Hundreds of songs remind me of being a teen but this is the most poignant and personal of all of them. The words fit a situation I was in in 1974, when this came out, perfectly. Lots of pop is and was about other people, but this was about me.

Thanks, Cole!

@Carmen74 I remember it being called 'deadpan', but I think this version captures the meaning behind Cole Porter's words perfectly. I associate it with the summer of that year; a vivid reflection of time and place.

Carmen74 · 46-50, F

@supersnipe Yes 74 was a good year 😌lol

supersnipe · 61-69, M

@Carmen74 I was never that fond of this period, but these days I just remember the good records and forget about the ones I didn't like. I never hear them on the radio any more, so I can just forget about them. This is one I have in my collection 🥰

@Roadsterrider In truth mine was actually a 72 Pontiac lol. But the sentiment of the song was very true and very strong lol

Roadsterrider · 56-60, M

@EagleV You got that right, working on mysteries without any clues, what a wonderous exciting time in any young man's life.

EagleV · 51-55, M

@Roadsterrider yeah.. . Sweet Summertime! 😇

Many songs but this one was played in the bus on a great school trip when I was 16 so I will always remember it.

Thank you for Best Comment.
Of the songs I posted, Reminiscing is the best for me.
LRB was one of the great Australian bands of the 70's
Now they are based in the US with none of the original members playing

@Gusman You're welcome ☺️🌺

@Carmen74 When I hear this song, I am immediately transported back to 19 years old, sitting on the board walk with my 19 year old wife, me fresh out of bootcamp and starting a life. I got divorced at 21 but those first few steps into who I am today are truly happy moments for me, and today, almost 40 years later, I can call her up and talk about those times and enjoy it.
