This song is a beautiful core memory of my youth. Every time I hear it, I'm reminded of beautiful summer evenings at home with fireflies darting about in the dusk. Just a warm, homey memory. Dash Crofts is still alive at 86. Jim Seals passed away in 2022 at 79.

[@ejtappan1802]

Same here... their music is part of the fabric of my childhood. ((sigh)) Long, long ago, lol.

[@FinallyTuned]

Seals & Crofts did this in 1972. The Isley Brothers loved it so much, they put out their version in 1973.

[@gailjohnson5950]

"We May Never Pass This Way Again", Diamond Girl" "Hummingbird" ALL great classics from these guys. Their music was my first concert! Their harmonies are amazing.

[@reneemanning6760]

When you saw them, were they opening for the Eagles?

[@theodoreritola7641]

No Decade compares to them 70s So many great difernt kinds of fantastic music in the1970s

[@bobdelp2023]

YOU NEED TO DO : DIAMOND GIRL 😊THAT WAS THEIR BIGGEST HIT ROBERT! 👍

[@lajuaniarice2105]

Yesssss!!!!! 💯 👍🏾

This and Hummingbird were bigger back in the day.

[@cog4life]

Love that sing!

[@donnabatroff1674]

This IS the original!!!!

[@mitchelsmith9677]

yes. The Isley Brothers had the main framework, but they cut out a verse and added an odd intro.

[@threekidzmom04]

The 60;s and 70's were filled with fun and beautiful love songs! So glad I grew up then.

[@kims.schinkel8212]

"jasmine in my mind" seems to be an allusion to a relaxation technique. Jasmine is a flower that thrives in warmer climates, and its fragrance is said to soothe frazzled nerves.

[@charliemorris1942]

You are right, however I think they were referring to the actual scent of the classic summer's flower's scent flowing in the breeze. Jasmine and Honeysuckle both sttaples of Summer in The South.

[@terri2494]

@@charliemorris1942 Exactly. If someone has never experienced the heady aroma of jasmine on a warm summer evening they have missed out. I used to love encountering it on an evening walk, especially when I wasn’t expecting it. That’s a foretaste of heaven, for sure.

[@erdossuitcase7667]

They both practiced the Bahai faith and I think jasmine has some symbology attached to it.

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

@@erdossuitcase7667 *symbolism, not symbology

[@lauraopper2571]

The lyrics of this song are so evocative. I can see the scene in my mind...I can smell the food...I can hear the neighbor's music. Incredibly descriptive and beautiful. They're describing a perfect day.

[@okay5045]

James Seals passed away June 6, 2022. This song takes me to the summers of my youth. I loved them.

[@Joseph-f9m7s]

Yeah me too, a teen in early 70's and best time in my life. All the great music and concerts I went to.

[@EricAnderson888]

Love their song "Hummingbird", amazing harmonies.

[@mistyrogers2490]

Jasmine is a flower with a perfume so sweet and heady that it can actually take your mind to a different place

[@Raggmopp-xl7yf]

Oh! I love these guys! Seals & Crofts were a "mood" back in the day. They just made you feel mellow and at peace with the world.

[@cindipossidento5688]

And that mood was much needed by many of us …..🥰

[@davewhitlow2984]

Agree. It's my favorite out of their many great songs. "Get Closer" with "Diamond Girl" as a close second.

[@kidpoker007]

Hippie Music?

[@hansellshook1677]

My man. You are now beyond a “rapper”. You are traversing genres and picking up details few ever do. And you are taking your audience along for the ride. The influence of any song has butterfly effects upon every song after it. In a way, you are mapping the history of music. Kudos.

[@MarcoNegrisEye]

Rap mostly done that anyway. Without the inspiration there's not much to go on.

[@L1623VP]

This is quintessential 70's. It has such a dreamy quality to it, and it brings back so many good memories from my childhood.

[@debh-714]

Amazing!! Another band who played for decades and contributed greatness to the world of music in the 70’s! Brings back happy memories!💞

[@suffolkip12]

I remember cruising around town in the summer in the 1970s singing away to this!! Thanks for the memory!!

[@heyou702pc]

I remember being in 8th grade, 13 years old in 1972 and this was our garage party music. Great memories, great song.

