Tom Petty's Buried Treasure brought me here. Brilliant song!

As much as Don't Walk away Renie will be the one that is remembered from the charts this is the the best the Left Banke ever composed and is now finding it's place in this Century and can be all that you want it to be in your life. 🌤

There are songs of unrequited love, and then there is this. An incredibly bittersweet song, so-called at the time "Baroque Rock". I saw this group live as a college student. "Walk Away Renee" was their signature song, but I always felt this was superior. Plus this sounds remastered. So great to hear it again, the way it should be.

Have loved this song since it came out WAY BACK WHEN IN '67...(My favorite song of theirs).
Loved the video, Deb. Continue your good work.❤❤❤😊😊😊😊

I have rediscovered this song today- it's beautiful. I love the piano in it. The strings in this song speak to my heart.

Just found this song a few weeks ago, can’t stop playing it, the lyrics are amazing, the singer does it so well with all the tones. Probably most of us want to dance with a beautiful woman when we were young. Wish I found it earlier and I’m 51. Never comes on the radio😏. Thanks left Banke for bringing this wonderful masterpiece to our ears!.
