Love this masterpiece. I was 15 in 1975. Just started dating the most beautiful 14 year old girl on the planet. Heard this song as I rode my bicycle back from her house every night. I'm 63 now. She's 62. Married forever. She's still the most beautiful girl on the planet and we still listen to this song together and it takes us back to the summer of '75.❤
I myself was 15 when this song came out. I try to explain to a younger generation and even to some of my colleagues from my own age group just how magnificent the music was from 1975 to 1995 but words are not enough. If you were lucky enough to have experience this song and many many others like it as a young adult then you were truly blessed. Thank you for posting your memory. It brought back some of my own.
@@jaymestratton6235 When I was younger, I'd see old people with their grey hair and walking sticks and just think they were a different species to me. It still surprises me that I've become one of that species.
Just lost my wife and this song is all about her, the love of my life. She waited for me and we stayed together for 42,yrs of marriage. God I miss her terribly and it’s only been 4 months. The song is a killer emotionally. I can picture her right now at prom.
you're right to cling to the beautiful memories of her. She was a gift from God as, so is this fantastic song. Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit has filled a similar void in my life and given me the power to go one. God bless.
Because of music like this, I just want one more week in the 1970’s. As a teenager then, that was absolutely my happiest time in my life, before pain and regrets took over. This song is so hypnotic and classically played, I used to play it over and over, as it put me in a trance. I miss the 1970’s, and so may we have peace from God my dear friends and learn to love each other like brothers and sisters and enjoy music like this forever.
I was 13 lying on my towel on my town beach in South Shields UK on a rare warm June day and this song wafted across from someone’s radio and I thought it was the most heavenly sound ever. 45 years later aged 58 I still do
@@musiclover5023 wow a shared moment in time across the decades. I think what made me sit up (literally) was how new and out of step it was. Back then it was all about volume ( Slade, Roxy Music, Suzy Quattro plus any number of glam rock and metal bands) then this layered, harmonious almost ethereal piece came along. Anyway it’s great we can access this beautiful music so easily (keeping me sane in Lockdown - just!) .Thanks for touching base
Never thought I would miss 1975, but damn I do and would go back if I could. Life was simpler back then and much more innocent. This song is the tip of the iceberg as to why this time was wonderful.
I was 17 yrs old in 1975 and getting ready to graduate from high school. This song has beautiful memories of carefree days. I am 65 now and preparing to retire and still listening to this song. We had the best music.....
Ich war 15 Jahre alt und sofort tief berührt, als ich 1975 diesen wunderbaren Song von 10cc das erste Mal hörte. Heute, 45 Jahre später, liebe ich dieses zauberhafte Lied immer noch und die Melodie beamt mich leicht und einfach zurück in meine Jugendzeit. Was für eine sphärische Melancholie und magische Klangwelt! Einfach göttlich!
I was there, and I know what you mean. I was going out with my high school sweetheart. I was planning ahead and heading off to college. My high school sweetheart headed out west. Loved that girl and that timeframe. Music like this brings the old memories back. Fast forward, met another girl who became my wife, mother of my children. We've been together 43 years now, have two grownup kids and 4 grandchildren. I wouldn't change a thing, but music from this timeframe, and this song very much included, brings back a lot of fond memories. I wish my grandkids can experience the same similar joys that I got to. Life is so much different now.
Me and my boyfriend graduated in 75. We were both the same age and started dating at 16, married at age 22. Had 2 beautiful girls. My beloved husband passed away in 2004 from a heart attack. I never remarried. He was my one and only true love!!💕 I miss him every single day. I’m 67 now and I’ll see him again one day in heaven 🙏💖💕
I use to smooch to this song with my then girlfriend, at the Execative disco. We are married and been together for 49 years, we are still very much in love, Maria xxx
46!?😱. Oh my God am I so old. I was 10 when this song came out over the radio waves. Jaws was the number 1 hit movie on the silver screen and Disco was going stronger than ever. I love my childhood. Wish the way it was back then here in America was the same today. I miss everything of how America used to be
I guess she never asked for her picture back that was covering that messy stain on his wall....of course he knew that she knew....I really dint mean that much too him...
