Halfway To Paradise
Billy Fury
Halfway To Paradise is a classic pop big-ballad with a massive orchestral backing to elevate it. Fury鈥檚 may not have been the best voice in the world, but its plaintive tone struck just the right note for this song鈥檚 theme of a love that remains 鈥渟o near, yet so far away鈥.
