    I think it's John Howard with "Searching for someone" but I'm not sure. Does anybody know the song?

    I have faith in people until proven otherwise...

    The A side was posted on YouTube by someone who purports to be the artist. He was very nice, signed one comment with JH, said "...we recorded the track..." and uses 1975 memorabilia as his online name..

    He may not want or is unable to post the B side, but if you provide him with your video link for identification, it might get you one step closer. So would some further communication with him.

    Am i being too naive...? WEA is one alternative... Good luck with that piece... Maybe some collector reading this thread...

    So the 45 is SATRIL HH 154 (the HH prefix i believe refers to Henry Haddaway Organization associated with Satril) Distributor :Spartan 1981

    Still, a couple of people have done some very serious and dedicated research recently (i suspect you may be one of the two) Good luck.

    Hi BlueNilefan, thanks for your answer. I am searching for months to find the song, maybe someday someone puts this B-side on Youtube, or at least 30 seconds of it, so we all know. Let's hope so. For Oldiesalive too :-)

    By the way, are there any songs from him that you are either sure of that they aren't, are possibilities, you heard, etc? With exception to the ones on youtube.

    Well, I don't like the sound of this answer. I think it's "Searching for someone" ("Walking down the street so far away to FIND SOMEBODY ELSE"). If you think it's not, than prove it!

    Default Unknown song recorded in Europe

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-H_d7sPoqg

    This was requested on here over previously, but the topic was closed without any identification. http://www.allthelyrics.com/forum/id...ng-please.html

    The song mentioned in that topic was John Howard - Searching For Someone. It turned out not to be it, and the mystery continues. The person who recorded it found the recording on an old cassette either in 1983 or 1984.

    Here are the lyrics. Someone posted them on the youtube video, I just made a few corrections regarding what I thought I heard. I feel as though this is not the full song.

    There’s a change in my mind
    Leaving today
    Maybe nothing to find
    Deep in my soul time on my side until then I fly

    Walking down the streets so far away to find somebody else
    Everyone I meet just seems to turn away
    Walking down the streets so far away to reach another sky
    Nothing never seems to mean much anyway

    Don’t know the way
    And there is nowhere to hide,
    Drifting around like a needle that flies
    Keep me in mind time after time before I fly high

    Walking down the streets so far away to reach another sky
    Nothing never seems to mean much anyway

    Walking down the streets so far away to reach another sky
    Nothing never seems to mean much anyway