YEAH and when you play and sing it it's an astoundingly simple trick. You got A-major , you fiddle with it and drop it to minor. These guys knew something else.
Listen to BREAD...❤️❤️..You will have tears in your eyes for sure...Miss that time..Life was different... Not Like today..Worlds out of Control...Sad man...❤️😁🎸🥁✌️👍🌠🌈
"I'm Not In Love" by 10cc, released in 1975, is a classic rock ballad that stands out for its innovative production, lush arrangements, and the unique story behind its creation. The song was written by band members Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman, and its recording process was nothing short of groundbreaking. The story begins with Stewart's exploration of a new piece of recording equipment, the Ericsson Vocoder, which allowed him to manipulate and blend sounds in innovative ways. During a recording session, Stewart began experimenting with the device, creating a sonic landscape by layering vocal harmonies and other sounds. The band soon realized they had stumbled upon something special and decided to build a song around these experimental recordings. The distinctive vocal sound that permeates "I'm Not In Love" was achieved by recording the voices of Stewart, Gouldman, and other band members singing a multitude of notes. Each singer was asked to sustain a single note for as long as possible, resulting in a vast collection of vocal tones. These recordings were then mixed and manipulated using the Ericsson Vocoder, creating the ethereal and choir-like vocal texture that became a defining element of the song. Lyrically, "I'm Not In Love" is a complex exploration of love and denial. The protagonist of the song insists that they are not in love, yet the repeated refrain of the title suggests a tension between the denial and the underlying emotions. The lyrics capture the ambivalence and vulnerability inherent in matters of the heart, making the song relatable to a wide audience. The recording process of "I'm Not In Love" was painstaking and meticulous. The band utilized a unique technique of creating a sonic mural, layering tracks upon tracks to achieve a rich and immersive sound. The result was a groundbreaking piece of work that defied conventional expectations of what a pop song could be. Upon its release, "I'm Not In Love" became a massive hit, reaching the top of the charts in multiple countries. Its success was not only due to the captivating production but also the emotional resonance of the song. The innovative use of vocal techniques and production methods in "I'm Not In Love" set it apart as a trailblazer in the world of pop music, influencing subsequent generations of musicians and producers. "I'm Not In Love" remains a timeless classic, celebrated for its artistry, innovation, and ability to capture the complexities of human emotions. The song's enduring popularity is a testament to its status as a groundbreaking piece of musical history.
Well said as it was a masterpieces n still Is I wish I can go back to this day I was so young. 49 yrs ago my goodness feels like if it was yesterday when I was just youngster... amazing very beautiful song even though it was sad.
Do you know any place that's Channel good. I don't want to hear your voice or how about the first the service gig Sunday Govan I don't want to hear your stupid coming for God are you going to say for everybody else stupid who's going to love your brothers and sister I just don't know what do you make in your life nothing garbage to go out to buy me with this you're on you own garbage
Same here, i was in Knebworth Park in the UK in 1976 when 10cc played there, i was working for Artistes Services on security & i can remember exactly where i was when 10cc started playing this song. Everytime i walk past the same spot it takes me back to the summer of 1976, Happy days!!. And 10cc were much better than the Rolling Stones who played later in the day!
I’m “only” 60…I clearly remember being totally captivated by the atmospheric sound of this song, and even if I couldn’t fully grasp the lyrics, LOL. My being about 13 and rather slow on the uptake hardly negates the fact that this song is iconic…
@@tonyjones1560 here here I'm with you Tony my sweety was a kid in the early 70s and music like 10cc was just beautiful especially I'm not in love a very sensual song indeed ♥️♥️♥️😍😍😊😘
Γειά σας από Ελλάδα! Αυτό το τραγούδι είναι το αγαπημένο μου τραγούδι και δεν θα το ξεχάσω ποτέ. Το 1975 ήμουν 15 χρόνων και τώρα είμαι 63 και ακόμη το ακούω και θα ήθελα να πάω πίσω σε εκείνη την εποχή!!!
My God we had no idea what was to become of this world... none of us had anything fancy yet everyone seemed happy and genuine. I was 10 when this song came out but it truly feels like it was just yesterday.
So true. It was a simple life and world. This song brings me back to being 18 and in love. Immediate joyful memories. Our world is radically different now.
