    One of the best and most emotional song of my teen years...He still sounds fantastic and this song still makes me tear up! The longer version with the piano at the beginning and the end is incredible!! Definately on my playlist!

    after all these years he can still hit that high note.
    I remember listening to this in my room back in the seventies at night cool summer breeze blowing through my window and my whole life ahead of me.
    it was beautiful then and it's beautiful now.
    Moments like this make me really appreciate the technology we have
