I loved this song the first time I heard it. Amazingly, I still love it 25 years later. Nuff said.

DREAM ON!   ...great song by the way. Neil, Nick and Paul (RIP) were a heck of a trio!

Yep. It's up there with A Whiter Shade of Pale in terms of being an anthem of some kind. Roxy Music's Avalon might also qualify.

 
I agree!  We should start a list.

Was wondering what you like better and checked your ratings, which are pretty close to mine. Strange how some things work for one and others don't. (I like Bridge Over Troubled Water better than this, too, but this is still an 8 at least.)

More CH!  More CH!  Play everything that's NOT a hit — Neil and Tim Finn and Co. are brilliant.  How about "Silent House" from their latest CD?  Brilliant!

Love this song. Sixpence None the Richer sings an interesting interpretation, too.
