It's sad that this was written in 1985. 30 years later and you can still use the lyrics. You only have to change some names of the persons and places. And it is all up-to-date.
Reading your comment 04-2020 sheltering in place....🤦 thinking we're not ever going to get it together b4 they light it all up out of sheer stupidity.... we think we're all that and a new iPhone.....
Okay, so the first 2 songs i discover by this great artist are this song (suuper relevant in 2020) and "The Swimming Song" and I am a swim coach, so that brings me great joy also. Thank you!!!
Dylan was great for a while. Genuinely belive Ludo is better. Always keeping my unrest at bay with his songs of unrest... Like so many legends and geniuse's, he won't get the credit until he's gone.
This is a thoroughly depressing song - I find it hard to believe life on earth was ever as easy or standards of living were ever higher for more people than they are now. It;s just that the News goes out everywhere, throughout the earth on every TV, radio and now hand-held device. It's merely getting harder and harder to get away from the news.
Anyone know the guitar tabs/chords to this song? I would greatly appreciate it. Tuning and strumming pattern would be awesome too, though the chords alone would be great! Thanks so much!
@Jack Paul Haha right. And not too long after you wrote it either. I was so confused at first, thinking "what song was I even asking about. Gosh, I was really annoying back then huh?"🤣hey don't rush it with those chords. Take 30 years if you need I'll only be 66 by then. Still young enough to get down. What a trip seeing this this morning
This tune fit the times we're livin in.
2020 and more relevant then ever?
Literally line for line lol
And then we have 2021... yeah, 2022 isn't looking too great either.
I find it's more relevant every year we are alive

this mans sheer lyrical, vocal and musical brilliance is masterful! ....to me a true legend.
His optimism is contagious!
This is one awesome song, i never get bored listening to it. Everytime i hear it it gives me goose bumps.
Wow, this song is older than me, and yet it feels like it's only been written yesterday!
Cuts straight to the bone.
My god, this has aged like a fine wine... sadly
Lyrics that truly capture a moment in time ❤ love acoustic guitar. Great song

Ok, state this in RT ; 12:45 from the Netherlands 2017 :) ))
this is a different version than "more love songs" .. interesting ..
Does anyone know what version this is? It's not the album version, it sounds like a studio recording
@Walliehwallie How did you get this acoustic version? I'd love to download it but I can't find this one on iTunes. Cheers.
