and cover it too, but I am an amateur.
Ray blew the lid off of country music when he recorded songs like this. He knew just how to pile on the heartache, and country fans loved it.
This song is soooo GORGEOUS !!!...made even more lovely by the VELVET VOICE of Ray Charles....listening to this takes me to a HAPPY PLACE :-)
Yes DM Spencer ,my Goodness oh the memories ,oh the words to this ,takes me to such a happy place . I'll just well ,never mind . I'm just too full listening to Maestro Charles , Ray your spirit and music. live for ever. This never get old .thanks for comment DM , you put icing on cake .

Unforgettable Uncle Ray Charles
HAY UP THIS SONG IS ALWAYS PLAYING WHEN I GO TO MY grandy's after football practice on a Sunday for my Sunday dinner I cherish these days bless you grandy,
SHE LOVES THIS SONG
Nobody else can light up this song with so much heart and soul as Ray Charles. His was, still is, and will always be my favorite version of this song - the quintessential recording.
This is so great can't hardly listen to it all the way through. So good it needs to be relished a little at a time.
So true
Great tune. Ray Charles was one of my Mom's favorite artist and I use to hear this song playing in our home a lot. He is a wonderful pianist and singer!!!
Très belle mélodie , voix unique c' est Ray Charles qui enchante tout ce qu' il interprète dans tous les styles.
The happiest thing in life is when someone love you and you love them back ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Priceless ❤️☺️
Ray, man, the man could sing. I love the fact that since COVID, so many young people are listening to all the old 60’s and 70’s music I grew up on. Listen to Allison Krauss version, it will make you cry
It’s late at night and somehow I landed here listening to this song thinking back to all the times my mother and I listened to this records when I was growing up.
We’re fortunate to have music like this.
Just listen to the great music of Ray Charles. Look at him sit at that piano. All his music is good.
