1021 Jim Croce - Tomorrow's Gonna Be a Brighter Day

1021 Jim Croce - Tomorrow's Gonna Be a Brighter Day

I had a couple songs in mind for my pick this evening, however this one started playing through my mind whilst I was driving home. As always I took it as a sign that I should choose it, plus the reassuring nature of the song really fits my mood.
Back about 20 or so years ago I procured an 8-Track of the album You Don't Mess Around With Jim for about 5¢; it sure beat paying the $15-$20 for the CD version. Anyway, as anyone with experience with a stereo 8-Track can attest you usually had a "path" that you went through on a tape which consisted of your favourite songs. This is one of the 8-Tracks which I did not have a path, I would play all the way through; simply a very strong album. This is one of the songs in which he wrote as an apology to his wife; quite a beautiful track.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
