Written By: lebeiw15 on 04/30/02 at 05:42 p.m.

Was this song from a tv show, movie, or popular somewhere else??? This is killing me!! The tune is so familiar!  I just heard it on the radio the other nite and I remember hearing it somewhere.  Or am I just nuts?

it was really overplayed in the 70s, so maybe you've just heard it a million times  ;D

I don't really remember it being played in anything though

The Foo fighters did a remake in 1998. it was the B side to thier My Hero single.  It was played on the rock stations here a couple times.  It was also in the movie "Good Will Hunting"

This song gets played three times a day on the 'classic hits' station here in Sydney. Makes you wonder what 'program directors' actually do.
