nostalgia | My grandma really loved elvis ???s music .. so we played this song at her funeral .. everytime i listen to this Song there are so many memories in my head |
not nostalgia | i guess most of us leave it too late before we tell someone just how much we really love them |
nostalgia | I love this song reminds me of the love of my life |
not nostalgia | I have such a hard time showing my love for the ones I care about, I keep pushing them away. And because of this I lost the most amazing girl I have ever met. Give me one more chance to keep you satisfied |
nostalgia | When I hear this song it reminds me of everything in my life. I live on the side of a great love. I imagine in the lyrics of music. |
not nostalgia | I think when Princilla left him it all started to go wrong for him. He loved her and Lisa Marie. So sad!I wish he had been able to fulfill his life, he was a gentle soul. |
nostalgia | I ruined a relationship with the most beautiful, wonderful, loving woman ever. This song reminds me i should have been more transparent, i broke her heart. And i regret it 10 years later. |
not nostalgia | So sad I never get to see him wish I was in the time of elvis Presley and Michael Jackson |
not nostalgia | Always was and always will be the greatest,always been my favorite singer..awesome what a loss he was to the world |
not nostalgia | I???m only 16 years old but I???ve always had people listen to him he???s amazing |
not nostalgia | I grew up hard and never learned how to love and whenever I'm in a relationship I never told any of them that I loved them. I'm probably going to die alone because of the little things I can't say or do to show a woman I love her . |
nostalgia | I love this song so much. I can still remember my mum Mary sat curled up on my fathers lap while he sung along to this song. He had the most amazing Welsh Singing voice and the loved they shared was so deep. I miss them both so much but I am glad they are still together. Thank you mum and dad for showing me how to give and receive love. I was very blessed to have you both in my life. |
nostalgia | A great song which reminded the happy memories of my youthful days in the USA. |
nostalgia | I could swoon everytime I hear this golden baritone....heard it growing up..and makes me nostalgic. |
not nostalgia | I love this music too. Maybe you didn't get what I meant. There was little glich before with Barbiedolly. |
nostalgia | I remember i was 11 years old, standing in my aunt's kitchen with family all around. and the announcement came on tv that elvis had died, and watching all the adults go into shock. i was shocked too. |
not nostalgia | I was in 2nd grade when this movie came out. When you age, your memory is your only treasure. Build a treasure for your youth. |
not nostalgia | Pay attention to lyrics in this classic..My life very much relates to it in many situations..That???s why I love this joint. |
not nostalgia | this song helps me when i feel like given up , very inspirational |
nostalgia | Rip sweet mum how I miss you so and this song you used to sing to me as a child reminds of you |
nostalgia | all his songs brings tears to my eyes so many memories |
not nostalgia | The 4 Tops were amazing, Levi Stubbs had one of Motown???s greatest voices, up there with Smokey, Marvin, David and others. Don???t forget to hear and give thanks to the Funk Brothers. Jamie Jamison, troubled, but a great bass man, and all the others underrated. |
nostalgia | This song came out in 67, I was 5 yo. It was my favorite song then and my mom bought me the 45 record and I still have it. The Motown sound is still alive and well in my memories. |
not nostalgia | The SOUL in his voice, and at such a young age he had so much vocal power. Seventeen years old, what a legend this man |
nostalgia | I was 19 when this song came out, it brings back some good memories of that time. |
not nostalgia | Who wrote this song? I think maybe Steve Winwood. He was only 17 as well. By the way Spencer Davis was a teacher at my old primary school for a while. My son now goes there. |
not nostalgia | Someone said he's 16 years old there..hard to believe .but he's really good for that age. |
not nostalgia | If I tried to sing like that I'd blow my voice out. Great tune. |
not nostalgia | It's not a black thing it's a soul thing ,if you got it you got it and he's got it , natural . If it's in you it's got to come out |
nostalgia | I heard these guys on the radio for the first time when I was in college. Thought they were a black soul group. Fantastic. Steve Winwood probably in his teens. |
not nostalgia | It's a shame they aren't too popular or recognized now. They really are a great band with smashing songs. |
nostalgia | he 60's and 70's were fantastic years for the rock. good times were that times |
