Terry Jacks - Seasons In The Sun • TopPop

[@khalidchaudhry6754]

This song was about a Soldier in WW1 that lay dying and thought about his life and relationships. Who is listening to this in October 2024?

[@merchy3054]

I'm here Mike Nicholson from Westside of Modesto CA miss those days

[@SpiritofaGrandmother]

No it wasn't. It was written by a French composer and translated to English. It was a dying man saying goodbye to his friend ,a priest

[@WasseemNagaty]

​​@@SpiritofaGrandmother, I heard it was written for a cheating friend who cheated on his friend (the writer) with his gf/wife. Either way, it's a powerful message/reminder

[@cherrybullet1]

Takes me back to the mid 70's,a 10 year old kid walking down the country road in the hot summer sun ,going to meet my buddies to swim in the river...I miss the innocence of those times.

[@egleprocuta]

It takes me back to my tweens too. "The stars we could reach ..." I miss the innocence too.

[@chrisseburn7280]

I cry every time I hear this. Best of times and the worst of times you never stop remembering how it used to be.

As an old man now I still like this song as much as a young boy when I first heard it in the 1970's as a teenager on my AM/FM transitory radio. A very memorable & heartfelt tune.

[@thepuzzledgoddess]

My dad played this and other songs to me when he knew he was dying. I have a whole playlist because he didn’t know how to tell me, a five year old , his daughter. 💔I’ve been so ill for a year. I’ve been praying that he comes to get me. I had a dream last night. He opened a glass door and looked at me and held the door, and I walked in and he walked outside. I hope it’s a sign that he’s coming. I miss him so much. I can’t wait to see you again. Dad 🙏🏼💜

[@rogerdetrick685]

I love you goddess, don't leave me

[@wadewaldron4035]

This is a great song....until you loose a mate (loved one). It makes me want to cry. My wife Karen was 5 years older then I was before she died. I greatly miss her. We met on a blind date June 30th 1989. It was set up through a mutual friend and their spouse. Karen and I had 2 girls and they last count had 5 children. We got married March 14th 1991, first child born June 4th 1992 2nd born February 16 1995. Last count we have 5 grandchildren.

[@georgeclarke1183]

one of my best friends passed away aged only 59 wish they had played this at his funeral

[@UncompressedWAVmusic]

I broke up with my girlfriend one night in 1974 the same night I first heard this song immediately. After leaving her house it comes on the car radio. I was mesmerized by this song and it's heartfelt eternal love and blessings for life and loves gone by.

[@myopiniononly845]

70's was the best of music never will be duplicated

As a teen in the 70s, my parents gave me a suitcase record player and 45s. This is the first song I played, and I still love it!

[@crazypsychochild]

My parents used to be friends with him and I remember going to his house as a child for dinner a lot. I had my picture taken with him once and my mom said, “One day you’ll get why this is really cool and special.” Obviously I didn’t at the time cause he was just a dude we were friends with, but now I know what it actually meant and I’m glad I have it ☺️

[@user-op9mv5lq1u]

What's your name, me too

[@JeffWhite417]

@@user-op9mv5lq1u I put this song up there with Aerosmith's Dream On...not because they are similar, because they took you on a musical journey. Both were released in the early 70's, a time that will never be matched for rock ( in this case, soft rock) greatness. I was just a small child then, but have grown to realize those were the best days and hours of music. No matter how you feel, I bet you turn this song up when you hear it. For those just hearing it because of John Wick 4, I urge you to explore more 70's music.
