For “Music Night” this evening at The Wild Reed, I share a song from my childhood – Judie Tzuke's 1979 recording, “Stay With Me Till Dawn.”
About this song, one contemporary commentator notes:
I couldn't agree more. Indeed, in terms of hauntingly beautiful songs of the 1970s, Judi Tzuke's “Stay With Me Till Dawn” is up there with Cat Stevens' “How Can I Tell You?,” Kiki Dee's “Amoureuse,” and Kate Bush's “The Man With the Child In His Eyes.”

About this song, one contemporary commentator notes:
This is still one of the most beautiful songs ever produced. It touches the soul.
I couldn't agree more. Indeed, in terms of hauntingly beautiful songs of the 1970s, Judi Tzuke's “Stay With Me Till Dawn” is up there with Cat Stevens' “How Can I Tell You?,” Kiki Dee's “Amoureuse,” and Kate Bush's “The Man With the Child In His Eyes.”
Notes Wikipedia:
Written by Tzuke and Mike Paxman and produced by John Punter, "Stay with Me Till Dawn" was Tzuke's only Australian and UK top 40 single, charting at number 8 and 16 respectively. . . . In 2002, [the song] was chosen by the British public as the thirty-ninth best song to have come out of Britain over the previous fifty years (between 1952 and 2002).
