this last generation is void of passion and also commit themselves to an art their form of it is using generated, beats and loops, putting them together for background music and then talking over top of it, and mostly is about garbage that they think is interesting. l when most times it’s nasty perverted, violent shit that really doesn’t have a place in music so there’s nothing put into it as far as artistic value in order to appreciate anything creative or artistic you have to have passion so the music fits the times like music always has 60s. It was about peace and love 70s and 80s. It was about access and partying in the 90s love it was about being depressed and violent. Now we moved into basically just mindless street trash. I found it fascinating to learn how to play instruments and I found it more than just relaxation to create it with other people. It was the thing that kept me sane In a in sane life and world I always admired the guy. He’s before my time a little bit. I was a little kid when he was making music in the 70s loving the base brought me to hear. I know the song I just didn’t realize it was him. I’m not surprised because he was incredibly talented. He invented the slap and plucking on the bass which i utilized often In fact, I learned it from instruction video my brother had of him. his vocals are just like his bass warm rich great vibrato

Most plp. think this song is about a man and human love. But the story behind the song is that Mr. Graham had started studying the Bible, and soon after became a dedicated Jehovah's witness .He told of his experiences at a convention some years ago, and I was blessed to be there. No wonder it is such a soul stirring song ....

Love had played its game on me so long. I started to believe I'd never find anyone. Doubt had tried to convince me to give in, Said you can't win. But one day the sun it came a shinin' through. The rain had stopped, and the skies were blue. And oh, what a revelation to see. Someone was saying "I love you " to me. A one in a million, chance of a lifetime. And life showed compassion. And sent to me a stroke of love called you. A one in a million you. I was a lonely man with empty arms to fill. Then I found a piece of happiness to call my own. And life is worth living again. For to love you to me is to live. A one in a million, chance of a lifetime. And life showed compassion. And sent to me a stroke of love called you. A one in a million you. A one in a million, chance of a lifetime. And life showed compassion. And sent to me a stroke of love called you. A one in a million you.
