As far as I know, it was not. It is a morbid song about a beautiful young blonde dying of mysterious causes. Hints are dropped it may have been complications from an automobile accident as one line, early in the song states- she wrecked the car. The song is full- jaw dropping tragic. I honesty don"t know why they allow songs like that on the main line radios. it is very depressing. back in the real Depression, songs with obviously depressive plot lines were simply not played on the radio and even Love Me Forever ( Grace Lamour fame) was very controversial as it hints at a suicide pact).
Its about a woman suffering from a terminal disease but not telling her husband.
How time is so short when spending it with someone you love so much You keep the memories
Yes, though he was not the first to record the song Bobby Goldsboro did record a version of "little green apples". OC Smith's version is more famous.
Summer (The First Time) by Bobby Goldsboro
Not many, it is a sad and morbid song about the death of a young woman. One adds, as with many songs of related type- an equivocal or (maybe she"s okay but with another guy) type of ending - a mere added verse or two could have redeemed the morbid angles, but no go. Bobby Goldsboro was the only (hit) recording of this tragic song- as contrasted with more flippant treatments such as ( The way you look tonight) which COULD be necrophilia, but not necessarily.
Michel Legrand wrote most of the compositions for the movie "Summer of '42"around 1970-71, and the theme is the same music that underlies the song "The Summer Knows".
Guitar and drums are the most common instruments that were used in the song Honey Honey.

I have heard ( Honey) on old WCBS countdowns. Maybe they try to avoid it as it is an unavoidable tragic and morbid song.

The song is about the untimely death of a Woman, evidentally the wife or paramour of the narrator. She was obviously, a blonde. The only reference to a dog in the song was one line that she ( the girl) Surprised me with a Puppy, kept me up all Christmas Eve, two years ago!) The dog is not named or discussed beyond that.
