I just love the song "Wild World."

"OOOOH BA-BY BA-BY IT'S A WIIIIIIILD WORRRRRRLLLD ... DAHDAHA DAHDA DAH ... IT'S HARD TO GET BY ... JUST UPON A SMILE ... "

The man is simply phenomenal ...

I remember being a kid, lying in bed at night, listening to AM radio with my little earphone...Cat was on top of the charts and in heavy rotation...

He really is a master songwriter with a great voice, and really organic production...very "woody'...

Cat Stevens is lovely. My favorite song is "miles from nowhere"

 

I really like his music as well. My favourite albums are 'Teaser and The Firecat' and 'Tea For The Tillerman'
I love the songs 'Where Are You?'(it gets me worried about my close ones) and 'Father and Son'
He is truly a legend. Can't believed he sold all his guitars. oh my.
