"There's a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in"--Leonard Cohen

Let the light in! -red canoe, WOaP
nice song to wake up to. thanks.
Without: I was HOPING the hed on your post referred to The Kinks, and this is such a grand reward. It's 10:30 a.m. EST and there aren't many better pop songs to wake up to than this all-but-forgotten gem. One great line after another, soaked with hope and good cheer, sung in Ray Davies' quivery-quavery- voice. I could go on and on about The Kinks and Davies' s brilliance and one day I will. In the meantime, many thanks.

(Triviata: Fountains of Wayne do a bang-up cover of this on the "This is Where I Belong" tribute CD. The song is also featured, if a fading memory still serves, as an ironic comment at the climax of Jonathan Demme's re-make of The Manchurian Candidate.)

Cheers & thanks
What a concept! I prefer optimism...life is easier with happiness and light. Thanks.
And there you go. Best start to the day all week. Thanks!
