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.
Here too, I'm 71 now and I remember listening to this song in the 70s on an eight track in my 68 Impala. It's great to get away from this world and get back to better music, better times.
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 .
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.
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 am now 78 yrs old and this kind of music is the real deal soulful heart felt understandable no degrading women simply love I walk with this music young people today need to learn this is music
@@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.
My girlfriend and I were 15 and crazy about each other. This was our song. I sang it to her and we sang it each other all summer in 1970. She was my first love, but just like the song, I lost her that fall. This song will always have a place in my heart.
For me, it was summer 1971 ( i was 17 ) ... I was slow dancing with her and fell hook, line, and sinker ... Now I'm 70, and still enjoying my oldies but goodies
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.
It was three piece suits and groups in the 70’s. You’d tune in the Soul Train and you see the groups impeccably dressed and doing them steps. They were iconic and we held on every word. Even tried to do a little solo act to our girlfriends while we drew close together on a dance floor. Yes as time grew the love went out of those beautiful songs replaced with strong gritty words about the inner city . Now a lot of these songs are used as the hook for some these raps songs . As the world turns . I was right there graduating in 1972 . What a time . LB November 14, 2023 Tuesday morning 4:09am
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 ❤
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. ❤
Nah, I know that N.Y., and other big cities like in L.A. they always gets the first of first hits, I was in L.A. when this song came out at the end of 1969. Even though it says 1970 thats when it reached to Hawaii then.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Came across your comment and I had to say something. You’re right. I’m not entirely sure what this song’ s about-as the lyrics are a little cryptic-but it wraps a peculiar type of haunting nostalgia around the listener that seems to suggest the relationship in question wasn’t entirely healthy, more like a ‘trauma bond’ or something. The relationship I’m in right now is like that. The intimacy is all but gone; all that’s left is the complacency of being around each other. We’ve just gotten used to it. Love’ s not always enough, and sometimes you have to turn the page and leave each other behind in order to grow. That lingering nostalgic longing remains, tho 😢
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.
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.
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.
It's because they were singing to show their emotion and tell their story. Now-a-days it's more about "look how I look" "look what I can do with my voice".
@@Talkinonthetube - _"Look what I can do with my voice"?_ ...Are you talking about auto-tune? Because that's all anyone DOES with their voice, now a days

Thanks grandpa for showing real music

A song written in 1968, but made and released in March 1970. It still has a strong late 60s feel.

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 love great soul music how does it get better than this??
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!
And here at my ripe age of 49 I thought this was a Stacy Lattisaw original. Shame on me. Love this version too.

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♥
Thé best music ever ! I miss the 70 s
Ya I agree 😊😊
Met a woman I loved with it❤
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.

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.
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!

Music created and performed by real human musicians. Ain't nothing like the real thing!
I remember these days listening to the delfonics and stylistics also, omg....brings back so many memories.
Great times

It should still be on the charts

If you play this in a jukebox, almost everyone sings along!
Jay z feat Alicia keys - new york... Brought me back here again

This music was the best all times
The doo wop of the 50's lead to the soul of the 60's and 70's. Some of the greatest music ever made. It just doesn't get any better.
and never will. These were the best music era.
This music has its roots in doo-wop. but the lyrics have deeper meaning than 50"s era music, IMO.
Yeah
Nah, I know that N.Y., and other big cities like in L.A. they always gets the first of first hits, I was in L.A. when this song came out at the end of 1969. Even though it says 1970 thats when it reached to Hawaii then.
Like fine wine!
Gosh i was only 13 yrs old in 1970 but remember this song on STATION 😅 MEMORIES
Same here. And this was at a time when The Jackson 5 was hot for a lot of us. To me, this topped a lot of J5 songs back then.
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 😊
Im 65 and this song is one of many oldies that reminds me of some one I'll never forget him 😊
Music will never be this good!
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

70s baby
yo! it aint nothing like flipping through these old school songs to get you through these tough times y'all
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
When people could sing.
It's because they were singing to show their emotion and tell their story.
Now-a-days it's more about "look how I look" "look what I can do with my voice".
And it still is the music. We invest in music soley for the purpose of ones satisfaction. Anytime, any place. Any year
Music is the action of your soul.
Falsetto, no less!