3:48 I use to stay upstairs in my room and across the street was a friends house and the boy I liked would go to his home. I waited a long time for him But my parents sold our home and I never saw him again. Yes this song makes me remember waiting a long time.
@@pattyoconnell1953 When I was six and in first grade, there was a boy in my classroom who was so different from the other kids. I was a little girl, but I felt this little boy's spirit. One day, he was no longer in our classroom. He and his family moved from Chicago to the suburbs in the fall of 1973. I felt that he would have been the only one who I could relate to, and I was right. I never saw him again, but met some of his neighbors in a restaurant who told me that he was still a very kind, quiet, humble person who married a very good woman. I felt that at that point, I would be eaten by savages...and I was.
I particularly remember hearing this song for The Very First Time, coming from my neighbor's radio back in 1975 when I was only an 11 year old kid.I was playing in the backyard with My Beloved Siblings on a Beautiful White Clouded Sunny Day, and Being So Happy 😊 and thinking How Truly Beautiful The Moment, and Life was at That Moment. I'll Never Forget That Day, I felt like I was In Heaven, and I Truly was at that moment in time. Thank you 10cc for making This Beautiful song that is Cemented in My Memory Forever.🥰🥰👍👍👍!!!
Eu tinha 16 anos naquela época...bons tempos aqueles!!... éramos puros e românticos ...posso fechar os olhos e me sentir-me de volta ao passado!! São Paulo/Brasil
I will never get over this song. Found it when I was in middle school, listened to it every single day and never got tired of it. Such a masterpiece. xx
I agree,,,it made sense while growing up,,can't imagine radio without this one tune,,,stops me in my tracks yet today,,,,total trance...love forever😯whoever you are...pat
I was 10 years old in 1975. It seemed there was always a radio on everywhere you went back then. You learned these amazing songs without even realizing it. This song resonates so deeply in me as if it’s always been there.
I was 11, and didn't know what love was, but knew how moving this song was...and is. There is an amazing documentary from the band on the making...and the girl who whispered "Be quiet, big boys don't cry, big boys don't cry, big boys don't cry,..." was the producers secretary.
Man.. I Loved this song for so many years...Just a Beautiful song..Great song..When I hear this...Brings me to a Big open Field walking..Sunny day or a Rainbow...Looking in the distance as far I can see....Brings me to a different Place...So.............Beautiful....60s..70s..80s...The Greatest Music ever...❤❤😁🎸🥁👍✌️🌠🌈
Those of us who were teenagers in the 70’s were so fortunate to experience the music, I was 16 when this came out and this song still sounds so fresh to this day, just like Lowdown by Boz Skaggs also💕
One of the most technically perfect songs ever recorded. Timeless. And how can you resist that luscious voiceover “Be quiet. Boys don’t cry…Boys don’t cry”?
I was 15 yrs old love this song I met my husband at 10 yrs old as friends we went to high school together and Senior Prom we fell in love married at age 23 he passed away 5 mths ago Thank you 10CC for a special lyrics song
@63 i still remember hearing this song in 1975 when i was only 15..!! I still love it as much as i ever did!! "The Things We Do For Love" another great song if theirs..!!🎶🎵
I remember this song way back when, I was seeing Darlene off and on for years, and kept telling myself that"I'm not in love" But I truly was, I have been married to Darlene now for 21+ years.
This song should definitely be put in a time capsule (along with so many other singers, composers and bands' masterpieces) and then be sent to space as a sample of the beautiful things this civilization did.
Plenty of people write songs like this even in 2023. But none of them get to be recorded and become global hits because the world doesn't work that way anymore.
Had a big juke box and pool table game room at the public pool .these songs take me back to the 70s the simple times before computers cellphones . For you kids and adults too young to remember, the early 70s to 1980 where great times as a 1967 model these old song's like this , take me back like it was yesterday. .. Big boys don't cry... Big boys don't cry., 😊
Wow! The absolute best times of my life ❤Yes I'm listening to this and it is now 2023....And still after all these years no music no lyrics have ever topped these great songs and yes songs with meaning ❤❤❤ I will forever miss that wonderful time and wish it could come back. Love to YOU all xo. We were beyond blessed to have lived and been in that great time. Right? Sray safe and take care 💖 Mary from California..
