Badfinger - We're For The Dark

Beautiful song by Pete Ham along with scenery from Wales and quote from Phillip Dunne, author of "How Green Was My Valley". I hope his family and friends enjoy it.

You should reupload this with the 2010 remaster in place of the 1992 remaster. It'd sound a lot better. Such a beautiful song from Pete. The BBC Live version is just as good, even with the cool jam at the end.

@Seej1982 This version is from the Very Best of Badfinger CD, which was remastered by Dan Matovina. I actually prefer this remastered version better. Thanks!

Beautiful image compilation.. someone is an amazing fan to have created this.

All their beautiful songs, and I somehow forgot this one -- maybe the most beautiful! Thank you so much....

@vintagemotelguest Thank you. It was a labor of love, paying tribute to Pete's beautiful lyrics and his roots in Wales.

Theirs is one of the saddest stories of the rock era. RIP Pete & Tom.

What a beautiful and God given talent! It literal pisses me off everytime I have to Hear Pete Ham and (especially) Badfinger's music when after all the frustration, turmoil, pain, and disappointment the boys (especially Pete) went through only to be robbed from their golden and sucessful talent! But I guarantee that today and tomorrow's generation will not only discover, but catapult Ham and Badfinger's music to a new level!

God bless Wales for her country, her people, and their singing!

Pete was a genius, and the band was freakin' awesome. I still play them as though the cds were released yesterday!

Pete sounds like Paul McCartney a bit in this song

My loving respect to the memory of Pete, Tommy & Mike. Your life's work will always resonate within me, with my own music and with my own life. George

Sometimes I weep when I think of how we lost Pete so early. His music is genuinely heartfelt and that's so rare nowadays.
