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 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 🥰
