Oct 23, 2008 - Pardon me but the 70's F - ken rocked and the music as well. Really wished those days would come back, or never had ended.

Oct 24, 2008 - My life had taken a temporary turn for the worse when this came out, but my mood invariably brightened whenever I heard it. So many thanks to MSC for helping me through a difficult time. And a special mention for the late Gordon Huntley, whose pedal steel guitar makes the track extra-magical.

Nov 2, 2008 - What are you saying...you typed in Matthews Southern Comfort expecting to find Metallica? That shows a distinct lack of intelligence...get someone to help you use youtube, it's obviously too complex for you !

Nov 4, 2008 - Huge #1 hit in the UK. How'd it chart in the US?
keyfreeman Says:
Nov 7, 2008 - this is the best take of this song. i always thought joni's was too slow and csn was too fast.

Nov 15, 2008 - What I wouldn't give to have been there Salud
Moonlighthasmehooked Says:
Nov 15, 2008 - I agree that this is a better version that CSNY or Joni Mitchell. But I thought there was another version around the same beat as this that was fairly popular in the US. In any case, I never made it there even though I was around the right age. To think that all the people there are now at least in their 50s. What happened to all the idealism from then? Where did it go?Thanks for posting

Nov 28, 2008 - I used to have this single on vinyl years ago but I've lost it - the B-side was called 'Scion', which was an awesome song in its own right. Anyone remember it, and could they post it? Thanks.

Nov 29, 2008 - My dad used to sing this to me when I was a baby...I've loved it ever since
