Angeliou - Van Morrison


"Walkin' on a city street
who would think you could ever be touched
By a total stranger, not me
But when you came up to me that day
and I listened to your story
It reminded me so much of myself
It wasn't what you said but the way it felt to me
About a search and a journey just like mine"

And then: "Will You Be My Baby?"

Gorgeous.

We do appreciate that you are fans of / are promoting Van, but Exile would greatly appreciate your co-operation in removing your links to the pirate files in question.

Thank you for respecting the artist's and labels' wishes and, if you / your readers want good quality, non-pirated, preview tracks from Van's new album - "Keep It Simple" - full versions of "That's Entrainment" and "Behind The Ritual" (along with album track samplers) are available for fans and bloggers to link to on Lost Highway's web-site at http://www.losthighwayrecords.com .

Up-to-the-minute info on Keep It Simple and Van’s 2008 shows is, of course, also available on www.vanmorrison.com and www.myspace.com/vanmorrison and, for a limited period, you can still hear Van's exclusive BBC concert at http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio2_aod.shtml?radio2/r2_vanmorrison and you can also see his BBC sessions at http://www.bbc.co.uk/musictv/vanmorrison/video/ .

Hmm. I'm sure I've read that message somewhere else.

I'd like someone to write in and apologise for Van Morrison being such a miserable, cantankerous old git, who, unaccountably, writes beautifully touching songs.

It's all part of the Van experience I guess. He is the Man after all!
