One of my favorite songs for what, 38 years now. Sometimes I don't even want to listen to it as it makes me cry. Heartbreak and emotional distance never sounded so good.
1/ In The Meantime

The Recurrence album is lightning in a bottle, where even a non-single like this demonstrates hook and songcraft. The guitar work is sublime. Love, love, love this song.
2/ Chrysalis

Their first sparkling hit (for me) - the moment you knew they had the goods.

A holiday in her gaze
The sweetest day
That's okay
My word, there's such a multitude
My word of different avenues
Down one of them
I lost my word for you

My third guess was inspired by #TheRailwayChildren (film, not book), so thanks for your help Lionel Jeffries.

Proper childhood nostalgia! This is a genuine British poster for "The Railway Children", Lionel Jeffries' beloved adaptation of E. Nesbit's classic adventure.

121 years ago today was the very first production of Peter Pan, at the Duke of York’s Theatre in London.
So it sounds like #TheRailwayChildren were among the first audiences.
“Do you believe in Fairies?”
“YES I MOST CERTAINLY DO!”
Happy birthday to Jenny Agutter.

We’re watching the 1997 ITV production of #TheRailwayChildren, which has Jenny Agutter as Mother and Richard Attenborough as the Old Gentleman. It really is very good. (Pocket your prejudices!).
Aaaargh. This #SkyArts documentary about #TheRailwayChildren talks about “The KEELY and Worth Valley Railway”.
Glad no one hurt when the train was derailed by the landslide in Cumbria today. Where's Jenny Agguter and her red bloomers? #cumbria #therailwaychildren
I just watched "The Railway Children" (Lionel Jeffries, 1970) and rated it 8/10 #TheRailwayChildren #LionelJeffries #JennyAgutter #SallyThomsett #GaryWarren #DinahSheridan #BernardCribbins
#TheRailwayChildren was on BBC 2 today & is on the iplayer for 29 days. Finally made it to the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway this summer and I did get a little teary eyed when we went through Oakworth Station (Bernard Cribbins voice was echoing in my head!) www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...