[@Lovegun-w4s]

I want to go back in time when I was a kid hearing this when it came out, best times of my life 💯🫤🫤

[@melissagrover9727]

Jasmine is a flower that blooms at night in the summer. It is a vine and is prolific along fences and pathways. It smells amazing. Star Jasmine is on my gate. But I also wonder if the girl in the song is named Jasmine.

[@michelleberns8879]

We May Never Pass This Way Again...timeless! Check it!!

[@charliemorris1942]

AGREE!!

[@premasru]

Jasmine is a highly fragrant creeper that thrives in warm climates. If you walk past it catching the scent, you'll "Wow, what is that!" and youll want to retrace your steps to find it 😂❤

[@karenbee1898]

Jasmine...a bush with very sweet blossoms...summer breeze, blowing a little jasmine. I wore jasmine oil back in 70's-80's, as well as patchouli..2 of my favorite scents, that I still use to this day.

[@Jane-d4w]

My husband gave me a bottle of jasmine oil in 87. I'm still wearing it and getting compliments every time I wear it ❤

[@cindybednar6997]

Ahh memories.

[@lisabriscolino3417]

Jasmin is a sweet smelling plant with white flowers that grows in warm temps mostly down south and fills the air with a beautiful odor especially when there’s a breeze ❤. Great song 🎶

[@karlsmith2570]

He's also correct in thinking that it's an essential oil because there's a number of skincare products that have Jasmine in them. Jasmine is also edible as there's a Jasmine tea and other things that contain Jasmine

[@loristone9242]

I think the word you are looking for is aroma.

[@aura81295]

Jasmine is my personal favorite non-medicinal essential oil to use strictly as a perfume or air freshener without all the chemicals that give me allergic reactions. I get why people feel the need to cover up body odors at times. But many synthetic perfumes are horrible, especially when you have to be in close proximity to people using them, not to mention their use in cleaning products. Ugggh!

[@rubytuesday5412]

~ Yes indeed! I live in Oz and it's summertime here now. I have jasmine growing underneath my bedroom window. Gorgeous laying in bed with that aroma coming through my window.

[@starstuff5958]

remember this from when my husband came back from a very long 2 years of sea duty...... He's passed now but the memories flood back with this song. Thanks, I needed that!!

[@taun856]

One of the minor little things I love about this song, is that the "xylophone" sounding instrument you can hear is actually a childs toy piano. Probably the only time one was used in a professional song.

[@marigoldenergy8512]

I didn’t know that. Thanks!

[@coachwhitford7315]

Very cool

[@AlexanderCalderon-kd6mh]

It sounds exactly like a child's piano!

I was 12 when this song was released in 1972. They were one of my favorite artists and I played their albums over and over. They have so many great songs for you to react to like "Diamond Girl", "Hummingbird", "Get Closer", "We May Never Pass This Way Again", and "East of Ginger Trees".

[@girlonaswing9439]

All excellent

[@MeAbifad]

Again i just do enjoy your podcast, as it takes me back, and to see the honest joy and appreciation of you, falling in love with the music we grew up with, so the times we grew up in, with its distinct flavour, , is sooo heartwarming. Fuh real🙏🏼❤️💯 And other poddys like you covering same time/type genre. Have you ever just sat and just listened back to back of some, in same type genre (so eg Seals & Croft, Carpenters, The Hollies etc) and feel the vibe...? I think it may well make you really get a feel of the vibe as was back then Of why Woodstock for instance, emerged, and the like. And as the progression from 50s morphed into the 60s then the 70s etc how it was and so why. Life was not perfect to be sure, but damn there was a special kind of authentic freedom in the air that was undeniable - the freedom to express and just be... Then the 80s started coming in and then it was "juicy" 😁 as how I'd put it but slowly you began to see the change. Child of the latish 60s into very early 70s growing up and what I'd always tell my niece etc and younger folk is "It felt like Magic"🙏🏼 Truly. The music, the movies, the comic books.. 😁 Damn. 😁😉 To effect that, when Black Panther the movie came out, and there was so much hoopla, I genuinely was a tad confused. But my niece explained 😁 I just kinda unwittingly auto-assumed it was known of. Those comics were all over our house and so i knew of The Black Panther from way back when. Amazing huh, how our familiars just seem to be real and present all the time, in our hearts; to effect, we don't really, or rather, aren't ever too conscious at times, of the changing times.🙏🏼😁 But ah, the privilege of having been around at such a true generational crossroads. So truly warms the heart to see them being SO appreciated again. Thank you man. Hope you find much more to enjoy....🙏🏼

