I guess I was one of the lucky ones. I was 14 in 1972 and I ate up David Gate’s bittersweet ballads. I also loved rock n roll, drank and smoked too much, and was not uncool. Now, I am sending this song to my 22-year-old daughter, who has the same taste, and will send others to her every once in awhile. Another one I relish is Guitar Man. A long time ago I went with my father, who was a crooner, to a piano bar and for a last song I requested ‘If’. He immediately recognized what a poetic and beautiful lament it is. The songs speak across the generations.

One of the most beautiful songs made at that time, still holds true today. The feeling and the simplistic vocal and arrangement that hits you right in your heart. I fell in love at an early age with an older girl. Sad to say things changed, mistakes of a misguided youth & yet this song...I lived during a time when girls had diaries some may still have them, it was a good time. Many are gone, innocence lost, age & time take it's toll on our lives. But music like this remains with us to feel, enjoy, & reminisce. Peace 2 ya who remember what it was like back in the day.

It has been many years since I heard this song, I think I heard this on a road trip in a car when I was little. The Simpsons played it in tribute to Edna, voiced by the wonderful Marcia Wallace and I forgot how moving this song was. Edna has one of the best character arcs on the show. To see her go through all that hardship, from overcoming past relationships ... I'm glad she found happiness at the end. She was a great balance for Ned and the boys. Marcia Wallace portrayed what every school teacher should strive to be, whilst maybe having a tough outer exterior they have that deep inner core to help kids out and persevere no matter what. It's why she stayed in Springfield after all. Albeit I miss her from the show, it is a tremendous sign of respect from her colleagues to retire the character when Marcia passed, knowing that no one could ever truly match the wonderful character she had created. I hope you inspire many generations of teachers to come. We will really miss you Mrs K.

I was 22 when this song was on the radio. I don't know how it never made it to #1. If I were to introduce one song of the 70's to the millenials these days, it would be this one. As a music major, and one who has done some song writing myself I can appreciate the effort it takes to create something like this. The song is beautiful, from the lyrics to the melody and to the arrangement It is flawless. My favorite song of that decade!

I first heard this song during my freshman year of college down in Orlando. I was doing my Gen Ed and my philosophy professor played this for the whole class. I loved the song and it introduced me to Bread as a whole lol. Even though this song doesn’t really relate to my situation, I sometimes think of this one girl in that class that I never made a move on whenever I hear this. She had dark hair, wore glasses, used to wear lots of band shirts, and crack her knuckles a lot lol. She and I always sat and waited near each other. We interacted for a bit but I never had the courage to take it any further. I regret not taking an action. There’s a chance that I might see her again seeing that I’m still at that university (albeit in my final year), but I’m hoping that maybe she might visit this video again one day and remember how it was back in that class. I learned my lesson though, I’m never gonna pass up a girl I think I might wanna ask out again.

Im 13 years old now and I love the songs from the past and this song plays on the radio of my mama many times me and my mama and papa listening to this song and its beautiful until now were still listening to the radio and Im waiting for verry beautiful old songs when I heard a beautiful song and I dont what it is, I asked mama whats the title and search it in youtube and while me and mama listening to songs on radio, were singing too
I'm in my 30's but grew up attatched to music from the 60's era and its surroundings. Heard this on the radio the other day and it hit me hard. Among the plethora of music from the 60's I know and love, I swear I had a past life then.

The words began to stick and tears to flow. Her (His) meaning now is clear to see. The love she'd (he'd) waited for, was someone else not me ... and as I go through my life, I will wish for her his wife. All the sweet things she (he) can find, all the sweet things they can find.
My love was unrequited, and I spent so much time trying to control the situation, trying to get her to "realize" what we had. Letting go was excruciating and took yet another long time. This song pierces my heart every time. How can such a sad reality be made into such a beautiful song?

Franz Tranz They are garbage. If you measure a genre of music which negative impact on civilization rap {ganstah, disrespect of women, bling blings} rock {indecency, undisciplined and lack of responsibility} I was as much into rock when younger. Beatles and such. But when they started questioning those guidelines that define a disciplined and effective society that was it for me.

I learnt of this song on my own, and loved it so much that when me and my friends next met up I played them this song. Baring in mind, my friendship group of 8 young men is made up of mostly post punk fans, and by the end of the song they were all so stunned by the beauty of the story and the fragility of the music that the room was chilled into a silence for a good 5 seconds after it ended. I love that memory, I love this song and everything it has given me. God bless Bread.
