When this was released I was working as a janitor in a Kellogg’s cereal factory. The only furniture I had was an old bus seat I'd found on the curb. I listened to this every day for months. It kept me alive. Thanks Mr. P.

She looks and sounds like my dead lover. Only after three years can I watch this without tears.

Reading that article has made me lose a bit more of my faith in humanity.

This reminds me of my friend Jane . Every Christmas I hope against all hope she is alive and well. She was my one and only true friend I had my whole life. Every Christmas I look for a card from her but it never comes... Love You Jane

thanks

no problem

I have been looking for this song for a couple of years - not remembering either the title or the artist. We used to listen to it. Now it is only the song and my memories. Thank you very much for this moment.

love this:

The old saw is that writing about music is like dancing about architecture, but writing about music on YouTube is like clambering up on the architecture, hanging banners and family photos on the window ledges, or tossing garbage from the gables. Its anonymity makes it all the more like a group portrait, hauling us into visibility in all our bedraggled need. It’s not that you can’t or shouldn’t formally analyze or evaluate a song, but YouTube’s intimate entanglements make it plainer that doing so is no more the end of the process than gossiping about your family, even to your therapist, is a resolution to the relationship.

way to get name dropped dude! saw this when one of my non-ilx affiliated friends posted this on FB!

s1ocki writes about it all for Buzzfeed

Yeah, that was a great read.

Loved this, thanks S1ocki.

thx dudes!!!

This was playing first time I went to a big night club. All dressed up smart clothes only, shiny shoes. It was a night club called chevaliers in stanmore. It was with a flame haired girl who was in a leopard skin dress. Debbie was her name. It didn't last. The night club has gone. I had this tune in my head for better part of 30 years. I only tracked it down this year. I hear this and I'm back there. That's the power of a song. No a great song.

The name: Williams Mix, made in 1952, eerily represents my family. We five children growing up in the 50's amidst parental chaos, the atom bomb, increased modern media, McCarthy, the Red Scare and Rock n Roll. Our name was Williams, the grown ups drank, there were many secrets, much music and a lot of disconnectedness. I vote this John Cage to be the background if there were movies of my family . There aren't. My parents didn't even think to buy a movie camera to capture their 5 beautiful kids

"I had a little room in the east end of london in 1978 just after my marriage had broken up.. I had a little old record player and this single.. I put it on repeat and cried and cried and cried..."
