    • @Kathy0851

      @Klemheist WWII ??? The Loved Ones - headed by the legendary British-born Gerry Humphries - were a Baby Boomer favourite who did not make their first appearance until the mid-1960's. One of their most memorable songs were "The Loved One" or the classic, "Sad, Dark Eyes" .... they will go down in history as one of the best, most talented Australian bands of the 1960's. Click on the links below to hear these signs which were THEME SONGS to the lives of so many Baby Boomers who were teenagers in the mid-1960's. Gerry Humphries was an absolutely BRILLIANT, charismatic performer - once seen, NEVER forgotten!

    The Outro just sends chills, involving the intertwining of Ross' vocal, the choral section, those power chords on electric guitar , and Eric's amazing guitar solo that was cut short for commercial airplay purposes. The song is dripping and rich in the elixir of oxytocin.

      My dad was a speed demon too. We had our Mini doing 80mph. His later Jag did well past that, as well as the Charger and Cobra and Brock Special (Holden). He let me drive the Jag when he visited the first time. I'd just driven through a roundabout, and thought that seemed extra quick, but the steering was beautiful. It was then dad casually mentioned that the car's speedometer was mph not kph. Zipping through a town roundabout at highway speed... I survived it, all good.
      I loved his Brock Special and he let me borrow it for a trip away once. Some speedos stop at 180 klicks. I have no idea how fast that car was. It was almost like flying. I can still remember the feeling.
      Back to what you were saying, when dad bought his Ford Cobra he had the current best sound system fitted.
      Our Sunday drives in the bush back roads (lol, yes we were bushies) was filled with music that seemed to surround us. The start of surround sound and multiple speakers. There was something special about it back then, when music seemed to wrap around you. The home stereo/record player had nothing on the car's sound.
      I think I've used up all the word I'm allowed to use in one day, bye.

    this song is bitter sweet for me, ill explain, im 40 now, when i was a teenager i never dated i never held hands with a girl, never did any of that, and this song reminds me every time i hear it on the young love i always missed out on, because girls always thought i was a nerd and a loser and shy etc... its such an injustice and such a shame, i wish i dated when i was a teenager, there were so many pretty girls in my high school like Shanna seamark, bronwyn hope, Claire Miles, Julia Beresford, amanda hobden, but they never even looked at me ONCE , they always just talked to to COOL guys, unfortunately i wasent one of them, so its a great song but it breaks my fragile heart every time i hear it because it reminds me of what i never experienced in my youth.

    is it just me, or does every generation have their decade? my mum used to go on about how much better it was back in the sixties: the best drugs, the best music, carefree sex (she never outright said that last part, but i realised how she danced around it as i got older). Now here I am, reading these comments and agreeing that the eighties was amazing, and the feeling i get from this song and others like it cannot be put into words. Is it just nostalgia? Am i just remembering the good parts? Because i look at today's charts and can barely name a song worth listening to. And most of the ones i do like don't hold any significance for me. Songs like this one just make me want to meet a girl on the beach, hang out all day listening to eighties music, drinking, making love and having carefree fun. Which is how i think i see the eighties.
    Maybe its all a delusion, but i sometimes sit listening to music like this and i feel like im missing something i had back then.

      Ryder Knightly, I’m hearing you! I’ve finally turned into my Father. I just can’t cop too much of the current “stuff” that passes as music these days. Born in the 60’s and love all the stuff from then up to about 2010. That’s 50 years, which is a pretty good spread of musical genres. Image being born in 1900 and having to endure the next 50 years! Mind you the last concert I went to was Joe Bonamassa. Only discovered him about 5 years ago. So, there is still good stuff out there.

For someone 10 plus years younger than me the 90s and for my kids the 2000s in high school 2003 to 2010 although they are 28 and 30 but now feel the responsibility’s of adulthood as their friends are getting married and having kids .

Patti Newton had Grandkids late 78 and can hold her grandchild for ages while being interviewed. Quite amazing . So don’t have to start having grandkids till mid 60s and really it’s up to your kids .
