    For those who thought that Richard Harris only sung "Mc Carthur's Park" as a joke. Richard was not only a Shakespearean Actor and Oscar Winner, and Albus Dumbledore, but a fantastic singer.

      No joke, he teamed up with Jimmy Webb who gave him great songs & the 60s was musically inclusive in the charts. Best decade ever.

      My father was jimmy Webb and Richard Harris s. Attorney (negotiator) once Harris came to an appointment at our house four hours late bombed out of his mind. Thought my father was going to have an embolism. He was the straightest entertainment lawyer (very very very successful). Never saw him have a drink. It was actually hilarious

      I really like the Novo Bono Jr. (Filipino singer) version. This song was originally a French tune by the name of “Parce que je t’aime mon enfant”, sung by Claude François. The Dutch version, “Mijn zoon”, by Willy Alberti, is also a must.

    I remember this originally had A LOT of air play here in the US as an up and coming hit…When it stalled at #41 on the Billboard charts, the song ceased from being played on our A.M. radio dials. Elvis in ‘75 would bring this into the Top 40 but without the original moving feeling heard here.

      I couldn’t say when a man known as Richard Harris’ life as an ARTIST 1st enriched my life powerfully not solely with the blessing of his talent, but the choices he made in expressing that talent! His work reflected the pathos of the human condition, but ultimately with a stand for humility & “something better!” For me, that’s LOVE, despite the sorrows!
      ON YOU GO Richard, wherever you may be! Here you live on with us in the hearts that you touched with your beauty!🙏
