I was fortunate to see this very group in Las Vegas in the early 1960's at the Sands Hotel where a friend of mine was the Pit Boss. Bill Kenny the 1st tenor by far had one of the purest tenor voices of all time. if you note when he hits the high notes C above High C he does not use a falsetto like many singers especially tenors or other singers did like I had to do as baritone in order to reach the high notes nor did he slide up the scale to them he simply had the ability to reach right up and just nail them every time.
The rest of the group were also very good and they had a blend like no other in those early days when black quartettes were coming along and aren't we glad they did come along for all to enjoy..thanks

If I Didn't Care
The Ink Spots Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I didn't care, would I feel this way?
If this isn't love then why do I thrill?
And what makes my head go 'round and 'round
While my heart stands still?
If I didn't care, would it be the same?
Would my every prayer begin and end with just your name?
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?
If I didn't care
Honey child, more than words can say
If I didn't care
Would I feel this way?
Darlin' if this isn't love
Then why do I thrill so much?
And what is it that makes my head go 'round and 'round
While my heart just stands still so much?
If I didn't care would it be the same?
Would my every prayer begin and end with just your name?
And would I be sure that this is love beyond compare?
Would all this be true if I didn't care for you?
The lyrics to The Ink Spots' song, If I Didn't Care, explore the intense emotions that come with falling in love. The singer asks themselves if their feelings would be the same if they did not care as deeply for their loved one. They question the nature of their own feelings, wondering if it could really be love, what causes the thrill they feel, and why their head is spinning while their heart remains still.
The chorus in particular highlights these emotions, asking if everything they feel and experience would still be true if they didn't care for their loved one. The repetition of the phrase "if I didn't care" suggests that the singer is grappling with these intense emotions and attempting to understand what they mean. Ultimately, the lyrics suggest that love is a complex and ineffable emotion that can bring both joy and confusion to those who experience it.
Overall, If I Didn't Care is a poignant and emotional exploration of the depths of love and the intense emotional experiences it can bring.

If I didn't care
More than words can say
If I didn't care
Would I feel this way
If this isn't love, then why do I thrill
And what makes my head
Go 'round and 'round
While my heart stands still
If I didn't care
Would it be the same
Would my every prayer
Begin and end with just your name
And would I be sure that this is love
Beyond compare
Would all this be true
If I didn't care for you
If I didn't care, honey child
More than words can say
If I didn't care, baby
Would I feel this way
Darlin', if this isn’t love
Then why do I thrill so much
What is it that makes my head
Go 'round and 'round
While my heart just stands still so much
If I didn't care
Would it be the same
Would my every prayer
Begin and end with just your name
And would I be sure that this
Is love beyond compare
Would all this be true
If I didn't care for you

Mr. Dufresne, describe...
...the confrontation you had with your wife the night she was murdered.
It was very bitter.
She said she was glad I knew, that she hated all the sneaking around.
And she said that she wanted a divorce in Reno.
- What was your response? - I told her I would not grant one.
"I'll see you in hell before I see you in Reno."
Those were your words, according to your neighbors.
If they say so.
I really don't remember. I was upset.
What happened after you argued with your wife?
She packed a bag.
She packed a bag to go and stay with Mr. Quentin.
Glenn Quentin, golf pro at the Snowden Hills Country Club...
...whom you had discovered was your wife's lover.
Did you follow her?
I went to a few bars first.
Later, I drove to his house to confront them. They weren't home.
I parked in the turnout...
...and waited.
With what intention?
I'm not sure.
I was confused...
...drunk.
I think...
...mostly I wanted to scare them.
When they arrived, you went up to the house and murdered them.
I was sobering up.
I got back in the car and I drove home to sleep it off.
Along the way, I threw my gun into the Royal River.
I've been very clear on this point.
I get hazy where the cleaning woman shows up the following morning...
...and finds your wife in bed with her lover...
...riddled with.38-caliber bullets.
Does that strike you as a fantastic coincidence, or is it just me?
Yes, it does.
Yet you still maintain you threw your gun into the river...
...before the murders took place.
That's very convenient.
It's the truth.
The police dragged that river for three days, and nary a gun was found...
...so no comparison could be made between your gun and the bullets...
...taken from the bloodstained corpses of the victims.
And that also...
...is very convenient. Isn't it, Mr. Dufresne?
Since I am innocent of this crime...
...I find it decidedly inconvenient that the gun was never found.
Ladies and gentlemen, you've heard all the evidence.
We have the accused at the scene of the crime. We have footprints.
Bullets on the ground bearing his fingerprints.
A broken bourbon bottle, likewise with fingerprints.
And most of all...
...we have a beautiful young woman and her lover...
...lying dead in each other's arms.
They had sinned.
But was their crime so great...
...as to merit a death sentence?
While you think about that...
...think about this:
A revolver holds six bullets, not eight.
I submit that this was not a hot-blooded crime of passion.
That at least could be understood, if not condoned.
No.
This was revenge...
...of a much more brutal, cold-blooded nature. Consider this:
Four bullets per victim.
Not six shots fired, but eight.
That means that he fired the gun empty...
...and then stopped to reload...
...so that he could shoot each of them again.
An extra bullet per lover...
...right in the head.
You strike me as a particularly icy and remorseless man, Mr. Dufresne.
It chills my blood just to look at you.
By the power vested in me by the state of Maine...
...I hereby order you to serve two life sentences back-to-back...
...one for each of your victims. So be it!
