Jesus loves you and cares for you, he is waiting for you to come to him, go to him, his love for us is true, if it wasn't, he wouldn't have taken those nails through his hand and a spear to his side.

There Was A Commercial I Remember,And It Was All The People On The Train. It Said "Keep Our Railways Quieter And Greener." I Knew That Was The Ink Spots When I Heard It The First Time

I found a CD case of my fathers. The CD is missing but the case lists lots of songs that I knew he had on vinyl and transferred to CD. This one I wasnt familiar with so I had to find it, if I could, and have a listen. Happy to listen to one of his memories :)

This is one of my favorite songs by the Ink Spots. I'm an old guy, so I kind of grew up with them. Some posters have asked why the Ink Spots opened every recording with the same, simple, guitar sequence. For one thing, they were smart. They performed knowing that, at a time where melodic lines and fabulous harmonies were the rage, the words and the music were wedded to each other. They let the melody and the lyrics tell the story; and they enunciated they lyrics with precise clarity. To be sure, the bass then did a recital. Folks loved these standards; and when you heard the Ink Spots you knew the words as well as the tune.Bill Kenny was said to have been quite a pisser in live performances. He did impersonations, and impersonations of other celebrities impersonating him. He was a quick wit - could have done stand up if he had decided to.What comes through for me, now as well as 70+ years ago, is how the group cherished the songs they recorded.

Great version by a great team of recording artists!

They could sing.There is something haunting about this song.

Someone asked about the cemetery  depicted throughout the song. I focused on the piano grave marker, THORNTON and found it:"Highgate: Thornton, H. (1918) London's Highgate Cemetery. Taken in January 1977. Marker for William Henry "Harry" Thornton (1883 to 1918), who was a classical pianist and played music for the troops in World War One. A photograph of this same grave marker taken in 2007 (by someone else (Andy Vortex) and posted on Flickr) shows the area is much more overgrown and the lid of the piano is completely missing. Another photograph taken in 2000 also shows the lid is missing. A photo taken in 1979 shows that lid lying flat with the arm holding the lid up still standing. Just barely visible on the lid of the piano is the name, "Harry Thornton." Mr. Thornton died during the influenza pandemic of 1918. According to "Find-a-Grave" this marker is located in the East Side of Highgate Cemetery."... and I would have guessed Louisiana or Savannah, GA.
