In the late 60s in high school, they were my favorite group and in my 70s now, that has not changed. Gary Pucketts voice was incredible! Thank you for the sweet memories!

Since my childhood this song reached the bottom of my soul 😭😭😭, later I was able to translate the content and I understood why it made me cry a lot

[scarlettkelsey]

Remember this like it was yesterday! Effortlessly flawless!

[namcat]

There were so many beautiful, sweet, natural girls I knew in high school I'll never forget when this song was released.

[guyrestivo]

[davidlowe]

Great song; fantastic voice, and I love those outfits!

Just read of the passing of Jerry Fuller who wrote this
song and other hits for Gary as well as other artists.

It reminded me that The BEST concert I ever saw,
(and I've seen a LOT!) was a double bill
of The Association and Gary Puckett & the Union Gap at the
New Haven Bowl, in New Haven, CT -1968, when I was 14, and all the older bunks from
my summer sleep away camp in Clinton, CT went there.

I think tickets were $6.00. Considered a lot at the time!
Still love Gary's voice and listening to his music in 2024 at 71!

You can hear every word GP sings. Although only a small boy at the time, in Auckland New Zealand, I distinctly recall this when released. Great music, best decades ever in the 60s & 70s; they will never be equalled.

[timetowakeup]

What a fine, incredibly powerful voice

[janicegarrett]

I was 14 and briefly dated a 19 yo. He assumed I was the same age as his sister who was 16yo. When he learned my age, he was kind but we parted ways

[joannkripper]

Love this group..then, now and always..👍

[lindahardy]

Still my favourite song from my teens.

[davinastanton]

Oh this is one that takes me right back. ❤
Such a great song.
I can remember those times so well. ☺❤

[juliawalsh]

The sounds of the 60s. What an incredible voice this man has. The soundtrack to my young years.

[robertfullwood]

I was born in August 1969 but always like Gary Puckett and the union gap.

[laurashepherd]

He had such a great voice. I didn't realize it back then.

[robertfullwood]

Me and my wife had this played on our wedding day.
