My father's favorite song...he who gave all for me and my family...we played it at his funeral...why is it all our fathers are described in this beautiful song? Is it what waits for us as well? Dad, I owe you everything...I can only hope I can be half the man you were. Frankie Laine...thank you for immortalizing this feeling. Can't type anything else right now, crying too much
A wonderful singer and magnificent man. Saw him at 92 years old on a "My Music" show on PBS, still singing, Albert Lovecchio, used to dance in marathons in Stamford, Connecticut in the 1930's. RIP.
6 months ago I listened to this song daily as I was working a horrible job where the boss bullied me and the employees spoke down to me, the job wasn't good and I stayed back each night past 5 to complete all the work given to me.
But a month of listening to this song made me realise there's a lucky old sun out there shining bright, but I won't find my way to it unless I took a chance. So I quit my job, took 2 months of many interviews to finally find my dream job. The people I work with are amazing, helpful and the boss is just fantastic. I go home with a smile each day, the 3 hour commute doesn't even phase me as I'm now happy. I'm now that lucky old sun.
After 3 months there I have bought my dream car, a Nissan 370Z and I feel things are starting to go my way. I am still single and fail to find a woman who is girlfriend material, but one day that will happen. I'm just very happy that I'm not where I was 6 months ago.
