John Hunter "Tragedy"

My Uncle plays drums on this track ❤

I found it!❤

Took my forever to find this song. Thought I was dreaming it.

This was one of those songs I had to put a blank cassette in the tape player, and hot record and play at the same time because they played it on the radio. 🤣🤣 I haven’t thought about this song in years, and I can’t believe I found it! Wow. I’m OLD.

The actress who play his secretary looks an awful lot like the actress from A-Ha's 'Take On Me'. Roughly the same time frame given both releases. Any ideas or input? :)

I want cd

RIP

my old favourite

In the end finally he found another girl 🤭

Don’t bet on blondes 👱‍♀️

Wasn't this bigger in Britain than in the US?

That actor at the end, is that Bruce Jenner?

I saw him open for Tommy Shaw 36 years ago tonight at Harper college.

WOW. I was going through some old cassettes of mine, and this was on there. What a great song. Totally forgot about it. How does a guy write a great song like this and just vanish. If anyone has control over this, please release it to Spotify.

I heard this song on the radio only once or twice in the latter half of 1984, when I was in 8th grade. I always remembered the piano chords and the line “every day is just another page in this tragedy,” something I’ve found myself saying as an adult during harder times. I don’t know WHY I didn’t try entering that line before!

song blows

Is the album available on CD?

Who else is listening to this in 2020?!

I found his 2nd LP 1986's More Than Meets The Eye in a used Record Store - Record Heaven in San Diego for 7 cents March 3rd 1995 - Love it to death! Have yet to here his 1st LP this song is on!.

This song is one of the greatest songs that was released in the 80's its beautiful I dont know why it never became more a classic people just dont got good ears for beautiful music when that piano comes in my gosh ,,,just amazing song loved it when I first heard it still love it .

Hard to believe he sang heavy rock with the Hounds

Love you soooo much and miss you terribly momma. Rest in paradise love janny. Mom's love is forever.

Loved this on back in '85. Still own it. Initially I thought it was The Stones or Peter Wolf! Buy Jon was very talented in his own right. Is any of his other stuff available?

2020?

Im so doing a metal cover of this... love you John hunter!!! Every Day Is Just A Tragedy 😘

#39, 1984.

Thought this was actually Peter Wolf from J. Geils Band. Good tune.

He had a great voice. Underrated for sure.

I love this song! Brings back memories.

This is the song when your just missing him😕😂🙌 great song

I love a happy ending.

I was looking thru Billboard's Archive of 1984 songs on the charts for DEC 22 and saw this at number 72 and I didn't quite remember it from 9th grade. Well here I am and wow! I remember now and I haven't heard this gem I bet since December 1984. What a great lil' tune. Just makes me miss the 80s even more than I already do. Remember how awesome life was and America was in the 80s?!

2018???

When I first heard this song, I thought it was Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones. Good song.

Great song , probably Leo Sayer`s brother ?

Que barbaro!!!! El piano suena sencional!! The Piano Sounds Excellent!!!

Can't find this song on spotify

Best song he ever done.

kaset di rumah ketika SD

i love this song.wish it be the old yrs.

entered Billboard Dec 8, 1984 .. reached #39

Love this tune. Thank you for posting. I wonder why you never hear this on the radio anymore.

:'( 💔

I had the album on Vinyl. I liked "Valentine" as much as this one.

i love this song.i had 25 yrs of drama from people.but it is finally over.

A great song and video done with humor and talent. John Hunter, to me, has one of the more lighthearted videos to come out of the MTV age and should be proud of his creative contributions.

it's weird hearing this...John Hunter was a friend of my mom's friend. I was 13? when this came out. I still dig the tune!

impecable seleccion !!!!!!

does anyone know if this song is available on cd or mp3 ?
