KIM MITCHELL - All We Are

The first time I saw KM was when he was with Max Webster late 1977. MW was pretty popular here at the time and I was working at a live entertainment bar/restaurant while in college. The boss handed me the 'book' and told me to pick out somebody to book and I picked out MW. Well !! The place was standing room only that night.
Twenty-eight years later I took my son to his very first concert just up the road a tad to see Kim. He had a blast, hasn't stopped talking about it since. (he actually signs and uses a voice-output device to talk but he hears just fine)
So, what with my sons birthday coming up in February, I'll dedicate my next video to him and his very first concert. A song that came out the same year he was born.
Oh, and in case you noticed Kim's hat and don't know what O.P.P. stands for ? Ontario Provincial Police

Beautiful Satiation

Beautiful Satiation
     
We carefully search for beauty where beauty never stood
I never did attain it, I knew I never could
The simple shapes of earth cannot satiate my need
I need true beauty; beauty like the world can never see
Mirrors lie and people judge the faults they themselves reflect
Pointing out my problems while ignoring their own regrets
Beauty is elusive, serpentine, slick, and rare
We find angelic features aplenty but true beauty isn’t there
Reflected not by mirrored glass, but in our good deeds
True beauty lies locked within our souls, and love is the only key

Sunset Thinking

Do you ever watch the sunset
And just sit and think about things
Just you and the sky and darkness
Giving your thoughts some wings

Perhaps you’re got some troubles
And don’t know what to do
Or you just plain need to get away
To spend a little time with you

Sunset beauty makes you feel as though
Your life has meaning after all
To see a sight so extraordinary
Makes you feel capable, strong and tall

It’s funny how flashes of color
Like a sunset or sunrise can inspire
It can calm your inner self a bit
It’s a scene you can never tire

The serenity gives you a chance
To put things in perspective
Life can be overwhelming at times
And a sunrise can be reflective

So when the sky lights up next time
Let your gaze do some drinking
Soak up and the amazing sights
And do some sunset thinking!
