“Stay” one of my all time favorites, although likely performed by “The Four Seasons” a bit later. Great beach song!
Had the opportunity a few years back to hear Frankie Valli in concert, and “Stay” was well received as was the recognition of M. Williams who penned the song.
Hope all enjoyed a great Thanksgiving! Especially, sandy Sue, wherever you are.