not nostalgia | I loved that song in the 60's. I had no idea until I read your comments that Stevie Winwood was singing it! |
nostalgia | I was 14 when I first heard 17 year steve winwood fantastic on am radio to boot MONO no stereo |
not nostalgia | absolutely beautiful masterpiece, solid gold standard of excellence, phenomenal sound, top of the line great music & memories of life, 100% pure talent |
not nostalgia | Steve is so under appreciated now. Few younger people realize what a soulful virtuoso he was in his teens and beyond. Somebody please invent a time machine! |
nostalgia | Brings back the memories thats for sure |
not nostalgia | NOW THIS IS MUSIC from a long time ago,,1967 i think,,WOW,,,There aint nothing to touch it nowadays,,,,Peace. |
not nostalgia | I was always told to give it your best shot the FIRST TIME and from that point on You will only get better !! I rest my case |
not nostalgia | Wow, this voice ! I discover this group and it's not often to hear such voice. Fabulous ! Thank you for this great share. |
not nostalgia | The Age Of Adaline brought me here. Enjoying the evening with my youngest daughter viewing the movie, when she ask who the band was. I'm 60 she's 22. |
nostalgia | I was on my way to San Francisco what a time that was! Great song??? |
not nostalgia | This is my favorite version of this song. But then, I have never heard a bad version. Love Merle's too. |
not nostalgia | Sad song that tells of a man reminiscing about his past, his home, his family, and his love before he is executed: exists |

not nostalgia | I was only 8 when I was first introduced to this song. I am now 14 and still in love with it. I shall thank my grandma. |
nostalgia | I'm 16 and I so clearly remember dancing to this song with my mama. |
nostalgia | This was my mum's song, her name is Laura, my dad always sing this to her everyday.. he is no longer with us but in our hearts he remains always.. |
nostalgia | My mum had this song on tape when I was a kid (early 80s) and I remember thinking it was the most depressing thing I'd ever heard. |
nostalgia | when I used to do banger racing , we always played this in our lorry when ,we were on the way to a race meeting with the banger cars on the back . great times :-) |
nostalgia | My grandad listens this on a CD with me and I learned the words but sadly he passed away and we will miss and love him I lost him when I'm 11 I will always miss him:( |

nostalgia | TURN MY MEMORIES BACK IN 1993, TO LAURA FROM COMO, ITALIA, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU |
not nostalgia | One of the finest hit singles of 1960 as I do love this single as it really Stands out for me |
not nostalgia | what happened afterwords though, one hit wonder! like so many a lovely voice but get lost. |
nostalgia | Beautiful!! I remember this and it's lovely! What a beautiful video you made for us! Thank you for the work of it! |
nostalgia | I remember this growing up, used to hear it on the radio and my mum used to play it, was one of them tunes thats always stuck with me. Later on in life i used to sing it to my daughter when she was growing up as a toddler (obviously changed it to her name which is Leoni) and it used to bring tears to her eyes. She's im her late teens now, i dont even know if she would remember it. |
not nostalgia | what a nice song one can relax and enjoy this song i love it |
not nostalgia | My name is laura n my friend keeps on singing this to me |
nostalgia | This song reminds me of my dad that I lost last year. He one of my dads favourite singers. |
nostalgia | this was my grandfathers favorite artist i absolutely love his music great memories come with his music thank you jim reeves |
nostalgia | "Distant Drums" is maybe the first memory of Jim Reeves and his music. The memory is as dear to me as Reeves' voice. Unforgettable and beautiful. |
not nostalgia | Shout out to all the teens (like me) that can appreciate great tunes like this |
not nostalgia | A brilliant song that really highlights a tragedy so well. |
nostalgia | banned from radio for been to sad personally i think my bonnie lies over the ocean is sadder and we used to sing that in school lol |
not nostalgia | That is such a coincidence because Laura happens to be my 17th favourite name EVER |
nostalgia | 1960 I was a teenager and this was a very big No. 1. It was in the charts for weeks. A very memorable one hit wander |
nostalgia | Brings back some good memories lol |
not nostalgia | Decent version of the song, but until this video compilation I'd never pictured "Laura" as a cheap, trailer park skank. |
not nostalgia | do not create music like this anymore and people who have had sorrow knowing laura it is a personal thing ,but maybe the music adds comfort |
