This Is A Very Sad Phyllis Hyman Interview(About The Song "Old Friend")

I got teary eyed watching this. No matter how strong she pretended to be, she was a real emotional person:

"Old Friend" is one of the beautiful songs ever recorded.There's a real sadness to it.

Yes,I've tried to live my life without you
Knowing I had lost my closest friend
Though I fell in love from time to time
Knowing I would never find
the kind of love I had when you were mine


Everything about this song---the lyrics,the arrangement,the production,the vocals---is just PERFECT! Truly one of the most underrated R&B singles of the 80s.After Phyllis' death,it's sometimes hard for me to listen to it sad It's really emotional!

I rarely listen to that song anymore.
The love of my life is my ex and my best friend
and that song is just tooooo much most of the time.
I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think.
