“The Wind” (1971) by Cat Stevens

I discovered this song recently (I am 32, don't kill me) and I love it. It’s so beautiful, and calming, and sweet but somber, and the lyrics so pretty. Ugh.

I miss music like this. I wish we still had music like this these days.

Do you like it? It’s so beautiful. What are other songs like this?

R OP Thanks for sharing, beautiful. Here is one I love. It especially makes me sad because Jim Croce was so talented and he was killed in a plane crash just as he was starting to fly---no pun intended.

Gordon LIghtfoot wrote and performed a lot of beautiful songs. "If You Could Read My Mind" is probably his most famous. I also loved "Carefree Highway."

yes, The Wind is a lovely song from that era. The biggest thing that I could wish for is someone who we just shared the love of music together. That is a deep connection, in my mind.... but rather sadly, also unlikely to happen.

Cat Stevens was the first rock concert I ever saw, 1975. "The Wind" was the first song he sang, just him with guitar, sitting on a stool.

Beautiful thread, OP. Thanks for starting this. I now have quite a new (well, new to me!) artists to check out. Thank you! It's always fun to discover something that's been hidden from view.
