The story behind
Air Supply recorded Having You Near Me as part of their album Lost in Love, which was released in 1980. The song has a smooth rhythm, with a melody that feels in the chest. It is one of those songs that stays in your head, with lyrics that talk about being close to someone, about feeling their presence. It is not very long, lasting just over four minutes, but in that time it tells a story that feels real. The band included it in their album, which sold a lot in the United States, although it was not released as a single. Nonetheless, they play it in their shows, as if it were part of their essence. ↓ Skip to chords
