Yup, a real good one...or is that two.....it's a slice of jazz//prog/pop perfection...I'm sitting in my chair, looking out the window at the newly fallen snow.......and feeling very mellowed by the greatness of this wonderful song....wonderful from start to finish

Quote from: Zoltan on December 05, 2023, 07:02:28 AMThe day has taken its toll on me. I came here just to get some of my energy back, but this really needs to be heard while wearing headphones. Preferably when walking outside.

I shall revisit this one :)

Lately my walks have been shared with either The Alan Parsons Project and/or JohnBee.

Alan Parsons Project is a personal favorite of mine....

It sucks

that I can't figure out how to talk about this song....  I did really enjoy the lyrics just as a read.  I can relate.

Being an emotive person, as I am, is not easy.  There are many rewards though... and the song describes some of those... and also the ease at which we fall into the seeming grievances with things that don't go as we wish...

overall, the track has a wonderful and lovely feel... when delved into deeper it is a melancholic journey into the uncomfortable subject of feeling alone.... sometimes I am alone and feel like perfect... other times I am with a thousand people and feel alone... truthfully, these days I like being alone... and people don't like that... but I do...

I appreciate this site and songs like this John.... we connect from a very different places... even thousands of miles... that is special... thank you for letting me in there! 
Merry Christmas!

Two well composed pieces of music - a nice mellow sound that takes me back to my younger days.

Wow! You guys are all so great!  I appreciate your listening and feedback.
I plan on reviewing more of your tunes a little later but I just wanted to duck in and tell you all how grateful I am for your kind words.

By and large, jazz has always been like the kind of a man you wouldn't want your daughter to associate with.
