I love their music. I wish they made music that sounded like this....

I love this song:

Night are Forever Without You

Lying in bed with the radio on
Moonlight falls like rain
Soft summer nights thinking of you
When will I see you again

Soft and low the music moans
I can't stop thinking 'bout you, thinkin' 'bout you

I didn't know it would be so strong
Waiting and wondering about you
I didn't know it would last so long
Nights are forever without you
Nights are forever without you

The curtains still dance with the radio on
The sun'll be coming up soon
But I just can't sleep for thinking of you
Here alone with the moon
(repeat chorus)


What happened to them???

BUMP

Offhand I only know of "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" - that's pretty, even if a bit cheesy (though I love songs like that, so I'm not complaining). [Wink] .

They are awesome, I wrote about a few other songs, on the 70's Rewind. I found a record album with: "Love is the Answer" on it, it is a great song. I highly recommend finding it.

^ Do most of their songs sound relatively similar to "Love to See You"? I'll definitely keep an eye out for some of their other stuff. [Smile]

BTW, I always thought that one has an "upbeat love song that feels like a ballad" vibe. I wouldn't be surprised if it was an influence on many '80s songs like that.

ISIS wonders:

The group split up in 1980.

"England Dan" is Texas-born Dan Seals, who became a country singer in the mid-80's. His brother, Jim Seals, was part of Seals & Crofts in the 70's.

John Ford Colley (his name was spelled with two L's, though the band was named for one L) still performs as a solo act.

Hope this helps! [Smile]
