I can't remember the last time I heard that on the radio.
Freepers: hearts full of hate and cowardice, and skulls full, to quote a favorite saying of one of their favorite cowards, of mush.
I believe that there was a law back then that Last Date would be the last song played at all HS dances.
This song did it for me. I really really like cake.
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. Excellent one to mix in here - thanks. Pass the blunt.
Such a tragedy! A cake is a terrible thing to waste.
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. As bad as "MacArthur Park" is, I really liked it for a long, long time.

tell laura i love her- ray peterson
I like anything she did cuz I wanted to do her. :)
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. OMG! I forgot about that Tell Laura song. That's another one I haven't heard for years.

Last Date makes me cry when I hear it.......dunno why..........but it touches me.
Watch it, or I'll post "Honey," by Bobby Goldsboro.

Always reminds me of "American Graffiti."

Ha ha! Barry McGuire, "Eve of Destruction."

Out in the shiny night, the rain Was softly falling The tracks that ran down the boulevard had All been washed away Out of the silver light, the past came softly calling And I remember the times we spent Inside the sad cafe
here's another that chokes me up. John Schneider (what a voice) "What's a Memory Like You"

This is 'The House You Live In' by Gordon Lightfoot, embedding disabled. It has been a favorite of mine for decades.
Remember Me (I'm The One) - Gordon Lightfoot This is early Lightfoot if you ever wondered what he sounded like as a new, young singer songwriter. It is a tear jerker in the 60s and 70s country song sense the way he produced and sang it.
Baby, I Need Your Loving* and my absolute favorite of Levi's--Just Ask The Lonely

oh, that's new to me. i would have never known that was Lightfoot. like Marie Osmond (i'm little bit country), so i like it very much.

You disappointed me, I was expecting Seasons In The Sun.
And they write innumerable books; being too vain and distracted for silence: seeking every one after his own elevation, and dodging his emptiness. - T. S. Eliot
Recently, I had something of an epiphany. Vietnam: Fought to a draw. We lost 58,000 men. The estimated total of North and South Vietnamese military and civilian deaths ranges somewhere between 2 to 4 million depending on source. Korea: Fought to a draw. We lost 36,000 men. The estimated total of North and South Korean, and Chinese military and civilian deaths ranges somewhere between 3 to 3.5 million depending on source. Iraq and Afghanistan: Will be fought to a draw. Who knows what the totals will be, but we will have lost 5 to 10k men, and it's not impossible to imagine that the number of Iraqis and Afghanis killed will be in the millions. It seems to me that these are not wars, but planned genocides, with both sides in on the gig, and our troops the patsies. We are vying for the title of genocidal champions of the world.
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. Approaching Lavender - Gordon Lightfoot Yep, I am a folk music lover and country music resonate with it I like allot. I recommend an early album called "If you could read my mind" which originally was titled, "Sit down Young stranger," which is his far and above best anti- war song. The song on divorce made the charts and took the album's title from a better song, so it goes. But the reason I mention it is it is a really unusually good album that remains a favorite of mine. And my first copy I got from the store had the original title as I bought it as a new work. I am a long time fan of Gordon Lightfoot's work and singing. I saw him here in Eugene the summer of 2007 and I am glad he is still with us. He is a human treasure, a singer songwriter extraordinare. The above embed is from that album, and the one below is that Vietnam war era anti-war song. Sit Down Young Stranger - Gordon Lightfoot ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZJeotpIcJs )
Box Tops - The Letter what a gorgeous video. i love lavender. plum/purple and all its variations is my favorite color. in fact, i don't allow my landscaper to plant any other color flowering shrubs in my yard.

When we were moving back from CA in 1985 we stopped in Lafayette, LA for a month and I gigged with the keyboardist from my former band there. He also had a standing gig every year at one of the many outside fairs there and he took his Yamaha Baby Grand Piano to the job. (A heavy instrument but worth it) Well, when he and those seasoned country players (backing a local "star"-Pee Wee Thibodeaux or somebody) did LAST DATE I was so blown away that I talked about for hours after. There was just enough ambient reverb (I was actually behind the stage) and the piano sound was so great that it just knocked me out! What a song. It was always a pleasant melody but it never affected me like that!
Here's a country song you might like.
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. so very nice......
Last Date is poignant, great stuff. Our eyes should blur on this one.
Yep...........can truly be said they made beautiful music together. She is one of my all time fav female vocalists.
But seriously, this is a great song:
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. Yep. Even more true now, than then. Great one - thank you.
That's one of my all time favorites. Timeless.
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. Good job, DAWG. Memory road, revisited. Man, what feelings these revive. Thanks.
Wasn't the operative word in the title of this thread "little"? The song that made ME cry when I was little? "Rock a bye baby, in the tree top..." When I got to the part about "down will come baby"; I was bawling like a banshee AND sh*tting my diaper at the same time. :-)
lmao!
I shall not vote for evil, lesser or otherwise. LOL........you nut!
Agree - instrumentals are not supposed to affect us this way. But some do.
What a song. It was always a pleasant melody but it never affected me like that! Great. Just great. I'd love to hear it live, full-blown, with all the stops pulled out.
Me too. San Jose, Alfie, Message To Michael, etc., take me back to a time when I could hear great compositions on AM rock & roll radio stations, and America was a better place then.
It is, isn't it?
I believe that you've just nailed it.
Reminds me of Last Date -
