Nelson Riddle and His Orchestra

When You and I Were Seventeen

When you and I were seventeen
And life and love were new,
The world was all a field of green
And skies were smiling blue,
That golden spring when I was king
And you my wonderful queen,
Do you recall when love was all
And we were seventeen?

A wonderful song that brilliantly set the atmosphere for the 1974 movie The Great Gatsby. Nice that the singer (Nick Lucas) was still around (and still performing) when that movie came out in 1974.
