  • This song was a hit for Harry Nilsson in 1968 and was popularized by being part of the soundtrack in the movie Midnight Cowboy. Written by Fred Neil... it's been a long-time favorite of mine.

    After 25 years of marriage, one day my wife said "whatever we had, it's not there anymore" and left. The loss and being alone was hard to accept. When I looked in the mirror, there was no one looking back. And the lyrics of "Everybody's talking at me but I can't hear a word they're sayin' " was my life for a long while. When you see someone wandering the streets, they may be lost in the echoes of their mind.

    Absolutely amazing talent and sound, Mr. Watson! For the past few years I've been on this kick of having to learn to play and sing a song once it's stuck in my head; Everybody's Talking At Me is the most recent. This is by far the best rendition I've found on RUclips. Great work.
