[@LeimertDreamer]

We’re not missing out though. We’re right here watching this video on KZbin along with everybody else. The cool thing about this day in time is that we can actually enjoy music from today through the last 100 years, without having to own 200 different albums to do so. We can literally type in a song we may want to hear from say, 1959, and BOOM - here we are! The digital age has made it possible that a millennial like me can listen to and enjoy this music right here in 2020. So no, I don’t feel like I’m “missing out” at all. 😁

[@jarchhhh]

@@LeimertDreamer Agreed on one level...access to musical archives allow us to "experience" other times and places. But, the digital age only allows us to experience a facsimile of the original time, place and feeling. The social context is missing entirely. A person living in the 40's through Tommy Dorsey, the 60's through the Beatles...the 70's through glam rock, the 90's through Grunge, etc, etc experienced those moments in a very different context than simply dialing up KZbin. When I saw my father get dreamy eyed listening to the music of his day, I knew he was back in that moment...a moment I could never, ever feel.

[@LeimertDreamer]

@@jarchhhh Very good points, and valid ones. I’m sure your grandpa has/had wonderful memories from his day. 🙂 The only thing I will add is that those of us who enjoy this older music don’t necessarily wish to have experienced the time it was produced. I, as a relatively successful Black man, would probably not want to live in the 1950s, as opportunities for me now are much greater than then. Plus, I have my own set of songs from my “younger” years (granted, I’m only in my early 30s) that give my eyes a twinkle or two :-). Which brings me back to the original point, which is that we’re so blessed to be able to enjoy music from many different times and eras. Also, I can’t promise that I don’t apply some of these love songs to situations in my own life now lol! 😆 So, in that regard, these songs not only can be enjoyed by younger generations but can be applicable too!

This was our wedding first dance song, 39 years ago. I waited quite a while for that speacial someone to attach it to. This, in my opinion, is the most beautiful and romantic song ever written. My sincere thanks for such a great classic and a most beautiful song. The days of this kind of music has long since gone but they live on in our hearts.

This is one of those romantic classics that we all call back seat memories,and way back then when you and your girl were on a date this is the song that made many dates more meaningful. Great Song..

I came from the Netflix show the Crown!, so romantic

[@TisEyerish1]

What are you really trying to say? There is no way this came from a Netflix show; it was around long before home computers, the internet, or Smart TV were heard of.

[@gerardorenteria7844]

TisEyerish1 he’s saying he heard it from a show or movie

[@carleygranillo9711]

Me too!!

[@lovelydiva06]

Same

[@gfoot9916]

Which episode?

[@mason0620]

My Grandpa loved this song. He showed it to me as a kid and I've loved in ever since.

[@gardensofthegods]

Yep , i heard my parents playing this when i was maybe 3 or 4 years old and loved it the very first time i heard it . Another old one you might like and I don't know if it was sung by the flamingo's but I think it was sung by The Platters was called Red Sails in the Sunset and you might like that .

[@gardensofthegods]

Another one you might like and it's from maybe around 1965 is the James Bond song You Only Live Twice as sung by Nancy Sinatra

[@Krusty-kl5ej]

Simply one of the most beautiful songs and recording ever.

[@emilyh.8704]

What happen to when this beautiful song would play on the only station on radio..those were the days my friends..thank God for KZbin where we can take a blissful trip to then, to listen and dream of yesterday and how simple life was back then, when music was real, by fabulous artists like these..❤💋❤
