    I believe I was 17 when I bought Quah. This song got me through a lot. Just love the way he plays. Never gets old 50 years later.

    Thanks to Johnny Depp and the movie Transcendence and me watching it back in 2014 when I was 24 years old, I found this masterpiece. I’m going on 32 now and haven’t stopped listening to it since. What and amazing musician and a timeless masterpiece.💙💯

    Thanks, Jorma. I'm 66 in 2023, and I've been... not following exactly, but appreciating your guidance since I was 15. I would love to come to FurPeaceRanch, but I've got these cats to feed... I've never looked away. And you have helped.

      @pekkatotuttopetto 6 лет назад +7

      Yeah, I easily cry listening to this song.. I like to write, I like to create melodies with my guitar, but I cannot even imagine the state of inspiration he must have had to combine both in such masterpiece..

    • @gatoryak7332
      @gatoryak7332 2 года назад +1

      The midrange tones of big, rosewood Martin guitars are quieter than the bass and treble ranges. Jorma uses this to perfection here. He sings right in that pocket of beautiful fingerstyle. What touch!

    • @charcrowder1467
      @charcrowder1467 Год назад +1

    • @gib59er56
      @gib59er56 Год назад

      I remember when I got my first good acoustic guitar. A Martin DCX1E, which is behind me on its wall rack. I knew I had to make this the first song I learned on my new spiffy geeetar, lol So that is what I did. One problem is that while I have the tune down on the guitar note for note, easy now.(was not that easy way back then) but I can`t sing and play at the same time.If I tried to do that way back....?

    • @pekkatotuttopetto
      @pekkatotuttopetto 6 лет назад +2

      probably you're right.. but there are other shades of music that can bring me without words somewhere else this song cannot take me to.. let me know if you want about
      "Boards Of Canada - Seven Forty Seven"
      "M83 - Noise"
      "brian eno invisible" (the first result)..
      clearly totally different things but everyone takes me somewhere.. and also Brian Eno composed one of the best songs of all times, "Just another day"

  • @alexkalish8288

    Jorma's singing on this song is more refined now than it was when I first heard it - in the early 70's. I wasn't more than 15 feet from him , those were the days.

    My father had Lewy body dementia. A secondary Parkinson's dementia. He had fallen into total numbness, into the most irremediable rigidity. He then he took the guitar, sang this song. And the agility of hands and mind magically returned.
    The human body is something indecipherable, mysterious and, in some ways, fascinating.

    The time has come for us to pause
    And think of living as it was
    Into the future we must cross (must cross)
    And I'd like to go with you
    And I'd like to go with you
    You say I'm harder than a wall
    A marble shaft about to fall
    I love you dearer than them all (them all)
    So let me stay with you
    So let me stay with you
    And as we walked into the day
    Skies of blue had turned to grey
    I might have not been clear to say (to say)
    I never looked away
    I never looked away
    And though I'm feeling you inside
    My life is rolling with the tide
    I'd like to see it be an open ride
    Along with you
    Going along with you
    The time we borrowed from ourselves
    Can't stay within a vaulted well
    And living turns into a lender's well
    So let me come with you
    And let me come with you
    And when we came out into view
    And there I found myself with you
    And breathing felt like something new
    Along with you
    Going along with you

    Freaking me out. I cued a number of tunes on the "watch later" feature yesterday and a couple of hours ago I had listened to five of them and then stopped to watch the movie "Transcendence" which we had just bought earlier today...
    ...and this video, which I had cued next on the list, followed by the 1974 recording, sung and played by Jorma, is throughout the movie...
    ...most would call it just a random coincidence... I know better.

    This song now takes on a new dimension for me, having the good fortune to have read an advance copy of Jorma's book "Been So Long" that comes out in a few weeks 8/28/18 . And like a bonus track, I learned that it was our mutual old friend, the late great Mallory Earl , a recording engineer and idea man extraordinare, who suggested the strings on the original recording on "Quah" . Listening & Reading = Learning

    Thank you Jorma. You, and your music are timeless. So comforting in our time quarantine. I learned this when I first started finger picking in 1976, and still struggle with that A7 pinky bend. It’s those little details that separate the great players from the rest of us.

    I always liked Jorma's music - the stuff he has written - above and beyond the classics that fill his sets. I've been out of touch but wonder if he has ever done of a show of just his compositions. His lyrics show the depth of his genius. Genesis is so beautiful.

    Two things, 1) this is a masterpiece. It's everything I want in a song. Jorma is getting us, and if you get the chance see him. The right answer to the question "how many times did you see Jorma"? is every chance I could. 2) how did 21 people dislike this song enough to give it a thumbs down? Sad.
