This is what you call TALENT folks! No fancy synthesizers or sampling going on here. This is just a beautiful song being sung by a great artist with a gorgeous voice.

This song was one of the great 'sleeper' hits of pop music. Recorded as an album track in 1971 it was 'discovered' by an American lady in 1975 and went on to become only one of thirty singles to sell over twelve million copies. Roger Whittaker will 'God willing' celebrate his 86th birthday next month (March 2022) A great talent who has had hits in almost every country in the world at one time or another. Many thanks for posting.

I had the opportunity to meet Roger in the early 1980s when he came to Maine to open the new concert hall in Bangor ... we had a great chat about his home country of Nigeria. I also have good memories of how that country took us in when we were evacuating from Ethiopia when Hallie Sallasie was dethroned ... God bless those warm people of Kenya. Later, in the late 90's, I saw Roger again in Asheville, North Carolina and we renewed our old relationship. Let's all remember we had some time with Roger ... and sing along with the Old East African Railroad and Harbor. Ken Jones ... oh, I am 91 years old andwouldd love to hear from you
