    My Mom loved this band when I was a kid, but I didn’t pay any attention because it was “old people’s” music. Now that I’m “old”-I see this band is OUTSTANDING! Fantastic performers, songwriters & musicians. Truly.

    I've always loved this song since it's release in 1983! What a great song that always brings back great memories of my late wife and I, and our three kids. Little River Band was excellent!!!

    This song will always remind me of my father. I remember when he passed away. This song randomly played on the radio at work, I was living in Australia at the time while he lived in New Zealand. Then I got the ph call which was on my birthday😢. I couldn't believe it. Now i listen to this classic which he played alot when I was younger. I couldn't help but think he played this song the day he died to say his last goodbye 💔 I love you dad 🥺

    I was a little kid when I first heard this song. It reminded me of the broken home I grew up in. My parents split up when I was 6 and they divorced 2 months before my 7th birthday. Now I am 37 years old.

    Who is here in 2024 ? I am. The Little River band was just about everyone’s favorite bands secretly. When the Little River band was used in the Movie “The Other guys” and when Will Ferrell Said “LRB was the Shit” MOST of us Secretly Agreed.

    This song is sad on multiple levels. First, it has been my experience when a woman changes her mind, that's a done deal. Trying to convince her to change her mind back is likely to be futile because she just did that. And of course the divorce/kids connection is really sad.

    The other guy was not around, to talk to us kids.
    He never understood our mom, the way that Dad did.
    We had it all with our dad. I wish she would've tried again.
    My parents divorced when I was 4 years-old. My stepdad was a workaholic & was abusive & neglectful to both my mom & my sister & I.. I was 8 years-old, when this song came out, & was in the thick of it, then. I've always loved this song. But I never realized how close these lyrics came to my life, until now.
