Some of these comments make me feel old!!! One says not the original. It's live!!! That turned out to be his biggest hit. Tom Brumley on steel played for years with Buck Owens. Wonder how many remember the Ozzie and Harriet show!!!! I had the privilege of along with one of my brothers and 2 other guys I know to work with Ricky.

@@ronfowlermusic: Omg, are you completely tone deaf? There is almost nothing about this live version that’s the same as the original recording, from the very opening notes to the pedal steel solo to the guitar solo to the vocal maturity to the backup harmonies other than that it’s the same song and both were done beautifully.

This is this is absolutely one of my favorite songs from him. You know people can be really cruel they expect you to look like you're 16 when you're 75. They wanted to sound exactly the same and look the same and they don't have the mentality to know you don't stay the same. I know it broke his heart but I am so proud of him he busted every one of them without saying anything mean he got them in a song. That's why you never play Madison square garden because people are just not the same. Ricky was a great man and a great singer and I hate they did that to him but he came back with the best banger ever

I had the privilege of seeing Rick Nelson in concert at Knott's Berry Farm,of all places, way way back, I was just a kid at the time, and the so-called good time theater was still called the John Wayne Theater at the time that he was playing. Literally what happened in the song happened while I was there. I went with my father who was very opinionated, and he got up and walked out when he saw what Ricky Nelson looked like at the time. He had long hair and a shirt with cut-off sleeves and old jeans and my dad got peeved and walked out- so that just goes to show you how true these lyrics are😊

I was born when this was popular. So-this is now I know Ricky. I love that this song is an ode to getting older and adjusting-realizing people want your old hits but you got more his in ya that might never be heard by anyone. But, when you get your chance play ‘em! That’s ok! Then write a hit about how them old times are gone but it sure was fun anyway.

The audience wasn’t booing him. There were several independent witnesses who said they were booing the cops who were kicking out some rowdy audience members. I wonder how Ricky felt after he released the song and then found that out. Probably not too bad. He might’ve been a bit embarrassed but it was a million-seller so he made a few bucks off of it.
