Souther.
He played a major role as multi-instrumentalist and arranger for Linda Ronstadt's breakthrough album, 1974's Heart Like a Wheel, and her next four albums. Among other accomplishments, he played the majority of instruments on "You're No Good," Ronstadt's only #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100, and the same on "When Will I Be Loved," "Heat Wave" and many other classic hits.

This song is definitely a reason why there will never be another decade like the '70s. This is brilliant music.
Very true. Melody and Harmony were King and Queen. Fantastic songwriting, musicianship, production and artistry.
well said,,,,quite right !!
Hell yes!!!
Yes indeed 1000% right.!!!!!
The Best Decades ever ❤ 70s
They don't make music like this anymore. The vocals, the piano, the drums, the lyrics. I could listen to this song a million times over.
Bass
@@jamesdeluca6657 That too!
Classic 1970's. We never knew how good we had it!
Amen
I am an adopted musician, so I definitely understand the feeling..:)
Some of us DEFINITELY knew!
Correct Matey......👍🇬🇧🤓
Spot on.
His vocals were so precise, so crisp. We need songwriters and singers with his talent.
This applies to all musicians in this track. The precision and congruence is immaculate.
I have very precise pipi.
Compared to todays lyrical content where they repeat the hook over and over this is a musical masterpiece! Spectacular musicianship
@@richardmassei9488 thank yo for compliment! my 3 bridez also call it mastapiece
It's the invisble gods of sound behind the scenes, people like Bill Porter who made that sound possible. We dont have the voices nor we have the hands to take those sounds as they came....
How lucky we were to be teenagers in the fantastic 70s
I was just thinking the same thing thing, Paul.
Indeed. Im 53 now. There was a time and that time has gone....4ever
Exactly. I remember staying up late to see my favorite bands on Midnight Special and Don Kirshner's Rock Concert. Now kids today can see them anytime by logging on. I think we appreciated things a helluva lot more back then.
Ain't it the truth !
We really were. Did not really know it then though.
Any 70s and 80s teens here? That was such a brilliant time to be alive. (This comment was originally left by my brother Stephen born in ‘74)
And some really remarkable technical things done then too, WITHOUT computers! For example, 10cc's "I'm not in love". Did you know what went into making the background vocals or who's voice was repeating "Big boys don't cry"? Here's a link to how it was made. Just a really interesting story! ua-cam.com/video/3oxe4mlsQos/v-deo.html
Sure was.
I'd be honored if some late 70s/early 80s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of TIME PASSAGES by Al Stewart, THE PINA COLADA SONG by Rupert Holmes ua-cam.com/video/TTiZQb9DC58/v-deo.html and WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES by Michael McDonald on my YT in tribute to the masters of the melodic sound of the era. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
graduated in 90, but obviously listened to 60,70 early 80s classic country, pop, classic and southern rock stations back then. Was not a hair band fan at all (except van halen) and by mid 80s pop/rock just turned to crap. I sit and listen to a lot of the same music and some johnny carson/early letterman on here wishing i could turn the clock back. sad and sucks and im not 50!!
'85 Grad here, but definitely remember this from my elementary school days
This song has been playing in this lonely boys head since 1978! Gives me goosebumps every time!
Same!
@@davidmcdaniel3693 i was working in the local kawasaki shop here at 16,tearing down bikes and sweeping floors,i quit cause i swept floors,this was playing,i destroyed my life at 16
@edward mcmillian Sorry to hear that. I get it though. I have been trying to stop sabotaging my life for more than 40 years. Finally making some progress. I pray that you will also.
@@davidmcdaniel3693 thanks friend
I was 10 when this came out.
I’m so sad I just found this amazing song at 44 years old I went to look up if he still tours and found out this amazing artist has passed 💔. RIP sir and your music will live on forever thank you for your gift to the world !!!!
He passed away in 2011.
❤❤❤
Oh I didn’t know he had passed what year ? How sad x
Any one doesn't appreciate this tune just isn't human.
lol true!!! Here still in 2020💩rocking out to thee best era of music 🎶 and countless other things😬😁its never gonna be the same!!!🇨🇦eh?! Lol hoser!
