2.265/365: September challenge — a song that moves you forward

Firstly, there are 100 days left in 2019. Wow.

Come on a journey with me. I couldn’t think of a song for today until ten minutes ago and it was there all the while. I’ve loved this song forever. I fell in love with it in 1987 when I saw The Prince’s Trust Gala on HBO (which I taped and watched 100 times). The Prince’s Trust was a rock show with lots of big name musicians on the same stage.

I was already a huge Beatles fan, so when Elton John introduced George Harrison and Ringo Starr, I sat up straight on the couch, eyes and ears wide open. On stage with Sir Elton, Ringo, Jeff Lynne, and Phil Collins (ugh, why?), George started “Here Comes the Sun.”

Here is that very performance.
