John is one of the best singers in the world. His range and quality of voice is amazing. He is also one of the nicest artists around. Had the pleasure of working with him during the late 80s-early 90s at BMG in the US. It's a crime the States didn't appreciate his talent. He, like Daryl Hall, can sing anything. Really appreciates his bandmates. Class act all the way. FTR, Thanks for the vids. Keep em coming.
No John did NOT write this song. Go grab your CD and read the liner notes. It was written by Richard Marx and Phil Buckle. That is why Richard Marx performed this song LIVE with John on television. I have that on video as well.
@mignonhenne It's definitely a single, was the fourth and last from Then Again. If there's a video, though, I've never seen it. There should be though, it's a very beautiful song.

@ FreeTheRocks
Thanks a lot for all your videos of John Farnham.
I love his music for 25 years. Now I´m 42 and he´s one of my absolute favorites.
But: I´ve never seen him live.
Germany is simply too small for such a big one like him.

@Daniela91522 hallo Daniela, I share your meaning, Germany is too small, or to far away, I am fan since 1987

JF definately wrote this song. Noone had any input either. Great song - pity he doesn't still perform this at any of his shows now.

For some reason I didnt like the recorded version of this song. This is a good live performance though.

John wrote this about his boys, and we used it as our wedding song, absolutely amazing song, don't know why it didn't get much airplay back then!!
