I get fooled every time with this song at the start. I always think it's that "Breaking Us In Two" song by Joe Jackson.

Love the "Carry on Till Tomorrow". In fact, I uploaded it... seems Rebecca didn't.

No wonder this band sounded so "Beatlesque".

Not my favorite Badfinger hit. It's amazing - Bill is on a bit of a Badfinger binge lately.

Sorry, this is so entirely AM FM.
Another cut, unknown, from the BF LP would have been appropriate.

I agree, but since I don't listen to AM FM I'm glad it's here.

A: Pete Ham is credited with writing the song, though both George Harrison and Todd Rundgren produced the album so who knows how much influence they had in lyrics & music especially since it was Paul McCartney who wrote Badfingers breakout hit "Come and Get It"

This is pretty good, but they had a lot of better material. May try to upload some that is less pop-oriented.

Classic template for power pop. Badfinger really wrote great songs, despite being a train-wreck of a band in other ways. With the Raspberries and Big Star, they really kept alive, in the prog-infested early '70's, the Beatles' notion of what a pop-rock song should sound like. Long enough for folks ranging from Dwight Twilley to Elvis Costello to pick up on it in the late '70's and reinvent smart pop all over again. "Day After Day" is a lovely, wistful, powerful pop song that thoroughly deserves the positive memories it evokes.

Am I the only one who hears Neil Diamond's "Coming to America" in those little piano bits?

yup... STILL a 1.

WHY is this song in the RP playlist? It sucked back then; it sucks now.

RIP Pete Ham.

This still feels good, more than three decades later.

Man, I had no use for this song then, and hearing it again only confirms my distaste for it.

Nice to hear some Badfinger on RP! Would be great to hear some more, especially some of the lesser known tracks. Badfinger's output was spotty, but when they hit the mark, they really nailed it. Wish You Were Here (last LP with Pete Ham) was quite outstanding.

My college roommate and I had a running joke that if you were listening to a classic rock song and you didn't know who the band was, it was Badfinger.

I've always enjoyed Badfinger and their simple music. George and Paul seemed to influence the most no?
