So if that's the case I doubt it would have been played in discos. I have some memories of places that I heard it that were not in discos but on the radio. I recall there was a bit of a travelogue aspect to the song in the lyrics. Ballad, then maybe this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: People often called the song "Breakfast in America" but that is album title Edited April 10 by Mike Teavee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 Will check all those out later. Currently surrounded by Iranians so it wouldn't be prudent to listen at this time. Yeah the year range is a guess. Could be wrong. Maybe the song wasn't as big of a hit as I thought. The pot thickens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
