I'm 72. Our garage band played this in '68 for the local March of Dimes Telethon. After we packed up, we stopped at a local bar for some water. When we told the bartender what we were doing out there, he invited us to play for the bar. We unloaded, set up in a corner and played a few songs for them. They all told us how good we sounded. We left feeling really proud of ourselves. Man, did we ever suck! But it at 16, we thought we were it! Love the memories!

My father was a sailor. He was nine years old when this masterpiece was out. He loved it and he was listening to it in any possible way he could. He was the person who taught me to appreciate this kind of music. Pink Floyd, Rainbow, Zeppelin, Animals. The last years we've been living apart, he didn't have access to the internet so I've been playing this song at KZbin and put him on speaker. He was always singing along. This song kept him company through his childhood, his adult life and his last years. Now that I lost him, it keeps me company. I've lost him a month ago and if it was allowed by the church, this is the song I would choose for his memorial. I hope he sings this song wherever he is.

Love the animals: Don't let me be misunderstood, Don't bring me down, it's my life, when I was young, we gotta get out of this place.
