This song thrilled me when it first came out, and it still inspires me now. it also frightens me a bit. It seems prescient.

Magnifico.

Omygod I love Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam, and always have. I think I have most of his albums on vinyl, and all on CD. It is so nice to find so many other fans here, first- and second-generation. Lotta love up in here! I think the quality of spirit of his admirers here speaks to his quality of spirit. Thank you, katydid. Studyolic, would love to see your dining room! <3

I've got the latin lyrics of this song written in gold paint around the walls of my dining room. No kidding. Every visitor asks me what the latin says. Great song.

Cat makes the Latin sound so beautiful. I was learning Latin when I first heard this song, at the age of 14. Amazing song from an amazing album, Catch Bull at Four. Thanks for posting with such beautiful images -- romanticized, "paint-ified" photographs. You must have worked hard to make them!!!



Such a powerful song. Stevens was ahead of his time, for sure.
