Incredible songwriter !! xx ❤

A true wonderful song.

His voice is younger than he is 🗣

And still after adding this song to KZfaq this brilliant man is still getting comments. Thank you Neil for being you. Your song is neverer a true true work said!!

The song is about the break up of his friends, Sonny and Cher Bono.

James & Beth, had it all, there’s a saying, you don’t know what you’ve got, until it’s gone, everyone should read a book called, KING OF CLUBS, by Maureen PREST, she was James’s PA at the Batley Variety club, West Yorkshire, England.

Once there were a couple who was so poor that they fasted monday Wednesday Friday and Sunday so they wont starve to death. Then they won millions from lotto. The first thing they do was buy delicious food and has been doing it for years until the doctors told them to stop eating too much delicious food because they have become too obese and suffered several sicknesses. The husband said it was better before when we were poor because we could eat anything we like even bananas were considered a feast. So the husband said: I miss the hungry years and Neil sedaka wrote a song for this couple

Thank you Neil for all those wonderful memories and times that your songs reminded me. You miss the hungry years while I miss the wonderful years of my youth I'm now 63 years young. The wonderful memories that your songs brought back. Thanks Neil please continue bringing those wonderful songs of yours

Fire

Beautiful song

Neil was such a peppy guy with oh so many earlier peppy songs, and later some very poignantly meaningful songs. God now has added yet another greatly talented member to his celestial choir. R.I.P., Neil. You were always there when we needed a little uplifting, and now God has lifted you up FOREVER.

How is there thumbs down . I really don't understand why anyone can say this isn't the 1 of the most beautiful song in the world. Dad brought me up with all the oldies , all 7 of us. Lost dad sept 1st 2022 😢. Lost my mam 2017 6 weeks after my beautiful nephew commited suicide. Also lost my big brother Ricky to suicide😢. Wish I could turn the clock back . Memories of mam , sad and my childhood. I feel so ssd and empty 😢😢❤

Sedaka’s Back was one of my favorite albums.
