In this song it appears that you have mostly whoever was providing the voice for David before he began singing regularly but he does sing a few words.



It was suggested that this was his first vocal test to see if he could really do well at lead singing.


I do have to wonder why they wouldn't allow him to sing the whole song.

I always thought that was a pretty song. I bought The Partridge Family Album when it first came out and some of the songs were sung by The Love Generation on that album.

A few of the songs on the album feature a choral pop sound by The Love Generation, who were the original voices of The Partridge Family before it was discovered that David Cassidy could sing. They were John and Tom Bahler, Ron Hicklin and Jackie Ward. Shortly after production on the first album and TV show began David Cassidy was promoted by Wes Farrell to lead singer. From that point on they provided the backup vocals for all of the Partridge Family albums, along with Shirley Jones and assorted other singers.

I guess I do not remember others singing for them. Here is a working link of the song.
