Such an underrated band. Wonderful sound. This song not their best, but enjoying it anyway.

oh my lucky number`s been rolling all summer
and when the sun shines, i celebrate
the beauty in life - it`s my duty in life
`cause the rhythm of change
will carry on beating
i`ll take these blue skies, however fleeting
it might be too late tomorrow...
sometimes i get into it
but others, i can`t stand the waiting -
freetime
so long afternoons would go up in balloons
as we killed our time just watching it die
your father, my son, he`d turn in his urn
and sometimes i get into it
but others, i can`t stand to waste it -
freetime
allowing for some change, i`ll carry on mundane
around the corner, await simple pleasures
my beautiful wife in her beautiful life
to the rhythm of change we`ll carry on walking
the hills of glenrosa stand in our future
there`s beauty in life
yes there`s beauty in life

...exactly what I was thinking...and this song seems like a nice start...I'll have to investigate further. |

After writing the post about The Point I ordered the DVD and watched it with my aging parents, my wife, and my two twenty-something daughters. My dad didn't think much of the underlying philosophy but my youngest daughter was amazed by the whole thing and declared it her all-time favorite movie. While rooted in psychedelia, it has a timeless message. I highly recommend it. The music and the animation are great. I have an old VHS version of that film. I've watched it with my 5 year-old son quite a few times. It is a little psychedelic but the animation is wonderful and the music is fantastic. Love Ringo's narration. |

 It's not an earth-shattering song or anything, but I still am always really happy to hear it. |

That album, Cake, was/is absolutely fantastic. I stumbled on it back in 93 and it still finds itself on the top of my CD pile. Good taste!

Me too, and somehow (until the middle 8) it always seems to sound like a Christmas song (somehow). (And I hate Christmas) |

I'm sure Harry would love to hear that.  "A point in every direction is the same as no point at all!" |
