Every time I listen to this album I either burst into tears or get extremely sentimental. I still don't understand how it's possible to create music that strikes all the chords with you, that is sooo beautiful that you're out of words. I'm thankful for living this life and being aware of existence of this album.
@@davidcunningham7612 I had this record in my hands in a record store 52 years ago thinking thats a wild cover . Never heard one song off it till yesterday ...I wish I'd never put that album down .
I ain't got too much money, I ain't got too much sense Long ago I had a dream but that's no recompense My father was a blind man, my brother was a fool My mother told me "God is love" But hatred makes the rules Teach me to fly So I shan't drag my feet in the sand Give me the sky I would take the whole world in my hand Well, don't you tell me I cannot last at all Before you know I'll come and go And make you if I can Maybe I'm a beggar Just check your sympathy They throw away their gentle love And keep their pain for me Can we be free In a world where to love is to own? Well when will we see That a man must face life all alone? Maybe I'm a beggar Just check your sympathy They throw away their gentle love And keep their pain for me Teach me to fly So I shan't drag my feet in the sand Give me the sky I would take the whole world in my hand Can we be free In a world where to love is to own? Well when will we see That a man must face life all alone?
Most web sites say "I cannot last forever", but I also found "I cannot last at all" a few times. I really am wondering what he really says here. Does anyone know for sure?
My sister and me bought this record around 1978... and every year, when autumn arrives, I like to play this record and "Indelibly Stamped". From Valencia (Spain)
With all the mainstream music of the time, when I discovered this album in the early 80s I was totally blown away... sounds just as amazing today!! Viva supertramp!👏
I have been a huge fan of this band since I first heard a song on the radio, which was around 1980. This is a gem from their first, quite underrated album
You need to listen with headphones for the stereo split sound! Exquisite hamonic Composition and Session Jamming - everyone owns his instrument completely
I was so happy to stumble upon this Lp. As it sounds raw and there concept album. I feel they write as great or better than Lennon/ McCartney as all there albums are entirely fantastic, every song. Can you name one that wasn’t? ☮️
Cette chanson met en relation le fait que dans le monde où nous vivons, la liberté et l'amour sont gâchés par toutes les choses matérielles que nous consommons. Cette chanson a été écrite dans une période de consommation de masse, où les gens consommaient sans réfléchir. L'auteur a peut-être voulu nous dire que cette consommation excessive nous repliait sur nous-mêmes, et donc par conséquent, enlevait notre liberté. C'est pour cela que le mendiant est libre, car il ne possède rien.
