Just curious, were you able to fix it and post a clearer video?

This sounds like it would be a great song, but the audio is just awful. Please re-post.

this sounds like i have heard this before what was this the b side too?

[bruceski2133]

i am not crazy about this song, but i am pretty sure it was the flip side to sad songs say so much

[RebelFounderOdogoo]

wasn't it on to be continued to?

[bruceski2133]

no this song was no on that set it only appeared on the flp side of sad songs. as far as i know it was not released by ej in any other form just as many of his flip sides. hope that helps

[RebelFounderOdogoo]

Hmmm not even as a extra when they where rereleasing all his albums on cd's and they all had extra bonus songs? If no hmmm I know I had this song unfortunatly cause of tradgity I lost all of it.

[bruceski2133]

utube demonstrates that there are upwards of a 100 songs or more that have never been made available except on flip sides or single cd compilations. at 1 time ej thought that was making them collectable and thus more valuable too bad tho so many of those song are pretty good but not contained on the compilations such as 2 b continued or rare masters dont knowwh y, if i were doing the compilations this song would not be on them, in fact i would take a few off and trade them for better ones

@bruceski2133 - it was actually released on the Australian cassette version of the "Breaking Hearts" album by Joker Records.

[bruceski2133]

@MilesStauffe i am Sure you are telling the truth however i have never heard of joker records and would hesitate to say that this was an authorized or official release, i could be wrong, but i didnt know such a company was authorized to distribute his material. it surprises me that he would include it on a cassette and not vinyl. it is my opinion thAT He felt it a weaker track than the others thus did not intend it to be concluded.

[MilesStauffe]

@bruceski2133 - I agree, it looks like a bootleg tape (the liner notes are totally incorrect, and typed in a terrible font) but it had the entirety of the BH album plus 'A simple man' - and was very good quality for a bootleg!

[augustojaf]
