Dear God.....can we please go back....just for an afternoon? Ohh...I loved this when I was 10 in 1965....still love it now. Those of us my age and perhaps a little older who might be reading this.....do you realize how absolutely great we had it musically then? Even though most all our cars had dinky little am radios only, with a horrible speaker upwards in the center of the dashboard's top...it just seemed like every song....one after another after another.....was a winner. We were so lucky. So very lucky.

Chad and Jeremy were distinctly part of the "British Invasion" of the mid to late 1960s that brought fresh British Theatre and fashion trends to the streetwise American rock scene. It was often said by he British " saved rock & roll". Saved from what? Saved it from missing out on the gently, culturally artistic dimension of the performing arts.

This was released at about the time of our 1st anniversary(July, 1964). We were just beginning to understand that we had entered what would be the "good old days" of our lives. That began our 7-year honeymoon before our first baby arrived. And because of the beauty and goodness of Susan's spirit, those days went on for the 50 years we had together in our private world.. But the magic of the sixties, perfectly captured in the playful innocence and joyful harmonies of the music, could not last. A darkness began creeping over the land, driving our nation and much of the world into a fearful meanness that leaves its music harsh. In her last loving words of comfort, Susan told me, "Grief is natural, but let it be brief. The cure is remembrance and gratitude, for one another and all we've shared." So on lonely nights I turn here to relive Chad and Jeremy, The Momas and the Popas, Spanky and Our Gang, the Association and all those days of love and laughter. Thank you, KZbin.

Interesting story, they're obscure and virtually unknown in the UK having charted just once in 1963 with their first release that made no.37, just about profitable enough to allow the record company to give them studio time and musicans to record an album, in the hope that it may pay for itself and allow a small profit, which it just about did.. Subsequent releases were made solely with the American Market in mind and were never promoted in the UK as they sold poorly

These guys, Peter and Gordon, Peter, Paul, and Mary, and, of course, The Beatles, made me want to learn to play the guitar (I was thirteen in 1964). Still playing and singing after all these years.

Didn't everyone have a secret or not-so-secret "love" then in 1965? Mine was Kathy and every time I hear this, guess who comes to mind. 56 years later, I still think of her. We were fifteen then.

Beautiful harmonies with their voices, enticing accents with brass and strings and the final pièce de résistance of ending the ballad on a picardy third. This was truly music for the soul.

As a young 60's adult this was my favorite song. I'd lye in bed and move my Philco radio around for better recepton so I could hear this song clearly. Just a beautiful song today as it was back then. Where has the time gone? Been a blur!

Chad Stuart, of the English singing duo of Chad & Jeremy, died on December 20th, 2020 at his home in Hailey, Idaho of pneumonia. He was 79 years old... Between 1963 and 1966 the duo had eleven records on Billboard's Top 100 chart, one made the Top 10, "A Summer Song", it peaked at #7 {for 2 weeks} in October of 1964... They had two Top 20 records, "Willow Weep For Me" {#15 in 1964} and "Before and After" {#17 in 1965}... Surprisingly, they had only one charted record in their native England, "Yesterday's Gone", it reached #37 in 1963... May Mr. Stuart R.I.P. Note: Their above performance is from the November 28th, 1964 episode of 'American Bandstand'...

As a young woman in the 90's and early 00's, this timeless song remind me that the spring and summer of youth is quickly fading fast. But God has granted me the chance to see early autumn. But oh it hurts to lose your youth and face regrets of yesteryear.
