Whether it was Breaking Bad, the 60's or sweet music... we all agree that this is an awesome song! and yes it was used pretty well in BB.

I was 14 years old and this song blew my mind ...My older brother played this song on his guitar  I was a Freshman in High School 1969.  And this song is still fresh in my mind.

I was around 8 or 9 in 1969 when this came out. My dad worked with a guy whose son flew a chopper in Vietnam that they named after this song. One mission they were all shot down and killed by the NVA. I never forgot this song.

One of my all time favorite songs and one of the greatest rocks ever made. Perfect song to chill to. Love this.

A beautiful uplifting song of hope at a time when a lousy war was raging and I was graduating high school with a very low lottery number.

[paulppchristman]

We got a recording of this on a thin square vinyl "45" unsolicited in the mail as part of a marketing/ad campaign by one of those mail order record "clubs" of which there were so many decades ago. The sound quality was quite good, surprisingly. I was only in the fourth grade and I hadn't even heard of Tommy James and the Shondells. This was 1970.

Look over yonder
What do you see?
The sun is a'rising
Most definitely  A new day is coming, ooh, ooh
People are changing
Ain't it beautiful, ooh, ooh
Crystal blue persuasion  Better get ready to see the light
Love, love is the answer, ooh, ooh
And that's all right  So don't you give up now, ooh, ooh
So easy to find
Just look to your soul
And open your mind  Crystal blue persuasion, mmm, mmm
It's a new vibration
Crystal blue persuasion
Crystal, blue persuasion  Maybe tomorrow
When he looks down
On every green field, ooh, ooh
And every town
All of his children
And every nation
They'll be peace and good brotherhood  Crystal blue persuasion, yeah
Crystal blue persuasion, aha
Crystal blue persuasion, aha
Crystal blue persuasion, ahaSongwriters: Eddie Morley Gray /  Mike Vale /  Tommy James

The best oldies but goodies ❤

It reminds me of my primo's wedding
When they play this song :)

[rminitials]

R.I.P Gustavo... you were my favorite character :( and for the record I loved this song before the show and welcome all those that were brought here FROM BB. Don't hate, welcome those with good taste :)

[samuelslade]

mood music; it helps everyone facing each day: their troubles and tribulations!

Remember listening to this in the late 60's at night on WDET I believe it was out of Detroit.
