RIP, half of England Dan & John Ford Coley

One of them died, but I've already forgotten which one in the time it's taken to post this.

Wrong Seals.
This is Dan Seals, known as England Dan (duo with John Ford Coley). His brother Jim Seals was half of Seals and Crofts.

You know, hearing the name Seals and Crofts makes me think of a law firm.

 

Re: RIP, half of Seals & Crofts

DAMMIT! "I'd Really Love To See You Tonight" is one of my favorite songs.

You might think about changing the thread title ...

Jack Dreyfus has also died.

He was really good in "The Goodbye Girl."

 

Sad to hear this. I really came to love a lot of the album cuts off their first two albums. Their hits were nice, their album cuts were even better.

Soldier in the Rain was a fantastic song. May have to cue up their Greatest Hits on my iPod in tribute.

 

Well then you shouldn't have ditched satellite radio, b/c that song airs on the 70s station about 37 times a day.

 

That song has one of the greatest mis-heard lines... "I'm not talking about moving in."... I know that's the line... I do.. but I always hear... and sing.. "I'm not talking about millenium."

 

Yeah, I have it on my iTunes. No need to pay monthly to hear crap I don't know or like. Thanks, though.

 

I thought it was "I'm not talking 'bout the linen", like they were discussing household stuff.

I don't think he says enough syllables for "I'm not talking about moving in."

 

"I'm not talkin' 'bout movin' in" is correct. When I was a kid I thought the line was "I'm not talkin' 'bout no wedding ..."
