Who sang

[Taupinl]

who sang the ties that bind, with lyrics, whilst the big ones get away? and

who sang the new jerusalem, with lyrics, wild rivers flow, and sons and daughters

[Mortartube]

The first one sounds like "The big ones get away" by Buffy Sainte-Marie

And artist called Keith Blake did a song called New Jerusalem. It may or may not be that one. It wasn't a chart entry

Carly Simon sang the 2nd one.

[Taupinl]

And it's called Let The River Run. Id have said earlier, but had a bit of a brain fart!
