Youre a crooner. an old one. You know all this stuff about this song because you were there when the original came out. About the same time you came out. Nicely done sir. I call my elders sir. |
Reply: No, I think you mean 'spooner'...that's what the women say (in my own mind). I know about the song's history because I can read...you can learn it too if you really, really try. Say, thank you for giving me the respect I deserve. Ha |

Hi Jerry.. Glad to see this one posted by you. You have given it full justice. So many have recorded it in the last century and it still remains 'so rare' Big applause for you |
Reply: First, I hope your birthday was a wonderful day! I recorded this song a long time ago and just decided to post it as I'm still not able to record. Thank for your comment my friend. |
