“People In Love” is a rare hit from 1977, done by British band 10cc, taken from “Deceptive Bends” (1977), the first album after the departure of Godley and Creme. Album yielded three hit singles, “The Things We Do For Love” (UK No. 6, US No. 5), “Good Morning Judge” (UK No. 5, US No. 69) and “People In Love” (US No. 40). Stewart later said he and Gouldman felt vindicated by its success: “I was out to prove also that we could write a hit album without Kevin and Lol … we did!”
In 1982 American blue-eyed soul/pop singer and backing vocalist Joyce Berry covered their 1977 original on her second album, “Believe It Or Not”.
This is the female version of the Eric Stewart & Graham Gouldman composition with gender changed from 'her' to 'his' and from 'she' to 'he' where she sings in a lower register, lower than Eric Stewart from British pop group 10cc.
When American blue-eyed soul/pop singer and backing vocalist Joyce Berry was younger back in 1977, she heard a pop song on the radio, called, "People In Love" by British pop band 10cc she would be more familiar with and then also bought both a small 45 RPM single and a sheet music of the same song, so she had to learn the words to that song over and over again until she was satisfied with it, so she decided to sing it lower in her smoky alto than band member Eric Stewart in his tenor.
Since Joyce is a straightforward pop/soul singer with a soft ballad voice in a real authentic style, she moves away from the Godley & Creme artistic, abstract art-rock stuff, progressive rock, avant-garde, rock opera and experimental stuff when she said "No, I don't like the abstract art-rock stuff of Godley & Creme because I find it bland and boring that lacks soul. I don't like it. I prefer Eric Stewart & Graham Gouldman better that have more soul than that when they made such real authentic pop music that I'm always crazy about.", so she decided to focus more on some of the straightforward Stewart & Gouldman pop stuff that she is more comfortable with.

"Bus Stop" is a song recorded and released as a single by the British pop band The Hollies in 1966. It reached No.5 in the UK Singles Chart.[4] It was the Hollies' first US hit,[5] reaching No.5 on the Billboard charts in September 1966.
Background
"Bus Stop" was written by UK songwriter and future 10cc member Graham Gouldman, who also penned major hits for The Yardbirds ("For Your Love") and Herman's Hermits ("No Milk Today"), as well as The Hollies' first venture into the U.S. top 40 with "Look Through Any Window".
In a 1976 interview Gouldman said the idea for the song had come while he was riding home from work on a bus. The opening lines were written by his father, playwright Hyme Gouldman. Graham Gouldman continued with the rest of the song in his bedroom, apart from the middle-eight, which he finished while riding to work – a men's outfitters – on the bus the next day.[6]

"Look Through Any Window" is a song by the British beat group The Hollies. It was the first American top 40 hit for them, peaking at No. 32 in January 1966.[citation needed] It reached No. 4 in their native country and in Canada it made #3 in the RPM Magazine charts. Written by the professional songwriter Graham Gouldman and Charles Silverman, it features a distinctive 12-string guitar riff, vocal harmonies and Bobby Elliott’s drumming. They also recorded a version in French (titled "Regardez par des fenêtres") that was not officially released at the time and was included on the 1988 compilation Rarities.
First released as a single in the UK, it was included in the US version of their 1965 album Hollies titled Hear! Here! by their US label, Imperial Records.
The B-side, "So Lonely", later included on Hollies and Hear! Here!, was recorded by the Everly Brothers and released in July 1966 on their Two Yanks in England album.
Cover versions
A version was later recorded by the American group Gary Lewis & the Playboys for their 1966 album Hits Again!.
The Serbian beat band, Elipse recorded a version entitled Pogledaj kroz prozor in 1966 in Serbian.

"No Milk Today" is a song that was written by Graham Gouldman and originally recorded by British pop band Herman's Hermits. It was first released as a single by the Mancunian group in the UK in October 1966 and, with the B-side "My Reservation's Been Confirmed", enjoyed chart success, peaking at No. 7. Although not released as a single in the US ("Dandy" was released in its place with the same B-side), it was popular enough to become a moderate hit when it was released there as the B-side to "There's a Kind of Hush", reaching No. 35 in 1967 (the A-side reaching No. 4). It was also a major hit in many European countries.
