By the side of the tracks where the train goes by
The wind and the rain will catch you, you will sigh
Deep in your heart
Then you'll come a-running to me
You'll come a-running to me

Well you watch the train go 'round the bend
Play in dust and dream that it will never end
Deep in your heart
You'll come a-running to me
You'll come a-running to me

Said, hey, come a-running to me
Oh, come a-running to me
Hey, yeah, come a-running to me
Said, hey, come a-running to me
Oh, come a-running to me
Hey, yeah, come a-running to me

With your hound dog by your side
And your arms stretched out open wide
I wanna keep you satisfied in the morning sun
By my side, come on, come on run
And you kick the sand up with your heels
You think to yourself how good it feels
Put away all your walking shoes
Then you come running to me
Now you come running to me

I said, hey, come a-running to me
Oh, come a-running to me
Hey, yeah, come a-running to me

You gotta rainbow if you run to me

Saw him at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco in the early 70's. He did the entire set with his back to the audience, and his band looked bored. But holy shit were they tight.

Critique published on an internet based radio station.
Yes, one gig I went to he arrived late, chewed out the band, only played a couple of numbers, and then stormed off stage again..mid 70's.
funny memory of him showing up drunk to do a high school performance (Bishop Brady HS, Concord NH) not long after this....nobody's finest hour, the 70s...
Great LP. How about something from Astral Weeks?

There, end of rant. 01/03/2006 - 12:14:12 Van Morrison has launched a scathing attack on the internet, insisting it is responsible for the dumbing down of society and modern culture. The Gloria hitmaker is convinced the web has caused more problems than it has solved, and insists Earth would be a better place without it. He says: "Now, because of the internet, everyone's suddenly a big shot. I'm talking about people who think that because they've looked up a website, they know everything. "You used to have to study things but now you can just find it on the internet, and everybody feels very important because they have access to this stuff. "It was a different culture when I was young. Quality, respect - they seem to have vanished."
 

yeah sure, but everyone needs to appreciate the limits of their knowledge and understanding. the problem with the internet is all the half-assed misinformation out there, and the problem with van Morrison is his elitist, bullshit attitude reinforced by accolades of the artless.

It's our INTERNET, not Zuckerberg's nor Schmidt's. WE can take it back, if we are motivated enough.
Just how I like my Van Morrison songs: short.

Actually, it's excellent.
Well, aside from the opening track, which has some shrill background vocals.
The very mellow (and long) "Autumn Song" is one of my faves.
AutumnSong
We need more Van Morrison OOMPH during this wild pandemic.

Thanks RP and keep well all.

From Vancouver island, BC., Canada
really tired of this. Been overplayed for too many years. How about Sweet Thing  or In The Garden?
Morrison is great! My favorite are "Sweet Thing" and then "Tupelo Honey".
Yes - all true. That said, I am loving Radio Paradise with its variety and introduction to new artists! Would not be playing right now - if not for the Internet.

I've never heard that, and I can't find any evidence for it. Maybe it's in his contracts, but his shows aren't usually that short. I've definitely seen him play for 90+ and do encores.

Au contraire, I did  posit he was the king of the mumble mumble shout school. This, however, is the exception, he actually enunciates and tries to sing. There is a theory that when he started to lose his hair, the hat affected his hearing.

For the longest time I only had Van Morrison's Greatest Hits but a little while ago I got this album, the 180g vinyl reissue. Perhaps the best value-for-money I've ever gotten. What a perfect album. Just effortless, beautiful blue-eyed soul going on, start to finish.

Makes you wanna skip down the street with a smile on your face, man. 
Saw Van a number of times. Once in Buffalo,NY about maybe 1978 he stumbled onstage and fell over the mike stand to start the show. Happened to sit next to his table in the Anchor Bar post concert and leaned over to say I'd enjoyed the show. "Glad someone did" was his response.
Love the guy.

Wow...  what memories of this...  love it...
 
