My father was a big fan of Matt Monro. I grew up listening to his music. Three weeks ago my dad passed away. On the night leading to his last breath, we had been playing Matt's songs and my dad, who was very weak and lost his voice, was mouthing the lyrics of the songs. Here I am listening to Matt's songs in memory of my dad.

Who are the philistines who gave this a thumbs down verdict???!!!! One of the best voices of the 1960/70s

In 1978 I was in college when I courted a beautiful young professor with twinkling brown eyes singing with this song with my guitar, and captured her heart. Steady for 3 years we've split thereafter me entered the military service in 1983, and later the PNP in 1991. She married a fellow teacher while me an officer in Nurse Corps, AFP. Posted into far frontiers of southern Philippines in BASULTA, and mainland maindanao including Mamasapano in Maguindanao province. I led a Team behind the scenes to produce intelligence that remained untold till this day before the SAF strike on HVT. My distant postings deep south in the service of the country destroyed my marriage and alienated me from my 3 kids all grown-up professional today. My parents died one after the other without seeing me from distant shores. In 2016 I retired, survived alive during the war years in war-torn places across the land and served the country for almost 34 years. I served the country, but not my parents at the moment of death when they needed me most. POR LA PATRIA, meaning "For the Country". I am alone, homeless and straight dead-center ahead to the graveyard to face judgment before God. I remember this song and my college days with my Teacher-girlfriend. Life is too short and just passing-by. It's just only yesterday when I was young, life rosy and future rife for the taking. Retired PNP Captain 0-25112, member, Corps of Professor, PNPTI.

Here I am again listening to this wonderful song sung so wonderfully by Matt, what a sadder place the world is without him, a brilliant song ❤

Quite simply the greatest male vocalist of all time.  He sings with such emotion that unless you have no heart you cannot fail to be touched by his songs.  His enunciation was so perfect that every single word was clear, no syllable was swallowed.  We will never ever hear his like again.

Yes I am listening to it now, in the early hours.
I am approaching 80yrs old, I listen to it weekly, as it reminds me of my youth, and a lost ❤️ love.
Perhaps in another life, 😢 after all the Soul is eternal.

What a song. What a singer. What strings. What an arrangement. Utterly brilliant.

[keithrich]

Even now it's hard to believe Matt is no longer with us.What a legacy for me he stands alone as arguably the greatest male vocalist ever.I doubt even Frank Sinatra would argue with that.He loved this man's voice

One of my favourite tracks. Beautifully sung. RIP Matt Monroe.

My favorite singer from 60x

I am in my late 60's and I remember when I was in High School in the Philippines in 1968 my friend used to sing Matt Munro songs and we loved it all.Until now Matt Munro is my Favourite singer. I know he is gone but His songs will live forever .Just imagine we are on the other side of the world from where he is and yet in the 1960's his songs are so popular. I am still listening and enjoying up to now.
