The New Seekers - Circles
Review by Yash Garg
The album Circles by New Seekers is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates soulful harmonies and catchy melodies. This band, known for their powerful vocal performances and uplifting lyrics, has truly outdone themselves on this record.
From the opening track "Circles" to the closing number "Song for You and Me," the New Seekers showcase their versatility and range as musicians. They seamlessly blend elements of folk, pop, and gospel music to create a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh.
One standout track on the album is "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing," which became a hit single and is still beloved by fans today. The song's catchy chorus and positive message of unity and peace make it a timeless classic.

Peter Doyle ❤❤❤❤
My heart throb.. Peter ❤
I was 17 when this was played, remember the music and the happy times. Life was great and full of loving. Now I'm 67 and wondering if I can afford to put the heating on this winter ! All we have left are the memories of a far, far better time..
Such a lovely song. Imagine there was just one song, of similar quality to this in the charts today. It would single handedly improve it ten fold.
Still good to listen to.