Music and lyrics
The song, which is dominated by its downcast reflective verses in A-minor and neatly complemented by its interjecting upbeat chorus in A-major, was the second major song Gouldman wrote for Herman's Hermits (the previous being "Listen People", a US #3).[1] The lyrics refer to the practice (common at the time) of milkmen delivering fresh milk to residential houses each morning; the love interest of the song's protagonist has just moved out, so the household needs less milk and the notice in front of his house instructing the milkman not to leave the usual bottle of milk today, while seeming mundane to passers-by ("how could they know just what this message means?") symbolizes the breakup to the singer himself ("the end of all my dreams").[2] Gouldman wrote this song initially for The Hollies, after he saw a "no milk today" notice outside a friend's house one day, and his father observed that this could have various reasons.[3] In a recent interview, lead singer Peter Noone credited John Paul Jones' production of the song which included the ingenious introduction of chimes In the chorus.[citation needed]
The single is significant because it was the first track for which the band employed a string section.[2]
Recordings
Later the song was recorded by Gouldman himself as the sole single (released with "The Impossible Years") from his 1968 debut album The Graham Gouldman Thing and, in 2006, it was included on the compilation album Greatest Hits ... And More, released by Gouldman's own band 10cc.
The song was extensively used in a 2009 commercial campaign for the Norwegian milk company Tine. It was also used for a commercial of the Dutch milk company Coberco in the '90s.
The Spanish rendering "Todo Cambió" was recorded in 1967 by Lita Torelló (es).
No Milk Today has also been included in the official Sons of Anarchy soundtrack, covered by frequent soundtrack contributor The Forest Rangers, featuring folk singer Joshua James. The cover appeared in the first episode of season 3.

"For Your Love" is a 1965 single written by future 10cc member Graham Gouldman and performed by the British Invasion band The Yardbirds. It peaked at number three on UK Singles Chart and became their highest charting single in the U.S., peaking at number six.
Gouldman wrote the song at the age of 19 while working by day in a gentlemen's outfitters near Salford Docks and playing by night with the semi-professional Manchester band the Mockingbirds. He said: "I was sleeping most of the time because I'd been gigging with the Mockingbirds the night before, and then during the day when I'd got any spare time I'd write in the shop. I used to shut up the shop at lunch time and sit in the back writing."
Gouldman cited The Beatles as his influence by saying "We went down to Denmark Street and went round all the publishers trying to find a song . . . we didn't get any songs that we liked or we weren't given any songs period and the Beatles had started and I thought 'well, I'm gonna really have a crack at song-writing.' I had dabbled a bit, but they were really my inspiration and gave me and I think a lot of other people the courage to actually do it. We all wanted to be like the Beatles. I wrote two songs and the record company we were with turned down one of the songs. The song they turned down was 'For Your Love', which eventually found its way to the Yardbirds."
Gouldman's manager, Harvey Lisberg, was so impressed by the song he told Gouldman they should offer it to the Beatles. "I said, 'I think they're doing alright in the songwriting department, actually'," Gouldman recalled. Undeterred, Lisberg gave a demo of the song to publisher Ronnie Beck of Feldman's, who took it to the Hammersmith Odeon, where the Beatles were performing. By coincidence the Yardbirds were also performing on a Christmas show at the venue and Beck played the song to their manager, Giorgio Gomelsky, and the band.
In 1965 The Mockingbirds began a regular warm-up spot for BBC TV's Top of the Pops, transmitted from Manchester. Gouldman recalled: "There was one strange moment when The Yardbirds appeared on the show doing 'For Your Love'. Everyone clamoured around them -- and there I was just part of an anonymous group. I felt strange that night, hearing them play my song."
Despite the success "For Your Love" gave The Yardbirds, it signaled the departure of guitarist Eric Clapton, who played on the track with strong reluctance. Dismayed with the group's shift from R&B to pop, Clapton left the Yardbirds to join John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers.
A cover version by Peter Blakely is featured in the 1990 film "The Crossing".
The song was also recorded by Herman's Hermits, Humble Pie, The Greg Kihn Band, Nils Lofgren, Fleetwood Mac, Chilly, The Ace Kefford Stand, Gary Lewis and the Playboys, and Graham Gouldman himself.
Led Zeppelin played it several times during early concert tours between 1968 and 1969 which is audible on bootlegged material.
Krishna Das performs a kirtan version titled "Narayana/For Your Love" on his 2010 album Heart as Wide as the World.
The song was featured in the 1998 film Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and in the 2009 film The Boat That Rocked. The song was also performed by Chaka Khan and Michael McDonald as the opening theme song for the sitcom of the same name.

"Heart Full of Soul" is a 1965 single by the English rock band The Yardbirds. It was written by Graham Gouldman, who would later have a successful career as a member of 10cc. It charted in the United States at number nine and at number two in the United Kingdom. The song makes an early use of the fuzz box by guitarist Jeff Beck during the guitar solo. Originally, a sitar was going to be used, in keeping with the "Eastern-exotic" atmosphere of the song, but the sound was too thin, and eventually Beck produced a sitar-like effect on the electric guitar. An outtake exists, with the sitar part intact. [1] The song is also known to being one of the firsts of the Indian-influenced genre raga rock and as the first pop song in the British rhythm and blues scene to feature the sitar/drone.[2][3]
The B-side of the UK, US, German, Italian, and Irish releases was "Steeled Blues" written by Keith Relf and Jeff Beck.
