One of my favorite song. I thought it would be a nice black and white video. Alas! There is no video of this song. Heard that this song was written for Linda Eastman aka Linda McCartney by Jack Lawrence.

Mar 12, 2011 - I had a very good friend named "Linda" when this came out. I admired her so much. I was only ten at the time and she was a teenager. I wanted to be like her and wear lipstick. All the boys thought she was pretty.

Sep 22, 2011 - I heard this song for the 1st time about a month ago on XM 40s on 4. It's a beautiful song. It caught my attention 'cause I've been looking for a song to sing to one of the prettiest girls in town. You'll never guess what her name is! Anyway, I've always thought things of that sort were special. She's seeing a really nice guy, so I can't do that. However, whenever hear this, I remember her beautiful smile.

Mar 16, 2012 - Brings back happy memories. My ex-wife was named Linda and her brother had given her an old .45 of the song. I had never heard it before I married her. She asked me to learn it so I could sing it to her. Well, here's to happier days. Thanks for sharing.
SmokeyGunn357 Says:

Apr 27, 2012 - i loved the version of this song by Perry Como, don't remember if his version included the 'conversations' by this singer and girl.

Jun 13, 2012 - Pretty song, unfortunately not only is this style of music "dated", but the name "Linda" is as well! It peaked in the early 1950s, even passing Mary in 1950 for number one, and is today generally thought of as a name for aging boomers, and to today's little kids, Grandma. But the spirit will live on and will someday have a renaissance like Hazel, Violet, and Olivia.
