I understand, Stilly. This thread is for songs people remember, however, not search engine searches. I'm sure I will pick one you do remember fairly soon.

Al Stewart's music possesses many of the virtues of classical music. It's tuneful, complex, highly intelligent, full of cultural and historical aspects, often orchestral, extremely sophisticated stuff, right from the earliest recordings up to the present day. In fact, I'd say he carved out a specific niche all his own in songwriting that one one else has ever rivalled or even approached. One could say the same of many other artists...only a different niche, that's all.

At the specific thing he does, Al Stewart is the best.
