I love that song. I once described it as what it would sound like if the BBC Radiophonic Workshop became a pop group in Swinging London circa 1967 and wrote the missing love song from the soundtrack of the movie Billion Dollar Brain. But now it's one of those songs that only reminds me of the heartbreaking loss of its unique and wonderful singer.
