Children Will Listen from “Into the Woods” - Stephen Sondheim
Apart from the early blues recordings that are still the core of my enjoyment of music, this was the first song I heard on the radio to stop me in my tracks; I was 14-years-old. Then I got into Bob Dylan.

“They say there are strangers who threaten us
Our immigrants and infidels
They say there is strangeness too dangerous
In our theatres and bookstore shelves
Those who know what’s best for us
Must rise and save us from ourselves”
Strangely prophetic in todays bizarre world.

Plenty from the great Neil Peart’s pen,
One of my favorites is The Pass
“All of us get lost in the darkness
Dreamers learn to steer by the stars
All of us do time in the gutter
Dreamers turn to look at the cars”
