Im getting thoase same goosebumps Debbie...what a vocal performance from Walsh. absolutely brilliant piece of music.....'one man one heart' rocks aswell!
Walsh could still be 70s-like in the 80s when he wanted to, like on Ghosts. Proved he hadn't really lost anything, it was partly by choice, still is I think.
Kansas has so many fantastic songs, but this one might be my favorite. This song never really got it's due as far as I'm concerned. It's such a beautiful song, and the lead guitar is haunting.
this really looks fake

First time I head this song I knew I'd heard something like it by someone else. The name: Bob Ezrin. The connection: Alice Cooper.

Haunting lyrics (no pun intended), great delivery. Steve Walsh on top in his prime...keyboard handstands all around!

This was a song dedicated to the victims of the Neosho Falls flood of 1959..the visions of the victims live in this song!