@@FRANKLOMBARDI-iv5xs After reading your comment I listened to the song again and just started tearing up, Thanks alot Frank 😥💟 Lol...lol... But for real it really is so great to read that you have the same feelings about that time in our lives. But yeah I did cry I know that's probably silly and a little embarrassing for me to even say Everything seemed so different then and I think oh no am I sounding like my parents when they talked about their time, Maybe I am wrong but I believe we had the best it just seems like a more selfish world now.And that song (all the songs then) Was great!! I will cherish all of that always! Well I thank you again so much for sharing. Take care and stay safe!! Hey can I ask you something? That song when he says "I'm not in love "...From a guy's view he really is in love right? Does he just not want to admit it? Lol ...I had to ask...LOL LOL. 🤗
Just hearing this transports me back to the absolute best summer there was! Hot weather, fantastic parties with this as the soundtrack. I was 19 and life was just wonderful with no angst or worries just wonderful people and happiness . What a song !
YESSSSS ...... brings back the most wonderful memories of my youth, too. No worries, free, happy .... and happy in love with my then boyfriend now husband for 45 years.
What I love about this group is they were a true team and whoever had an idea they would work on it together. Everyone was involved. No egos, just the love of music. Great band.
@@Screenwriting That required many hours of recording and manual editing, sometimes with scissors, all analog , no digital pitch correction. Few are willing to do that much work these days.
@@melvinbrown1347 Not saying there were no effects, nor was the engineering particularly unique, Zappa did this a lot. I’m saying that the effects were all analog and very, very painstakingly manually edited. The melotron-like background vocals were recorded over many hours and mixed over many more. Few would bother to take that kind of time today. Like firing up a steam locomotive.
Какая прекрасная песня. Я говорю вам, когда мы росли в 70-х, у нас было много замечательных артистов и авторов песен, мы просто не понимали, насколько все это здорово. Такого рода музыка это просто шедевр .И это 1975 год.
@Larry DeLeau I always heard that heart beat too! The song is beautiful, music like that is so good for the world but too many people now don't understand that.
This is one of the saddest and most beautiful songs that I have ever heard. It's inconceivable that anyone could or would even attempt to equal it today.
it is one of those songs you automatically remember what life was like back then, the people you use to hang out with, good times and bad. Love this song forever
Tempos que não esquecemos jamais. Músicas eternas , a sociedade perdeu a sua essência e sensibilidade para compor . Anos dourados , nos levam a viajar em um sonho indescritível , quem viveu sabe do que estou dizendo. Essas músicas deveriam ser tocadas em todas as rádios. Quem sabe despertam novas inspirações.
A time of real artist with real talent. A time when songs were written with meaning and beauty. A time when artist were multitalented. A time of Love and Good living. I feel sorry for the kids of today.
Concordo plenamente, até hoje eu escuto, foi época com tantas músicas lindas, infelizmente hoje em dia tá difícil as músicas hoje a maior parte é lixo!!

Me too ❤
I miss it too.... Wish I could go back.....
Don't we all. Wish it were possible to go back.
Me too. This is an amazing song.
This reminme of growing up with no worries in the world. I'm a 53 year old black guy,I love this song.

Just lost my wife and this song is all about her, the love of my life.
She waited for me and we stayed together for 42,yrs of marriage.
God I miss her terribly and it’s only been 4 months. The song is a killer emotionally. I can picture her right now at prom.

An Entire Generation of the Summer Of Love is still watching and living in the past. I prefer the past. That's how Powerful our time was and still is.
Still listening I lost my best friend and he loved this song 🎵
I'm listening up here in Canada. This song brings back nice memories.
Yes a true Masterpiece of better times. I'm now 66 and it makes me sad that our country has changed so much.
But this music will last forever.
It's just mind boggling isn't it? I'll be 66 this year myself. Cheers!

@@user-wx8jm4ve9w I agree 💯%
YES!!
I agree with the '70s but I'd take the mid to late '60s over the '80s. The best classic rock was the mid 60s to mid 70s.
This song makes me want to go back to the 70s and 80s and live out the rest of my life there forever. Best time ever to be alive.
