I'm 76, this song was playing when I went into basic training March 1970... don't recall who it was by... maybe Joe Robinson... DaNang area of 'Nam Nov. '70-'71...
9th Grade, High School. Got a battery operated Record Player and Love On A Two-Way Street for my birthday, 1970. I'm 68 years old and I can still blow this song And do the dances.
1970. Those were the days. I’d not exchange the memories for anything. Hit, after hit, after hit. All from the palm of your hand and an AM portable radio. ❤
When I was dating my wife of 52 years and counting we would listen to this song on the car radio 1970 beautiful rrendition of lost love sad but romantic .
I was lucky enough to see them in concert in '74. They were the opening act for Al Green. The entire audience sang along...a real moment (pun not intended).
I met her when I was 16. I went into the service. We saw each other over the years for a while. It’s been 23 years since I have seen her. I still dream once and a while of holding her hand or seeing her in a wedding dress. This is my favorite song and it is her to me. Can not listen with out tears flowing down my face. This is what Soul music is about. I am 66+ now and still feel a love for her as strong as ever. I always will as long as I have this song.
The best era of pop music. Bands played like hell for peanuts, no money. But their songs live on. They inspired millions of people and inspired many childbirths. Long live 70s Soul!
@@minako134 everybody deserves money if they work for it. Nothing should ever be handed to you on a plate unless your incapable of living in a society.
Omgosh so I was right all along!! Your the only person so far that knows it came out in 1968!!! And not on 69'. And bcz it said 1970 I was in disbelief. But I lived in L.A. 1968-69, Then back in Hawaii this song arrived in 1970.
I'm like Jerry, I want to thank people and the generation before us that left us with such wonderful music. Stacy Lattisaw released her rendition of the song, the elders let us know, this isn't a new song.
This song reminds me of the basement parties my sisters would have with the red light. I was about 7 or 8 yrs old wishing i could go down there. I told my sisters, when i get old enough i wont invite you to my party. Well, I got old and they got older and didn't want to party. lol.
Yes, lost on a two way street. Goodness brings back memories reminds of my parents dancing to this now I see why. ❤️ Miss seeing my parents dancing together. Hope their Dancing in heaven married for 45 years. Omg how did they ever put up with each other that long. ❤️
First song that I ever slow-danced to. I was 13 y.o. in 1970 and was at a dance at my elementary school (8th grade). I'll always remember you, Dana Ward (R.I.P.) and Lisa Farrington.
@@stevenmyhre2242 Yes! It sounds like 1967. Definitely a hit that sounds like it came out during the peak of the Vietnam war. 1970-71 was a continuation of mid to late 60s vibes since the decade was barely starting.
I am still listening to this song, October 4, 2020. I was in the 9th grade in 1970 at Whitted Junior High School in Durham, North Carolina when this song came out. That was 50 years ago and so much has happened in my life good and bad. I miss this music and old friendships from back in the day in school.
For me, it was 1971, and I really thought I had found love on a 2 way street, I still know her after all these years. I hope she remembers back then when I met her.
1970: all-time masterpiece 2022: all-time masterpiece There really is no precedent for this song. It's one of the most beautifully produced masterpieces I've ever heard. Desert island kinda thing ❤
True love ❤️ comes from the heart ♥️. it’s not so much about beauty. it’s the heart ♥️. oh yeah, this will always be one of my favorite songs.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
And then Hip Hop and Rap came along, and these beautiful, romantic songs were put on the shelf and marked “old school” or “outdated”. Not in my home. We still appreciate the old songs that appreciate women, not insult them.
In these days In these times When is it ever a "Two way Street." Lord may you bless others with abounding love that consists of two ways, both sides of the street not one sided love but bless those who are willing to receive. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
Heard this tune for the 1st time about 18 years ago. My computer crashed and I couldn't remember the title. I spent ages looking through lists of soul songs with love in the title. Thought I'd never find it again. Never forgot it though. Today is a happy day. To be that memorable a song after hearing once is pretty amazing.
These new artist or songs will never have a chance in lyrical or meaning in touching the inner feelings of life without their interpretation of what they need to sing about to get recognition to become famous and sell their souls in the process for fame.
I was a young girl and my big cousin would take me to the shows at the Loews Palace in DC. I would go back and show my friends the steps the next day. WOW! I miss those innocent days.
such great memories from this song !!!!! Miss those times, where times were simple, and Music was the best !!! will always love my New London memories!!!!!!
In an era when soul classic after soul classic was released, this massive hit, which held onto the number one spot for five weeks 50 years ago this spring, turned out to be the apex for Washington, D. C. 's, The Moments. Featuring the Eddie Kendricks-like vocal performance of the late Johnny Moore, at least 20 other significant artists covered it afterward including Aretha Franklin and Marvin Gaye. Still, no one could reach the depths that Moore hit here - one of the most heartfelt and searing vocal performances in soul history. If you were making a greatest hits package of the musical year, 1970, you would have to include this ballad as one of the premier songs of that period
If you’re here for this song and reading this you have great taste in music 🎵🎵😎.