Like joe biden! soros and warren buffet!
Well, there are 1800 morons out there! This is one of the best by one of the best!
One of my faves....
My mom and I used to listen to this back in the 70's and my mom would do her little dance and point at me sing oh what a lonely, oh what a lonely boy.... She died a year and a half ago and I can't listen to without crying. It's good crying. I'll be seeing you soon Mom. I love you.
Bless you
My mom would point at me singing songs too..lost her in 2015..We will all meet again one day.
Gregg Poirier I’m so sorry for your loss 😭 I loss my dad 2 years ago😭
What a sweet memory.
Gregg, I can relate, a little too well. 😥
I grew up listening to 70s music,what a time to be alive.
Agree!
Precisely that, i loved the 70s the music was the best & just the way of life was lovely, my happiest ever memories, so glad i lived through those years the world sure is different now so I'll always be thankful
Indeed
I grew up in the 60 and 70 graduated high schoolers in 1975. Today I’m 68 and anyone born in 2000 missed out on some of the greatest music ever recorded. My kids enjoy the music of the 70 and 80 plus some 90 music.
Born in 1960. Best music ever.10cc, Pablo Cruse, Gino Vannelli,Boston, 38 Special, Chicago, Elton John, so so many.
Born in 1963, loved the 70s and listen to 70s music all the time. Seeing 10cc in November ❤
This song is pure gold. Pure class. The orchestrations, the singing, the lot. Never gets tired never gets old. Absolute solid gold classic bona fide.........
Even the singers name is gold :)
So true ❤❤❤👍
You are not wrong. Andrew Gold was an extremely talented artist who left us with some wonderful songs.
You wouldn`t be Jewish !!
Pure Andrew gold.
Any other Andrew Gold lovers out there in 2018?
Yes me
Great music from Andrew Gold, I sure love all his music, a fan since the beginning
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO wat a lonely boi
Arcadio saberon I grew up with this stuff and loved it. Best part is, my teenage boys found it and they love it too!
Arcadio saberon yup, see my comments, I’m with ya.👍🏻
Fantastic!!! They don't make music this good anymore. RIP Andrew.
Agree!
❤❤
Agree!
Im 60, loved the 60s loved the 70s loved the 80s, i was a lucky girl❤
Just saying...🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
We were definitely lucky to have lived and grown up during that time. We were 14 when this came out back in 1977, with Welcome Back Kotter, Happy Days and Barney Miller on the tv! Hard to believe I'm an old man now at 60, but that's in chronological AGE ONLY!! Still a kid at heart especially when I hear this music!!
I’m listening to this in 2020 and it’s great!
Me too!
I will have this song on my playlist forever. Brilliant song/ piece of music/ production. Absolute top drawer.
Good to hear haven't heard this in a while glad I'm listening again 👍
Better than ever!!!
I've listened to it since the '70's. Just timelines and simply great music, so enjoyable and tied to the timeline of my life.
This guy was an incredibly talented songwriter, musician and singer! Really enjoyed his style.
RIP sir
Gone way too soon hey mate?
Yeah. He was too underrated and therefore never had enough success, so I obviously felt bad for him when he died!
@@neilminshull9510 ,yup!
Totally agree
one of the best songs of the 70,s.very talented man...RIP ANDREW..
I miss the 70's.
Songs like this simply aren’t written now A days.
This is heavey .
RIP Andrew Gold(1951-2011) he certainly had the perfect surname as his voice is pure gold to listen to
1951-2011
@Cody Engelke And his mother was Marni Nixon, who dubbed Audrey Hepburn's singing in "My Fair Lady", Natalie Wood in "West Side Story", and a ton of others.
Thats why he was andrew GOLD hehe
He was very talented his dad Ernest Gold was a famous film composer as well. I'm a Gold these guys were distant relatives but sadly I never got to meet them
Absolutely !
