Till the sun falls from the sky
Till life on earth is through
I'll be needing you.
I know sometimes you may wonder
From little things I say and do
But there's no need for you to wonder
If I need you, 'cause I'll need you.
Till the rivers all run dry
Till the sun falls from the sky
Till life on earth is through
I'll be needing you.
Too many times I don't tell you
Too many things get in the way
And even though sometimes I hurt you
Still you show me, in every way.
Till the rivers all run dry
Till the sun falls from the sky
Till life on earth is through
I'll be needing you...
Had Mark Knopfler sung this, almost exactly the same way, RP listeners would be giving it 7's and 8's.
Well said
I can't comment on "schlagermusic" not being of that demographic, pro or con, but I have, my friends have, lived Don Williams' songs. Back off
No. I am not from the US and this music sounds like folk music but not in a good way. More in a generic cheapish way. We have that kind of music too and we call it 'schlagermusic'. I would not call it very eclectic.
If I have to point to a weak spot on RP it would be 2 things:
- Bad country music
- 'Pretty Swedish girls on the cover'- music
My friend, I do not know what "schlagermusic" is but I can tell you that this song IS part of the eclectic mix that radio paradise lovingly provides us. If you want to put it down then that is fine but when you misuse the word eclectic it pretty much negates your entire argument. You might as well have said that this song is not a library.
Thanks again for broadening my horizon RP!
I know this song from am album called 'Rough Mix' by Pete Townshend & Ronnie Lane.
A smarter sounding & overall better version than this dull original, IMHO. Great song, though.
That's where I first encountered it, too. Initial exposure makes an imprint that's tough to overcome. But I've learned to dig the original. Like Marley's I Shot The Sheriff, though I heard EC's cover first.
Bill will educate those that Listen.
Many Thanks to Bill & Rebbeca
Anyway, Don Williams was one of my dad's favorites so I'm surprised and pleased to hear a little of him here.

I don't know,... it ain't country to me because it doesn't have any twangin steel guitar run that I could hear and not any screaming or scratchy fiddle work no hint of a mouth harp.
Sounded more like a orchestra to me.
Sounds more like what the crooners did years back to me. But not country and western to my ear.
Don Williams does another song that I like called "It's nothing to me" good tune decent guitar work and a real good story to it if you bother to listen. Probably the only tune he ever recorded that I do really like.
then they need to broaden their horizons a bit! great song I say.

Can't really see anything wrong with that. A lot of what is played here could be classified that way.

This is why Loyal RP Listeners Listen!
