What are you listening to?

For some reason this song, by The Jacksons, " Can you Feel It " from their appropriately named Album, Triumph.., has been playing in my head the last couple of days, and today I decided to listen to it after a very long time and look at the lyrics.... they are just wonderful.
A good song to remind us of our humanity and oneness, at a time when frenzy, hysteria and panic, are being forced down our throats to create divisiveness.


The Jacksons
(Written and composed by Michael Jackson and Jackie Jackson )

"Can You Feel It"
Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

If you look around
The whole world is coming together now yeah

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

Feel it in the air, the wind is taking it everywhere

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

All the colors of the world should be
Lovin' each other wholeheartedly
Yes, it's all right
Take my message to your brother and tell him twice
Spread the word and try to teach the man
Who's hating his brother, when hate won't do
Cause we're all the same, 'cause the blood inside of me is inside of you

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it
Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

Sing out loud
Because we want to make a crowd yeah
Touch a hand and sing a sound so pure, salvation rings
Tell me

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it
Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

All the children of the world should be
Loving each other wholeheartedly
Yes, it's all right
Take my message to your brother and tell him twice
Take the news to the marching men,
Who are killing their brothers, when death won't do
Cause we're all the same
Yes, the blood inside my veins is inside of you
Now tell me

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it
Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

Every breath you take
Is someone's death in another place
Every healthy smile
Is hunger and strife to another child
But the stars do shine
In promising salvation, is near this time
Can you feel it now
So brothers and sisters
Show we know how
Now tell me

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it
Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

All the children of the world should be
Loving each other wholeheartedly
Yes, it's all right
Take my message to your brother and tell him twice
Take the news to the marching men,
Who are killing their brothers, when death won't do
Cause we're all the same
Yes the blood inside my veins is inside of you
Now tell me

Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it
Can you feel it, can you feel it, can you feel it

Tom Sawyer
Music: Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
Lyrics: Neil Peart and Pye Dubois

A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride
Today’s Tom Sawyer
Mean mean pride

Though his mind is not for rent
Don’t put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day’s events –
The river

What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
-Catch the mist – Catch the myth
-Catch the mystery – Catch the drift

The world is the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide

Today’s Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the space he invades
He gets by on you

No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government.
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren’t permanent –
But change is

What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
-Catch the witness – Catch the wit
-Catch the spirit – Catch the spit

The world is the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his eyes are wide

Exit the warrior
Today’s Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you
And the energy you trade
He gets right on to
The friction of the day
