I grew up with Bread, it was popular when I was young. I later learned that "Everything I Own" was a song about his father who had died. As I lost my own father 30 years ago, this song really resonates with me. But truthfully, I love everything by Bread!

[@mindyjuiliano222]

My mother just passed away on November 11 so I heard this song with new ears. Beautiful.

[@ernestooliveira8341]

Best song. 2024 from Brazil

[@mass4552]

Two songs that were played often while growing up. I was lucky to be alive at that time.

[@DanoSeer]

The greatest era in folk music and songwriting.

[@oleeb]

Bread wrote and recorded some of the most beautiful love songs ever. These are probably their best two.

[@SnipeSpine]

While I think songs are open to interpretation, it was revealed that “Everything I own” wasn’t written as a traditional love song. It’s actually a song dedicated to his Father after he passed away. I didn’t realize this until I researched it myself. Coincidentally enough, it was one of the songs my dad and I would listen to together when I was growing up. Now that he’s passed, this song just hits that much more closer to the heart. It’s a beautiful song and even more beautiful when you put yourself in the shoes of a son crying and longing for a loved father that has passed.

[@gotrhythm1]

This is a love song written to his late father.

[@MorenikejiTaiwo]

so heartfelt.❤️ Reminds me of in the living years by Mike and Mechanics

[@MorenikejiTaiwo]

Hi sweet family. I didn’t mean to be away for this long. It’s just been a couple of things going on behind the scenes. Hoping things get sorted out soon and I can get back to being here more often. Till then, your girl is thankful for the love and support.🙏🥰

Bread has a lot of beautiful songs . So happy I was a teen in those years. These are the kind of songs we listened to every day. After 50 years I still know the lyrics by heart because we played and replayed Bread's songs over and over..Greetings from Belgium.

[@FUBAR1986]

Yeah, you’re right about that man I still remember every lyric just don’t make music like this anymore. Such a shame for this generation.

[@arwen450]

@@FUBAR1986 Well, I have to say that in Flanders we still have some new singers or bands who sing poetic songs. Brel (already passed away), Stromae, Breg and Tamino who is Belgian with Egyptian roots are famous and have beautiful songs. If you listen to Tamino's song Habibi ( which means : my darling). I think you might like it, But it is true , our generation had the best music in the 70s. My daughter and grandsons, 13 and 15 years old do listen to CCR, Bread, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd and so on. So, the 70s music will never die. Greetings from Flanders in Belgium. Carine (nickname Arwen)

Two of the most beautiful songs ever written

[@bobbyc3895]

In high school we had a literature teacher who would use songs like "If" and "Time in a Bottle" (Jim Croce) to teach us about "modern poetry". Made it easier to connect to the concept that poetry wasn't just rhyming words.

[@arwen450]

Our English teacher used " Vincent" and American Pie " to learn us the meaning of the song . I live in Flanders so I speak Dutch and English was our third language we learned when we were 13 yo. Bread was one of my favorite groups. I also love the song " time in a bottle"

[@saintsefo4763]

@@arwen450 Ahhh, 'Vincent'.. still a favourite and one I listen to frequently. Such a beautifully sad song about the great Van Gogh.

[@arwen450]

@@saintsefo4763 yes!! I was 13 when I had my first English lessons. Our teacher in second grade wanted us to name a song to listen to in class and explain the meaning to us and I wrote down two songs : I wish you were here (P. Floyd) , American Pie and Vincent. I listened to English and American singers / bands since I was 12 and understood the lyrics but I had no idea that the song was about Van Gogh. Yesterday there was a special about the American Pie album + a concert of 1972 from Don MLean on the BBC . I recorded it. He had such a smooth and soft way of singing his songs. Love his voice a lot . . Greetings from a 64 yo woman from East-Flanders in Belgium. We were lucky to grow up with the late '60's and the '70s .I still have my American Pie album 😊

One thing this world is missing is the Love between a Father and a Son, to not understand this is very sad.... that connection is so important

[@stevekaufmann4088]

About 30 years ago performers dropped the use of so much instrumentals and full orchestra's in their performances. The richness it add's plus the ability's for singers to annunciate back then made music so much better... as you go through band after band of the 70's that were incredible, just when you think you have heard it all there are countless more.
