With lyrics like, “Someday he'll come along, The man I love, And he'll be big and strong”, would not be rare for a woman to sing in the 1970’s but for a man it was very rare to see. Marsh sang this and was very open about his sexuality, although he did use a stage name in Zebedy Colt, it is still exceptionally brave in a time where America was still mainly homophobic. This opened many doors for other homosexual artists to express themselves and gave them courage. Much like Oscar Wilde opened the door for the gay community, Marsh gave gay artists a major stepping stone. “Maybe I shall meet him Sunday, Maybe Monday, maybe not, Still I'm sure to meet him one day, Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day”, this quote resonates with the 70’s because it shows patience, a characteristic shown all throughout the decade with the many peaceful protests arranged by the hippies against the Vietnam War, and with women’s rights
