There are so many songs that are out there everywhere then all of a sudden they disappear and you only hear from them very rarely that they can create a sense of nostalgic for you, the listener. So roll up and welcome to Forgotten Songs where we celebrate these forgotten wonders.

Breeze On By – Donny Osmond

Today we are going to look at a song by a well known musician that I didn’t even know existed until I saw it on an Instagram page highlighting tracks from the early noughties and I thought it would be fun to discuss.

Breeze On By was a single that was released by Donny Osmond in December 2004. It was written by Donny Osmond, Eliot Kennedy, Gary Barlow and Bobby Wornack. The song was also released on the record label Universal and was from the album What I Meant To Say.

The single might sound vaguely familiar because it was influenced by George Benson’s song ‘Breezin’ which was originally released in the seventies.

The song did relatively well in the United Kingdom charts and went in at position number 8. It was also the first British top ten for the musician in thirty years.
