@CZeke is the song you're thinking of "The Stranger" by Billy Joel? The slow piano opening and closing of that song are similar to the melody of this song.

@CZeke Maybe Bell Bottom Blues? I will say the harmony does have a Lennon sound to it. One day, I'll probably hear "the other song" and the lightbulb will brighten.

[CZeke]

@moondansyr: That's not it... but it sounds similar and it's a GREAT song, so thanks for the suggestion!

@CZeke - - Is it maybe "Can't Find My Way Back Home" from Blind Faith (Clapton)?

@str33nz:  Shows how much they love it. I'd love to see them hit again. God knows, they've earned it.

I'm going crazy trying to figure out what the bit at 1:11 (and 2:47) reminds me of. There's some other song with a bit that sounds exactly like that. Beatles, maybe? Anyone know?

In a more general way, this song sounds kind of like Stairway to Heaven. Listen to it after listening to this one and you'll see what I mean.

One of life's great mystery's why Fastball is not more successful. They rank with the Beatles and Jim Croce as my favorite artists of all time

this is such a beautiful song..makes me cry.

I just don't understand why this band is not bigger than it is... they are amazing..
