On my way to something completely different —
I was listening to Perfect Love Songs: Vintage 1930s & 40s Romantic Easy Listening with Ella Fitzgerald, Perry’s Como on You Tube the other night, and my eyes happened to catch this comment from six years ago.

These songs make me miss the old times I’ve never been to, and miss the person I haven’t met. ~ Risksa Putri (6 years ago)
Some of the responses….
I remember me and my girl on these times Good old times we were very young and she was pretty and perfect. Walking on the streets of NYC at night on the 1950s. But the problem is that this have never happened. I’m 20y old now. And I dont even have a girlfriend. ~inSanic (4 years ago)
We can be sure that we lived in that old time once…. The memories and feelings are real. ~Dora Orban (4 years ago)
Me too rizka I just sometimes cry for sometime even my grandmother didn’t exist ~Soufox (2 years ago)
Exactly the same feeling … May be there is a time that bodies don’t remember but the souls do! ~Ammonada Zeon (2 years ago)
That’s the magic of this kind of long ago music, it’s like nostalgia. A song that can break your heart over someone you never met. ~Clean Water (2 years ago)
At 39, I think anything may have been possible, including having a past life/lives. I don’t fit into these current times and have always had an old soul. Only in these songs can I feel connected to my One and Only whom I’ve still never met. I sometimes think we might’ve been born in different eras and therefore I must wait until the afterlife to finally meet him and have that true “old” style love, and that actually lasts forever. ~Laundry Basket (1 year ago)
I too share a deep feeling of sadness for all the people I haven’t met on both past and present time periods. All the things I’ll never experience. ~Evelyn Wolff 7 months ago)
And finally…(added but not shown…that’s okay…it’s still there)
