It was terrible reading why this talented young lady had been absent from public life for so long. I certainly hope things are a lot better for her now, and she can return to doing what she does best, producing great songs like this one.


it's terrible that these things happen - yes same. Hope life is good for her from now (she owes us nothing but we will never turn away a good tune)

So, I was just deciding what track from the Radcliffe Folk show to play

You swung it for me
Good news - the fellow still sounds brilliant
Bad news - If it was a tough question in 1970, it's tougher now


Now you’ve done it! I hadn’t heard this song for a while and then I find a live version. My favourite Cat Stevens song, but it is an acquired taste and needs a few listens (like most great songs). I doubt many of you have 18 mins to listen to a song so this is a bit self indulgent, but thanks for inspiring me to find it. On my youtube favourites list now :thumbsup:

Some songs grow on you slowly, others you know from the first few chords and words that you're going to love it, and that's how it was for me with this classic from Chicago. I first heard it back in 1984 on the Jonathan King :eek: show Entertainment USA, which, incidentally, was a very good program.

Oh you crack on. I'm not sure it is overly self-indulgent. the point of the thread is to post the one you enjoyed the most and it brings interest to all of us - My suspicion is that my post later will be longer than 18 minutes as it goes

Cat Stevens ? It was one of my life ambitions to see him in concert, I achieved that when Island celebrated their 50th anniversary at Shepherds Bush Empire, (my favoruite venue). He was introduced onto the stage by Bono, who was completely overwhelmed by the occasion. Kennedy moments................
