A friend who's looking for movie theme music asked me whether I could identify a song both of us remember from way back when. Unfortunately, neither of us know its title or the singer. Some of the lyrics go something like this:
1999
Will I be yours?
Will I be the one that you love?
The second line alternated between "Will you be mine?" and "Will I be yours?", and perhaps something else too. The chorus went something like "It will be a strange world without you, love", repeated several times.
I think it was a hit in South Africa in the 1970's or early 1980's, but I can't be sure whether it was popular anywhere else. It had a fairly hard-driving rock rhythm, electric guitars and drums, with a relatively slow beat.
Do you remember that song? Can you identify it? If so, please let us know in Comments.
Thanks!
Peter
Could it be "Eternity" by Brian Doerksen?

1999 by Freedom's Children, the song was covered by other groups like the Kalahari Surfers and the Brian Davidson Band.
