I love this song. His phrasing is unequalled. I see it as an ode to parenthood and the unconditional love a parent feels about their bubs ... whether they are 3 or 30! Get well Farnsey! 💕

John is just gorgeous with so much love to give...

After watching the Farnham Doco Movie this song is meaningful to him as family (wife, children) is everything to him and I can imagine as he sings this it is personal and deep down inside the lyrics conveys his love and feelings towards them, although every song choice he makes is deliberate. 😊

One more reason we put him at the top.

[@toddyrocket296]

Imagine having a Ferrari and still having the self control to slow it down to 5km/hour so that people could admire it’s beauty.. that’s John Farnham!

Well said

What a great analogy Dr_KAP I'm all teary hearing this beautiful song

[@devilsadvocate2548]

Fully agree Roscoe. Once again John does what he does best, letting members of his band have 'their' moment to shine. Even when singing with other artists he'll pull his microphone even further away so he doesn't over power the other vocalist.

[@justlinsu]

This was written after the birth of his son....wow...I've seen him sing so many lovely songs...but this one is so special...the love you see on his face is beautiful...makes me all teary.... . He also wrote 'Burn For You' for his wife Jilly....I cry with that too lol. I'm just s big softy lol

Richard Marx wrote this song for John who he regards to be the best. Richard Marx is also one of my favourite artists of all time

[@kennykarlsson6691]

Amazing as allways. Check out the writer of this song mr Richard Marx. The King of ballad songs outstanding singer and song writer.
