"And you'll never know just how dark this screen could be"
And It Stoned Me is great.....so is Crazy Love....so is Moondance itself.
I'll pick five current faves cus I can't pick one:
Hymns to the Silence
Ballerina
In The Garden
Wavelength
Queen of the Slipstream
I just like absolutely everything he does. Breathtaking.
...see I knew this would happen.
Moondance
Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
’neath the cover of october skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I’m trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Can I just have one a’ more moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love
Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I can’t wait ’til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that you’re never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you can’t hide
Can I just have one a’ more moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love
Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
’neath the cover of october skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I’m trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
One more moondance with you in the moonlight
On a magic night
La, la, la, la in the moonlight
On a magic night
Can’t I just have one more dance with you my love
That's my favorite. Great choice!

Verona??? it's all surmountable
Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
Wembley? We all believe!
Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
Chicago 07? And love
What a different life
Had I not found this love with you
im with you on that one
its perfect
i love it
live like your dying today
Wavelength has to be one of my faves by the Man. It took me forever and a day to find that disc.
My other faves that I like to pick from an albums are: Full Force Gail and Glad Tidings. It helps that I can play the harmonica to the sax in Glad Tidings too.
A true artist that you can just chill with the entire album and not have to worry about skipping a bad song.
For the guy/girl who couldn't dig Van the Man on the Last Waltz.......turn it up, radio, got soul!!!

Of which we're caught in the middle.
A couple of lucky ones
Tangled up in too much love
~cowboy junkies
From "And It Stoned Me" onward.....the whole damn thing is awesome.
I also like Into the Mystic.
And I will stroll the merry way
And jump the hedges first
And I will drink the clear
Clean water for to quench my thirst
And I shall watch the ferry-boats
And they'll get high
On a bluer ocean
Against tomorrow's sky
And I will never grow so old again
And I will walk and talk
In gardens all wet with rain
Oh sweet thing, sweet thing
My, my, my, my, my sweet thing
And I shall drive my chariot
Down your streets and cry
'Hey, it's me, I'm dynamite
And I don't know why'
And you shall take me strongly
In your arms again
And I will not remember
That I even felt the pain.
We shall walk and talk
In gardens all misty and wet with rain
And I will never, never, never
Grow so old again.
Oh sweet thing, sweet thing
My, my, my, my, my sweet thing
And I will raise my hand up
Into the night time sky
And count the stars
That's shining in your eye
Just to dig it all an' not to wonder
That's just fine
And I'll be satisfied
Not to read in between the lines
And I will walk and talk
In gardens all wet with rain
And I will never, ever, ever, ever
Grow so old again.
Oh sweet thing, sweet thing
Sugar-baby with your champagne eyes
And your saint-like smile....
That's it right there.
You most definitely called it!
If i had to pick a favorite from Moondance though, it would be Caravan. And even though it's been remade a million times, Have I Told You Lately is mine and my husbands "song", nobody can sing it like Van.
'I can hear her heart beat'.....those vocals.........chillingly good.