Yes, indeed, a "Desert Island Album".  All of the times when I have seen VM in concert and the two times I have personally met him, I've remarked that this is the 'Ur-Album" ("Ur" meaning the absolute basic, founding father, primordial, etc etc" album of his career. )  VM's work on this album is seminal .. seminal meaning that he gives life to so many kinds of marvelous melodies and verses.  As you all know, VM is a very private and shy man; his sole comment to me when I waxed poetic about this album (whilst on a photo shoot in Malta many years ago) he said, "aye, that twas a work of art to be sure"  — I replied "Van, you mean a Work of Morrison, right?"  He just laughed and turned away while I snapped more frames.  Do I love this album?  Oh hell yes.  As our Former Member, Rometuna would have said "We are all rocking in our hotel room" or something like that.....



Moondance is a seminal album ... a 'desert island' album.  Powerful - start to finish.

  This makes no sense to me. Strangling a whippet would clearly lead to a severely higher pitch than what we observe. I suggest a more robust dog for the job. Not sure which one though. Of course, John Anderson live was nowhere close to hitting the notes we all thought were due. Not bankrupt but surely strained.


 tompoll wrote:

Wow. Officially the first time I've ever seen anyone accuse Jon Anderson of bad singing. Confusing quality with pitch?
 
It would probably be better to address Jon Anderson's irritating, eunuch-like screeching.  I guess that's technically different than "bad singing", "officially".
I've always thought his voice has a distinct "Porky Pig" quality to it, which is readily apparent to me in this song.

I like rants.  Rant away.  But I have a counter rant.  Here goes.  The Internet rocks.  {#Dancingbanana_2}  Van needs his head examined.

My second favorite horn section, right behind James Brown's Fabulous Flames.

A long time ago, in the mid 70s my other half was working backstage at a Van gig and was rubbing shoulders with the man himself. He sank two bottles of red wine before the gig and apparently it was standard fare for him to get into shape to sing. . . which accounts for much of his style I guess.

Moondance is a great album.  Most of Van's stuff from this period was (Astral Weeks, His band and street Choir, etc.).
Wow! Moondance is so damn righteous

OK Van - keep on praying to your Higher Self, but let me tell you something: there will always be poetry, according to the great Spanish post-romantic Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, with whom I agree on this point. Besides, I can perfectly understand your point of view, and confess that I feel tented into agreement: internet is a marketplace of egolatrism. But that's not the fault of the internet itself, instead it is of those who don't know where its real utilities are to be found. And last not least: I owe it to the internet that I could get deeper into several lyrics of yours which I highly appreciate. Because the way you mumble them out doesn't make it precisely easier for us no-native speakers to capture them. Long may you run.

You can't blame him. He's just making the typical human error of assuming that some kind of technology is inherently bad (or good). I'm quite sure many people had similar ideas as Van when the printing press was invented. True, the internet is full of crap, but there are also many gems (like RP ). It's just a matter of finding them.

I like this one plenty good. Actually, I love the last 3 or 4 songs on Moondance. These Dreams, Come Running, Glad Tidings, etc. are a terrific crescendo to an awesome set of songs. P.S. Saw Van last spring in Mpls. Do all of his concerts start EXACTLY on time? Was in the Target Center corridors getting a beverage at about 7:25 thinking, "Plenty of time!" Minutes later, still in line, Van's band and his saxophone was blaring out through the halls. A look at the watch - 7:30pm. A quick glance at some other concert goers, some also looking at their watches - a few others just nodding and smiling, "It must be 7:30".
could he look any more like van gogh on the album cover? van morrison/van gogh? anyone?
Van's playing at ACL this year. As if i needed another reason to covet my neighbor's tickets
i used to love van -then he played redrocks and he was an ASSHOLE. hey -you sing -get over yourself.
Further to Van Morrison Slams Internet.... This made me think of the Bible book Ecclesiastes. (Worth taking the time to read it. Only 12 chapters, but it is the wisdom of Solomon !!) 5:3 For a dream certainly comes in because of abundance of occupation, and the voice of a stupid one because of the abundance of words. 7:12 For wisdom is for a protection money is for a protection; but the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom itself preserves alive its owners. 12:12 ...To the making of many books there is no end, and much devotion is wearisome to the flesh.
A nice song, but not even the best, from one of the greatest albums ever made. I see RP has every song but one (Brand New Day) in the library, and even after all these years it's ranked #181 on Amazon. Go, Van!

Can't listen to this without comparing it to his own Domino, which is rather similar (the horns in particular) and I prefer the latter.
