The beautiful voice of Mama Cass.

I had the 45 rpm and wore the damn thing out. Got a lot of air play as well during its initial release. Just love it and her voice.

This is "our favorite song". This song was playing when my wife and I both felt that magical feeling of love in 1968. Now we have been married 50 years! The Momma's and the Poppa's were the greatest harmonizers and complimented each other so well. Momma's voice, wow!

It's too bad the ham sandwiches don't think the same way :(

[@JoaoLucas-ey5me]

This style is similar to the Brazilian "Bossa Nova". Look for the Brazilian singer Tom Jobim and many others from Bossa Nova ;)

[@neverthesame7887]

God how I hate that stupid rumor about the ham sandwich--it's cruel because of course it is mocking her weight. THAT IS NOT HOW SHE DIED> She had a heart attack ---ask her daughter. She died years ago.

[@wesleyhill4922]

Evelyn Ferguson It's the same with me..my first name is Vernon. Never liked it and no one in my family ever called me Vernon. To family and friends I was either Wesley or Wes. When I asked where the name "Vernon" came from; I was told that my teenage sister had a crush on a guy upstairs named Vernon. I like my middle name, however some have called me the founder of the Methodist Church !

[@PRR5406]

Cass's shift to the natural in her first chorus is so elegant. The tacked piano is a perfect backing for the harmony. She was a vocal gem. I'd love to have had her live longer and decorate our lives further with her beautiful voice.

[@Gottenhimfella]

That's the legendary Larry Knechtel coming up with the piano parts (including that wonderful solo starting at 1:38 ). He was the genius behind the arrangement and piano part on "Bridge over Troubled Water", the Hammond organ for "Good Vibrations", the harpsichord on "MacArthur Park", the lead guitar solo on Bread's "Guitar Man" and the bass guitar on the Byrds "Tambourine Man". And that's just the tip of the iceberg, yet most people have never heard of the guy (sadly, he's dead now)

[@LarixusSnydes]

@@Gottenhimfella Never knew that, thank you for pointing this out. Still, not everyone wants to be in the spotlight. Silent contributions can be the best.

YES! From a fellow teen, I wholeheartedly agree, would give anything to grow up in a simpler time with this music!

[@shannon4407]

same girl. but we’re lucky enough to have the ability to listen to any music we want from any time before us :)

[@relagro]

46, and while part of me regrets being too young to have experienced musicians like this in person, I am happy to be here now. There are so many wonderful things going on in music and arts now all over the world; and while it may not be the same, they are still wonderful in their own way, and we have access to it now that we would not had years ago.

[@Bananas7575]

When I came to Germany at the beginning of 1992 , I was 25. It was a hit on every radio station. I thought it was a new song. I had never heard it before. Now I'm 55, almost 56. And this song still breaks my heart every time I hear it.

[@jmrodas9]

The song itself is beautiful and the voice of Cass, is just beautiful to listen. One remembers when one was very young and my Mama sang to me a lullaby.

[@andresgarsia6063]

I'm a 14 year old and I always find myself enjoying old music better 💘😔

Couldn't agree more. She was gone far too soon. Her body has faded, but her voice is forever, like the stars.

You could easily make the argument that this is the most beautifully song sung in music history. It is impossible to overstate the greatness of Mama Cass.

[@louse-man]

I cant listen to this song without crying, it reminds me so much of my father. He isnt gone, he hasn't passed, i just weep at the thought of one day hearing this song when he is and no longer being able to hear him sing it. I miss him while he's still here, and I long for him to stay forever so I can always have him here to sing it for me.

I'm in my school's quoir. This year we did this song. We were invited to play at our country's government building for [Countrywide holiday]. First school to ever book a gig there, and on one of the most important days of the year for our country, too. Alto section! It was so much fun to perform this for government officials. Gave a lot of pride, really. Best memory of 2020 thus far

A popular standard, it has seen more than 60 other versions recorded, with one of the highest chart ratings by the Mamas & the Papas in 1968 with Cass Elliot on lead vocals.

Mama Cass and Karen Carpenter were the females with the best voices in the history of music. Both beautiful voices.

[@9UaYXxB]

They're voices are both revelations, but there's no need not any genuine benefit in saying they were 'the best'.... that's only an obstacle to listening.... it sets up unnecessary antagonisms. There's always room for more beauty... it's not a competition
