A power ballad originally composed by members of the Welsh rock group Badfinger and first released on their 1970 album, the song has been recorded by numerous artists. Harry Nilsson's 1971 version became an international number one hit, as did a later rendition by Mariah Carey in 1994. Nilsson's version was subsequently included in Rolling Stone's 2021 compilation of the 500 greatest songs of all time.
