To my great surprise I found a 7" single of Postcard on the internet. It was released in New Zealand. I never new this single existed. I even had to play the song to remember which one it was. As a single it might have been even better when it was called 'Wishing you were here'.
'Postcard' is a great song though, but I always thought 'Charlie and Fred' would have been great as a single to promote the album.
Any thoughts?

"Postcard" as a single ?? Really ?? That's really surprising!!
"Butterfly" is an excellent album, so any track from it would make a great flower-power single.
And "Postcard" is a choice I understand, because it has certain similarities to the great hit "Bus Stop". Some chords are the same and the rhythm and tempo is equal. And I like the choice of the title "Postcard" instead of "Wish You Were Here" because the song is a kind of "Postcard" from a distant island. And it's a unique title and we don't get confused with the Pink Floyd song or the one by Marvin, Welch & Farrar.
