I have only 20 years, the music fascinated me, she is to listen and if you only have 20 years I would love to have lived during the 70 80 years ago it was very good weather and good music this is horrible today as I listen and it's very sad the younger children listen to bad music and listen to the nonsense look horrible nudity, the world is still bad and people are corrupt, I would like that everything is as beautiful as music and there was never a war. Regards from Serbia
classic song and so many memories as my Dad was a big fan of Al and my uncle Jim briefly knew him in the late 60's as well....whenever I listen to Al's music it reminds me of my childhood...thank you for sharing this wonderful song done live!
This song reminds me of when I was a teenager, and when my dad and my mom were around the same age as I am today. Mom and dad are both gone. Life is to short.
I first heard this incredible song in 1979 on T.W.A. on my way to Paris. Why is it that I can`t get this very MAGICAL song away from me. I listen to it every sunday . AL Stewert thank you indeed.
I never had a train ride.Don,t you just imagine his words so you can see his meanings.Pretty cool.Keep on singing and writting so we can listen.Thank you for posting.
Los verdaderos Días de Radio, en la que no dudaría en ningún momento botar al trasto toda la tecnología moderna en música con su género patético y me quedára con esas que son de museo y que tocaban LP´s con grandes canciones de todos los tiempos. Coleccionista total. Maravilloso.
Find me a ticket on the last train home tonight, to the 80's. Oh how I miss those times. Cassete tapes clogged in car stereos, a VW beetle and a world to conquer, hearing this song...
When I was kid my mom played Al Stewart on our RECORD PLAYER (LOL) all the time and we danced and danced. I was blessed to not only have my mom as a kid but amazing music as well. :)
Good singer, good songwriters and music by the band. The singer also looks nearly exactly the same, sounds good and looks healthy. These are still good soothing songs. It was nice of them to share. Someone was kind to think of sharing this for us.

was never a fan of this song by al ( i seem to remember reading he didnt enjoy it) al had so many great albums past present future the four cbs albums early on modern times and of course year of the cat always a fav....
Music is that thing in which we lock in the experiences of our lives. In the 70s, I was in my twenties. My musical likes have not changed nor have I grown tired of these great songs. In fact, I may be fonder of them now.
I was in kindergarten when Year of the Cat came out. Love Al Stewart. And this song too. Neil Tennant sounds so like him. Maybe part of the reason why I also love Pet Shop Boys.
This song reminds me of being a child, my dad barbequing and the smells of summer breezing in and out of the windows. It was the first song on the Album that would always be playing throughout the house :) I love it! Thanks for sharing :)
I'm so glad i was bought up with this Great music! It has meaning and emotion , Where as in today's popularity in music its all , Lets play this because its loud and cool! They just dont know do they. I'm 13 and i love it!
Wow! Does anyone else think that the alto sax player Dave Camp has an uncanny resemblance to the great alto sax legend David Sanborn (circa 1980s), or is it just me that think he does?
He was big. Lets see in the late 60's and 70's he was revered in his industry for his folk rock tallent. He was best friends with Yoko ono before she met John Lennon and was a roomate of Paul Simon during Simos London years. He has made of >20 albums and was a member of the Alan Parson project. He has worked with every major English musican from Jimmy Page to Sting. And while Yes he is not as Rich as Rod the Bod..He is likly not hurting. Look for a tour. He still palys sold out shows.

@ruby055 They are smaller venues now, but they are awesome---AND affordable! I love to hear his new songs, which are every bit as good as those from his Year of the Cat days.
This song has such a magical, ethereal quality. It makes me realize that some aspects of one's life should be cherished as they come, for they will never return, except in one's remembrances.
Muy buena música del recuerdo la ejecución es como cuando apareció por primera vez por los 77 y el saxofonista es espectacular, muy buena ejecución de instrumentos.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[f] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.[
That is Dave Camp ! Saw Al & co at the Backroom in Austin on this tour . Dave came out into the audience and stood by my seat with the bell of that sax 2 feet away and
belted it out like he does here . One of the best sax players ever !!!
GET BENT NICON! He has wrote great shit more then what you eill ever do with your pissy life.. Just cause your life sucks does not give you the right to piss all over his... So go fuck yourself and go back to your hole before a lot of us kick your ass....
What do you have against Being gay & being Fucking FANTASTIC Musicians Redneck ?
You talk & attitude is NOT Welcome here,,I'm NOT gay,But I have nothing against those who are,but if you have a problem maybe me & my 320 Lbs of Prison Weightlifting can settle it You ASsHole !
@nikonguy102 - you're small, insignificant, jealous and totally irrelevant. Too bad that so many others have your diseased kind of mind I cant abide haters who don't even know why they hate - it just makes them feel "proud" to be part of the fool's crowd they hang with
Boy oh boy... I sure miss the days with my Dad.. The family would go one trips on a weekend and the radio would be on.. Al would come on and me at 7 would say to my father "Turn it up Daddy", before he went to go to the bathroom before getting on the road again... (crying) I want those days back more then ever since he passed away... This song is for him....
Thats really COOL & Touches me Bro,,,Hey,,it makes you thjink of Dad,,we'll da;s not gone Bro,,he's still lurks in songs Thoughts & everything you do,,Peace & God bless you for posting that.

If you have time, click on my name to check my channel and original songs, especially the songs called Soul of a Woman and In the Neighborhood (this one is slow so give it a full listen before judging), thx!!!

My girlffriend broke up with me in 1980, and I was heartbroken. I remembering hearing this beautiful song a few days later and it gave me comfort. I became an Al Stewart fan for life. Thanks Al, you do beautiful stuff...
I remember taking a bus to my friend's house to spend thanksgiving break in massachussetts, it snowed outside and the music was playing on the bus. Must have been 1979 and I was 19 years old and an undegraduate foreign student in the united states.
the first time I heard this song i was 33 yrs old i heard it being played by the radio station on the peir when i was returning from a long war patrol in the Navy 1988 its definately time has passes!
This has always been a smooth song, from the keyboard intro, the sax, 2 al's super laid back vocal. It's just good music to iron ur clothes by.

I remember taking a bus to my friend's house to spend thanksgiving break in massachussetts, it snowed outside and the music was playing on the bus. Must have been 1979 and I was 19 years old and an undegraduate foreign student in the united states.

Al Stewart is fab. I just wish he didn't look and sound so much like Tony Blair. :S

Have you seen him lately? He doesn't look like Blair any more. Still sounds a bit like him though!