In one way or another, all three of The Yardbirds' key guitarists were involved with "Heart Full of Soul". Although it is Beck that plays on the song, the US single was released with a picture sleeve erroneously showing the Eric Clapton line-up. A March 1968 appearance on the music show Upbeat featured the final line-up with Jimmy Page miming to the record.
"Heart Full of Soul" appears on the 1965 compilation album, Having a Rave Up. It was featured heavily in the 2010 film London Boulevard. The song was recorded in April 20, 1965 in Advision Studios and released in June 4, 1965 in the UK.[3][4][5]
A version was also recorded by Chris Isaak and released as a single in 1987. Canadian rock band Rush also recorded a version on their 2004 album, Feedback.

Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river
Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea
You lay your bets
And then you pay the price; the things we do for love
Communication is the problem to the answer
You've got her number and your hand is on the phone
The weather's turned
And all the lines are down; the things we do for love
Chorus:
Like walking in the rain and the snow
When there's nowhere to go
And you're feeling like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up
Bridge:
Ooh, you made me love you
Ooh, you've got a way
Ooh, you had me crawling up the wall
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Bridge
A compromise would surely help the situation
Agree to disagree but disagree to part
When after all
It's just a compromise of the things we do for love
The things we do for love (The things we do for love)
(repeat and fade)
I gave you all that I had to give,
I swore without you I'd never live,
The greatest love that had ever been,
Cooled off and that was a sin.
There'll be a time when you'll regret,
And curse the day that we ever met,
You'll pay the price that a sinner pays,
And go to hell for your thieving ways.
You stole my love,
You stole my love.
I thought this time I'd found the one,
I was a fool you led me on,
It cut me deep it made me scream,
Get ready for your darkest dream.
All is pure to the pure,
All is sure to those in the web of love,
To those in the web of love,
I don't know when but it will come,
Revenge is sweet it will be done.
You'll pay the price that a sinner pays,
And go to hell for your thieving ways,
All is pure to the pure,
All is sure to those in the web of love,
All is pure to the pure,
All is sure to those in the web of love,
To those in the web of love.
You stole my love,
You stole my love.
Sick at heart and lonely,
Deep in dark despair.
Thinking one thought only
"Where is she, tell me where?"
And if she says to you
She don't love me,
Please give her my message.
Tell her of my plea.
And I know
That if she had me back again,
I would never make her sad.
I've got a heart full of soul.
She's been gone such a long time,
Longer than I can bear.
But if she says she wants me,
Tell her that I'll be there.
And if she says to you
She don't love me,
Please give her my message.
Tell her of my plea.
And I know
That if she had me back again,
I would never make her sad.
I've got a heart full of soul.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give you everything and more, and that's for sure.
For your love.
I'd bring you diamond rings and things right to your door.
For your love.
To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love, for your love,
I would give the stars above.
For your love, for your love,
I would give you all I could.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give the moon if it were mine to give.
For your love.
I'd give the stars and the sun 'fore I live.
For your love.
To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
Chorus:
There is a place where we can go
And no one cares just what you know
Or what you wear
I'm gonna take you there
You can go there too
You can go there
You can go there
To the part of town where everybody gathers round
You know that everybody there
They don't even have a care
Repeat Chorus
You can go there too
You can go there
Where the lights are oh so low
And no one cares
Just what you know
Or who you are
I'm gonna take you there
Where the lights won't shine too brightly
Everybody gathers round
You know that everybody there
They don't even have a care
Repeat Chorus
No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why
How could they know just what this message means?
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know the palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only
Just two up two down
No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day
As music played the faster did we dance
We felt it both at once, the start of our romance
How could they know just what this message means?
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Becomes a shrine when I think of you only
Just two up two down
No milk today, my love has gone away
The bottle stands forlorn, a symbol of the dawn
No milk today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why
How could they know just what this message means?
The end of my hopes, the end of all my dreams
How could they know a palace there had been
Behind the door where my love reigned as queen
No milk today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Oh, all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Oh, all that's left is a place dark and lonely
A terraced house in a mean street back of town
Look through any window yeah, what do you see?
Smilin' faces all around rushin' through the busy town
movin' on their way
Walkin' down the highways and the by-ways
(Where do they go) movin' on their way
People with their shy ways and their sly ways
Oh you can see the little children all around
Oh you can see the little ladies in their gowns when you
Look through any window yeah, any time of day
See the drivers on the roads pullin' down their heavy loads
movin' on their way
Drivin' down highways and the by-ways
(Where do they go) movin' on their way
Drivers with their shy ways and their sly ways
Oh you can see the little children all around
Oh you can see the little ladies in their gowns when you
Look through any window yeah, what do you see?
