Radio Paradise (mobile)

In days of peace --
Sweet smelling summer nights
Of wine and song;
Dusty pavements burning feet.
Why am I crying, I want to know.
How can I smile and make it right?
For sixty days and eighty nights
And not give in and lose the fight.

I'm going back to the ones that I know,
With whom I can be what I want to be.
Just one week for the feeling to go --
And with you there to help me
Then it probably will.

I won't go down
Acting the same old play.
Give sixty days for just one night.
Don't think I'd make it: but then I might.

I'm going back to the ones that I know,
With whom I can be what I want to be.
Just one week for the feeling to go --
And with you there to help me
Then it probably will.

SchoepTone Aug 29, 2012 - 14:45	Vintage Tull is always great. Note - New Ian Anderson Thick as a Brick II disk is his best in years. Would like to hear some of it here as well. [ Reply ]

82comet Mar 24, 2012 - 10:03	Great old Tull song. Very glad to hear this pop up on RP once in a while. The haters should give the old JT stuff a chance before casting their condemnations. It's a little different but isn't what you want anyway? [ Reply ]

Way back then, I bought this on the strength of "Teacher," and wasn't too disappointed—as I recall. At some point Reprise runs a contest either through Rolling Stone or local radio: first one to submit the total time of Benefit wins something. Easy, right? Here was the catch: on the original pressing of the album, there are no track times. I imagined then, and even now methinks, the suits at Reprise getting a chuckle out of very-stoned-and-very-confused-hippies trying to figure out the track times. I thought then—and I think now, "Fuck them." [ Reply ]
Giselle62 Feb 21, 2012 - 17:32	Just gonna pop in to say: "Damn, why does Jethro Tull sound so good to me?" Well, my parents had the albums—-but I did not overhear it. I'll give it a 9. [ Reply ]

bachbeet Oct 17, 2011 - 22:42	I liked this album more then than I do now. But I still think that their first, This Was, was their best. [ Reply ]
iTuner Oct 17, 2011 - 22:39	Had to give this song a 1 and it turns out I already had. [ Reply ]
