I agree with you as to it being one of the most underrated songs of all times....I have always loved it and my appreciation for it has never waned. I still play it every now and then... In fact I posted it on my Facebook page last night. ( newer Facebook page). I will post it every once in a while when I`m listening to it to see if I get a reaction from anyone who remembers or appreciates it but no one has ever reacted to the song which makes me kinda sad because it`s such a beautiful song. I will take it to my grave...lol. I``m 67 yrs old and have had quite a collection since I was 12 yrs old. I just listened to "The Weight" by "The Band" also which was a great song too. Sooooooo many great songs !! They keep me alive !! Well thanks for appreciating the Orpheus song !! And have a great day !!

WolfSky9 As I approach 70 I say the same thing to myself almost every day. I see old movies on TV that I saw first run in the movies and I remember them like it was yesterday; then I see the copyright date of 1972 and I just know it couldn't have been 47 years ago. I used to think that I was blessed because I had a great memory; my friends envied me because I didn't have to study so hard because of this gift of recall...my family never consulted the TV Guide to see what was on TV, they just asked me. Little did I know that a great memory in youth becomes a curse in old age as you can't rid yourself of times, places and especially loves that no longer exist except in my memory. Instead of happiness, these memories have made me sad and depressed. I think sometimes that I'd rather not have them, but then again, I'm not so sure if I really want that.

As strange as this may sound, the music of the 1960s was a big part of being a teenager in the 1980s. Oldies radio stations were popping up everywhere in the United States of America when I was in high school back then. When I worked as a busboy at the Ground Round Restaurant when I was 19 years old back in 1983, there was a group named Fred that performed there; and they would perform this same song by Orpheus. Therefore, even though I don't remember this song as a toddler when it was first released in 1968, I heard it on the radio all the time as a teenager. This was a beautiful song that was loved by both the Baby Boomer Generation and my generation - Generation X. It had that mystical and sentimental way about it.

This beautiful song is one of my all-time favorites! I reached out to Orpheus through their social media account to ask about purchasing some music and to my great delight they offered to send me the files to the music. They said they are happy to provide music files, lyrics, and signed CDs to their fans free of charge. They also asked me if I wanted to be included on their mailing list because they send complimentary Orpheus goodies to their fans. Who does anything like that these days? Thank you, Orpheus!

Discovered these guys when I was in graduate school in the mid 70s and I was just blown away. What harmony, original songs, arrangements, and instrumental backup. I bought every album I could find. Orpheus should have been a major force in recording. They’re so much better/more talented than 95% of the recording artists. Just beautiful music.

danced to this song at a going away party. Problem was party was for me and three days later hellow Fort Jackson.

This song have a melancholy kind of feeling, like remember someone who pass

takes me right back high school .... can't believe how long ago ... and yet only yesterday

Remembering that day in '68 when we bumped elbows at the old Kelley Square Pizza down in Wormtown. Been over 50 years ago and that place' still standing.

Love hootie and the blowfish cover. But, this one just hits different. So ahead of its time!

Me, Myself and Irene brought me here after listening to Hootie and The Blowfish version.

Wow, really feeling the love in all these nostalgic comments!! I'm 32 years old, and was disappointed at first to find that 99% of my favourite music was actually samples and covers. Then I started digging into those classics myself, and I guess this was one stop on the road to the meaning of 'timeless.'

most beautiful song

Played in NYC. Great song spring of '68.

Saw them sing this live at The Ark in Boston around the time of it’s release. Packed, and sweating profusely, their sound was transcendent, and still conjures up that special time of my pre-jaded, teenage self

Worcester Telegram & Gazette, October 28, 2022; Bruce Arnold, co-founder of Orpheus, remembered by Worcester friends and musicians, by Richard Duckett--Bruce Arnold, a founder of the Worcester rock group Orpheus and the writer and lead vocalist of its atmospheric 1968 hit "Can't Find the Time," "had a big heart and tons of passion," recalled his friend and fellow bandmate and Worcesterite Howie Hersh. Arnold was also extremely animated, "like standing next to a ball of fire," Hersh said. "It was not all of a sudden." Arnold has been unwell for a while and died several days ago, but the family wanted to keep matters private before making the announcement. After signing with MGM Records, Orpheus released four quite successful and well-regarded albums between 1968 and '71 and toured the country. Then in 2014, after a gap of about 40 years, Arnold, who lived many years in Marin County in California, returned to Worcester to perform a concert titled "Orpheus: The Homecoming" that was held at Mechanics Hall. Arnold was happy at the prospect, as he related in an interview with the Telegram & Gazette. "I want to see everybody. I want to talk to everybody. I want to hear their Orpheus stories," Arnold said. No other information about Arnold's death was immediately available, but friends and fellow musicians have been reacting with sadness to the death of Arnold, and pointing out his place in Worcester's music history. Local Worcester music veteran Walter Crockett went to junior and high school with Arnold. " 'Can't Find The Time' was the first hit to come out of Worcester in the rock 'n' roll era, and it was a great pop song, much in the genre of the Association, but original," Crockett said. "Can't Find the Time" was the first release from the band's eponymous debut LP in 1968. A love song, it had a mesmerizing flavor and flow to an orchestral arrangement and the refrain of "I can't find the time to tell you." The song had re-releases and various interpretations, including one by Hootie & The Blowfish heard in the movie "Me, Myself and Irene." While together, Orpheus played on the same bill with a number of major acts of the era, including Cream, Janis Joplin, Led Zeppelin, The Who and many others.

The first time I heard this song I didn't hear it again for about a year. It was briefly on WMCA, in nyc, then I went away to school. My sophomore year, a freshman from Boston had the album. We wore it out playing it. Now, in 2019 (about to be 2020 in 2 days) she and I are still friends, and it's still our go-to album from 1971. Thank you, Orpheus.

RIP Bruce❤️🎶🎼🎵🎤🎧

Absolutely love it it just makes me feel good to listen to it.

I keep coming back to this when I need a relaxing uplift!!!

First time I've heard the full version instead of just the radio edit. The long ending give the song a more complete feel.

great song

Entered the US hot 100 on 8/23/1969 and it was criminal that it stalled at #80. This is so classic. With music like this it was great being 15 at the time.