I love it that my 22 year old grandson loves this song.
This Song moved through my life like a river! I am 64 and still moved.

The story begins with Stewart's exploration of a new piece of recording equipment, the Ericsson Vocoder, which allowed him to manipulate and blend sounds in innovative ways. During a recording session, Stewart began experimenting with the device, creating a sonic landscape by layering vocal harmonies and other sounds. The band soon realized they had stumbled upon something special and decided to build a song around these experimental recordings.
The distinctive vocal sound that permeates "I'm Not In Love" was achieved by recording the voices of Stewart, Gouldman, and other band members singing a multitude of notes. Each singer was asked to sustain a single note for as long as possible, resulting in a vast collection of vocal tones. These recordings were then mixed and manipulated using the Ericsson Vocoder, creating the ethereal and choir-like vocal texture that became a defining element of the song.
Lyrically, "I'm Not In Love" is a complex exploration of love and denial. The protagonist of the song insists that they are not in love, yet the repeated refrain of the title suggests a tension between the denial and the underlying emotions. The lyrics capture the ambivalence and vulnerability inherent in matters of the heart, making the song relatable to a wide audience.
The recording process of "I'm Not In Love" was painstaking and meticulous. The band utilized a unique technique of creating a sonic mural, layering tracks upon tracks to achieve a rich and immersive sound. The result was a groundbreaking piece of work that defied conventional expectations of what a pop song could be.
Upon its release, "I'm Not In Love" became a massive hit, reaching the top of the charts in multiple countries. Its success was not only due to the captivating production but also the emotional resonance of the song. The innovative use of vocal techniques and production methods in "I'm Not In Love" set it apart as a trailblazer in the world of pop music, influencing subsequent generations of musicians and producers.
"I'm Not In Love" remains a timeless classic, celebrated for its artistry, innovation, and ability to capture the complexities of human emotions. The song's enduring popularity is a testament to its status as a groundbreaking piece of musical history.

I was 17 in 1975, one of the best songs from that year. I'll be 65 soon, I still remember all the words. The 70's had some of the greatest music.
Same here, i was in Knebworth Park in the UK in 1976 when 10cc played there, i was working for Artistes Services on security & i can remember exactly where i was when 10cc started playing this song. Everytime i walk past the same spot it takes me back to the summer of 1976, Happy days!!. And 10cc were much better than the Rolling Stones who played later in the day!
Yo tambien cumplire 65 años. Y me sigue gustando esta melodia. Hermosa😍♥️
I’m “only” 60…I clearly remember being totally captivated by the atmospheric sound of this song, and even if I couldn’t fully grasp the lyrics, LOL. My being about 13 and rather slow on the uptake hardly negates the fact that this song is iconic…
@@tonyjones1560 here here I'm with you Tony my sweety was a kid in the early 70s and music like 10cc was just beautiful especially I'm not in love a very sensual song indeed ♥️♥️♥️😍😍😊😘
@@ceciliatorres5544 Es mágica hasta la fecha muy buen tema
Let's not forget that wonderfully melodic bass part leading into the whispers. Absolute masterpiece that still chokes me up after all these years.
Ya man I hear that.

Γειά σας από Ελλάδα! Αυτό το τραγούδι είναι το αγαπημένο μου τραγούδι και δεν θα το ξεχάσω ποτέ. Το 1975 ήμουν 15 χρόνων και τώρα είμαι 63 και ακόμη το ακούω και θα ήθελα να πάω πίσω σε εκείνη την εποχή!!!
Em 1975 eu nasci. 🥰
Sou do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Estou com 48 anos e amo essa música.
I am 78...still love it! One of the wonderful ones, everlasting.
Big boys don't cry 😢- bullshit.
One of the most beautiful love songs ever written. Timeless and unforgettable.
you right, timeless Masterpiece
Virginia Bravo absolutely
Maybe I'm Amazed by paul McCartney or Thank You by Led Zeppelin are the the best unarguably.
Virginia Bravo this the dirtbag anthem
@@b3at2 The lyrics don't seem romantic at all. More like an anthem for friends zone lol
My God we had no idea what was to become of this world... none of us had anything fancy yet everyone seemed happy and genuine. I was 10 when this song came out but it truly feels like it was just yesterday.
