Straying away from the piano ballad but still infused with New York soul, “My Life” from 1978’s52nd Streetwas also a relatively big hit, reaching #2 on the U.S. adult contemporary chart and #3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The song’s lyrics describe aimless Americans who go searching for their way in life. One character gives up his storybook “American” life for one of fame and glamour in California.
The other character contemplates the pros and cons of bumming around. No matter what people tell them they should do, they follow their own path.
