10 Comments on “500 Miles Away from Home: Peter and Gordon”
My Dear Hedley,
I do love Stookey United as their harmony is perfection on this song, but I had this in my files and thought it ought to be played. I’m sure it was quite unexpected as it wasn’t a hit for them, but I like their voices here.They are even singly highlighted.
I sang along 🙂
Next week I’ll be 150 miles away from home, sort of summer vacation. With northbound “500 miles away from home” I could probably reach Christer’s place.
Birgit,
If you are going over to Christer’s place, you need to make sure that he has his TV tuned to the World Cup Final, assuming that good things happen for Germany tomorrow
GFnu,
I had to look these guys up as I hadn’t ever heard them before this. When I read they were identical twins, I had to go and find some pictures. I did. When they were younger, they did look identical but they don’t as much now being older. I like them.

OK Kat, so why this version ? (not that I don’t like it ‘cos I do)
We dodged Stookey United, Joan, Timberlake and even Gomer Pyle (whoever he is).
You say Peter and Gordon, I say “World without Love”
Nice Monday surprise

World Without Love is a favorite of mine.

Birgit,
I’m sure he’d love the visit. That actually is a fun idea. Just do the miles and see where they take you.

Hedley, EVERY TV should be tuned to the World Cup Final ! It won’t be a shame to loose against Brazil tomorrow, but hope dies last.