❤ yep
So true.
It was a simple life and world.
This song brings me back to being 18 and in love. Immediate joyful memories.
Our world is radically different now.
Sadly the world has decayed since then.
it´s hard to not be in love to 10 cc songs
I could listen to this song a million times and never get sick of it.
I've probably listened to it a million times. Still one of my favorites.
Same here.
me too!!!!!!!!! Hi everyone from Athens Greec!!! LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!
Hello, hope you're somewhere safe from the virus
@@mariakorakaki4116 stay safe from all of those fires. Love from Northern California
Best time to grow up. I was 17, nearly 18 when this came out. Best music, simpler times.
Wasn't it bloody marvellous back then. In '75 - I was living in England, came back 'home' in '76.
Home is Melbourne Aust.
Beautiful❤,where are these times...
60s...70s...80s...Greatest Music Ever..In those years...❤❤❤😁🎸🥁✌️👍🌠🌈
@@FRANKLOMBARDI-iv5xs i glad remember,how romantic💞💫🌠🌌
I lost the woman who I will ever love. Never take for granted what you have, folks. Trust me.
Mate no how you feel same boat just keep going it's hard day's 😢😢😢❤❤😂❤
Here I am... Feeling the same.
And yet another soul feeling the same loss and hurt as you. Stay strong if you can
3:48 I use to stay upstairs in my room and across the street was a friends house and the boy I liked would go to his home. I waited a long time for him
But my parents sold our home and I never saw him again.
Yes this song makes me remember waiting a long time.
@@pattyoconnell1953 When I was six and in first grade, there was a boy in my classroom who was so different from the other kids. I was a little girl, but I felt this little boy's spirit. One day, he was no longer in our classroom. He and his family moved from Chicago to the suburbs in the fall of 1973. I felt that he would have been the only one who I could relate to, and I was right. I never saw him again, but met some of his neighbors in a restaurant who told me that he was still a very kind, quiet, humble person who married a very good woman. I felt that at that point, I would be eaten by savages...and I was.
This song never gets old. Hauntingly beautiful.
You can say that again.
C est vrai
Frfr...The music back in day meant something, made sense and was very respectful... I always loved this song.❤❤❤❤
It’s ageless like us, the listeners, I feel as young now as I did 1975, but i’m 67 now.😂🙏☮
You nailed it!!😺😁
I particularly remember hearing this song for The Very First Time, coming from my neighbor's radio back in 1975 when I was only an 11 year old kid.I was playing in the backyard with My Beloved Siblings on a Beautiful White Clouded Sunny Day, and Being So Happy 😊 and thinking How Truly Beautiful The Moment, and Life was at That Moment. I'll Never Forget That Day, I felt like I was In Heaven, and I Truly was at that moment in time. Thank you 10cc for making This Beautiful song that is Cemented in My Memory Forever.🥰🥰👍👍👍!!!
I love this song from when I was 20. 70s, 80s music was so good
I was 18 in 1975. Everything in this song is light years away. It always makes me travel beyond the universe. Thanx, 10cc - ✌️✌️
Me too! 18 in '75! I go right back to then when I hear this dong!
Me too. I was off to college that year. This song was all over the radio for months.
guardian galaxy brought me here
Eu tinha 16 anos naquela época...bons tempos aqueles!!... éramos puros e românticos ...posso fechar os olhos e me sentir-me de volta ao passado!! São Paulo/Brasil
@@fatimarn1¡De acuerdo! Parece que estaba así por todo el mundo durante los 70s. ❤️
This song brings back so many teenage memories never to be forgotten.
I was 16 when it came out, waiting to start my first proper job. Hope your teenage memories are all good ones .
Same here, those were the simple days. This song and music from the 70's always puts me back there, growing up in northern California.
Junior High 😁
Carefree times back then.
Yes! First teenage love!
