While looking for something else on YT, I stumbled upon clip of one of my all-time favourite albums in its entirety. I thought it might interest some 'catters. It is indeed a classic imo.
The standout track for me is the lovely 'When morning comes to America'.
WHEN MORNING COMES TO AMERICA (Jonas Fjeld)
My father would shower for work every day He'd shave by the old radio We'd listen in bed to that rhythm every day Wonderin' how one man could sing down so low
Then my cousin brought money from world's far away With colours and strange soundin' names And I'd search like a sailor to find where they lay Promisin' myself I would go there one day
My grandfather gave me an old radio It played foreign stations from crystals that glowed And just like a comet ready to appear I knew I'd shine much brighter in that new atmosphere
When morning comes to America
A mother awakens somewhere in the west Her child's content from her breast The husband soon joins her and walks down the stairs Finding her a ribbon to pull back her hair
