We May Never Pass This Way (Again) – Seals & Crofts (Live)

Live Soundstage May 1974

“We May Never Pass This Way (Again)” by Seals & Crofts is one of those quietly reflective songs that feels like a gentle reminder to slow down and appreciate the moment you’re in. Released in 1973, the song appeared on their album Diamond Girl, which became one of the duo’s most successful and best-known records.

Musically, the track carries Seals & Crofts’ signature soft rock sound, blending smooth harmonies with a calm, almost meditative melody. Lyrically, it focuses on the fleeting nature of life and experiences, emphasizing that moments – and connections – are often once-in-a-lifetime, so they deserve care and attention.

On the charts, “We May Never Pass This Way (Again)” performed solidly, reaching the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 and climbing even higher on the Adult Contemporary chart, where it resonated strongly with listeners. Decades later, the song still holds up as a thoughtful, understated classic, often remembered for its simple wisdom and warm, introspective tone.
