In Oakland, we had KDIA lucky 13. Love this song, still remember sitting in the backseat of my parents car staring out the window and hearing this on the radio. Miss those days.
I have to say, this is one of the most interesting Northern Soul tunes I have ever heard. I love the way she sings around the beat, like a feather in the wind...it's evocative.
Arguably the greatest of all NS songs, the singer is so special. I still don’t get how a song of this calibre didn’t storm mainstream charts massively, it literally floors me (no pun intended) every single time.
same here...everytime i hear it im like what did they not do, what happened to keep this burner from changing more peoples lives back in the 60s. so very well written of a song and from what i've researched a one-off for the song writer as most other tracks he wrote werent as impactful (imo). hope rita got some shine somewhere along the line from knowing how bada$$ she rocks it on this now legendary song!!
am i the only 12 year old that grew up listening to northern soul? my dad used to play it and now it’s sort of starting an addiction. it’s me and my dads favourite song this one :)
@@grahamyates6570 Don’t think this was ever played at the Wheel (but will stand corrected), most probably at the Casino and after that, so some of us who were there at the beginning would not have heard it, anyway a great sound x
I gave up everything I love, I liked What things I possessed I knew it was wrong, you said you were straight And I did it for you babe And now I see you leave right out of my life My heart cries out I gave you love and my devotion And I gave you my soul Well my love, love, love He's gone with the wind is my love Like a bird in the sky He's gone with the wind is my love I thought he could weather the storms of life, stand by me Through the pains and strife But at the first sign of a breeze, he freezed He fled with the wind Now who can I lean on when all my friends and folks have gone? But I know that they really want to love and to comfort me But who can take away a pain of love, a pain that starts A tear to swell deep in my heart and I, burst into tears Well my love, love, love He's gone with the wind is my love Like a petal on a rose He's gone with the wind is my love I thought he could weather the storms of life, stand by me Through the pains and strife But at the first sign of a breeze, he freezed He fled with the wind Each night I hope and pray for his return My heart still burns, when all I knew was a love so good And I break down and cry Well my love, love, love He's gone with the wind is my love Like a sail on a mast He's gone with the wind is my love My baby he's gone (baby he's gone) He's gone with the wind (gone with the wind) A part of my life (part of my life) He's out of sight (he's gone with the wind) My baby he's gone (baby he's gone)
Elayne you've got the best of both worlds and more: you love punk rock and you gotta HAVE soul to LOVE SOUL. Rita and the Tiaras track is a knockout, just like you! 5x in a row I've listened to "Gone with the wind..." P.s. check out a track by Youth Brigade called "Punk rock mom". Stay sweet!
No you are not😎 Punk Northern. Blues. Reggae. Ska. The list goes on. KTF Hope to see people (those who are left to see, Too many gone. Sadly. My Mick.Morgan. More great Micks Cruisey +Mick H Too many 😢 Hey, They would want us dancing Lu 🐝
I never ever grow tired of listening to Northern and this is an example of our fantastic music. Only 62 and just want to give it large on the floor even though the reality is its in my head only!
I'm Right Back At The Casino With This Supreme Standout Stomper From The Amazing Mr Guy Darrell. What Northern Soul Is All About. Amazing Vocals Combined With Belting Musicality. Cheers 🍻 👏 ✌️ 🥂 For This Timeless Anthem.❤❤❤.
This is a great song, but what an astounding emotional and jazzy voice, how did Rita Graham not take to the skies with that soaring talent ? Just doesn't compute!
This 60yr old woman gets a bit down now and then, but whack the n.s vinyl on then it's definitely gone with the wind,feel much better in myself listening to the best music ever,beats taking the pills any day and that's the truth.
+Katie Linney Hi there Katie, not sure if you sent any message or not just noticed a notification which is only 3 months late. Sorry, but there isn't any thing written by you so not sure what if any thing you were trying to say. KTF.
Love this cannot wait to get to get on my local dance floor to dance to this with all my Soulie friends at the Midland Band Club in Kettering, K.T.F. at 65 years old.
Wow. I started going to soul clubs in the sixties and this is one of the best sounds I’ve ever heard, this song would have blown everyone away at the Wheel.
Heard this a few days ago on 6Music - RadMac's "Tea-Time-Theme-Time" and have been compulsively playing this since then. I just got lost in the voice, waiting in my stationary car at the time; one of those moments when you'll forever remember where you were when you first heard a special song. What an amazing tune!!
It's brilliant
My favorite Northern Soul tune.....Absolute classic.
KTF
My favourite rekkid of all time. Can't be beat (in my opionion)
Im 64 and my legs are twitching to this track.....the very best of Northern
simply awesome,Im 64 and just getting back into northern soul.
I am 68 and my legs do more than twitch to sounds like this.
I'm 60 now but when I hear this I'm a teenager at the casino again,,,,,,, KTF

It doesn't matter what niter you heard it..close your eyes..and it takes you right back.
Heard this on Tony Blackburn’s radio 2 show a week ago, been with me every minute since…
I bought my fishtail parker in 1979 now at 60 ive still got it, it was a moment in time that i will never forget and always remember.
Et encore une superbe chanson de l’année 1967 !!!!
Oh, I love this. Her voice is so achingly good. Goosebumps and grooves. Tambourine too.😘
Probably Perfect. Well I've never heard more perfect.

I thank the film "Northern Soul" for bringing this absolute gem to me.😍
I never actually recall hearing this song in the film. The song is on the soundtrack though. Watched the film numerous times but never come across it!
Never fades with time...ultimate classic...spinning on the Axminster carpet to this👌
Love love love…52 n still dancing 💃 😊

Really Michael me too bout 6 year ago I first heard it and say no more PURE PERFECTION !! KOKO
this came out late 70's I think
One of my favourite Northern Soul songs. Haunting vocals, yet uplifting.
I gave up everything I love, I liked
What things I possessed
I knew it was wrong, you said you were straight
And I did it for you babe
And now I see you leave right out of my life
My heart cries out
I gave you love and my devotion
And I gave you my soul
Well my love, love, love
He's gone with the wind is my love
Like a bird in the sky
He's gone with the wind is my love
I thought he could weather the storms of life, stand by me
Through the pains and strife
But at the first sign of a breeze, he freezed
He fled with the wind
Now who can I lean on when all my friends and folks have gone?
But I know that they really want to love and to comfort me
But who can take away a pain of love, a pain that starts
A tear to swell deep in my heart and I, burst into tears
Well my love, love, love
He's gone with the wind is my love
Like a petal on a rose
He's gone with the wind is my love
I thought he could weather the storms of life, stand by me
Through the pains and strife
But at the first sign of a breeze, he freezed
He fled with the wind
Each night I hope and pray for his return
My heart still burns, when all I knew was a love so good
And I break down and cry
Well my love, love, love
He's gone with the wind is my love
Like a sail on a mast
He's gone with the wind is my love
My baby he's gone (baby he's gone)
He's gone with the wind (gone with the wind)
A part of my life (part of my life)
He's out of sight (he's gone with the wind)
My baby he's gone (baby he's gone)
