I get teary eyed listening to this song..

[@alistairmcelwee7467]

So this song was written for Clair Mills, the 3yo daughter of Gordon Mills, O’Sullivan’s producer for whom O’Sullivan would sometimes babysit. Sadly, producer Mills disputed song rights to “Clair”, and this plus matters relating to his producing of O’Sullivan led to a lawsuit - which Mills lost entirely. Meaning Mills lost quite a bit of money over it. So despite the song having been written with the best of intentions, things were not always so rosy with its later circumstances. Still, once Clair Mills was an adult, she apparently did not hold the unpleasantness against O’Sullivan and came, publicly, to at least one of his concerts where he acknowledged her to the audience. A gorgeous song. I remember it from the early ‘70s and then the famous legal case plus all the nasty gossip surrounding it. In the end though, I think it was written with the best of intentions and expressed great affinity for a human just starting out, entirely appropriately.

I enjoyed this song so much when I was a wee lad. I completely forgot about it, but from the first notes of his beautiful voice it all came back to me. And now pushing 60 I love it even more. I just happened upon it, and instantly remembered it, and remembered enjoying it so much. Gilbert O'Sullivan was and is an amazing artist. Between him and Paul McCartney I am wondering whether the gifts of rhyme, melody, and lyrics align best among the Irish. This is a song that captures how a man--be he father or uncle--falls in love with a little girl, and can't help but indulge her, because she is so cute, and is pure joy in his eyes and heart, and he feels so alive, as if his whole world now is doting on this little girl.

If you call that inappropriate, so condemn motherhood the same way--hence I call that stupor a torpor.

Gilbert O’Sullivan is so underrated - this song of his my favorite - Alone Again Naturally is special also. I can’t believe 265 thumbs down, they must be tone deaf. Don’t read anything into the “ I don’t care what people say you’re more than a child “ - Just accept this as a beautiful song about God’s most precious gift - A Young Child. And like many have stated, Please bring back music like this - Most “ So called “ music since 1990 doesn’t compare to anything before 1990.