Music like this soothes my soul. Wish I could be youthful and ignorant to life’s hard truths again. Bittersweet knowing turning back time isn’t an option, but at least I can find this music and put myself back there in my mind. Thank you for being a piece of the soundtrack of my life,,, the good part! ❤
Hi I just wanted to thank you again for being so supportive and following me on my journey. I love inspiring and encouraging others. People like you help me to keep showing up! Hope you are having an amazing day!
Fantastic, it's so true ❤
Not only did he back Linda Ronstadt (her background vocals on second verse), but he also wrote the Golden Girls song, Thank You for Being a Friend....he also co-wrote many songs you are all familiar with too. Just a brilliant musician!
The 70s good or bad it was still better than current times without doubt.
Wish I could turn back the clock to these times, 1975 17 again
LET'S GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😀
Me too.
Gold’s voice, his piano, the lyrics-and of course the buildup to his final high note-truly make my heart soar. That’s what really great music should do for you, it should move your heart and soul, or make you jump up to dance or even make you weep. Andrew Gold was pure gold.
He moves my heart..Never let her slip her away..confirms it.
Hi I just wanted to thank you again for being so supportive and following me on my journey. I love inspiring and encouraging others. People like you help me to keep showing up! Hope you are having an amazing day!
Andrew's father composed the soundtrack to "Exodus," an unforgettable piece of work. I am sure Andrew learned a lot from his father. Andrew was cut down at age 59 by heart problems. This was a tragic loss to the music community.
Certainly a very sad day. Extraordinary talent. RIP
You couldn't turn on the radio and not hear this amazing song. Brilliant. It's a Classic.
yes a great song feel good song
i was transfixed by this song as a kid in the early 70s. relistening to it now, it's fire!
Yes , whats the matter with these radio stations not playing this song .
Who still loves to listen to Andrew Gold? 2019
I do!
me
What month of 2019???
I love it so muche !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude. 5.6 million views and counting. Clearly PLENTY are still listening.
Sang this song word for word when I was 13 years old..... now 61 and I am still singing this song .... word for word.
Same here fella...........................so many tracks of my years I still sing these days. UA-cam is my very own time machine - brings out so many emotions listing to all the tracks.
The 1970’s were the best. Totally different decade and totally different music compared to these days.
Andrew Gold is like Alan Parsons, Alan Oday, Albert Hammond. Much more behind the scenes. Hidden talent that’s a lot of people don’t see.
Checkout Art's Breakaway album. Andrew is all over it.
Peter McCann might have been the same.
Someone from 2020 listening is wonderful music.
Brings back to the time when everything was cool and life was free and easy.
I can relate to this song so much as it tells my story. I sort of wonder if Andrew originally sung this about himself. Still touches me today and I am 59 now.
I can relate to it even more, I was born in 1951! Always loved this song.
According to Wikipedia, it's not autobiographical, despite 1951 being the year of his birth as well.
Can’t believe this song is over 40 years old! I’ll never get tired of listening to this. We miss you Andrew! Thanks for the music, and “thank you for being a friend”.
"I never realised I could miss someone so bad" R.I.P. Andrew Gold
Never knew Andrew had died when did he die
I see what you did there.
@@TheCrusty68 Sadly, I believe his mom (Marni Nixon) outlived him.
There is more musicality in this song than in the entire Billboard top 100 of today.
I would say in the entire Billboard Top 100 of the last two decades. At least.
Was SO in love with Andrew in the 80’s 💚💚 was devastated when he died 😢
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day. Stay Safe
@@gregnormal55. Hi Greg. Yes….I was and still am a huge fan of Andrew 👍 loved his music x
@@maryfrancesaitken5644 Hey! That’s very good to know, I just can’t stop myself from listening to this song anytime am alone! If I may ask which of all his songs is your favorite? Have a great day… Stay Safe
Hi I just wanted to thank you again for being so supportive and following me on my journey. I love inspiring and encouraging others. People like you help me to keep showing up! Hope you are having an amazing day
This is so brilliant, both as a pop song and as a production...How it staggers time in the last verse! A masterclass.They don't make 'em like this anymore..Such talent.. RIP Andrew Gold.
who else in 2019 is listening to ANDREW GOLD?
this is really ALWAYS in my recommondations hahaha no matter what i listen Andrew is there, but i love this song
Love it
I do because we have to do it to prevent good music from dying.
