PP Arnold's backing group The Nice from their first, and best, LP. Sums up the period pretty much. Their sets at the Marquee were incredible. Then they had a hit record....

Classic track. Saw these guys a cpl of times in 67/68 ish, once on tour with Hendrix & also at The Magic Village in Manchester. Great times! Shook David O'Lists hand after the show, was just as impressed with his guitar playing than Emerson on keyboard, you could tell he appreciated it!

Wasn't this the theme for a 1968 kid's TV Show 'The Tyrant King'also had music from Cream and Moody Blues?

Oh, who WOULDN'T want to go back and be young again? You can't, of course, which I believe adds a bit of tragedy to this otherwise euphoric song.

Does anyone else remember the chorus of this excellent song used for a 'Blueband' margarine advert of the 1960's on British TV?
I know I didn't imagine it.
NB - Saw Keith and the Nice in Watford 2003. Made me feel like I was 'going back to be young again'.

On your part it was very nice to correct my mistake. English is foreign language to me, so ...

@Keith13rina for "become", read "be kind"

"Autumn To Spring" (Charisma) shares 6 songs in common, including this one, with "Emerlist Davjack" (Columbia). "Autumn To Spring" contains 3 additional songs, including 'America'; "Emerlist" only a couple: 'Rondo' & 'War & Peace.' I haven't thought about this or listened to this music in decades. It's so pleasant to be reacquainted with these gems, thanks to you.

probably my favourite lp. bought it when I was14. first heard it on juke box jury tv programme. saw them live which was so good,and they had power and showmanship as well as daring to incorporate earlier classical music.it was a shame how for me elp went more mainstream in the 70s.

The song is a delightful .* _ * I really love it.

@daphneafrodita I'm going back, going back to be young again
to find the time to develop my mind and become
to really see, to really hear, to really live, to really love and become
when I was young I knew that I was right
then everything moved, I wandered out of sight

@daphneafrodita Just write them down as you listen. They are pretty clear.

"Emerlist Davjack" is a pseudonym of the four band members' surnames: Keith Emerson, Dave O'List, Brian Davison and Lee Jackson. That's "Emer-List Dav-Jack."
