The song (and actually the album it comes from) was backuped by only saxophone, piano, electric guitar, bass drum and a symphony orchestra. The songwriter Frank Musker was a co-worker of Air Supply. What's more, it was recorded on John's 1985 album "Dreamland Express", in which he co-worked with Stevie Wonder - each clue suggests that it's a pop song from a pop album. So I quite doubt whether it should be here. A great song anyway. Jason in China |
