“Baby’s so high that shes skying, yeah she’s flying afraid to fall, I’ll tell you why Baby’s crying, cuz’ she’s dying arent we all”.
The greatest person to fight world hunger died in 1982 God bless Harry Chapin.

We always seem to loose the great ones. For those of you who never saw him live, you mised a true event. Small shows,college or University, most times. Remarkable storyteller & missed by many.
Wow. Cried watching this. Truly a national treasure; in league with Don McLean, Tom Petty, or [insert really great singer/ songwriter here]. Outstanding.
harry is the greatest and will always be missed.
I love this song
a follow up was disaster. not neccessary. I have an Idea!! how about a sequel to piano man where Billy joel plays a song in another bar. or Rocket man where he goes to another planet???? I dont think so
I thought Tom wrote Circle. But I amy be wrong!
we all can relate to this tune in some way or another. dating the first girl and how you reacted though you may not want to recall but it happened.
funny…life happens and you recall it and with a tune like this it lets you recall it how it happened.
What a BRILLIANT performance … the song writing is UNbelievable!
WOW!
the bass player is BIG JOHN WALLACE
Amazing bass work. This is the first footage I have seen of Harry Chapin.
Who is the bass player?
one of the worst tragedies in American Histoy IMO
What an excellent channel you have created. This is some of the best footage of Harry. Great job….Check out “Living In This Song” a song dedicated to everyone who was changed by the life and music of Harry Chapin….oh yea and Keep The Change

thanks! he really was a great singer.
No he died in a car crash, either engine problems, or heart attack. Anyways he crashed into a semi and the gas tank engulfed in flames and he was taken to a hospital and he died.
i hate to ask this, but didnt he kill himself?
Sorry Lew just realized this was your page…tryin to get it out to as many Chapin fans as I can.Cheers!
“H. Chapin, J. Denver, J. Croce, J. Lennon all taken from us way too soon. Imagine the things that they could have created during the last 20 years had they lived. Thanks for the posting and thank God for YouTube a place where we can remember and reminisce.” i agreed 100%. nice to see someone else agrees with me.