1977 hit. 🤗❤️
Me. He was a genius. What he did on You're No Good for Linda Ronstadt is amazing.
Who sings a middle eight verse through a guitar solo?? Only a frickin genius like Andrew Gold!
I wish I could give 2 thumbs up to this song
Thank you, Andrew, for "being a friend" to so many like Linda Ronstadt, Kenny Edwards, Wendy Waldman, Karla Bonhoff and to us, music lovers!
It kinda flashed Andrew's mother's creds a little quick there. She was Marni Nixon, who sang Natalie Wood's parts in West Side Story, Deborah Kerr's parts in The King and I, and most controversially, she provided the vocal parts of Eliza Doolittle for Audrey Hepburn, a role everyone thought should go to the original actress/singer, Julie Andrews. She was also one of the nuns singing about the Trouble With Maria in the movie version of The Sound of Music, and she sang Grandma Fa in Mulan. Andrew Gold played guitar and backup for Linda Ronstadt during her most active phase, providing the guitar solo and most of the other instruments on Linda's cover of You're No Good. And of course, his tune Thank You For Being a Friend was the theme song to The Golden Girls.
😲
Thank you for that, good to know!
You're awesome Thank You!!!!
Oh, damn! I definitely know who Marni was...
If only they didn't need her for the movie, and USED JULIE!!!
Thnx for the much needed HISTORY
Back when they used to write actual songs with a point.
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
So true .. nowadays music is weak ..no soul connection
Yes….when Songs actually told a story
They don’t make music like this anymore! ❤
If you ask any artist from the 70’s, no matter rock, pop, country, or disco they will tell you it was their best work hands down. ❤️
The Cocaine was pure and better then....god for creativity.
Born in 62 - I was the right ages when these song came out. They just don't write like this anymore - what a fab song ( and great Era - I love listening to this stuff on a cassette
I like watching the videos I didn't get to see back the the day because we only had three channels.
Born in 62 myself loved this time best time's of my life 🧬
😆
I was a young guy with a business painting apartments back when this song came out. I literally worked 7 days a week and long days listening to the radio all day long. This song was my fav of all the hits on the station. It gave me shivers to listen and still does. This guy is just such an unsung hero. When you research him, his legacy is almost unmatched!
Hey Mark, it might be time to paint those apartments again? ...just say'n 😎
@@Coupydog If I could go back in time I would!
@@Coupydog Haha! 🤣😂🤣😂
I was a teenager in the 70's. I loved the music that came from that time and I still love it today. Not every song sounded the same back then like music from today. The music from the 70's was a gift. I'm SO glad I had it to listen to as a young girl. It was very special.
So true, it all sounds the same today! In the 70's we had singer-songwriter pop ballads like from Elton John and James Taylor, jazzy pop like Steely Dan, heavier rock like Boston and even Jazz like George Benson's Breezin and This Masquerade, plus instrumental hits. We had it all and thought it would always be like that!
@@bretstanley8931 It would've been great if music had remained the way it was during the 70's. No such luck unfortunately. At least we had it for a time.👍
@@stickywicket7585 Agreed!
Agree!
We grew up with the best music and live bands todays music sucks!
The drummer is amazing, Mike Botts who also played with Bread was on this song. The precision was amazing and can be heard though out the song and in the final bars just shows his skill. RIP Mike and Andrew.
In my youth I didn’t appreciate just how deep this song is. Absolutely beautiful lyrics and musical composition. Came out my senior year of High School and still stand the test of time.
My Jr year....man what a time to be alive.
Yes, Sir!
Same
my senior year too!! Amazing! Yes!
The last part of this song where he belts out the words " oh what a lonely boy" is what always got me! It's very emotional! The lyrics are deep! About a young boy who takes what hos parents said to him very, very seriously! It's so heartbreaking, but nonetheless an excellent Rock and Roll song! RIL:Andrew!
