105.7 KOKZ brings you American Top 40 the 70’s every Saturday morning from 9 to noon. This Saturday Casey features the top songs from February 1st, 1975, it’s where I found today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 from America with “Lonely People”.
The song was the second single from their 1974 album “Holiday” and was written by the husband and wife team of Dan and Catherine Peek. the song was was written as a response to the Beatles “Eleanor Rigby” and Dan recalled being impacted by the chorus “All the lonely people: where do they all come from…where do they all belong”.
The song ended up a top 5 hit for the group and you can check out a live performance of “Lonely People” by America, today’s Forgotten 45.
