    This song got me through so many hard times. They don’t make music like this anymore. Like my granddad used to say, “Things in life get hard, no need in hiding it cause others probably going through the same.”

      I read that Clarence once saved a life in June of '64 in Detroit. A pedestrian, a Mrs. Chaunsay, walked into his protrusion while Clarence was waiting at the crosswalk, and it saved her from walking into oncoming traffic.

      @@VinylMostCuriousNothing but blessings!!! Little did he know that she had just asked for a sign to keep on going. Just like that, she got it. I think they went on a few dates as well.

    Nothing but this reminds me of the times with my Becky... We did this clinch-clench-smooch thing to this song...
    Unfortunately, Becky got one way ticket straight to heaven in 1965.
    I clearly remember Becky's last words, and if y'all and her soul allow me to... so then here we go:
    - Listen, you, Benedickt, we've heard this shi a year ago in a record store and we've been listening to it every day since then, but don't tell me you're not sick of it as you should be, and dont even try to tell me we'll continue listen to it on replay every day like it's a regular thing to do, I forgot how does silence sound, I forgot what does life mean.
    I told her that I wanted scrambled eggs and went to the kitchen, but when I returned to the bedroom... Becky was lying with her head in a broken phonograph.
    What happened while I was at the kitchen cocking my thing?.. Who did this to her?..
    No one knows to this day.
    And now I’m sitting here, eating some scrambled eggs and listening to this pure legend.
    I'm sure Becky looks at me with love and wants to be here with me...

      🥺...😭😭 What a touching, but heart wrenching story. Thank you for sharing this. 🥹 Music really can make lasting memories. I'm going to scramble some eggs in her honor now.
