Is it true that this song was written for her.

[JaSamFan4Ever]

That's my understanding - that this song was written for GH when she had been kidnapped and presumed dead a long time ago.

What a pleasure to watch this again - especially with the crap we're having to endure on GH now! She has always had the maturity to play this character with such depth and insight. She is truly human, and I have been incensed on other message boards, listening to people say Luke should stay with Tracy, and he is too old for Laura now, and she deserves someone better. I REFUSE to accept that they will never be together again! I still want them riding off into the sunset together!!!

General Hospital's Dr Steve Hardy (John Beradino 1917-1996) was a major league player from 1939 to 1953 (except for three years of military service during World War II from 1942 to 1945). He played second base and shortstop for the St. Louis Browns, Cleveland Indians, and Pittsburgh Pirates, winning the World Series with the Indians in 1948. He retired from MLB in 1952

The "good ol days" of General Hospital. Nothing as great as the 80's !

[littlesugarlump]

@JaSamFan4Ever This is incorrect. Christopher Cross wrote this song about a friend of his who died at a young age. It was his way of coping with the grief. He said that Laura wouldn't have wanted them to be sad. Jill Phelps was music director [I believe still at the time] and brought it over for the '83 reunion. It is, however, a perfect song for that that story.

my fav duo....ty for the post love it !

[officialmelpeachey]

Yes when she sign to return for 2 months in later 1983 it was written for the show. she came back to get Luke out of the show. they would play it when Luke felt she was close but she couldn't be she was dead but she was really behind a tree or behind something watching him cause if she went to him the cassdines would kill him. But they finally reunited on very spot they were married. after six weeks of teasing us with having Luke and Laura almost find each other they did.

Damn Girl!  you got old on me!

It is so sad that GH just could not or would not write good storylines for a strong Laura Spencer. They always wanted her to play the victim/damsel in distress. GH really lost out on the whole grand dame thing other soaps had. Laura would have fitted that bill perfectly. Would not even mind her coming back married to Scotty. Both actors are phenomenal anyway and the interactions with Luke and Tracy would be electric.
