    Hard to believe this was 21 years ago. God where does time go. I was only a kid looking back I thought I was older.

    3:36 20+ years later and he still hits it so cleanly.

    Crazy how this particular in-studio performance is my favorite version of this song. Props to the Howard Stern crew!

    This song played at a low point in life.. reminded me I wasn't so "alone".
    Music is usually made by someone, somewhere and at some point in time that feels the same way you do through their own experience.

    My parents had the White Ladder CD when I was a teen, I usually didn't dig their music... but I loved this album. It's a like seeing an old friend hearing it again.

    What a song! Listened to many versions. Strangely it helped me heal from a toxic relationship. Perhaps not DG's intention. But it made sense to me and why I had to break away. Appreciate!

    Friday night I'm going nowhere
    All the lights are changing green to red
    Turning over TV stations
    Situations running through my head
    Looking back through time
    You know it's clear that I've been blind, I've been a fool
    To open up my heart to all that jealousy
    That bitterness, that ridicule
    Saturday I'm running wild
    And all the lights are changing red to green
    Moving through the crowds I'm pushing
    Chemicals are rushing in my bloodstream
    Only wish that you were here
    You know I'm seeing it so clear
    I've been afraid
    To show you how I really feel
    Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
    And if you want it
    Come and get it
    Crying out loud
    The love that I was
    Giving you was
    Never in doubt
    Let go of your heart
    Let go of your head
    And feel it now
    Let go of your heart
    Let go of your head
    And feel it now
    Babylon, Babylon, Babylon
    Sunday all the lights of London shining
    Sky is fading red to blue
    Kicking through the autumn leaves
    And wondering where it is you might be going to
    Turning back for home
    You know I'm feeling so alone
    I can't believe
    Climbing on the stair
    I turn around to see you smiling there
    In front of me
    And if you want it
    Come and get it
    Crying out loud
    The love that I was
    Giving you was
    Never in doubt
    Let go of your heart
    Let go of your head
    And feel it now
    Let go of your heart
    Let go of your head
    And feel it now
    Let go of your heart
    Let go of your head
    And feel it now
    Let go of your heart
    Let go of your head
    And feel it now
    Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon,
