God, don't you know it! I wish we could, too. But like one person wrote, I wish I realized then what I know now, that this is a really lovely song! (I'm afraid I fell too much under the influence of flashier rock stars.😂)
This was one of the easiest listening songs I'd ever heard. I remember driving in a very heavy fog one late evening on a back country New England road going to Boston the first time I'd heard it. It burned in my brain and each time I hear it, I think of that trip.
Every time I hear this song it takes me back to the late summer-early fall of 1975. I was in basic training at Fort Dix, NJ. There's a line in the song that goes "...well the summer's gone and I hope she's feeling the same". Summer was gone and I think of all the good times I had that summer before I went in. That sad melancholy piano riff at the beginning.
Gerald Linford Beckley is an American singer, songwriter, and musician, and a founding member of the band America. Beckley was born to an American father and an English mother. He began playing the piano at the age of three and the guitar a few years later. He is 67 now and in good health.
"Flyin' me back to Memphis Gotta find my Daisy Jane Well the summer's gone And I hope she's feelin' the same Well I left her just to roam the city Thinkin' it would ease the pain I'm a crazy man and I'm playin' my crazy game, game Does she really love me I think she does Like the star above me, I know Because when the sky is bright Everything's all right!""

Probably my favorite song from America. And I like them all!

One of my favorite America tunes. I learned how to play it on the piano…love the chords!!
One of the classic love songs of all time. I used to play this on the radio in the late 70s and early 80s whenever I could get it in. Pure clean sound
Back when music was still music. Sigh.
beautiful song. makes me teary eyed. the world at a saner time.
I love this song. Special memories....❤
Beautiful music 2023 this music will NEVER pass..14 and full of promises and hope Wow where does time go 😪
They are simply the best. My great grandaughter Is Daisy Jane & I always loved that song!
Still a beautiful song. It never gets old. But many more I love by America.
this song is so simple and beautiful.. was just a kid when this song came out..i wish i was listening with an adult mind and not a kids.
It truly never fails everytime Gerry's piano comes in, my eyes tear up instantly.
Relate
lovi ng this song since day one!!
"Flyin' me back to Memphis
Gotta find my Daisy Jane
Well the summer's gone
And I hope she's feelin' the same
Well I left her just to roam the city
Thinkin' it would ease the pain
I'm a crazy man and I'm playin' my crazy game, game
Does she really love me I think she does
Like the star above me, I know
Because when the sky is bright
Everything's all right!""
❤❤❤

Saw America last night at the Lynn Auditorium. Awesome show. A little disappointed they didn't play this song. So good!

Ventura Highway was my favorite America song.Until I herd this tune
Reminds me of the good times as a child growing up. A simpler time, unlike now with this virus that infests our society. 3/31/2020
Which virus? Covid or the brain eating virus called Liberalism
What liberalism/ leftism virus?
Wow , this was my song! Taking it back to when i was 11.
One of my favorites ❤
I was just a kid who won a radio in a colouring contest lol. "A Horse with no Name" and the golden age of soft rock on AM radio :)
1st slow dance ever 1977. Remember slow dancing? Different time.
Always wished I would have seen you guys, love ya all❤️
love this song 😮❤.
Cool Harmonies
That violin sounds like the music is coming from heaven
Yes, there is something deeply nostalgic about it.
magical piece of music- it is worth buying the 'Hearts' album just for this track.
Makes me smile every time.
Thanks for the visuals too. 💯❤Great and wise song.
No words...
A real good song like all of songs were their
Love
The Last Unicorn is my daughters favorite🥰💚🩵💙💛🧡🩷💜💖
Unfortunately the cool and creative vibe of the 70's evaporated for this group by 1978 .
I was 10. Funny how the words, stick with you for the years...
Great song,,,,I sure miss Dan Peek😞
Me too! Rest In Peace Dan!
