  • I love this album but haven't listened to it in years.Today I was reading a passage Reza Aslan's book on Islam about how Mohammad's father was stopped on his way to consummate his marriage by a woman who wanted to "lie with him" because he had a light shining on his forehead between his eyes. He refused and finished his journey, the result of which, according to what Aslan calls part of the ancient birth myth, was Mohammad. Next day, the light has gone. I immediately thought of this song. Hmmmm.

  • @johnshipe I gotta tell you, yours is the best definition I have ever heard. I have always been intrigued with the message that this beautiful song transmits.

  • catch bull was all you left us with cat you left it too late to come back yusuf

  • I was born with a mole on my right temple and a tiny bright red spot above my eyebrow, both of which are still there to this day. My parents referred to me as the boy with the moon and star on his head, my mole being my moon and my red spot being my star, on my head.

  • He is the boy with the moon and the star on his head! :)

  • Not easy to understand the real meaning of all this wonderful song. I don`t get it...But is so beatiful anyway.

    Cheers.

  • Actually, I think that the song is a parable about the enlightenment that comes with the mystical experience. BTW, It IS possible to interpret art in a way other than literally.

  • @Thebonnie0592 You're right -his music will never stop inspiring people! In the same way that religion may or not inspire people, music lives on.

  • Regarding the odd comments about the ethics herein, can I just spell it out for y'all? Western Civilization is BASED on this same story with the genders reversed: A virgin engaged to be married, is seduce by an angelic mysterious entity promising the offspring shall bring a message of salvation. The spouse-to-be is perturbed, but eventually moved by the special nature of the bastard child, and raises the kid as his own. Humanity is enriched, everybody happy. It's a myth meant to inspire.

  • @mattlove1 You'd think he was too preoccupied on his wedding day, but I guess not.
