Subject: Did I just dream this?
Written By: Gaylon on 03/03/06 at 8:51 am
I remember a song getting airplay titled "And You're Not There" (or maybe that line was just the chorus) supposedly part of the soundtrack for a remake of The War of the Worlds written by Justin Hayward (or possibly as the Bluejays). The song had narration from the movie at certain points.
Anyway I can't find anything anywhere, even the IMDb doesn't seem to list any version of the movie done in the 70's
Anybody else know what I'm talking about?

I know the song you mean. Its by Jeff somebody or other. I've got the song on CD somewhere at home
mta: I've just googled "war of the worlds" +jeff +lyrics.
It's by Jeff Wayne and it appears to be a musical. The song you want might be called The Eve of War

Thanks a lot
Actually if you scroll down (on the site I went to) it lists Justin Hayward as vocalist on "Forever Autumn" which is the song I was after
the chorus I was remembering was "now you're not here"
Thanks again. Oh, it also listed Phil Lynott (Thin Lizzy) as one of the cast

O.K. so I didn't get it exactly right but it was enough to help. :)
I probably would have got the correct title if I'd allowed myself time to ponder over it.
Glad you got it sorted anyway.
