Not really, these years are more bizarre and kids which are the main source of views like other type of music, if this didnt get many more views from Venom and Baby Reindeer it wouldnt have got them out of nowhere.

Great, great song. Many people just know it because of "Lego Batman" and "Venom 2". Others knew the Aimee Mann version in the Oscar-winner film "Magnolia". But most of people, like me, knew the Three Dog Night version that became a rock classic. But this original recording by his creator, Harry Nilsson, is the best of them all. The telephone busy signal inspired Harry to compose the song, and the monotone keyboard part that opens the theme evocates it.

[@liandren]

I knew it from the John Farnham version.

I recently watched the documentary, ‘who is Harry Nilsson (and why is everybody talking about him)’; I had not realized how incredibly influential and inter-connected he had become in his career. Incredible musician and inspiration. What a legacy!

[@billnyc6658]

When the Beatles made their first tour to USA, reporters asked who their favorite American musician was and John Lennon instantly said "Nilsson". Lennon later produced one of Harry Nisson's albums, but sadly, they were both wasted during the recording.

[@QuinnzeyQ89]

I watched that too! I always knew Nilsson from The Point album he made- a classic!! Then to find out he had all this other incredible music. What a shooting star he was.

The songwriter almost always does it best. This is a perfect example.

[@emersonfloyd9445]

Harry also did Newman best. He would do this song best if someone else wrote it. Unmatched singer.

[@grosnyivan]

I generally dislike covers as I often find them unimaginative and pale imitations. That being said, I think Aimee Mann's version of One with Jon Brion is a great reinterpretation. Also used brilliantly in PT Anderson's Magnolia.

[@hashdealer8822]

I like the Aimee Mann version best. Maybe it's because of the movie that I have a special emotional connection with. However an all time great song.

[@iamhereblossom1588]

Harry Nilsson was such a prolific songwriter, so many songs in pop culture people have heard are written by him. The quality of his songwriting is insane.

[@jessejohanni]

While I might generally agree, there are some things to consider: - You generally hear the songwriters version first, and that becomes the base version that imprints the first impression of the song in your mind. - If you know who the writer is, you might tend to think that his/her version is the "correct" one. So what we need is a blind test with, let's say 100 original versions + covers, and a few 100 people who don't know the songs (or at least don't know who the songwriters are that can listen and judge the different versions!). :)

"No; It's the saddest experience you'll ever know. Yes; It's the saddest experience you'll ever know.' I find this very true in aspects. During much of the peak of my life when I had lovers and money and health, somehow it didn't impress me; I couldn't connect with it, friends, lovers, cities. But I was still moved by sad, sentimental art like this very much; It's always been something I many others appreciate.

ONE by Harry Nilsson One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do. Two can be as bad one; It's the loneliest number since the number one. "No" is the saddest experience you'll ever know. Yes, it's the saddest experience you'll ever know, Because one is the loneliest number you'll ever do. One is the loneliest number that you'll ever know. It's just no good anymore since you went away. Now I spend my time Just making rhymes, yesterday. Because one is the loneliest number you'll ever do. One is the loneliest number that you'll ever know. One is the loneliest number One is the loneliest number One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do. One is the loneliest number much, much worse than two. One is a number divided by two. O-o-o-o-o-one... One is the loneliest number.

Congratulations, I guess. Not becoming addicted to drugs is always good. But then so is experimenting and taking some risks in life. It really depends on who you are and what you want out of this short existence we humans have here on this planet. There is no "one size fits all" answer to what to do with one's life. Or what to do with the rest of the life you do have. Boredom can be good. Although, usually that's after an over excited youth spent taking risks and getting in and out of jams. I would also differentiate between risks worth taking and dangerous, life ending- pointless risks. There's a big difference between smoking pot and shooting heroin. The difference is in your personality.

[@dionmcgee5610]

Nilsson was a song writing phenomenon back in the late 60s'. I was a child and used to watch his musical cartoon 'The Point' once every year. Couldn't wait for it to come around again the next year for almost a decade, I think. Music still holds up today with it's catchy tunes and philosophical musings. Became good friends with the Beatles, especially john and Ringo. Partied hard. Partied too hard. Ringo got sober, Nilsson didn't make it. RIP.
