Thanks to Johnny Depp and the movie Transcendence and me watching it back in 2014 when I was 24 years old, I found this masterpiece. I’m going on 32 now and haven’t stopped listening to it since. What and amazing musician and a timeless masterpiece.💙💯

probably you're right.. but there are other shades of music that can bring me without words somewhere else this song cannot take me to.. let me know if you want about "Boards Of Canada - Seven Forty Seven" "M83 - Noise" "brian eno invisible" (the first result).. clearly totally different things but everyone takes me somewhere.. and also Brian Eno composed one of the best songs of all times, "Just another day"

The midrange tones of big, rosewood Martin guitars are quieter than the bass and treble ranges. Jorma uses this to perfection here. He sings right in that pocket of beautiful fingerstyle. What touch!

I remember when I got my first good acoustic guitar. A Martin DCX1E, which is behind me on its wall rack. I knew I had to make this the first song I learned on my new spiffy geeetar, lol So that is what I did. One problem is that while I have the tune down on the guitar note for note, easy now.(was not that easy way back then) but I can`t sing and play at the same time.If I tried to do that way back....?

My father had Lewy body dementia. A secondary Parkinson's dementia. He had fallen into total numbness, into the most irremediable rigidity. He then he took the guitar, sang this song. And the agility of hands and mind magically returned. The human body is something indecipherable, mysterious and, in some ways, fascinating.

The time has come for us to pause And think of living as it was Into the future we must cross (must cross) And I'd like to go with you And I'd like to go with you You say I'm harder than a wall A marble shaft about to fall I love you dearer than them all (them all) So let me stay with you So let me stay with you And as we walked into the day Skies of blue had turned to grey I might have not been clear to say (to say) I never looked away I never looked away And though I'm feeling you inside My life is rolling with the tide I'd like to see it be an open ride Along with you Going along with you The time we borrowed from ourselves Can't stay within a vaulted well And living turns into a lender's well So let me come with you And let me come with you And when we came out into view And there I found myself with you And breathing felt like something new Along with you Going along with you

This song now takes on a new dimension for me, having the good fortune to have read an advance copy of Jorma's book "Been So Long" that comes out in a few weeks 8/28/18 . And like a bonus track, I learned that it was our mutual old friend, the late great Mallory Earl , a recording engineer and idea man extraordinare, who suggested the strings on the original recording on "Quah" . Listening & Reading = Learning
