Regarded
as one of the greatest love songs of all time, it was actually written for
Jim's newborn son A.J., now a pop/rock artist in his own right, for the
1972 album You Don't Mess Around With
Jim. Croce's premature
death in a plane crash, at the pinnacle of his career, plus the song's
inclusion in the ABC-TV movie She
Lives! helped "Time in a Bottle" reach #1 in December
1973. It continues to receive
frequent airplay to this day.
