According to Wiki/google the song "The Voice" was released in 1981.
Read what I wrote Brian....read all the words.
Seasons in the Sun is one of the sappiest songs ever...I suppose you were moved to tears by 'Wildfire' too.
Hell no, I never liked "Wildfire".
The biggest reason I liked Baker Street was because of the saxophone. I didn't understand the lyrics at the time, just loved the saxophone.
But as far as the Terry Jacks song, that did haunt me from lyrics like "Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die". Even then I didn't understand the lyrics other than it had sad notes to it and it sang of death. When you are that young and scared with the tone and notes of that song, and you don't know shit, it scared me. The Terry Jacks song wasn't like remembering a song you like. It was like having a nightmare.