Bullseye 🎯.! You too 👍🏻🇺🇸👏😎!!!
so do you...
U got it right 👍
Classic
OK, why is "and reading this" part of what constitutes "great taste"?? SMH
In 1970 i was 17 and now I am 71 thank God for old school music still listening in 2024❤🎉🎉

This, and Stacy Lattisaws' version are pure golden memories to me. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song is timeless. It was my very fist 45 record that I purchased at the age of 16. Played it over and over again. Love it! Love it today♥
I was lucky enough to see them in concert in '74. They were the opening act for Al Green. The entire audience sang along...a real moment (pun not intended).
One of the best songs of the 70’s
U got it babe
I randomly started singing this song today. I just had to hear it. It's been years.
It stays in your head 😊
Thanks grandpa for showing real music
Ha r u my granddaughter ?

"Best era of pop music" "bands played for peanuts, no money" ......... Uh, that sounds awful though. Musicians deserve $$$ for the art they give us!!
TRUE DAT! SO FREAKING REAL!
@@minako134 everybody deserves money if they work for it. Nothing should ever be handed to you on a plate unless your incapable of living in a society.
I love on a one-way Street my love is in heaven read this first four years ago it seems like you was yesterday I will forever love you❤❤😅😢
I swear this song hits every time I hear it❗❗👏👏
Me too, my mother loved this song.
Yes old school Royalty I like Stacey Lattisaw version too
Timeless...Love Love It ❤❤
This is it. This is golden.
Love it !!! I was about 10 years old when this first came out . I'm 60 now and it still sounds just as great as when I first heard it .
I'm 67 brings best the greatest memories
Me too love it!
The MOMENTS belong in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame.
Lovemoldmschool music gives u such a warm feeling inside
To be fooled is a hurting thing, but to be loved and fooled is a crying shame...
yo! it aint nothing like flipping through these old school songs to get you through these tough times y'all
I remember these days listening to the delfonics and stylistics also, omg....brings back so many memories.
Great times
This song love on a two way street 1968 was the first oldie i heard back in 1985 and fell in love with it ...abraham
Omgosh so I was right all along!! Your the only person so far that knows it came out in 1968!!! And not on 69'. And bcz it said 1970 I was in disbelief. But I lived in L.A. 1968-69, Then back in Hawaii this song arrived in 1970.
So many memories they don’t make them like this anymore ♥️
This is what is called MUSIC. Nuff said
When Music, Was Music.
Man Oh Man, such a GREAT SONG!!!! Miss when Music meant something, unlike now....These songs will ALWAYS be on my playlist...
If you play this in a jukebox, almost everyone sings along!
This melody is extremely melancholy and soothing to soul. The original version is the best one here.
Yes - it is sooooo soul - tearing --- many songs back then in this time period were like this! "Tragic" songs were what I believe they were called.
I like this cover. This is not the original. It was first released by Lezli Valentine in 1968.Stacy Lattisaw did a nice cover as well.
I also like the version by stacy lattisaw.
@@may5588 this is the original version of the song.
@@richardjanes976 This is not the original version! The original version was done by Lesli Valentine! Stop commenting without doing some research!
I love you dad, mom miss you and thanks for the music and memories.
6/5/22 MY LOVE FOR ALL KINDS OF MUSIC BROUGHT ME HERE TODAY!!!
Released in March 1970...got to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100...and got to #1 for 5 weeks on the Soul charts...CLASSIC!!!
thanks for the info man.Nice to see people are into real music instead of todays trash.
@@frankolsen9304 not everything is trash but maybe maistream music
Fort Campbell K.Y. Bowling alley, drinking beer and eating hotdogs, this song played all day on the motorola🤩😎
I wasn’t yet a teen. Good music I can still remember.
Not yet 2 yrs old in March 70.
a classic beautiful song from 1970 and brings back much good memories!
70s baby
On Army KP while in Basic Training first time I ever heard this song on big console stereo in mess hall. Liked it immediately.
Crazy cool 😊
I'm like Jerry, I want to thank people and the generation before us that left us with such wonderful music. Stacy Lattisaw released her rendition of the song, the elders let us know, this isn't a new song.
BEAUTIFUL SONG - HAUNTING VOICE - GREAT VOICE THOUGH!!!!
BACKGROUND VOCALS ARE GOOD TOO!!!!
An awesome classic gem from 1970 and a million seller! God bless!
Im currently playing this song to my 3 year old so he knows what real music is.
This song reminds me of the basement parties my sisters would have with the red light. I was about 7 or 8 yrs old wishing i could go down there. I told my sisters, when i get old enough i wont invite you to my party. Well, I got old and they got older and didn't want to party. lol.
Yes, lost on a two way street. Goodness brings back memories reminds of my parents dancing to this now I see why. ❤️ Miss seeing my parents dancing together. Hope their Dancing in heaven married for 45 years. Omg how did they ever put up with each other that long. ❤️
Love, Love this song..... a song with real emotions.....The good old days!!! The best time ever !!!!!
It’s one of the best. Definitely on my playlist.
susan b. Love this song, reminds me of the skating rink couples only.
