My name is Wendy, I was born in 73, my parents loved the Association. We went to see them in concert at Lewis and Clark Community College in Godfrey IL when I was a kid. My brother and I were in the parking lot tossing a football, waiting for the concert to start, when a few guys came by and played with us. A bit later, while listening and enjoying my very first concert, one of the members of the Association, said this song is dedicated to a little girl who really knows how to play football. Then they played Windy! Right then I knew that song was for me! Its one of my most cherished memories! Thank you to the Association for that great moment in my life.

35,000+ likes and 791 dislikes? I graduated high school in 1966 and college in 1970. Can you imagine a time when the radio was filled with stations all playing this sort of music? The music back then literally defined our lives. When I hear a song of some artist back in those days, I'll immediately have a flashback of somewhere or something I was doing at that time. Truly remarkable times. In our teens and early twenties, we hadn't the maturity or age to understand how fortunate we were. Only with 20/20 hindsight of 55+ years can I look and listen back and truly value what we had.

Your comment is very ignorant. There is music with harmony, and melody, and substance is subjective. No offense, but a guy singing about a girl is not the most creative gold. People are still doing that.But you are right that a lot of people do long for “better days.” I see a lot of people wanting good music, but are too lazy to look for it, or just want music that sounds like stuff from the past. I honestly doubt this is superior to everything of today, when you probably only heard mainstream music. How do we know this old music wasn’t the top 40 that outshined “REAL” music of its era?

Those upbeat songs are so rare, but so needed to counteract the many sad or neutral songs that don't make you feel so good, as "Windy" (4 weeks at #1) counters so effectively! Along with The Doors equally infectious "Light My Fire" (3 weeks at #1) immediately following, these two giant songs in dominating 7 weeks of mid-1967 anchored one of the greatest Summers in rock history! "Windy" started the week ending July 1 through July 22, "Light My Fire" July 29-Aug. 12. And after that was The Beatles "All You Need is Love" for the one week, Aug. 19. Then "Ode to Billie Joe" by Bobbie Gentry for 5 weeks (Aug. 26-Sep. 16). Look at all the wonderful #1 hits for 1967 here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Billboard_Hot_100_number_ones_of_1967.

Mine too, along with another #1, the greatest hard rock song I've loved since '67: "Light My Fire" by The Doors! A back-to-back twosome hitting #1 that has rarely been equaled in any Summer, or in any season in the rock era! "Windy" written by a woman: Ruthann Friedman (then 23, b. Jul. 6, 1944), who can be heard singing at the fade-out, as she later told people; wrote the song in 20 minutes at David Crosby's house. .

@@mustangmikep51 : There are a lot of now 60-something year old people who loved this music 50 years ago and still love it now. This was counter-culture music when it came out. It allowed all of us hippies to find some solace and some shelter from the Vietnam War, from the tensions that came about as Congress struggled to pass the Equal Rights Amendment, inflation was crazy, and music underwent a huge transformation sparked by the British Invasion. But it got us through, didn't it? We don't have bands and singers like that anymore, but we do have film, tape, and digital, and we have video images to back up the music. We, the children of the 60s have another important job to do right now. Are we up for it? I am. Record companies make records that people want to buy. Most of us, I posit, still have the bulk of our favorite music in storage or within reach. Ee aren't going to be big spenders because we don't need to buy much, and those of us on pensions can't afford to spend more on music than we need, which might just be a better system to play it on. We need to get the media behind us to stop playing all the bullshit music of today and start playing our music again. It's good protest music and we better get off the couch, turn off the TV and start protesting again before we lose all the retirement and health care we worked so hard to get. The tumes they are a-changin', and we need to get the times changing back to the best music ever written. Maybe we can change the world again to make it easier to bring the good people of the USA back closer to being a United States than a divided one. God knows that trump's ideas just keep making America worse for us. So we not just to resist, but to go back on the offensive by taking back the streets and showung that we still are a force to be delt with in the election booths and in the lines of stores who cater to us and not our grandchildren. It's possible if we want it enough.

I've had breast cancer twice: 2010 and 2020. Both times, on my way to treatment, I'd blast this song. It was my good luck charm, as it was the first 45 RPM single my folks bought me. Nothing lifts you up like "Windy" and the hymn, "How Great Thou Art"!

Who'd have thought that the drummer of the Four Seasons is a music teacher in California . Gary Poulci . Not my teacher, but at a concert they put on at my rinky-dink University in the 1960" i sat sat so close to the front, I could feel the sweat coming off of some of them. They played ALL of their hits up to that point . It was along concert with a 20 minute break, then they fired back up. Concert tickets were $ 5.00 , but the school must have subsidized. A corsage was also $ 5.00 because my Ag fraternity sold some. Our teacher owned a flower shop . One smart $$$ from a social fraternity came over and tried to steal my business at the pre order table. He undercut me 1 $ dollar. I'm no republican, so I gave the guy a corsage free. The social $$$ vanished. Don't mess with someone you don't know. He didn't like that worth a damn. Little did he know, I could have kept doing it.

It was #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for 4 consecutive weeks. Starting the week ending July 1-July 22. "Light My Fire" was #1 for the next 3 consecutive weeks (Jul. 29-Aug. 12). "All You Need Is Love" was #1 for the next week, Aug. 19. For those 8 weeks, the center cut for The Summer of Love in '67, had some of the finest songs in that marvelous '60s era!

Every time I hear this song, I disappear from the present, and transport myself back to when I was 6 years old. On Saturday, July 1st, 1967, my family moved from Jersey City, NJ out to the suburbs of north Jersey. I remember being so excited that day and feeling so free and happy and safe, living in such a “new world”. So whenever I hear Windy on the airwaves or the internet, it reminds me of that time. And it makes me feel free and happy and safe; if only for a few precious minutes ...(certainly not a free, happy, safe world for many others.) Just the experience of a shy, little 6 year old.

My name is Wendy, and I was touring, giving concerts across Italy, with a choir and orchestra in 1997. We had included Windy in our repertoire. One night we were in a lovely restaurant, and I got up to use the facilities. As I approached the table, the entire group sang this to me - in 4-part harmony. I will never forget.
