This song I heard on an Olive Garden commercial brought back memories of my younger days with my family.
Does anyone here have any memories from those days in the early 70's?

The song was a big hit in the UK by The New Seekers.

Thanks for the post, The Sicilian. I hadn't listened to any Delaney and Bonnie for a while, spent much of today playing their music. Great stuff - took me back to my younger days as well.

Here is a moving comment I found with the video:
In 1971 I used to drink my lunch in a bar on Larimer St. in Denver Co. This song was on the jukebox and i played it every day, sometimes twice. One day the song was missing and I asked the girl why it was not there. She reached behind the bar and handed me the 45 and said they were putting on new records and she knew how much I liked it. A week later, I found that she had taken her life. I will always have a connection with this song, that time in my life and that girl. Thanks for posting it.

Lous band-- and they spawned so many other great bands / musicians--
Joe Cockers Mad Dogs & Englishmen, Bobby Keys & Jim Price with the Stones, Derek & the Dominoes, and more-- they were a HUGE influence on music in 1969-1970... Claptons 1st solo album could have been a Delaney & Bomnie album-

I had the exact reaction when I saw the commercial. I love this song, and it is one of those songs that are so of their time. In a good way. It takes me back to being a kid in 1971. I think songs like this, that have not been so overexposed and overplayed and marketed in commercials or movies, are as special as an old family photo. Priceless.
