    You are reviewing here and reacting to, one of the greatest and original performers of all time. His body of work isn’t large, but the work he did produce was masterful, this being one, but lesser known. “Moonshadow“ is one of my all-time favorite songs.

I don't know how, though. This song tears at my emotions. Beautiful! I wish I could write songs with this emotion. I've written a couple of songs, but not like this.

      He also sang it life In Chili, in 2015. As a grown up man, when his voice is more broken, not that strong, almost bitter voice anymore. I think it became either more touching, I like that version more than this from his younger years.

    Try listening to Cat Stevens’ early albums as they are truly beautiful. Also, for another tremendous singer songwriter from that period, try Love And Affection (there is an excellent video of her singing it) and also The Weakness In Me by Joan Armatrading. She was really something at that time.

    You should always listen to the
    studio album version of the song,
    because :
    1. It is the closest to the original
    vision of it that the musician(s)
    were able to achieve, and they
    can really take their time to get
    it as close to the vision as
    possible.
    2. Musicians on the road -- touring
    musicians -- are often very tired,
    not feeling very well, and often
    just burned out from playing the
    same songs over and over, often
    until they cant stand them, and so
    they do a poor job in comparison
    to the energy they had when they
    were excited and inspired by the
    newness and freshness of the song.
    3. The sound system characteristics
    very widely from venue to venue,
    whereas once again, in the studio,
    they have far greater control over
    shaping the sounds exactly as they
    wish them to be.
    This all adds up to you having the
    closest version to the artists vision
    possible. 💝
    Fortunately, Cat Stevens was usually
    an awesome live performer.

    Hey Dani, so enjoy your channel! I’m not a patron member and I know you get a lot of requests to react to different songs. I have one I think you would enjoy if you are not sure what to do. It is by a not very well known singer songwriter named Suzanne Vega. She has a song called Luka that I think you would find interesting. If you can find the time thank you.

  • @ZEPnALE

    As great as this live performance is, the studio version has a female backing vocal during the forte section that is so beautiful and sexy. She doesn't sing lyrics, she just hums and wails as if in tranquil ecstasy from Cat's words. Well worth a listen.

    Hi Dani, This is a bit of a plug, as an Aussie i would like you to play a couple of songs or if not one by a band i grew up with here in Australia. The band is Crowded House, who had couple of hits in the States in the mid 80's. The lead singer/songwriter Neil Finn is now lead singer with Fleetwood Mac, if you could choose one of these Don't Dream it's over, Better be home soon or Fall at your feet. I am a long time viewer of yours & i am in awe of your knowledge of music for someone so young.
