@farmer2win Im searching for another hit recorded by Geoff Hughes named you are my island, awesome tune,but can't seem to find it..plz help if you can,haven't heard this song in ages thank you
Sure, I remember the song quite well. I saw Hughes play it live and up close at a bar near Dundas and Roncesvales in Toronto shortly after it was released. Good times back then, lots of breaking bands in the local bar scene.
OMGs! Thanks! Haven't heard this one since the fall of '81! A strange tune but hauntingly quite memorable. I remember it cracking the top 10 in Canada.
YESSS!!!! I thought I lost this song forever. Thank you thank you THANK YOU YouTube! I remebered this song from when I was 12 . . . and it was played on a Canadian station I got reception on in Cleveland a lot. Lost classics were found en masse tonight.
I played guitar and co produce the album, My brother Michel played bass on the album too. Souvenirs...We had fun doing it too. Goeff was and i'm shure is still is a great guy and i miss him. Wish i could get in touch with him. Somebody know's where he is?
thanks for posting this! been looking it for a long time. if not for youtube, this would have been lost forever, never played on the radio since 1981.
Hey Willrocks58, if Geoff truly is your dad, i'd love to get in touch with him - i'm an old friend from when he recorded that song... imagine my surprise in finding all this on the web some 30 years later...!
I have asked so many people if the remember this song and nobody did..but I KNOW they've heard it cuz it was huge hit when it came out.
Thanks for posting.

Where has the time gone?

I still have a copy of this album. Sometimes I wonder why I bought it, however I enjoyed it when I was 16. Who knew.

Thanks for posting this. I hadn't heard it for quite a few years. It was cool to hear it again. It's one of those sort of "haunting" songs!
