    This is my grandfather's favorite song. He'd ask me to play it over and over for him. When i got older i'd play it for him while cutting his hair! the more i hear this song the more i miss him. Cool dude!

      Hey i read your comment a while ago, and came back to it because i feel like your Grandfather about it.
      I could hear it over and over again, and something in other songs from Paul McCartney for example always make me think of this one.
      Maybe it’s something in the chord progression, i don’t know since i am not a music expert, but i listen a lot of music all kinds of music, sometimes until i kinda heard enough of them.
      But never this song. (Sorry for my mediocre English. :) )

      I think there’s a disco influence (maybe) that gets into his blues in the 70s. This is one of my favourites...

    I'm praying for a speedy recovery for Mr. B.B. King. I pray that God puts a protective shield around him and protect him from all hurt, harm and danger. God cover Mr. King with your blood in Jesus name Amen. My dad loved Mr. B.B. Kings music and I grew up as a child listening to his music. I have seen Mr. King in concert many times and I must say that I never heard anyone play a guitar like him. Get well Mr. King because Lucille needs you to strike a chord on her guitar. I love this song because it has a meaning when you listen to the words. My song is a serious matter. It reflects what I feel. If I say I love you, I meant because in my song every line is for real. Every man and woman, enjoys going home to a peaceful situation. To give love and receive love without any complications. I like to live the love that I sing about in my song. Music is love and my love is music in perfect harmony. So, when I sing, I have sung all about the love of you and me. I never get a angry with my guitar because when I strike a chord, it gives me what I want to hear. So, I'm finding out that we are quite like my song together my dear. When my dad was in the hospital I would always put my arms around him and sing those words to him. I wish Mr. King peace and many blessings.

      Rest in heaven Master B.B. King. I use to sit back and listen to B.B. King with my dad when I was a little girl. What a legend Mr. King was and I'm so happy that I was able to see him in concert and was able to meet him and shake his hand. The way he started off playing that guitar in concert was simply amazing. It was almost like he had Lucille talking to you and he would have the audience so deep into his music that you would zone out to this beautiful place that you always dreamed of. His music always made me think about my dad who has made his transition to be with the Lord. Master King you will be greatly missed.

    It reflects what I feel
    If I say I love you, I mean it
    'Cause in my song
    Every line is for real
    Every man or woman
    Enjoys going home
    To a peaceful situation
    To give love and receive love
    Without any complications
    Whether my tune is short or long
    Whether my lyrics are weak or strong
    I like to live the love
    That I sing about in my song
    I like to live the love
    That I sing about in my song
    Music is love
    And my love is music
    In perfect harmony
    So when I sing
    I have sung all about
    The love of you and me
    I never got angry with my guitar
    'Cause when I strike a chord
    It gives me what I wanna hear
    So I'm finding out that
    We are quite like my song together, my dear
    Outside answers
    Should always be forbidden
    Problems should be solved
    And never hidden
    I like to live the love
    That I sing about in my song
    I like to live the love
    That I sing about in my song
