Precisely.
Over My Head fit right in with radio in 1975--James Taylor's
How Sweet It Is, Johnny Nash's
Tears on My Pillow, and all the other soft-pop ballads by Olivia Newton-John and Natalie Cole and the Eagles and John Denver and 10cc. There was nothing outlandish or musically odd about
Over My Head at all. In 1975, remember, most of us were still listening to AM. (I was listening to Elton John and Redbone and Tavares and Frankie Valli and KC and the Sunshine Band and the Carpenters and the Bee Gees and Captain and Tennille and Neil Sedaka. I was a blandly commercial little boy, but I sure loved
Come and Get Your Love and
It Only Takes a Minute, Girl, to Fall in Love, the two greatest songs of all Western history.