1975 was the happiest time of my life and this song made it happen.
hi I was 14 an the fella I was with loved him he loved me but years passed went different paths but always think of him fondly when hear this 😊
I will never get over this song. Found it when I was in middle school, listened to it every single day and never got tired of it. Such a masterpiece. xx
I agree,,,it made sense while growing up,,can't imagine radio without this one tune,,,stops me in my tracks yet today,,,,total trance...love forever😯whoever you are...pat
Aquí también. Lo mejor de lo mejor. 10cc
Totally agree with you, such a masterpiece. 10cc also had other masterpieces, a great band from the great music era of the 1970s.
Juliza tu as tout à fait raison! Merco.
Sister of tones!
I was 10 years old in 1975. It seemed there was always a radio on everywhere you went back then. You learned these amazing songs without even realizing it. This song resonates so deeply in me as if it’s always been there.
Amen
I too was 10 years old
I was 15 years old and yah this was music was music. Not junk of today.
Me too.
I was 11, and didn't know what love was, but knew how moving this song was...and is. There is an amazing documentary from the band on the making...and the girl who whispered "Be quiet, big boys don't cry, big boys don't cry, big boys don't cry,..." was the producers secretary.
Man.. I Loved this song for so many years...Just a Beautiful song..Great song..When I hear this...Brings me to a Big open Field walking..Sunny day or a Rainbow...Looking in the distance as far I can see....Brings me to a different Place...So.............Beautiful....60s..70s..80s...The Greatest Music ever...❤❤😁🎸🥁👍✌️🌠🌈
I love returning to 1975. This song just makes me feel good inside. Good times for me
It is not just a song... is a masterpiece...
Those of us who were teenagers in the 70’s were so fortunate to experience the music, I was 16 when this came out and this song still sounds so fresh to this day, just like Lowdown by Boz Skaggs also💕
I was born in the '80s, and I still did to enjoy it today. Some music is just timeless.
Me to was 16. I love 10cc.
Just listened to Boz
@@margaretbrady9158 Me too
70's music ❤❤❤
I was 13 when this came out and it's still one of my favourite songs. It's got an ethereal quality like a dream
Alot of time and pain went into making this track
It's a masterpiece
Yes!
A beautiful and haunting piece of music.
Beautiful and haunting are the most accurate ways to describe this musical masterpiece... thank you, David Michael. Cheers.

YEEEEEESSSSS!!!!
I don't think any song has ever hit me in the feels quite like this one. A timeless masterpiece.
ABSOLUTELY!!!
I agree
I know exactly what you mean, something I can't put my finger on, it takes me some where but I am not sure.
1975 graduating high school. What a smooth soulful song
Exactly what I believe as well 🫠
One of the most technically perfect songs ever recorded. Timeless. And how can you resist that luscious voiceover “Be quiet. Boys don’t cry…Boys don’t cry”?
FACT… ONE OF THE ALL TIME GREATS
I thought they were singing, "Big boys don't cry." ? .........
Am l wrong then ? Kind regards. I will have to research the lyrics xx
I was 15 yrs old love this song I met my husband at 10 yrs old as friends we went to high school together and Senior Prom we fell in love married at age 23 he passed away 5 mths ago Thank you 10CC for a special lyrics song
Mine just left this beautifully earth onro his next phase one year ago ❤❤
@63 i still remember hearing this song in 1975 when i was only 15..!! I still love it as much as i ever did!! "The Things We Do For Love" another great song if theirs..!!🎶🎵
I'm so sorry love and comfort.
I remember this song way back when, I was seeing Darlene off and on for years, and kept telling myself that"I'm not in love" But I truly was, I have been married to Darlene now for 21+ years.
Congratulations, man. You're living the dream.
When you were off is when I was on, dude. Hiya Darleeeeene!!
Congratulations ❤️🌹
Seems I ignore that feeling
Memories of an old girlfriend at Jacksonville NC, Camp LeJeune, when I was in the United States Marine Corps.
This song will never get old, classic.
You got that girl
I was in 8th grade when this song came out! I am 63 and the tune still sounds amazing.
This song should definitely be put in a time capsule (along with so many other singers, composers and bands' masterpieces) and then be sent to space as a sample of the beautiful things this civilization did.
Sim
They don't write songs like this anymore. Absolutely gorgeous.
Nice to here. Im vom Germany. My Englisch not. Sorry
It's all your fault, leftist.
