Just you know why
Why you and I
Will by and by
Know true love ways

Sometimes we'll sigh
Sometimes we'll cry
And we'll know why
Just you and I
Know true love ways

Throughout the days
Our true love ways
Will bring us joys to share
With those who really care

Sometimes we'll sigh
Sometimes we'll cry
And we'll know why
Just you and I
Know true love ways

Throughout the days
Our true love ways
Will bring us joys to share
With those who really care

Sometimes we'll sigh
Sometimes we'll cry
And we'll know why
Just you and I
Know true love ways

This was the Bride and Groom's first dance at their Wedding Reception.
We were guests and there was not a dry eye in the house at the end of it.

Huh?

I could see some show using this in a scene. Better Call Saul comes to mind though it's ended its run




Lol, came to suggest this would have been good in Mad Men and see my earlier comment
RP is exposing me to stuff like this - stuff that would not normally show up on my radar.   One cool song after the next

As to 'who chose this sappy arrangement' I highly recommend viewing 
The Buddy Holly Story starring Gary Busey.  Your question will be answered. 
Truly great film, Gary and The Crickets just nail it.

the bass player in the movie is a cousin of mine. Charles Martin Smith. Creative family . . , his dad and uncles were animators (Peanuts, Woody Woodpecker, Gulliver's Travels etc)

Not exactly rock and roll, from one of the father's of same. Who chose this sappy arrangement? Still, it's a nice tune, and quite similar to a lot of other pop and movie tracks of that era which, alas, is quickly becoming ancient.

We?  Speak for yourself.  
Soundtrack for my first romance.  I discovered girls in the 3rd grade.  Like being struck by lightning in a really good way.  Sigh ...

A candy-colored clown they call The Sandman tiptoes to my room every night... There were some amazing artists who can raise the hair on the back of my neck with just a whisper... Buddy and Roy were certainly among them. Divine, immortal music, to be sure! Thanks, RP, for the ongoing celebration of The Spirit!


You're right remember this is where Rock and Roll came from and he died at the age of 22 . In his prime. along with other amazing artists

You have a choice.     (and)
I'm sorry but his music has already been published.

Such a clean, clear voice. No enhancements required - effortless, timeless,  and soothing.

I really enjoyed that ‘Wanda Vision’ show. Although extremely depressing, Buddy must have been an influence?

Man, personally, I dig hearing the arrangements that were considered the "norm" back in that day...the strings in this are so fun...even if they are sappy...
Love me a deep cut every now and then...LLRP! 
Thank you, Bill, for a perfect segue from 'American Pie'....

I grew up hearing The Buddy Holly Story LP the next bedroom over and am a fan. But I don't recall this track being on that album, probably with very good reason.

Bill, I see what you did there. Buddy Holly, followed by American Pie. Nice!

 

EdmoJoe,   I second that comment  wholeheartedly....BTW I spent a week in Banff this June...great country you have there.... 
Bill, I see what you did there. Buddy Holly, followed by American Pie. Nice!
Perfunctory homage to some overly-romanticized artist who died entirely too early = 2.
It probably could have remained idle for a while longer.
old school dreamy

holy crap!! this has been sitting idle for 3 years now. please play it.

Please play me.
