Mel & Tim - Starting All Over Again

[@teresajohnson-green1285]

Love all the comments..I love this song. Tim was my oldest brother. Mel is my first cousin. Tim died in 1986 from diabetes. Mel still lives in St.Louis.

[@dalebridges6916]

How cool to be kin to them. I was 14 when this song came out bought the 45 I about wore the record out but I've never never gotten tired of it !

[@JustMe-cz1yz]

Great song. Sorry for the loss of your brother. I've always loved this song!

[@SIGMAMAN69]

May your cousin R.I.H.

[@DaynaSchultz-iu7wc]

[@TimTimSalabim]

70s was the best decade for music.

[@christineobrien7707]

No argument here!😎👍👍

[@mariemccarter6412]

I wish we could all have time to start all over again but my husband passed away in 2015 but some day we will meet again, Great music guys I thank you for sharing,💞🌹

[@chrometoaster]

This song just pops into my head every now and again. (For years and years) Today was the first time I ever looked it up. This song will never be irrelevant. Thanks, Mel & Tim.

[@rochellemelvin5178]

I was at the co-op today and this song was playing. I hadn't heard it in years. ❤ this song. I wish it were longer.

[@juliegarcia5122]

Childhood we had was hard but fun… listening to it over and over, love it

[@13glasse]

One of my all time favourites.Brings me back to better times.

[@goddydee2]

I can listen to this song over and over again. It has a special meaning to me because of a childhood relationship that was resurrected in my adult life. The landscape has changed for both of us, but some things in life remain the same, irrespective of the passage of time and the amount of baggage that we accumulate along the way. I love it!!!

[@lovelight...1940]

Grew up with lots of this kind of music and enjoyed it very much. I wish we'd get back days like that. It is do-able.

Real Words! Real Truth in the song! To the soul.

[@altheahewitt8372]

This shows that true love never dies

[@CeCeW51]

totally love this song. high 5 to whomever posted!

[@rosebuddy47]

I love this song soooooooooooooo much. The lyrics are so true to how some relationships break and there was so much love they never realized so reconnect but in some cases perhaps,all they do become are friends with no benefits. Did nor realize this group was African American till today. Great artists are either dying off,do not perform anymore as a group or are too old to make great records---so sad.

[@zbig7new]

This is just a stone classic. I bought the 45 the week it came out, and I remember hearing it on WCFL when it premiered and saying "damn I gotta have this" I was 16 years old. Simply put, this one of the best records of the 70's. Though it came out on Stax (Memphis) "Starting" was cut in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Mel and Tim, had a pop hit previous with "Backfield In Motion" in '69. Then they punched dj's in the gut with this amazing song from writer Philip Mitchell. It was a 180, for sure.

[@Kukumamma]

love this video, have not heard this song in a long time,thanks for posting it.

[@goddydee2]

What an incredible tune!

[@silvermilestones]

This is when soul was soul!

[@cardenco]

Thanks for posting. I've been hearing this song since 1980 or so, but it's just now that I can put a couple of faces on it.

[@LarryDHillville]

@gary32080 Motown did indeed... but this song was composed by Phillip Mitchell in Mussel Shoals, Alabama... he's home on Louisvile , KY now and i am happy to have him home

[@HubertHase]

Could anyone please post "Forever and a Day" by Mel & Tim? Such a great song! Thanks.

[@youngfonz]

Sooo rouggghhhh butttt we gonnnna mmmakkkkee itttttttt

[@goddydee2]

It is quite difficult starting all over again and just being friends, and never becoming lovers again. If the intimacy was great before, it would be a challange to settle for mere friendship the second time around. If the love is real and pure, one or both parties would be seeking a level of closeness which would invariably call for sex.

[@hormelinc]

Hey they performed the long version! You don't hear that version too often...

[@randolph65]

that a strong song

[@JoseTalavera-i1b]

Si si es muy buena guuo❤

[@dan11856]

@chevylife88 Why do people have to coment on things they know nothing about.They just make up stuff for attention. Music like this made the 60s and 70s special for me.It did,nt matter if it was black or white. It was just good music. I miss those days.

[@kimberleyaddisonvandesteen8315]

Omg

[@Pamathey]

@myboylollipop09 You don't listen to much modern music if that's what you think about it. There's a lot of feel-good music.

[@nymet2454]

[@America100000able]

See! Why can't people make songs like these today instead of the rap crap that we get now?

[@MrPokerJoe]

Man, those collars....

[@slickjan88]

There are still songs like this out there you just have to look. By the way I'm assuming the "rap crap" you're referring to is what you hear on the radio? I really hope you dont dismiss a whole genre of music because of a few poor examples. Look a little deeper and you'll find hip-hop with artistic merit and if you still deem it "crap" then thats your taste but please don't take the radio pop-rap for a good representation of the true genre or what hip-hop was intended to be.

[@Sundertje]

@myboylollipop09 : True, but jou made me laugh also, LOL!
