Randy Newman - Living Without You

[denniswilsonfan]

I like the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band version of this song. not taking away anything from Randy

[doctorw2]

sing this song to your girlfriend after a break up she will come back in a heartbeat.

I had this tape and learned the songs (or what I could hear) off it.

this is one of the best songs ever written! The best song writer of all time in my opinion.

[peterzang]

well the album was released in early 72, I know because I bought it, so it couldn't be '72. I'm thinking 1970 then.

[homerbialy]

@peterzang well it is new york, but the year was '69. it was recorded in a local radio station in ny. it did not come from the randy newman live album.

@homerbialy WNEW-FM?

[peterzang]

bitter end '71

[homerbialy]

@peterzang try again....

[PeterZeeke]

loads of ppl cover newmans songs but none can hold a candle to the original. he has such a unique gruff unrefined voice. They just sound fantastic

[brianjcorby]

the man is just a remarkable talent.... such depth of feeling...

[SimonEdward123]

Nilsson's vocal range is what set his version above the rest. The harmonizing at the end of that song is a thing of pure beauty.

[Hoboscouts]

Where did you get this?!?!?!

[homerbialy]

@Hoboscouts I have my ways...

[jeremybiggs]

@homerbialy niiiice

[DebrisBlog]

Simply gorgeous. I also love the NGDB version, but this one is so heartfelt.

[theNifflefoot]

Manfred Mann's version is definite.

[shinesinpines]

Harry Nilsson or die

[Hoboscouts]

@shinesinpines no

[aradiasongbird]

Great song, but my fave version will always be the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band version

[annabelvandasselaer]

OK right then Homerbialy........tell me then where this was recorded....

[homerbialy]

@annabelvandasselaer New York, some time 'round 1969...

[annabelvandasselaer]

I think it is from the LP Live at Bitter End........

[homerbialy]

@annabelvandasselaer You would, but you're wrong!!!

[carygang]

Not from Live at the Bitter End..from WHAT?? Love it.

[mmedistraite]
