Mike_G Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 "I'm on my way To the city lights To the pretty face That shines her light on the city nights And I gotta catch a noon train I gotta get there on time Well, it feels so good to know she waits at the end of the line" Sweet City Woman by the Stampeders Another! Probably the most bummer song ever. "No, I can't forget this evening Oh, your face as you we're leaving But I guess that's just the way the story goes You always smile But in your would you sun will show Oh, yes, it shows No, I can't forget tomorrow When I think of all my sorrow When I had you there but then I let you go And now it's only fair that I should let you know What you should know... I can't live..." Without You by Badfinger (it was written by Pete Ham and Tom Evans and has been recorded by over 180 artists)
jwrass Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Can't Live if living is without you? Have no Idea of artist. I'm gonna say like summer of 73-75 I though a One Hit Wonder artist had a hit with that tune. Pretty Lame for Badfinger

I'm gonna say like summer of 73-75 I though a One Hit Wonder artist had a hit with that tune. Pretty Lame for Badfinger Badfinger's version is a bit different than Harry Nilsson's Both of the writers of that song hung themselves, first Pete Ham, then 5 years later his friend Tommy Evans

jwrass Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Geez...... They hung themselves! Bummer If I'm not mistaken Nilsson had a few decent songs in the era. I like the Bad Finger Version, never heard it until today! Maybe I did but don't remember a few things from those day!!! if you know what I mean Mike, Thanks for the vid and turning me on to the Bad Finger version!

lysleder Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 If the world is so wrong Then you can break the mold With one song If the world is so wrong Then you can take it on With one song Nobody..? Oh,well - Here's a little bit more to help out. And they royalty rate all the girls like you And they sell it out to the girls like you To incorporate little girls

A very sad ending for what was a great band, the only surviving member is Joey Moller (the lead guitarist), who still plays shows as Badfinger I think Nilsson's first big hit was Everybody's Talkin' which was the theme from the 1970 movie Midnight Cowboy
chunkypeanutbutter Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Badfinger's 'Come and Get It' was written by Paul McCartney, the one who turned Apple Records onto Badfinger.
