total legend , I wish people were writting songs this way still . Gerry was all about the music , so much so he refused to play gigs to promote his work BECAUSE HE DIDNT WANT TO , total total legend !
Now that is what I call a classic tune. Mr Rafferty had more talent in his left bollock than most, so called musicians could ever dream to posses. R.I.P Gerry, you are sorely missed.
Man, great nostalgia - along with "Baker Street" - great tracks - thanks Gerry R.I.P. dude. These are the sort of tracks that take me back - remember where I was all that time ago.
Of all the tunes he ever recorded, this is the one his full glory was in full display. I liked the dramatic intencity of that hook. Yes, I liked this tune better than "Baker Street". I'm OK with that. We miss you, Mr. Rafferty!
What do all of you think...should Gerry be bestowed Knighthood? A Gem of Scotland should never be forgotten...but be honored for all time eternal! If I knew where he was laid to rest, I'd bring a huge bundle of flowers, and pray thanks and love over his grave. Today...he's still my anchor....in a calm harbor, with raging seas loomin nearby. He gave me comfort....he gave me hope...he reminded me to smile! GOD BLESS SCOTLAND!
@EricBBrandon1 Why the need for chauvinism? Do you need some kind of reflected glory? Sorry, but it was growing up in Scottish society that damaged and eventually killed Gerry Rafferty. And I am not anti-Scottish, I actually come from Paisley, Gerry's home town. If he had been born into a culture where people were actually sane and happy he could have had one of the greatest careers of all time - and he would almost certainly still be alive.
i was brought up on his music along side many other 60's/70's solo artists and bands. my parents were born in the 50's u c. so Gerry Rafferty = legend in my eyes.
Did Raphael Ravenscroft play the sax on it, just like he did on 'Baker Street'? Somebody let me know. God bless ya, for your efforts! Have a blessed week!
Gerry holds his Own key to the World and He has Given us this with his Songs that we can all share and Love over the years after the Loss of a Great talent....R.I.P. Thanks Gerry.....
Miss you so Gerry ,you played & sang some of the best and most under rated music ever.Now you're singing with the Angels and the music is all the sweeter for you being there! ♥ msstevie ♥
Have loved this song since I was a young lad. I still have memories of listening to this song while riding in the back seat, heading home from Grandma's house after Christmas or some other holiday.
Pure pop music; great instrumentation; truly a masterpiece of music and underrated and overlooked. I like this song even better than Baker Street. Thanks Gerry for your great music that will live on in your memory!
True art in music form is done in the RAW !! no B.S. like most of todays music layered, redone, canned, and mixed to death so much so that you can not even understand the words!! but gerry a TRUE Artist along with his band!! ohh for the days of true art!!
Mreggy,you hate Jocks,thats because you are a prick,viva Scotland,dont ever come to Glasgow,you will go home in a bag,you tosser.
