Probably. His other brother went under the stage name of Eden Kane. Not sure if he is still with us. I know he went to my school (some years before me) so I assume the family were local to me. |

Just checked his Wikipedia page which contradicts my information. I remember my school music teacher telling me he had taught him and I think I assumed that was at my school but on reflection I think Mr H must have taught in Croydon earlier in his career, which is where Eden Kane attended school in the late 50s. |

The song gets on my nerves too, but that's neither here nor there. It's a popular folk song with thoughtful lyrics, like 'Streets of London', which some other people can't stand. RIP Mr Sarstedt.

My romantic 8-year old mind loved the lyrics  I once looked into his other work, it was fairly innocuous. RIP Peter |

Y'know, someone told me just yesterday it was year ago, and I was shocked. Seems just a few weeks or something. |

It was right near the start of the whole "2016 sucks" thing. Then that ball just kept on rolling.... Plus he died just after his birthday. In January. Jules |

Just heard that Mike Kellie - drummer with the VIPs, Art, Spooky Tooth and The Only Ones among many others - has died, although I've not been able to find any more details anywhere.
