New Cat Stevens, hooray!

[sunnyday]

This is the best new cd i've heard all year. I am transported by a great listen of a legendary songwriter and performer. Taken back to another time, Cat Stevens stopped making american music 26 years ago, back when jimmy carter was president, innocent times.... lovely good truthful music

It's called An Other Cup

 

[Rosy Cheeks]

Not really my cup of tea, but there's that great, unmistakable voice of Cat Steven... sorry, Yusuf Islam.

He put out another album in 1997, I Have No Cannons That Roar, so he's been back in the business for a while. But yes, it took him 20 years to figure out music is allowed by God.

 

[LEGI0N]

I'll pass... I loved his early stuff and I love Harold & Maude’s but now that he supports Islam he can kiss my ass. BTW, he gave up music cause Islam dose not allow it. I wonder what happened to make him get back to it.. $$$$$

Trouble
Oh trouble set me free
I have seen your face
And it's too much too much for me

Trouble
Oh trouble can't you see
You're eating my heart away
And there's nothing much left of me

I've drunk your wine
You have made your world mine
So won't you be fair
So won't you be fair

I don't want no more of you
So won't you be kind to me
Just let me go where
I'll have to go there

Trouble
Oh trouble move away
I have seen your face
and it's too much for me today

Trouble
Oh trouble can't you see
You have made me a wreck
Now won't you leave me in my misery

I've seen your eyes
and I can see death's disguise
Hangin' on me
Hangin' on me

I'm beat, I'm torn
Shattered and tossed and worn
Too shocking to see
Too shocking to see

Trouble
Oh trouble move from me
I have paid my debt
Now won't you leave me in my misery

Trouble
Oh trouble please be kind
I don't want no fight
And I haven't got a lot of time
