Cooljohn,

I also liked that song quite a bit back in the day. When they played it on the radio endlessly! lol
I was going through a break up at the time.

I also love all of the Smiths songs and Morrissey songs. Some say they are baneful but I love them all.

I usually don't listen to sad songs -- because I'm already sad enough ! --, but I always found "Summer Soft" by Stevie Wonder beautiful :

" Summer soft ....
Wakes you up with a kiss to start the morning off
In the midst of herself playing Santa Claus
She brings gifts through her breeze

Morning rain ....
Gently plays her rhythmns on your window pane
Giving you no clue of when she plans to change
To bring rain or sunshine

And so you wait to see what she'll do
Is it sun or rain for you
But it breaks your heart in two
When you find it's October
And she's gone
And she's gone
Summer's gone
Taking with her summer's play

Winter wind....
Whispers to you that he wants to be your friend
But not waiting for your answer he begins
Forcing dangers way with his breeze

Morning snow...
Plans to have a winter ball for you to throw
But just where or when he never lets you know
If it's snow or clear days you'll find

And so you wait to see what he'll do
Is it sun or rain for you
But it breaks your heart in two
Cause you've been fooled by April
And he's gone
And he's gone
Winter's gone

You find it's October
And she's gone
And she's gone
Summer's gone

You've been fooled by April
And he's gone
And he's gone
Winter's gone

You find it's October
And she's gone
And she's gone
Summer's gone

You've been fooled by April
And he's gone
And he's gone
Winter's gone "

Sounds like a good song, Romantic, I'll listen to that one on Youtube if they have it.

I love Stevie Wonder's songs: My Cherie Amour and Superstition.
