I listened to Gilbert O'Sullivan's beautiful song "Claire" a few days ago and it's still in my head. It got me thinking about a couple of his other hits. "Alone Again Naturally" is a great song, but has to be the darkest, bleakest song ever sung. When a song begins with a man just minutes away from committing suicideby leaping from a tower and then becomes more depressing afterward, you know it's a downer.
On the other hand "Get Down" was one of the upbeat hits of the 70s that deserves a lot more air time.
Yea Kly, "Alone Again Naturally" tho a very good song IS quite a downer. I heard it just the other day.
Oh, and while we are talking songs we just heard, what about "Rock On" by David Essex? I love that song.