Smiling faces all around rushin' through the busy town
Movin' on their way
Movin' on their way
Movin' on their way
There comes a time
When a father must say
To his daughter, my dear
I'll show you the way
These are the impossible years
A girl must endure, adrift on the ocean
Left with her unspeakable fears
The torture of doubt and pent up emotion
New temptations, strange sensations
A great new world for exploration
She has the impossible years to bear
When does the young bud come to flower
It's petals aflame with colour exciting
When does the one Sun choose the hour
To change the green shoot to beauty inviting
Girls are growing and without knowing
They're the seeds that we've been sowing
We'll help the impossible years go by
Girls are growing, without knowing
They're the seeds that we've been sowing
We'll help the impossible years go by
I'm not in love, so don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong
Don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love, no, no, it's because..
I like to see you, but then again
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you
Don't make a fuss
Don't tell your friends about the two of us
I'm not in love
No, no, it's because..
I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lying there
So don't you ask me to give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no, no, it's because..
Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time
Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you'll wait a long time
(I'm not in love, so don't forget it)
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
(And just because I call you up)
Don't get me wrong
Don't think you've got it made
(I'm not in love, I'm not in love)
I'm not in love, baby, no, no, it's just because
Girl, it's all because we stand worlds apart
[Lead Vocal Ad-Lib to fade]
People in love do funny things
Walk under buses and burn their wings
People like us do nothing right
Talk to the ceiling into the night
Look at the smile in his eyes
I knew I was right in my bones
I feel the turning of wheels as it grows
Look at my face in his eyes
Am I right? Am I wrong?
He's given me butterflies all along
Chorus:
Ooh, sitting alone in the dark
Ooh, feeling you close to me
We're in a dream
But the hands on the clock seem to know
Tell me (us) it's time to go
People in love play silly games
Running in circles and everywhere
People like us can make believe
Love is forever and I'll never be
Repeat Chorus
Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say
Please share my umbrella
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows
Under my umbrella
All that summer we enjoyed it
Wind and rain and shine
That umbrella, we employed it
By August, she was mine
Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop
Sometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought
Other people stared as if we were both quite insane
Someday my name and hers are going to be the same
That's the way the whole thing started
Silly but it's true
Thinkin' of a sweet romance
Beginning in a queue
Came the sun the ice was melting
No more sheltering now
Nice to think that that umbrella
Led me to a vow
Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop
Sometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought
Other people stared as if we were both quite insane
Someday my name and hers are going to be the same
Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say
Please share my umbrella
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows
Under my umbrella
All that summer we enjoyed it
Wind and rain and shine
That umbrella, we employed it
By August, she was mine
We made this compilation album, called, "Tribute to Stewart & Gouldman", which they are Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman (the next John Lennon and Paul McCartney from The Beatles long before Chris Difford & Glenn Tillbrook from the British pop band Squeeze), who were members from popular British groups, such as 10CC, Wayne Fontana & The Mindbenders, Mockingbirds, Hotlegs, Jerry Lee and the Staggerlees, The Emperors of Rhythm, The Whirlwinds and Doctor Father, for a cause of blindness as part of the eye donor awareness, since Eric Stewart himself lost his eye during the 1979 car crash. As far as I'm concerned, we're not huge fans of 10CC, but we're big pop music fans of their only 2 pop hits, "I'm Not In Love" and "The Things We Do For Love" as a two-hit wonder. When I was in my childhood years and also in my pre-teenage years, I was a backing singer, joining a decent family of other backing singers singing together in harmony in a straightforward manner on those 3 Stewart/Gouldman compositions of "People In Love", remade in 1982 by blue-eyed soul/pop singer and backing vocalist Joyce Berry, "The Things We Do For Love" remade in that same year by American pop singer and backing vocalist Karen West and "I'm Not In Love", remade in 1987 by American white soul singer and backing vocalist Dennis Englewood, where the irrelevant "Be-quiet-big-boys-don't-cry" part is omitted. And when we did those 3 decent, squeaky clean songs, written by those 2 guys from 10CC, I love the way we sang the "ooh" part in a soothing, nicer way, like "Ooh, you made me love you/Ooh, you've got a way/Ooh, you had me crawling up the wall" in "The Things We Do For Love", "Ooh, sitting alone in the dark /Ooh, feeling you close to me" in the first half of the chorus in "People In Love" and "Ooh, you'll wait a long time for me/Ooh, you'll wait a long time" twice in a row in "I''m Not In Love". On this compilation album, we also added more songs that were related to Eric and Graham, done by Glyn Geoffrey Ellis, better known as Wayne Fontana, Graham Gouldman himself, The Mindbenders, Gary Lewis & The Playboys, Herman's Hermits, David Grundy, better known as Dave Berry, The Yardbirds and The Mockingbirds.
