Can’t hear this without at least one tear falling! In 1976 I was 22 and still had a chance at a happy life. A few years later I knowingly married the woman who would destroy my life. Meanwhile I sent the right one away. I had the power to change all of this. My last 40 years have been hell. When you know something is wrong, please have the strength to walk away!!!!

We're paddling in the same creek. I got sick and couldn't work after putting in 6-7 days a week, OT for nearly 3 decades. She left for another guy. I lost 65 lbs, not because of a diet, but because I couldn't work, earn, or go shopping. I was starving. No one seemed interested in my wellbeing except CHRIST. I didn't want to burden my children just starting out on their own lives. I kept it from them. I never recovered from my illness, but she and Mr. right went their own way. She started to come around when my daughter finally gave birth, and the kids wanted to disown her. I told them it was me, not you she did it to, and she was still your mother(Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother). I told them you don't have to have a relationship with her if you don't want, but no cruelty or hatred was acceptable. My son tolerates her, but doesn't want to have anything to do with her outside that. My daughter accepts that she is who she is and keeps arms length, doesn't share much. I helped my daughter raise her daughter so she could work without hiring a babysitter, as my disability came through. I found out I was blessed to have things go the way they did, another shot at being a "father" to a little girl I love with my whole heart and soul. It's a great blessing. Hang in there. GOD has a plan, and it would seem you passed the test. BTW, my granddaughter shocked us all one day when she was about 7 by saying what a grump Nonny was, and she didn't like her. I understood. She is very prescient.

@@demah8655 at 68 1/2 and poor health, love has passed me bye forever. All I had to do was get an annulment. I let the one I really loved get away. I have only myself to blame.

So good. This song is epic to my life. I married my high school sweetheart august of 1975 and a week later left for USAF basic training. The morning of our physical test course we had to march six miles in the dark by flashlight to the site. This song played in my head that entire march from the moment my wedding ring contacted my metal bedpost in the very same key that this incredible melody begins with. I will never forget that day and how this song kept my new wife close in my heart from thousands of miles away. We’ve been married now for forty seven years and still going strong.

I don’t know what it is about America but any time I hear their music it instantly sends me back to the 70’s. And those of us from that era KNOW! All to well how much music was being created back then it was friggen non stop ( oh! Real music by the way) yet there’s something about their music hmmmmm.

The synthesizing bowed strings(violin) at the midpoint of the song, in my opinion elevates and defines the piece.

vraiment très émouvant

Goosebumps every time❤️

I love LOVE HIS VOICE!!!!! 😌💋

What I like BEST from AMERICA especially this sensitive track are the harmonies of the guitar player of Dewey Bunnell and Dan Peek. Pleasant and gentile.

I love these guys and this is my favorite song they sing!

Indeed, for all their top 10 hits - and they were all great songs - somehow this one only went top 20 or so. But this is the one I can listen to time and again

Very great song of the year 1975 from this unique band..probably the best song they've done everytime...

Great!!!!

Beautiful song. Makes me want to compose a new song on the piano to sing, just starting with a chord progression. I usually add the chords afterwards, but this song inspires me with it's amazing full simplicity. The piano, guitar, drum rhythms, bass, and cello are all that's needed. Even just the piano by itself. Thank you, Anerica. I think I'll compose one tonight. Of course, I won't be borrowing any melodic lines, or chord arrangement like Janet Jackson did. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

Reminds me of driving my Cherokee on the beach of Cape Hatteras NC with all my surf rods on the roof...

Very nice performance , great song , great writer .

Music like this: makes me feel i'm living:goosebumps,thanks.

I certainly put America as one of the best band in my top 5. Though havent seen them in concert here in Manila. Boy looking forward 😊

I miss these days cruising downtown.. Tom Werts I haven't forgotten my friends..

So excited to see this band in two weeks here in DC. I’ve wanted to see them since the 70’s. Never had the opportunity until now.

Loved this song feel sad, lonely, but great, it’s a wonderful song, everything is alright. ❤

I have the live album. Thank you daisy jane
