"Remember When the Music" is a song written and performed by Harry Chapin, from the album Sequel.
The song was written as a tribute to Allard K. Lowenstein, a former New York congressman who was shot and killed in 1980.
Chapin stated that the song became more apparent when John Lennon was killed the same year.
It consists of a reprise, which is an acoustic take on the song.
The second version is the regular song, that was released as a single.
