They played the hit "Without You" to death when Nilsson released it. But I think it holds up today. It was a one take recording in the studio.
I was watching the documentary "Who is Harry Nilsson and Why is Everybody Talkin' 'bout him" on Amazon Prime Video a few months ago. An interesting perspective of the man and his music.
I didn't realize until watching that video that his mega hit "Without You" was actually a cover, originally done by the band "Badfinger". I had always thought that Nilsson wrote "Without You".
I also didn't know about Nilsson's relationship with John Lennon. That didn't surprise me, but I was surprised that I never knew about them being friends.