nostalgia | My first love was a girl called Laura, a young 14 year old me but i never plucked up the courage to ask her out, we was best of friends for a long time during the early 90s but went our separate ways. 20 years later i found her on Facebook, got in contact, messages got flowing, we met up and 4 years later we married, had kids and living happily ever after. Joking, the first part was true, the later part is bullshit. |
not nostalgia | grew up to these sort of songs better than the crap now can hear the words |
not nostalgia | The best music EVER created, and should NEVER be forgotten. |
not nostalgia | The video lyrics are wrong in some cases and only half finished in others. |
nostalgia | Laura I remember lived at Blackstone crossroads I wonder where she is now??? |
not nostalgia | The young lady in this video is certainly not 1960 vintage. She's very much 21st Century. |
not nostalgia | What a nice song such nice words made in calmer days not like to day do they make any good songs now? |
nostalgia | Oh I love this song so very much. My Dad use to sing it when I was a child, he had such a beautiful voice and this reminds me of him. Beautiful song .. |
nostalgia | Memories, memories,is sad that they gonna but the music never forget.I love JIM. |
nostalgia | Jim Reeves music reminds me of my grandparents who loved his music and i remember hearing his songs when i was young, and my nan singing along to his his songs RIP nan & grandad |
nostalgia | I wish I had this experienced head on my younger shoulders back then, things Would have been a lot different. |
nostalgia | I love all his songs bring back memories of yesterday |
not nostalgia | Why do all the sad songs seem to bear my name? |
nostalgia | Old men usually sing this to me. The caretaker at school sang it everyday to me and it was so embarrassing. I just need to find a Tommy now and life would be sweet |
not nostalgia | Please be careful about what you say. You are talking about a person who was the greatest entertainer of our time thank you. |
not nostalgia | This is the greatest concert in the history of music. |
not nostalgia | Gorgeous man, a voice that would melt your heart. |
not nostalgia | He was called the King, but still under-rated. I wish he had known how good he was. |
nostalgia | This played at my Grandad's funeral just over a year ago. It was one of his favorites. I'd kept my composure relatively in-check throughout the service, but as soon as this song started I completely and utterly lost it. My Nan is named Mary too, so it really hit home for all of us. Thinking about it now, this song is very melancholy but also very uplifting, which I guess makes it quite peaceful. There couldn't have been a more perfect song choice. |
nostalgia | Love this song so much, no one can sing it like Jim Reeves!I live in constant chronic pain, I listen to this song, reminds me of dancing with my husband who passed 3 years ago. He worked all over the world mining, when we got engaged we danced to this. |
nostalgia | My parents played this a lot when I was a kid and teen. My father is now living with me in his old age, and listening to this brought back a lot of feelings. My mum when she was alive and younger. My father as a man in his prime. |
not nostalgia | You can see from his face when he sings those high notes in the last part how much he's satisfied with that voice and delivery. |
not nostalgia | I take nothing away from James Taylor when I make this statement. He is no doubt one of the greatest artist in American Music and one of the most prolific song writers of all time. With that said, Taylor may have written this song to mock white blues artist but here's the thing, in my lifetime I've listened to his (Taylor's) version of the tune maybe three times. |
not nostalgia | MOST AWESOME SONG EVER AND SUNG BE THE COOLEST PERSON EVER AND HIS NAME IS ELVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
not nostalgia | I just wish I could have seen him live just once. He was the best there will ever be for me. |
not nostalgia | Priscilla had been gone over a year at this concert and Elvis appears FINE and enjoying the ride! |
not nostalgia | Just imaging him rolling over me right now lol My he was a stunning gorgeous looking fella. ?He certainly left this earth too soon however left his mark., |
not nostalgia | I love all genres of music singing by this incredible Man, but blues song the most. Mr. Presley you were awesome singer. Really the Best of the Best. No doubt, you still do not have comparison in the World. Great in so many genres. Still only one. |
not nostalgia | I like how he laughs at the beginning of the song then looks to the side. Would love to know what he was thinking. Always and forever the King of all music |
nostalgia | Good lord, what a time to be alive, take me back to 73??? |
