Wow, what beautiful memories. I discovered this song during my 3-week holiday in South Africa. It was playing on all the radio stations. A good South African friend I met then gave me Geraldine's single in Johannesburg the night before we said goodbye. It's something I'll never forget. Thank you Jon for such a beautiful memory.
Wow - I heard this song this morning again 2 / 02 / 2020 and became so heartsore with Nostalgia as it was my mother's Favourite song back then.....So many memories just came up from my youth days.
BEAUTIFUL song, so nostalgic!! I remember when this came out, while she was touring South Africa 1982/3, especially singing for the "troepies" in South West Africa at the time. Originally this was a song composed by Phil Cordell in 1971 which he recorded under the name Springwater; then German singer Michael Holm had a hit with it twice in South Africa (in 1972 and in 1976) (the song was titled "I'll Return"); after that Italian songwriters wrote new lyrics in Italian and Geraldine's husband Phil Coulter and his writing partner Bill Martin re-wrote new lyrics for it from the Italian, hence "Take Me Back" and "I'll Return" have different lyrics but the same melody.
"I Will Return" by Springwater (written by Phil Cordell) is a different song to "I'll Return" written by Ignazio Polizzy, Claudio Natili, Marcello Ramoino, Michael Holm & Tony Eyers and was recorded by German Michael Holm (produced by Giorgio Moroder). Holm also did a version of "I Will Return", and they both charted in South Africa as you say, but they were different songs. The Geraldine song took the tune of I'll Return, with English lyrics as you say by Bill Martin and hubby Phil Coulter for her song take me back
I saw Geraldine in 1982 when I was doing my 2 years’ National Service. I still get goosebumps and extremely nostalgic whenever I listen to the songs which were popular those 2 years.
Brings back golden memories as a child.. Grew up listening to this song and it just keeps getting better every year.. So much memories... Brings a tear to my eye
I want to thankyas all when I wrote this song ..I lost my mom .I grew up on a farm in alberta Goodridge .missed my upbringing and the lv I miss ..thankyas all all .grateful ..thankyas all
Beautiful love I once knew but now behind me and all I have is beautiful memories... I won't cry take me back..still love the song and love the memories
I have had this song in my head for years but until now I have not been able to find it. I had it on an old tape I lost back in the early nineteens. I had parts of the lyrics in my head and today I succeeded.
Minnaar stasie ek verlang terug na Lynette en Andre Nortje, Tinus en Santie, die Visagies (Hester) en Yolandi Vermeulen en natuurlik Eileen Ellisson en my ma wat toe nog geleef het!! Die tyd is verby!! Sal enige van hulle ooit hierdie stuk lees?? Dink nie so nie - Hackey Louw
Fantastic, I knew this band and spent many summers in Ireland with them. I am so happy to see you have some songs. Do you have any of the band singing. Donal was a fantastic singer as well. Many thanks
Not a double an exact copy but with only the memories he selected... Just enough to pass as me. It's not that I don't remember you, I don't know you. None of his skills only what the child had
Time for me to ask my question again... Anyone know where I can get her version of Wild Thing / Hang on Sloopy ? I used to have it on a Pop Shop (possibly Pop Shop Gold or Pop Shop Spectacular) but not sure if it is on any of her albums ?

Thank you for confirming my "suspicions" :-)
We saw her in concert in Bloemfontein when she was her in 82/83 loved her.
There was also a very successful version in Spanish by Diego Verdaguer called "Volvere", which was released in 1976.
I recall it was the Irish entry for Pop Over Europe on Radio 2 in 1982

My cousin and I toured through SA with Geraldine and her band and Liberty Mountain in 1982.

Wow, neem my terug na die vroeë 80's toe ek n jong speurder in Swakopmund was! Was darm maar lekker "sorgelose" jare gewees.
Ek sit nou in Swakop en luister die song
@@christinevisser350 Ek woon nou in Texas, VSA en MIS Swakop baie. Nog steeds my "favorite" plek in die hele wêreld.
It would be good to see a TV show performance or videoclip of Geraldine performing this song. Or a live recording. Anyone?
Beautiful love I once knew but now behind me and all I have is beautiful memories... I won't cry take me back..still love the song and love the memories
My favourite version of the 1970s Italian hit song "Tornero". New arrangement with English lyrics and beautiful singer.
Words that echo now more than ever... Take me back.. To a time....