This song makes me feel like 1977 was yesterday. I can still fell the wind in my hair while riding my Schwinn bike down my street......
I was jealous of my neighbor who had a Schwinn with banana seat and shock absorber over the front wheel. You weren't that guy were you?
Another person from 1977 here. Sweet, sweet memories.
me as well
@@havenofear7033 I had a yellow Schwinn Sting Ray with a banana seat, but I don't think it had a shock absorber. I used to deliver papers on it every morning.
Oh how i loved my schwinn Bicycles...My green stick shift 5 speed ended up meeting our neighbor. Mr. Balsamo's Thunderbird as I T-Boned him and broke both arms. He was takin to the hospital first as he suffered an Heart attack
I was a 70s child and I sure do miss that decade. It was a simple life back then.
What a fantastic tune.
The time signatures.. the syncopation is just brilliant.
Waddy Wachtel, as always, slaying that guitar solo. 👍🏻👍🏻
The chord choice arrangements on this is genius, very original. That's why it never gets old.
Quality
that is so true.great great song.
Yes indeedy
Totally! This song and "Life on Mars" by David Bowie are probably my two favorite pop songs. There's so much going on from a musical aspect in both songs but it still has catchy hooks and with that emotive undercurrent.
I still love this song to this day ! Miss those days.. 😢
What a voice! That high note! He nailed it.
I'm crying because of how beautiful this song is.
Right! What a great song huh?
You're not the only one!
I was a sad lonely boy when I heard this song on the radio I was 10 years old now I'm 56 and I still remember this song and that lonely boy is still inside me 😞
@@alextollinche9947 Ditto Alex. Take care :)
@@vacalling Prayer Helps and Good Friends and Family too also call your Guardian Angel I call mine at least 5 or more times a week they help we just can't see them their in the spiritual realm .👼
The influence of his parents love of classical music is clearly in play with this song. Great song!!!
You can't get tired of hearing this superb song, it really is a class piece of music from a brilliant decade the 70's.
Brings happiness. Wish I could that.
Agree!
I Am, no more than once-a-day!
I owned the 45 RPM as a kid! Great tune, I'd play it over and over (Probably drove my parents nuts!).
one of the finest pop songs ever written ...it has everything ..if you are not moved by this song I pity you ..great singing , brilliant arrangement god bless you Andrew.
Music will never be this great again, just incredible!
one of the all time greats ... ❤
Andrew is definitely the most underrated musician ever and I will stand by that until the day I die
You've never heard of the most underrated musician ever.

This song belongs in every 1970's playlist. Also fun for karaoke!
My all time favorite song. Great music.
I love this song ! Yes the 70's music was the best because of songs like this. Thanks for posting
I've always loved this song. As a child and teen in the 70's we had so much great music that still sounds great today. I you tell there's no greater era of music and musicians like the 60's-80's. I feel so blessed to have come up in that time period.
Absolutely !
Luck git
Each decade different but each decade great, musically.
I agree with you.
The 1970s AM and FM radio airwaves were a veritable cornucopia of musical styles and genres.
Amen!!!
I miss the 70s and 80s so much. What I wouldn't give to go back. Awesome times and music
Summer of 77, best time of my life! music was good, no one trying to control your life... freedom
First heard this great song in 1977. It's 2021 and "I'm pushin' on through!"
Me too, I was 16 when this song came out and, like you, still pushing thru ;)
@@RichardRitenour0522 Right on!
one of the coolest chord progressions ever in the chorus.
I love this era of music. It really strikes the heart of a 10 year old boy who was a romantic at a young age.

This guy was definitely one of the best musicians/ singer/ songwriter/ composer and everything else back in the 70's.
