    Whichever one is singing, the very reason Dr. Hook touches so many of us is because you can hear the heart and true emotion in their voices. They don't have the classic idea of a "pretty" voices but the feelings that their voices have and bring out in each of us is nothing short of magic.

      I'd never heard of Dr. Hook but I encountered this song through the film Who is Harry Kellerman and Why Is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me? It's really stuck in my head and I've listened to it innumerable times. I especially love the part where they sing: "This is the tough cold city here..."

    🥀Beautiful Song amazing lyrics, vocals music and of a broken man in a bad way. Sometimes in life we get to a point where everything is wrong about our lives then we have to let go of the obstacles in our lives. I love this song & it's on 1 of my album I bought in the 70s it's priceless. 🥀☝️🥀

    @dyonus I think it was Dennis on the lead vocal on this. Ray sang the backup, notably on the chorus. Dennis has more soulful voice and it can be heard clearly here. Ray voice has more country feel that you can hear clearly in the chorus.
