Contents
The song reached number 21 on the Billboard AC charts in the US in early 1983 and number 74 in the United Kingdom: the first of the band's singles to chart in that country.
Lead vocal
The lead vocal on "Old and Wise" was performed by former Zombies vocalist Colin Blunstone. Blunstone made several appearances on Alan Parsons Project albums, but "Old and Wise" was the only single with Blunstone as lead singer to gain airplay. Blunstone later re-recorded the song for his own two-disc Best Of album, titled "Old and Wise," released in 2003.
