I have always felt the saying "expect the unexpected" was overused. Especially in the 80's. However, I have come to really appreciate that saying when it comes to you. There are times, and this was one of them, that I had an idea of how this song would go. I was WAY off. I thought it was going to be faster and convey a strong stance type of sound. I came across as humble and a "pondering" kind of song.
Anyway, I love the feel of this song. The melody is outstanding! Actually, I would say the whole song it.
I need to know that someone’s listening
Cause I can’t go this one alone
I need to know the cross is empty
And that they rolled away the stone
This is easily one of the coolest lines. I love it!
Great song David!