Absolutely!❤
This song such an instant classic still to this day 👌 🙌 🔥 🎵
Dateless! ❤❤❤
61 yo and still listening to this, a lot better than the dross of today
I was 16 when Andrew did this song in 77 and I always loved it but it kind of made me sad,....and then he did the opposite sunshiney..Thankyou for being a friend,...golden girl's theme song, and it blew my mind, ...I only wish it was his voice on the show but I still adore the show.....rip Andrew and all the golden girl's💗💗💗💗
I keep telling my kids DON’T LET MY MUSIC GO , WHEN I AM GONE . They love the 70’s like I DO . 💜💜
Wow........The more i listen to the music of my generation, the more i truly believe just how blessed we were.
Memories come flooding back, lost loves, lost opportunities and always the thought of.................i wish i could have the time back again.
Reality is.......that is not going to happen........But at least i have the songs to remind me of the best days of my life.
I am sure that others of my generation feel the same................so best we can do is reminisce and let those days come flooding back!!!
I sooooo miss those times and i wish i appreciated it more................... Big Jim (New Zealand).
Yes me too, we were lucky, at least we have that
Big Jim - New Zealand YOU KNOW IT JIM,growing up in the ‘70’s was the BEST OF TIMES.The music,hanging out with friends SMOKE’N weed.✌️✌️😊👍
Big Jim - New Zealand summer of ‘77,buddy.
I agree Big Jim, I wish I had been less shy and, dare I say, a little prudish! missed so many wonderful chances, such a fantastic time, the music, the clothes, the people, the sights and sounds and the drive people had, the patience and so much more compassion, where's it all gone?
A little LESS prudish I mean!!
- I'm 63 years old. Why am I crying? ❤️
63 and I am too I get a intense melancholy feeling.
So superior to today's music..when musicians played their own instruments and sang songs with meaning
One of the greatest rock songs in history! It's perfection. Period!
Rock? More pop.
It's a preview of the type of Rock/ pop that TOTO would mine for more gold. Brilliant song writer and vocalist Mr. Gold was.
What a beautiful song . How anyone could dislike this is beyond me .
It's lame. The whole premise of the song is lame. Like, what does the year have to do with any of it? It could just as easily be "In the summer of 1732...." Lame.
Maybe if you are the lonely boy?
@@livenhfree Social media was just made for you.
@@livenhfree Well just keep listening to todays noise and you'll stay as lame as your comment.
@@Blueknight1960 Oh, do I believe you, brother. What plays for today's pop sucks. Still, this was stoopid sticky-sweet crap. 70s/80s/90s rocked. Check out WXRV. You won't be disappointed!
What a beat !
Just bloody fabulous !! 🌹
This man followed his mom as a great contributor to music. His mom, Marni Nixon, provided the vocal voice for Natalie Wood in West Side Story, Deborah Kerr in The King and I, and Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady. She also appeared as one of the sisters in The Sound of Music.
Can't forget his dad, Ernest Gold, who composed the magnificent score for Exodus.
Oh my gosh... I never knew that! Thanks.
I’m lucky to have been born in the early 60’s! The music from the 70’s and 80’s to me was the best!! I remember Andrew Gold was such a talented singer and this song was my favorite! Thank you Andrew for your music!!! See you soon my brother!!!! 🙏🏻💖
So true 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
I was born in 61 .I miss the 60s, 70s, and 80 music
The 70s music will put you on another planet that no one will understand unless you have a love of the 70s music. You don't need drugs or alcohol to appreciate the best music ever. God....take me back to the 70s and leave me there....I'll be just fine.
I always dug andrews harmonized guitar solos, and I’m 70 years old.
Amazing song and one of the most tasteful guitar solo ever
These great artists pass away, but they leave their talent alive for us to enjoy. RIP Andrew Gold.
Brian Brown I have this album on vinyl... awesome!!!
Brian Brown this was and still is one of my most favorite songs and this music really takes me back two Dittos pants and Dorothy Hamill haircut and discos just getting started! Love it !!!
Absolutely! Listening to songs like this through the years ensures Andrew Gold is always remembered
I didn’t know he had died! ☹️ sad he didn’t get to see one of his songs go viral on TikTok
Yes it was. I'm 56 now and miss those times.
I just love the harmony part with Linda Ronstadt. Just awesome.
