I need to share some love today

I was 20 years old when this song was released. The Berlin wall had yet to fall. My Mom was still alive. The factories had gone. I still had hope. I still have hope today listening to a great song writer and watching a great performance. We are still here and I am grateful today.

John always was great at painting portraits of middle America with his words. He is under appreciated for his social conscience. Love him.

Thanks for posting this. The splits he did was great. Jsmes Brown worthy.
