    Young lady....you're only seeing the tip of the iceberg with this artist. Dig deeper. He's one of the most talented artists of our time. Unique style born from his love of the blues and is Irish heritage. He plays the sax, guitar, and piano, writes, produces and arranges. His roots are deep in the blues but he's managed to fuse his influences in brilliant ways. Like I said....dig.

      Did you know that brown eye girl was sincere?
      My understanding is that he was seeing an African woman and wrote the song (your my brown skin girl)
      He had to change the world in order to record it.
      Again this is my understanding

    My wife and I have been married for 48 years, and Van Morrison has been the soundtrack of our marriage. I introduced her to Van, when we in high school, and we’ve been listening to him ever since. You really can’t go wrong with anything by him.

    Van Morrison is what my wife and I put on for... Romance. We could be in a Walmart and if he comes on, we dance. :)
    His very best song, IMHO, is Into the Mystic. But he has a zillion hits.

    Walked down the aisle to this song in my 2nd marriage. We were both 49. Loved this song for decades and we realized this song’s lyrics fit so well. We’d both lived life and had a lot of difficult times. He was a veteran. Just a perfect song.
    And this time I got it right. He is my soul mate.
    Great reaction.

  • @soundsuitestudios-b-9723
    @soundsuitestudios-b-9723 Před 3 lety +19

    The woman who all of his early songs (Brown Eyed Girl, Crazy Love, Moondance and Astral Weeks albums) were written about was his first wife, Janet Rigsbee, who he renamed Janet Planet (a name she didn't like). She left him in 1973, or as she put it, escaped. She, like many other people confused Morrison's music with the man, who was described by Joe Smith, Warner Bros' executive and the man who signed him as, "A hateful little guy." However, Smith felt that he was the greatest voice in rock and roll at the time.
    According to Janet, "The music was everything you could hope for as a romantic. The man was a prickly pear." Morrison himself openly admitted that he was not a nice person. Sadly, Janet could not reconcile the fragile dream of the songs that he claimed were true at night with his rage that had become her daily life. Of course, by this time Van was a money-making machine and everyone blamed her for his eventual musical slump that lasted thru the 80s (until 1987, when he wrote "Someone Like You," which may be about his second wife, or about looking for someone like Janet nobody knows for sure).
    As Kevin Courtney, journalist for the Irish Times put it: ". . .it's still oddly fascinating to try and square this Scrooge-like caricature with such beautiful, transcendental songs as "Sweet Thing," "Madame George," "Tupelo Honey," "Crazy Love," and "Into The Mystic." Maybe that's why Van's music has been so great - it's the only way the nice guy locked inside him can get out.

    I was reminded recently that in two days it marks an anniversary of a first date that I had 27 years ago. I went to a bar with my date and the band playing was led by a friend of mine. About an hour into the date he dedicated a song to my date and it was the signature song of Van Morrison, namely "Brown Eyed Girl". 27 years later she is still my brown eyed girl and I feel so lucky.

    A wonderful reaction to a beautiful song.
    One of the greatest artists/ musician's/ lyricist in music history.
    You should give a listen to his Album; "ASTRAL WEEKS" it's a master piece in music and poetry/ song. Some of the best musician's in the industry. All acoustic, from floor bass , guitar, strings etc. Van is a musician's musician as well.
    My take of him on the highway and traveling. Is based on him on the road all his life as a musician, making it difficult to find a true lover) soulmate. Not necessarily he was on the road looking etc.
    For the lounge sound today. But back in the day we were drinking good wine with candles, and incense burning. With pillows/cushionsc on the floor. And definitely found my soulmate. Had 45 years together.

    Nice to join you here. You have reacted to a wonderful variety of performers and artists and am looking forward to see what other.pleasant surprises you reveal.
    You might like Mr.Morrison's "Hymns to the Silence". I believe it's one of his finest. Thank you and wish you lots of sunshine and joy !
