Soon, love, soon
Soon, love, soon
There'll be a fire burning in the temple of our peace
Soon, love, soon
There'll be a soaring voice for our silent pleas
Soon, love, soon
We will hold our broken circle and begin to pray
Soon, love, soon
We will find a black and white in the gray
And we will be as one god
And we will be as one people
(x3)
Soon, love, soon
We will find illumination in unnatural light
Soon, love, soon
You will travel a thousand miles without leaving my sight
Soon, love, soon
We will find we never knew hatred ran so deep
Soon, love, soon
Such a wide, wide chasm of faith to leap
But we will be as one god
And we will be as one people
(x3)
Soon, love, soon
There will be an evolution of the human soul
Soon, love, soon
We will know that be a part is to be truly whole
Soon, love, soon
We will know the pattern of centuries rise and fall
Soon, love, soon
We will know that the fate of one is the fate of all
And we will be as one god
And we will be as one people
(x7)
She is such an awesome person, and such a multi-instrumentalist! I was lucky and blessed to see her do a show at e-Town Hall here in Boulder on July 13. It's an intimate venue; a recording studio, really, without the glass, and the sound is stellar as can be. She was lovely, radiant, absolutely stunning, with long hair, a frilly dress, and suede boots, and yet she was down to Earth and genuinely fun. She told us how she misses living here (I think her husband still does work for NCAR), how she had found it necessary to take a step back from the spotlights for awhile to raise her young daughter -- who was up late and in the audience for the first time, she said! and she gave us a remarkable performance to remember forever. She took and played requests, and moved us mightily at every turn. She was adept at all the technology -- she had a mind-blowing array of toys, from keyboards to hand-held things from The Future, but what she blew us away with most was her pure passion, consummate skill and musicianship, and her incredible desire to make a difference. When she played "Level Up," we were all completely under her spell, and we did not want it to be broken...and the high we all felt still remains. She is a goddess! and you should by all means make the effort to see her and feel her magic!
Thank you coloradojohn. What a beautiful review. Your posts always reveal just how much you love and deeply appreciate music.
The point where she sings that we're all one god. Not the holy tri-fold, but today's billion-fold, you've got to adjust to the times!
PS: I absolutely love this song!
I love this comment!
And I enjoy this song. I find that haunting (contrapuntal?) soft chorus: "And we will never..." just arresting. 8 from me.
I don't know where I read the following, but it sticks in my mind as a joke:
A deist wants to talk to an atheist about God. The atheist says "Fine, but first we have to define our terms."
I think that taking any firm "position" on the question(s) of divinity implies a failure of imagination and of humility.
Of course, my opinion plus about $4 will get you a cup of coffee.
Try the volume knob Mr. music snob.
Can't find the PSD?

I could ask my Dad if he feels the same, as he is in a doomsday cult.
He works at the White House?

I'm not sure if that's racist or hilarious.
Exactly.
Everybody in my church loves this song...

Well, yeah. She's Asian. She doesn't have a large Gallic nose to sing through.

OK, I didn't post about this sounding kind of like Enya, but at least two other people did, way back when. *phew*
That was a close call but thank goodness you are safe! Just reading your post caused my blood pressure to rise and my body to tense up. I'll need a nap to recover. BTW, I do agree about the similarity to Enya.

All in all
I don't like this one.
I can't feel like I'm as one during this song....I feel crooked.
Cool idea of putting "Imagine" by John Lennon next to thins song. One song sings about how things will be wonderful when everyone stops believing in God, and the other song sings about how things will be wonderful when everyone becomes one God.
Though, I think it would have been better to put "Imagine" after "Soon Love Soon" in the playlist.

This one falls into the latter. Can it.
Can't agree - I listened through the words into the music and found some wonder
