Good mid-late Friday afternoon, my Brothers and Sisters!
I haven't posted any music in a long time, so this afternoon as I was driving, a few of my oldies came up on my USB drive library in my SUV... One of those songs was this one by the Four Lads in 1955... I was about 13 Yrs old back then, but I loved this song... "Moments to Remember"... Many of you weren't around back then, but some of you know this group and the genre of the time...
About the Four Lads:
The Four Lads is a popular Canadian male singing quartet. In the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, the group earned many gold singles and albums. Its million-selling signature tunes include "Moments to Remember," "Standin' on the Corner," "No, Not Much," "Who Needs You," and "Istanbul."
About Moments to Remember:
" "Moments to Remember" is a 1955 popular song about nostalgia recorded by Canadian quartet The Four Lads. The song was originally written by Robert Allen and Al Stillman for Perry Como but was turned down by Como's management. The Four Lads recorded it in June 1955 for Columbia Records as the B side to the single "Dream On, My Love." Bernie Toorish of the Four Lads credited the enthusiastic endorsement of Cleveland radio DJ Bill Randle for increasing radio airtime play and popularizing the recording."
LYRICS:
"Moments to Remember" by the Four Lads
January to December, we'll have moments to remember
The New Year's Eve we did the town
The day we tore the goal post down
We'll have these moments to remember
The quiet walks, the noisy fun
The ballroom prize we almost won
We will have these moments to remember
Though summer turns to winter
And the present disappears
The laughter we were glad to share
Will echo through the years
When other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways
We will have these moments to remember
The drive in movie where we'd go
And somehow never watched the show
We will have these moments to remember
When other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways
We will have these moments to remember
The drive in movie where we'd go
And somehow never watched the show
We will have these moments to remember
Written by: Al Stillman, Robert Allen
Enjoy my Brothers and Sisters...
