Tunes like this, from years gone by, just make my heart sing. They take me right back to the days back then, when everything seemed easier, simpler and just so more innocent. This song is etched on my brain, and it moves me still today.
This one record from Barry Biggs is worth more than entire back/future catalogue of Coldplay/U2/insert any shite group from last 25 years. Call him Mr Blobby, mock his clothes but he made this record in the golden age of music before the business was totally over overrun with charlatans and high priests of self serving fraudulency. This is pure pop, all we have now is pap dressed in fashionable clothes.
No miming here, and sounds very like the record. This guy REALLY CAN SING, no gadgetry on this performance. Shame about the suit! Nice song though, brings back memories, I was in my 1st year at high school when this came out.

@flaxonx3 I agree entirely with your sentiments. Music before 77 had an honesty lacking thereafter - for me anyway.