Truly Truly
Plenty of people write songs like this even in 2023. But none of them get to be recorded and become global hits because the world doesn't work that way anymore.
2023 Still listening to this awesome song. The greats last forever! ❤️💥✌️
Smiles,hi Cindy 🤗
My ex husband and I would sing this song as loud as we could. Such a classic love song. Good memories
Had a big juke box and pool table game room at the public pool .these songs take me back to the 70s the simple times before computers cellphones . For you kids and adults too young to remember, the early 70s to 1980 where great times as a 1967 model these old song's like this , take me back like it was yesterday. .. Big boys don't cry... Big boys don't cry., 😊
They'll be playing this on Mars in 2060.

Lol...lol... But for real it really is so great to read that you have the same feelings about that time in our lives. But yeah I did cry I know that's probably silly and a little embarrassing for me to even say
Everything seemed so different then and I think oh no am I sounding like my parents when they talked about their time, Maybe I am wrong but I believe we had the best it just seems like a more selfish world now.And that song (all the songs then) Was great!! I will cherish all of that always! Well I thank you again so much for sharing. Take care and stay safe!! Hey can I ask you something? That song when he says "I'm not in love "...From a guy's view he really is in love right? Does he just not want to admit it? Lol ...I had to ask...LOL LOL. 🤗
not another jesus freak
One of best ballads of all time TIMELESS
This song with ( love hurts by Nazareth)
I wish I could go back there few days just to have that wonderful feeling again. It will never be forgotten. I lived every single moment of it!!
They don’t write songs like this anymore, sadly.
Sad but true
Just hearing this transports me back to the absolute best summer there was! Hot weather, fantastic parties with this as the soundtrack. I was 19 and life was just wonderful with no angst or worries just wonderful people and happiness . What a song !

I was lucky enough to see 10cc live here in Montreal in 1978. Front row seats.and so amazing.
What I love about this group is they were a true team and whoever had an idea they would work on it together. Everyone was involved. No egos, just the love of music. Great band.
The good old days a sweeter more innocent time😢
Not just beautiful and thoughtful, this recording is actually a masterpiece of sound engineering that can never happen again.
Yes the recording is top notch.
why not?
@@Screenwriting That required many hours of recording and manual editing, sometimes with scissors, all analog , no digital pitch correction. Few are willing to do that much work these days.
@@bobconnor1210that's not true , I have heard plenty of low fi bands ,and punk rock bands and post often recorded with no effects
@@melvinbrown1347 Not saying there were no effects, nor was the engineering particularly unique, Zappa did this a lot. I’m saying that the effects were all analog and very, very painstakingly manually edited. The melotron-like background vocals were recorded over many hours and mixed over many more. Few would bother to take that kind of time today. Like firing up a steam locomotive.
Какая прекрасная песня. Я говорю вам, когда мы росли в 70-х, у нас было много замечательных артистов и авторов песен, мы просто не понимали, насколько все это здорово. Такого рода музыка это просто шедевр .И это 1975 год.
Are you a Russki?
Мы раньше не слышали таких исполнителей. только помню передачу по Маяку "На всех широтах" и что-то в новогоднюю ночь...
1975 was a great year with great music.

Thank you 10 cc for an amazing song/story. I was born in 1963, very fortunate to have been present to Witness the Best Decades in Music.
I was also born in 63. We are lucky.
Ditto.
63 here also but still feel like a 10 year old !! 12 when this song came out. Not old enough to appreciate it back then but I do now.
Born in ’63 here too. Yep we we’re lucky for sure
Cuando salió esta canción aún no había nacido ..pero q hermosa canción hoy q ya tengo más de 40 años la sigo escuchando
If you listen very carefully..you hear a heartbeat throughout the song...nice touch..💓
Oh yeah. Nice catch.
Yes, It feels like my heartbeat💟
It wouldn't be a love song without a heart beat , timeless classic.

Tempos que não esquecemos jamais. Músicas eternas , a sociedade perdeu a sua essência e sensibilidade para compor . Anos dourados , nos levam a viajar em um sonho indescritível , quem viveu sabe do que estou dizendo. Essas músicas deveriam ser tocadas em todas as rádios. Quem sabe despertam novas inspirações.

Also a time with no autotune.
