I found Bread before I found Led Zeppelin... I had their complete collection of LPs...vinyl...black gold...and I was only 11... I wore out the discs and my needle, too. What an unbelievable collection of talent. I got to see them in 1976 and am very thankful for that. I just wish they had stayed together longer. Thank you, Bread.

Thanks for the comments - you were lucky to see them in 1976 - I didn't get to see them until 1996!

I remember Jimmy setting at the piano at a friend's house singing this for them. We were doing a demo out there at the studio . And i almost cried . I always do when i think and miss my buddy James A Griffin.

wow how do professional ^^usicians do that? to be able to take a song and tweak the song a little so it fits their voice without ruining the ^^elody of the song? I LOVE His take on it and his version. I always wondered how a guy would sound like if they were to sing this beautiful song fro^^ karen. I wanna learn how to do that.

@brian6078 when you say 'this song' --where is it to listen to?

[brian6078]

@headacherack Do you know who sings this song from 1971.I have a U.K. Plexium record.The record only states the writers name but does not say who sings it.I know it is not Karen Carpenter or Shirley Bassey.It has only acc guitar plucking and a female singer.She whispers some of the lines.I heard this version just before Karen Carpenters rendition.
