Going back to their first album, Out of the Silent Planet, brings this standout track. This is another of the concert staples, and is an example of their "softer" side. Check out the bass solo halfway through. Subtle yet beautiful.

you know how i feel about this song..... this is the one, the one that smacked me in the face and said "HEY! LISTEN TO THIS BAND!!!"
thanks man.... really..... thanks.... if it weren't for you.... well, i wouldn't know King's X and i wouldn't be writing this... much, much love
"i can't believe the summer's almost here..........."

Do you prefer this version, or the newer one?
Yer gonna make me blush! You're welcome. I'm the same way. I can't imagine NOT listening to this band. How much life would suck without them.
My Trusted MOGs
iy really depends on the mood. but i do find my self listening to the live version most often, then the "Reprise" version, then the original. There's just something about dUg's voice on the Reprise version that haunts me.
My Trusted MOGs
Nice new avater there. I should put mine up as well.
My Trusted MOGs
i had to change!

brilliant song. I rocked this song in the cassate player many times back in the day. This is the other Kings X cd I own. Great selection. The vocal harmonies are incredible. Thanks.
My Trusted MOGs
Well, you certainly picked two of the greats to keep. Your welcome. I think this song is one of the unknown classics, personally. It's a shame so few people know it.
My Trusted MOGs
I aggree, this is a must know unknown song. It needs to be on the best un-heard ballads cd compilation that you are going to put out on k-tel records. lol.

Along with Swirilng Eddies' "Blowing Smoke" and the 77's "The Rain Kept Falling in Love."
My Trusted MOGs
Hold back the Wind Donna would be my SE selection. Not sure if that is a ballad though. Maybe a gentle rock song. :)
My Trusted MOGs
That's my favorite off that album, though. But, yeah, probably not a ballad. You could stick "Billy Graham" on there as a bonus track, though!
My Trusted MOGs
That song got me though college... I really need to go back and listen to it...
My Trusted MOGs
I know what you mean. There was a stretch of time where this song and "The Burning Down" off of Gretchen were instrumental in keeping me sane.