@@davidreyes5144 oh yes don't forget the skating rinks Rollerland skating rink Columbus Ohio great times and great memories.
First song that I ever slow-danced to. I was 13 y.o. in 1970 and was at a dance at my elementary school (8th grade). I'll always remember you, Dana Ward (R.I.P.) and Lisa Farrington.
A song written in 1968, but made and released in March 1970. It still has a strong late 60s feel.
Ya great 60s feel ❤
@@stevenmyhre2242 Yes! It sounds like 1967. Definitely a hit that sounds like it came out during the peak of the Vietnam war. 1970-71 was a continuation of mid to late 60s vibes since the decade was barely starting.
@@ThanksForTheFreePressya 1970 a lady I met that's when I heard it ❤
What a magical song! I'm glad that it at least went to #1 on Billboard's Soul Chart that year (should have been #1 on ALL the charts).
It should still be on the charts
Totally
Thé best music ever ! I miss the 70 s
Ya I agree 😊😊
Met a woman I loved with it❤
I've always preferred this version
Same... -Hi army!- 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Jaggy Babeh yeah they remake wasn’t that good
What's the other version?
N P ruclips.net/video/m6T-B155p0Y/видео.html there you go
Jaggy Babeh is there really "another" version.. I mean really?😜
I am still listening to this song, October 4, 2020. I was in the 9th grade in 1970 at Whitted Junior High School in Durham, North Carolina when this song came out. That was 50 years ago and so much has happened in my life good and bad. I miss this music and old friendships from back in the day in school.
Perfect song for a love sick teenager like I was in 1970, great for feeling melancholy.
My Mom picked me up from kindergarten. She said, "Can you believe it's 1970!?!"
For me, it was 1971, and I really thought I had found love on a 2 way street, I still know her after all these years. I hope she remembers back then when I met her.
Just found myself singing this song to myself, so here I am, listening to this great oldie September of 2021.
Me too
This fills so magical
THE GREATEST SONG OF ALL TIME, Brother Monroe Dey El Bey 7 MOORISH EMPIRE CHEROKEE.
1970: all-time masterpiece

1970 again. What a year for music. One hit after another.
Probably the most beautiful song ever written.
"She held me in desperation ..... and then she walked out"
I did that!!! HUGE mistake!!! Still suffering today!!!
@@rubyhill6367 How long has it been?
A classic time in music, when love forcefully gripped the emotion. This beautiful song, certainly, amplified strong feelings from that era!
Here after griffy. Loving this song
Rocio Pinto Mon haha me too brother 😂
Beyond Thought for real bruhh
Yeah knew of it before because of the Jay-Z sample but Griffy put it back in my head
Same 🤣
TURN,IT OFFFF.
And then Hip Hop and Rap came along, and these beautiful, romantic songs were put on the shelf and marked “old school” or “outdated”. Not in my home. We still appreciate the old songs that appreciate women, not insult them.
In these days
In these times
When is it ever a "Two way Street."
Lord may you bless others with abounding love that consists of two ways, both sides of the street not one sided love but bless those who are willing to receive. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
Amen! 💖💖💖

Hi! Here to remind you of this great song! =￣ω￣=
❤
1970 was a fabulous year for great music... maybe the best one in my lifetime and this song is an example why....
Love on a Two Way Street what a great song now and back in my time. Brings back old memories.
To be loved and fooled is a cryin shame! Been there a few times but it made me a stronger person
True that
They sang this song, the best!!
This song always made me want to cry when I was a kid. So beautiful and sad.
I remember slow dancing to this at school dances. A truly heartfelt song for sure!
Love-Love- What a Fantastic song right here..... I need this song to play over and over,,,,
Great music Papo Torres
Beautiful voice..right up there with the amazing Russell Thompkins of the Stylistics!
I love falsetto singers
How about Harry Ray and Eddie Kendricks
Good comparison - I love both groups!! Had records from both groups and this brings back so many memories!!
And Eugene Record of the Chilites
Eddie kendricks an RON BANKS
These new artist or songs will never have a chance in lyrical or meaning in touching the inner feelings of life without their interpretation of what they need to sing about to get recognition to become famous and sell their souls in the process for fame.
This is the very best....
Beautiful version. The lead singer in this song is Billy Brown.
I love this version!
To me this song has so much meaning 1971 junior hight School.True Love .
Now I call old school soul a national treasure
I was a young girl and my big cousin would take me to the shows at the Loews Palace in DC. I would go back and show my friends the steps the next day. WOW! I miss those innocent days.
Teresa Johnson this song reminds me of couples only at the skating rink
D.C., the Howard, Warner, & Lincoln theaters had classy classic concerts during the 60's and 70's. Summer in the DMV back the day, Chocolate City.
@Teresa Johnson Yes...! I’m from DC and I use to Lowe’s Palace & Mark IV Supper Club to see them with other groups like Choice Four, etc...
True Love Will Never Dies I couldn't have said it better myself
Very true, true love is there to stay. 49 years later, still waiting
I love yu Sheena Dacosta.. we're sister the scene sentiments!
