The voices of the late"England Dan" Seals and his duo partner John Ford Coley will be reunited for the first time since 1980 fora memorable, new edition of "I'd Really Love To See You Tonight,"arriving May 8.Their classic hit celebrates its fiftieth anniversary in May 2026 and was recently ranked in the"Top 50 Love Songs of All Time"(Billboard).Written by Parker McGee, "I'd Really Love To See You Tonight" was first released in1976 and appeared on the pop / rock duo's Gold-Certified album, Nights Are Forever. Though the pair initially were hesitant to record the song, the hit marked a major turning point in their career, reaching No.1 onBillboard's Easy Listening and No. 2 on the Hot 100 charts. The monumental new track will feature an exclusive music video with never-before-seen clips of Seals and Coley together once again, honoring the duo's most popular tune. "Some songs seem to take on a life of their own," says John Ford Coley, adding, "the song 'I'd Really Love to See You Tonight' seems to be one of those iconic songs. Dan and I have not sung together since 1980, and it's interesting that the song that appears to have brought us back together was the one that launched our career as a duo. It never occurred to me that this song would still be as big today as it was 50years ago."

Arroe Collins has spent a lifetime immersed in the creative currents of arts, music, and history, and in Arroe Collins View From The Writing Instrument, he channels that experience into a unique auditory space. This isn't a lecture or a simple interview series; it's a gathering where the processes behind storytelling, drama, and fiction are pulled into the light. Each episode feels like a conversation in a quiet corner, exploring how artists and thinkers translate the noise of the world into something meaningful-a song, a novel, a play, a historical perspective. You'll hear the textures of the creative life, the struggles and breakthroughs that rarely make it to a finished book jacket or album liner. Arroe’s own philosophy, "I don't write to right. I write so that others might," sets the tone for these discussions, emphasizing connection over correction. The podcast lives in the fertile ground between knowing a work and knowing its author, offering listeners a chance to sit alongside the writing instrument itself. It’s for anyone who has ever wondered where the words and melodies actually come from, and how they find their way to us.
