I know Diamond has plenty of detractors (including humorist Dave Barry), but I will never stop loving this song. I vaguely recall this was used in the film "An American Tail."
@goofdick Supposedly he saw the movie, loved it and wanted to write a song about it (which would also benefit him because of the film's popularity). He actually paid Speilberg for the right to do a song about ET. Companies always pay movie makers for cross promotional tie ins (like 711 and their movie slurpee cups), but I've never heard of an individual artist ever doing it before (or since). And I've never seen this song on any of his compilation albums. Maybe he still has to pay royalties?
Love it !! I love how he sort of messes up a couple of parts. HE SINGS IT LIVE. This is genuine and like one of the best videos of live performance singing I have ever seen. I respect and love this guy. GOD BLESS HIM
wish someone would turn on there heart light for me .....im on bad times and need a good friend....not like youtube will get me one.... im just saying behind my phony smile :)
A friend is someone you need!! but now he has to go away turn on your heartlights!! let shine !! Don't wake me up to soon I want to take a ride across the moon!! everyone needs a place ... and home is the most excellent place of all!!!
