"So Many Paths" by Little River Band

Australian soft rockers who went by the name of Little River Band set the charts on fire in the late 70s and early 80s. The band scored six huge top 10 hits during that time, the most successful going to #3 ("Reminiscing").

The band's stylings weren't suited to the emerging techno pop sounds of the 80s and they faded away after "Playing To Win" stalled at #60 in 1985.

During their hot streak, a lot of solid tunes were recorded that didn't get their fair shake. "So Many Paths" comes from their landmark 1978 album, "Sleeper Catcher." It contains one of my favorite lyrics: "There are so many paths up the mountain, and the view from the top is still the same."
