Biography

Progressive rock band. Formed in London, England in late 1969. Rare Bird was originally formed around the principle of keyboard-dominated progressive rock, shunning the use of guitars. Their eponymous debut album achieved critical success. Releasing five albums in total, those albums never achieved commercial success, although the single Sympathy sold over a million globally, topping charts in France and Italy. They dissolved in early 1975, victims of a lack of recognition in their own country.

LYRICS

Now when you climb into your bed tonight And when you lock and bolt the door Just think of those out in the cold and dark 'cos there's not enough love to go round And sympathy is what we need my friend And sympathy is what we need And sympathy is what we need my friend 'cos there's not enough love to go round No, there's not enough love to go round Now half the world hurts the other half And half the world has all the food And half the world lies down and quietly starves 'cos there's not enough love to go round And sympathy is what we need my friend And sympathy is what we need And sympathy is what we need my friend 'cos there's not enough love to go round No, there's not enough love to go round. ©1968 [Korrektur by "Uncle", [email protected]] Anm.: dto.
