“Brand New Kind of Love” was listed as one of singer Johnny Nash’s favorite songs in a 11/9/75 “Family Weekly” article. “Childhood-1949” was the first song on actor Burt Reynolds’ album, “Ask Me What I Am,” produced by Bobby. The April 14, 1973, issue of Billboard magazine included a feature on using television advertising. Chuck Fox, assistant director of merchandising for United Artists Records, “cited a recent campaign in Atlanta, Ga., as a prime example of the label’s results in the field. The television campaign revolved around singer Bobby Goldsboro’s latest product and was tied-in with the artist’s local television program. Sales figures in the market for Goldsboro’s disk “Brand New Kind of Love” had a 200 to 300 percent increase...Sixty-second promotion spots were used on Goldsboro’s show for four weeks and were supported by local consumer print advertising...The tie-in of promotion spots proved to be an important spring board for in-store appearances by the artist and tie-in displays provided local retailers.”

If I could love you, if you would let me love you We’d have a brand new kind of love - “Brand New Kind of Love” Let me love you for tonight And when I leave you in the morning I will leave no strings behind to tie you down - “Let Me Love You for Tonight” I searched through the night While some dude held her tight Turned her head with some bread and a bed full of lies And then he was gone - “Birmingham Lucy”

Nightmare fears and Grandma’s tears And gingerbread to bake me Where was I when childhood died And manhood came to take me? - “Childhood-1949” I will write a song for children And if my dream comes true Maybe someday we’ll grow up to be children, too - “A Song for Children” When the years have turned our hair to grey We’ll look back on a life of happy days And I pray, long as there’s a night and day I will always stay by your side - “By Your Side”
