    My guy of 6 years passed on Dec.31,2020. This was his all.time fav song. He would watch this video over and over. Frank had been battling stage 4 cancer the last 5 1/2 years we were together. I never left his side in those 6 years. Love you, Frankie

    Percy Sledge was and still is one of my favorite singers. GOD willing, I'll be 74 years old on September 17th, 2021 and I've been sitting at the PC for hours to listen to the old songs.

    While the choir sang,
    Ave Marie I was singing with all my heart
    And I sent a special prayer, up to heaven
    That you'll return to me before I fall apart
    While the choir sings hallelujah
    I was singing with all my heart
    Darling please come back and never leave me again
    And this will be (this will be) the answer to my prayer
    And I'll wait, here for the answer
    That you'll come back, come back I pray
    For if you stayed, away another hour
    Well I don't think I could last another day
    While the choir sings hallaluyah
    I was singing with all my heart
    Darling please, come back and never leave me again
    And this will be an answer to my prayer
    Umm, umm, umm, um-hm

When I got my first job in 1971, I bought the 33rpm album containing this song for $2 with my first paycheck. I still keep the album, 47 years later together with many other beautiful albums I bought at the time. This is timeless music.

    I wish I was born your time, so I can join your generation in embracing these type of music. Very much original and unique. RIP Percy Sledge

      We didn’t get to hear great songs like this back then, unless you happened to get the album…. Great songs like this didn’t get airplay. Now is the time to enjoy all the great music that was skipped back then.
