Life is a fight between sources of evil and pure love. Alan and Chris present and relay the struggle out of which comes a positive source. Nous sommes du soleil. We are of the sun. We can see. Nous sommes du soleil we love when we play Nous sommes du soleil we love when we play Open doors we find our way We look we see we smile Surely daybreaks cross our path And stay maybe a while Let them run, let them chase Let them hide between Constant doors will open eyes As life seems like Life seems like a Fight, fight, fight Maybe I'll just sing awhile And then give you a call Maybe I'll just say hello And say maybe that's all Hurry home as love is true Will help us through the night Till we're coming home again Our life seems like Life seems like a Fight, fight, fight Catch as we look and use the passions that flow As we try to continue We receive all we venture to give Maybe we'll just stand awhile And surely we can call Dreams are said to blossom courage Constant to the soul Change we must as surely time does Changes call the course Held inside we enter daybreaks Asking for asking four The source The source The source Sent as we sing our music's total retain As we try and consider We receive all we venture to give All we sai is our Soul constant sight listener We won't tender our song clearer Till we sail Then I will be there And I will be there As clearer companions Shall call to be near you They move around tell me that Move around surely sing As they don't seem to matter at all At all at all Hold me my love, hold me today call me round Travel we say, wander we choose love tune Lay upon me, hold me around lasting hours We love when we play We hear a sound and alter our returning We drift the shadows and course our way on home Flying home Going home Look me my love sentences move dancing away We join we receive As our song memories long hope in a way Nous sommes do soleil Hold, me around, lsting ours We love when we play Nous sommes do soleil Nous sommes du soleil Nous sommes du soleil YES If i had too pick yes's greatest composition.

Wonderboy Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 High vibration go on to the sun, oh let my heart dreaming past a mortal as me. Where can I be? Wish the sun to stand still. Reaching out to touch our own being Past a mortal as we Here we can be We can be here, be here now. Here we can be. AWAKEN SUNS HIGH STREAM through AWAKEN GENTLE STRONG DREAMS BEGIN HERE AWAKEN MASS .)(. MASS TOUCH STAR,SONG,AGE,LESS TOUCHING Workings of man set to ply out historical life. Reregaining the flower of the fruit of his tree. All awakening, all restoring you. Workings of man, crying out from the fires set aflame. By his blindness to see that the warmth of his being is promised for his seeing, his reaching so clearly. Workings of man driven far from the path. Rereleased in inhibitions So that all is left for you all is left for you all is left for you all this left for you now. Master of things. Master of light. Songs cast alight on you. All pure chance. Hark through dark ties. As exists cross divided. That tunnel us out of sane existence. In all encircling mode. In challenge as direct. Oh closely guided plan. As eyes see young stars assemble. Awaken in our heart. Master of soul. Master of time. Set to touch. Setting sail. All impenetrable youth. Over all of our lands. Ask away. And as we look. That thought be contact. Forever closer. With all that's clear. Shall we now bid. Be honest with yourself. Farewell, farewell. there's no doubt, no doubt. High vibration go on to the sun, oh let my heart dreaming past a mortal as me. Where can I be? Wish the sun to stand still. Reaching out to touch our own being Past a mortal as we Here we can be We can be here. Like the time I ran away and turned around and you were standing close to me. Like the time I ran away and turned around and you were standing close to me.

I was lucky enough to have seen them a bunch of times back in the day, both with Wakeman and Patrick Moraz. I was an aspiring bass player and struggled mightily to get even close to Chris Squire's parts on "Heart of the Sunrise" and so many other songs. Remember even going to Manhattan to find my first set of Rotosounds strings which helped with his percussive sound. Too many great songs to choose one favorite. But gun to my head, I'd go with "Starship Trooper" and "And You and I". Phenomenal vibe in both multiple part tunes. 11 hours ago, genot said: Perhaps the most underappreciated prog bands the seventies produced.

He did tell some stories that were happy like when he was in France late at night he heard people walking toward and thought it was German soldiers but it turned out to be French farmers giving the Americans food. When it came to combat though he was pretty quiet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, not a guitarist, but just heard Ellis Marsalis died from COVID-19. He was 85. RIP. Ellis Marsalis, jazz pianist, educator, and patriarch of the Marsalis family, has died at the age of 85. His death was announced in tweets from New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell and Jazz at Lincoln Center, where his son Wynton is managing and artistic director. OBITUARIES 'Morning Edition' On Ellis Marsalis Add to PLAYLIST Toggle more options He reportedly went into the hospital over the weekend with symptoms of pneumonia. The New York Timesreports that his son Branford says the cause of death was complications from COVID-19. Ellis Louis Marsalis Jr. was born on Nov. 14, 1934. He graduated from Dillard University in New Orleans with a B.A. in music education, and that was the field to which he devoted himself. Despite playing with such notable jazz musicians as Cannonball and Nat Adderley, he was most proud of his work as an educator. His music students included Terence Blanchard, Donald Harrison, Harry Connick Jr. and four of his sons: Wynton, Branford, Delfeayo and Jason Marsalis. NPR'S 'JAZZ PROFILES' Ellis Marsalis: Pianist, Teacher And New Orleans Jazz Patriarch Ellis Marsalis taught at the first full-time public arts high school in New Orleans, the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, where he instructed students on the harsh realities of pursuing a career in the arts. The former Marine put it this way to NPR in 1985: "There is no such thing as fair. The world's not fair, it's not about being fair." Marsalis went on to become Commonwealth Professor at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond before returning to his hometown to teach at the University of New Orleans. Yet he still managed to record more than 15 albums of his own, in addition to collaborations with his sons. And on top of all that, he played a weekly gig at a small New Orleans club, Snug Harbor Jazz Bistro, for three decades before retiring just this year. https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/04/02/825717204/ellis-marsalis-patriarch-of-new-orleans-most-famous-musical-family-has-died Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
