I LOVE YOUR MUSIC-YOUR THE BEST! revelation | Reviewer: TM ------ About the song Lost Without Your Love performed by David Gates I recently heard 'Lost without your love' on YouTube and was blown away! It took me back to those days as a lonely stuttering youth devastated by a humiliating rejection from a gorgeous school girl sweetheart. I never got over it for at least 5 years, no other song brought back that intense heartache as if to exorcise the pain and send it away to a dark deep chasm! Deeply moving and tangible in emotional effect.

Musicaly yours with respect : Bluewave Nantes FRANCE http://myspace.com/bluewavemusic I remember it well. | Reviewer: Sandra ------ About the song Suite: Clouds, Rain performed by David Gates Suite: Clouds, Rain..... As a flight attendant; this masterpiece composed and recorded by David, became my 'theme' song in a spiritually, gentle way. I remember being at an airport one very early morning, and heard a P A calling out for "David Gates." I so deeply wanted to search it out, to have the opportunity to tell David...thank you. It was time to board my 727, and perform the cabin preflight. Assigned to work in what turned out to be an 'empty' first class cabin; I sat in a passenger seat; looked out into the 'Clouds' and once again.......understood. Besides 'Aubrey'... 'Clouds' has secured a gentle place within my heart; 'forever.' I thank you, David Gates,.....deeply.

Having a broken heart! David Gates always knows how to write and sing songs that are so true to life and his ability to write what is happening with broken hearts is spot on! Coming to terms with the pain of splitting up and trying to move on when everything reminds you of your last love.
