GINO VANELLI - Where Am I Going (w / lyrics)

LYRICS:
Where am I going
Have I gone too far Have I lost my mind
Where are my eyes
Oh have I seen too much Have I lost my touch
Losing directions from growing infections
Poisoned desires of reaping life so young

What will I be like
When my head is bare And my legs are weak
Will I be strong or barely keep alive when I'm thirty-five
Reaching dimensions that shatter conventions
Leads me to fear that I'm growing old too soon

With every step and every breath
It's farther from youth and closer to death
And things I've realized
Now beckon me to shut my eyes
And I will grow to the age of maybe eighty years
In such little time this venturous mind

What am I saying Don't I know myself from experience
I'll never change
Nor cease to sail the sky Till the day I die
I'll come to conclusion with fear or illusion
I'll live how I feel Cause no matter how fast or how slow
Youth will go......................

This is one of my all time favorite songs. Through the years, I've played this album many, many times with my headphones on so that I don't miss any part of this brilliant masterpiece. After over 30 years, this song is just as powerful as it ever was. To say that it was ahead of its time would be a gigantic understatement! Gino and his brother Joe on keyboards were on the ground floor of Smooth Jazz. Thank you very much for posting.

it is one of a million.. for me it´s a classical piece of music .. hard core jazz, smooth jazz, easy listening, it´s all there..

"Gino Wonderful"... one piece like this I can say finish to the music, because in it I find everythings: classic,jazz,rock,samba,opera teatrale,high low,low and high,melody harmony,ritme! An Universal music made from vertical-orizzontal feeling & emotional state, with strong concentration of interpretation.God bless!!!!

I listen to this and I hear:

1. Key changes...

2. Tempo changes...

3. Dynamic changes...

Now listen to a modern pop song and realize what's missing...;)

[honeygrl07]

[corcikan]

with So much time from the past.. Our future looks . ,. , .

[TheDrivest]

I play it from time to time , to remind myself

[Brilliantbeing]

Way underrated. One reason is that he's rated by his Corporate 80's work rather than this breakthrough fusion work of the 70s.

@stevengolfs - My story is a ditto of yours regarding this transcendent music.
