The last time I heard this song I was a kid of about 9 or 10 years old. That was in the early 1980s. We used to listen to a lot of contemporary Christian music, so I grew up listening to Dan Peek, early Petra, Don Francisco, Phil Driscoll, Sweet Comfort Band, The Imperials, Russ Taff...man, brings back memories of childhood.
ciao DAN...purtroppo non ci siamo mai visti...stiamo piangendo per te...ti dedichiamo il nostro album...sei sempre nel nostro cuore...e nei nostri pensieri...ti vogliamo bene...LAREDO
Dan, As my momma would have said " before your feet turn cold you are in the presence of God" & I feel you were prepared for that. ENJOY what we can't on this side!!!
@McBeck1960 You Mom is right,he received God's Grace before he was called before Him, he is now "really" living the eternal life that Our Lord promised us,and you are correct, we can't on this side but soon we all will as long as we follow God will.
Hola Dan, hoy me enteré que dejaste de existir un 24 de julio, justo el día de mi cumpleaños. Te envío un abrazo tan grande que llegue a una nube donde me enseñaste a escuchar esta maravillosa canción.
I used to play this song faithfully at the end of my radio show. I haven't heard it in years, but had to look it up when I heard of Dan's passing. What a great man and wonderful talent. He will be missed.
I would recommend contacting Dan directly. He is very warm and receptive. I have some plans of my own (God willing) concerning this masterpiece. You can email him at the address on his web site. I would start there. God Bless you!
@micahmylove1 God bless you, friend, love a song is common ground enough. Another song I REALLY want to translate to today music. Check out "Old Dan Cotten by Chuck Girard" that is another really moving song that has been speaking to me lately.
Essa música é uma das melhores músicas que escutei na vida, uma obra de arte, conecta me com o universo criado pelo nosso pai...desculpem o termo...mas é uma putíssima música!!!
I just wonder why theres' not enough material in video of america in the Peek era. i recall to have seen Dan performing this beautiful song in Ralph Emery nashville now.
@Snookiebutt That is the most ludicrous comment about America! The band has survived WITHOUT Peek for 34 years now! They continue to perform live and I personally have seen them every year since 1975 (and Peek left in '77)! They just released yet another album two days after Peek's passing. Why? Because America's fans keep demanding-and buying-new music from Dewey Bunnell & Gerry Beckley. Peek was not America by himself anymore than either Beckley or Bunnell is...
@SmithFamilyUTuber I must agree; Gerry Beckley has written some great songs, like 'Sarah', 'Inspector Mills' and many others. In fact, he was always my favourite songwriter of the three, though all of them wrote lovely songs. You always get people who make statements like Snookiebutt's. Some people claim that John Lennon was the only talented Beatle, or that John and Paul were the Beatles and George was just tagging along, or in the words of one idiot: 'standing on the shoulders of giants'!
Simply beautiful! Even though he left the band, he will always be a part of it. I have a cd with their biggest hits, in the liner notes he is still mentioned as one of the members, not anyone who came afterwards.
snookiebutt, I can't thank you enough for this song!It Came out in 1979. I have not heard this song since 1991!!!! I have been looking for it on music web sites everwhere! It is nowhere to be found!!!! But thanks to you & your research I am groving to the sound again!!!!!!!!!!!!!
