In 1981 Kevin did an interview on Radio 1, where he stated true or not that he listened to Aretha Franklin's say a little prayer every morning, I was 17 and his enthusiasm for life lifted my spirits, loved his bravery and music ever since..

Rows and flows of angel hair And ice cream castles in the air And feather canyons everywhere Looked at clouds that way But now they only block the sun They rain and they snow on everyone So many things I would have done But clouds got in my way I've looked at clouds from both sides now From up and down and still somehow It's cloud illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels The dizzy dancing way that you feel As every fairy tale comes real I've looked at love that way But now it's just another show And you leave 'em laughing when you go And if you care, don't let them know Don't give yourself away I've looked at love from both sides now From give and take and still somehow It's love's illusions that I recall I really don't know love Really don't know love at all Tears and fears and feeling proud To say, "I love you" right out loud Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I've looked at life that way Oh, but now old friends they're acting strange And they shake their heads and they tell me that I've changed Well something's lost, but something's gained In living every day I've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all It's life's illusions that I recall I really don't know life I really don't know life at all

So: 12 stars in 10 possible! Thank you guys for those toutching songs and videos !

I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with the original version of this song! It’s a captivating melody. The lyrics are beautiful, yet sad in a way. But the clincher is Joni. Mitchell’s melancholy voice that always tugged at my heart. Fast forward to this innovative reincarnation from Dexys and I’m listening to this song in a whole new light! Something about the quirkiness of this up-tempo remake just makes you feel good!!! Well done 👏👏👏!
