[@geebee6737]

I'm a 50's child so 60's music including this rendition by Ralph McTell still very dear to me. Homelessness saddens me but even those with one can suffer social isolation , old age and disability can mean loneliness for many who's friends and family fail to see their cries for help. Well done on raising peoples awareness of others silent suffering 👏

Love this song 🎶 & thanks DJ 😢👍

[@SalarianUnlimited]

I love this song - relevant in 1969 when it was first written - sad that it retains that same relevance today - the stories of the forgotten who remain invisible to most of society set to a beautiful but mournful melodic tune. Back in the day I could play and sing this - neither playing ability or voice up to the mark today sadly. Thanks Darren and to Ralph for writing it - bless you both.
