    I was lucky enough to meet Randy and his lovely wife in 2003, he came to see his mom and his brother. They lived in a small village in Cornwall. He was offered loads of contracts etc. He turned them all down. He suffered from really bad from stage fright. But if you Google some of the most beautiful songs in the world. He wrote so many top hits for people like Dolly Parton and others. Very well loved in the background. He wrote beautiful songs. The man was such a special person, truly lovely and his family. He wrote the song on the steps of a house on the cliffs in Looe, Cornwall. He was persuaded to release it. His nerves were terrible and he chose to write music and songs for others. He did sing for me as a birthday present and got a standing ovation. No body knew who he was, just me and his wife on a karaoke machine. Such a great loss. Thank you if you get to read this. I have amazing memories of them both.

It’s amazing… I remember sitting in the front seat of car next to my mother and looking out the window as we departed campsite…and as this song played…..at about 11 yrs old and almost starting crying. I was so moved by this song… his voice is like an Angel. RIP to Randy as he passed of Leukemia back in early 2000s.

    I've always loved this song, really beautiful singing. I agree, why didn't he have more beautiful songs and singing like this. A true music lover like you will give everybody an honest listen, regardless of who the artist is or from what era. Too many of today's young people just listen to pop or just rap, what a waste to not open your mind to the great music from the past. From the Big Bands to some of the present, and everything in between, Black, White, Latino, Foreign, i just love good music.

    One of the most touching things about this song...

    Writing this before I listen. Just want to say , I fell in love with this song when it first came out - I was like 12 think. Randy has such a sweet voice and he wore glasses which I loved for some reason( it’s a “thing”) I found it on a Compilation album with some other 70’s artists when I was 16( I don’t have it anymore-melted one summer). I think you will like it.

    Also by him: I Guess it Never Hurts to Hurt Sometimes. Both of these songs make me long for my mother who died while I was still an infant. Especially the line “sometimes it makes me sad that we never said goodbye.”

    Top tips...If you decide to leave someone, wait for sunny weather and close the door behind you.

      I KNOW I was like, "Man, I don't know what happened, but this person must've been REALLY in a hurry to leave if they couldn't even wait for the sky to clear up!"
      Also don't leave the door open when it's raining. That's just rude.

    When I hear this song, it always brings back a very sad memory, from about thirty years ago. It makes me blue again.

    I listen to classic rock and oldies stations all the time, but I haven't heard this song in probably 30 years or more. Funny how quickly the memory of a song like this can come back to you.

    Great choice to kick off One Hit Wonder Wednesday. I remember this song and another OHW released about the same time called "Chevy Van" by Sammy Johns. You might want to check it out.

    I was raised in England, I remember this song so well, listening to it on my little red pony radio, Radio Caroline, the rogue radio station out there in the seas somewhere....a pirate station... didn't realize how good my life was back then...❤️❤️❤️❤️

    A simple but great song from many years ago. Never thought much about it back then but today it brings me so much comfort. We all go through what this song says.

    Randy was fantastic. He also wrote many hit songs for other acts, one of the most famous was "I Guess it Never Hurts to Hurt Sometimes", which the Oak Ridge Boys took to the top of the charts. You'll love that one also.

    • @daphneduryea9136
