The Best Days of My Life is an album by American pop
singer Johnny Mathis that was released on January 29, 1979, by Columbia Records and scaled back considerably on his more than decade-long practice
of recording recent hit songs by other artists. He did, however, cover two standards:
"As Time Goes
By" and "Begin the Beguine",
the latter of which is given a disco arrangement.
The album made its first appearance on Billboard magazine's Top LP's & Tapes chart in the issue dated February 24, 1979, and remained there for
seven weeks, peaking at number 122. It also made it to number 38 during a
five-week run on the UK album chart.
The first song from the album to reach any of
the charts in Billboard was a duet with Jane Olivor titled
"The Last Time I Felt Like This" that was written for the 1978 film Same Time,
Next Year and was nominated for the Academy
Award for Best Original Song but lost to
"Last Dance"
from Thank God
It's Friday. The duet entered the magazine's
list of the 50 most popular Easy
Listening records in the US in the issue dated
February 24, 1979, and peaked at number 15 over the course of 12 weeks. Another
track from the album, "Begin the Beguine",
entered that same chart five months later, in the July 21 issue, and got as
high as number 37 during its five weeks there. The only song from the album to
reach the UK singles chart was "Gone, Gone, Gone", which made its
debut there the following month, on August 11, and reached number 15 during a
10-week run.
The album was first released on compact disc
in 1989, and on January 27, 2015, Funkytowngrooves released an expanded edition
of the album on compact disc that included five bonus tracks, two of which were
disco mixes that came out in 1979 on a separate 12-inch single.
Hello, I don't even know your name, but I'm hopin' all the same
This is more than just a simple hello.
Hello, do I smile and look away? No, I think I'll smile and stay
To see where this might go.
'Cause the last time
I felt like this, I was falling in love,
Falling and feeling, I'd never fall in love again.
Yes, the last time I felt like this, was long before I knew
What I'm feeling now with you.
Hello, I can't wait
till we're alone, somewhere quiet on our own
So that we can fall the rest of the way.
I know that before the night is thru, I'll be talking love to you,
Meaning every word I say.
'Cause the last time
I felt like this I was falling in love,
Falling and feeling, I'd never fall in love again.
Yes, the last time I felt like this, was long before I knew
What I'm feeling now with you.
Oh, the last time I
felt like this I was falling in love,
Falling and feeling, I'd never fall in love again.
Yes, the last time I felt like this, was long before I knew
What I'm feeling now with you.