[@JustMe-vk4fn]

Thank you for this. I've lived through the 60's twice now and I agree that we had some of the most amazing music modern people have *never* heard before. :) That's okay though, I missed out on a lot of the 90's and 00'S because of work and kids and home maintenance and.... I'm sure there's songs that I would have like to have had the time to hear. :)

[@bkm2797]

Remember this sweet summer tune, thinking it came out in the summer, he lives it a warm climate where the Jasmine is in bloom (it’s a tree or a bush, small white flowers with an intense fragrance). We had a jasmine bush off the kitchen, and in the summer in Florida its smell was so intense wafting through the house, especially when there was a summer breeze. Thanks B.P.👍💕

[@MeAbifad]

Oh MAN!! Thank you for this. I LOVED this song and would always sing it around the house, even though it always somehow, made me tear up. Grand memories!!🙏🏼 Oh the catalog of music that was back in the DAY!!!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💯❤️

If you watch a live version it sounds exactly the same. Both of these uber talented guys can sing and play live in near perfection.

[@DonnaKubiski]

They were my absolutely favorite artists back in the day, and I owned all their albums. I also saw them in concert three times. And, I love love love the mandolin. It became my favorite string instrument. They have so many great songs, and I love all their hits. Some of my favorites though are songs that are not well known, including "Windflowers", "The Boy Down The Road", "Follow Me", and "Dance By The Light Of The Moon".

DEFINITELY the original. One of my favorite songs until I die ❤.

Seals & Crofts are the originals of 1972 and then the Isley Brothers made it their own I think somewhere around 2009. I may be wrong but I think it’s close. Thanks for your time brother you do a great job man. Love your channel.

[@Calamity_Jack]

Love, love S&C! They were such a vibe when I was a young kid in the 70s, you heard them on the radio all the time. Some of my other favorites of theirs you should check out: "We May Never Pass This Way Again," "I'll Play For For You," and "Hummingbird."

I saw these guys in college. They wrote "Ruby Jean and Billie Lee" in honor of their wives. It showcases both voices in solos which sounds very nasal but still good.

[@lindazee]

One of my all-time favorite songs! So beautiful.

[@patwalker5133]

Jasmine is a flowering bush/vine similar to honeysuckle. It's used a lot as a ground cover in home/commercial landscaping because it can take direct sunlight and is low maintenance and the scent carrying on the breeze smells heavenly.

[@jackie_jrml]

Yesssssss a perfect song. 👌🏼👌🏼 Your reaction and description of how you felt is spot on. This is just a great song - a huge warm hug.

[@laurenblainebamartistmgt]

I was the guest of the road manager on a couple of dates in Portland and then in Seattle. Not only were they massively talented, we all had breakfast together and they were very intelligent, too. I complimented the drummer, Terry Bozio, and asked him if he’d played with anybody else I’d know. Oh, just Frank Zappa, etc. He was very humble about it. My, was I embarrassed that I was complimenting someone who was a monster and I didn’t even know who he was! lol

[@terryfowler1495]

I grew up listening to this version. jasmine is a flower and the smell can be quite powerful if the bush is in full bloom and a summer breeze can blow it right threw your mind plus it will make you feel like well...fine.

[@Cristozen1]

One of my favorite bands and songs when I was in Junior High in the early 70's.

[@cayminlast]

Seals and Crofts were the original in 1972, The Isley brothers did a cover in 1974.

[@bruthabluto8824]

The reason why music was so rich in the 1970s was that access to different genres became easier to do with improving media and distribution methods. Artists from different labels, different styles could finally adapt and bring together different styles into the writing and performances. There was no talk about "cultural appropriation" or "license infringement" .. it was about the music, and the storytelling in the music connected people in ways we can only dream about today.

[@coopm3087]
