    In '95 i would listen to the radio (we had "radios" way back then) and when this song came on, i would focus, and just be "taken away". I always used to envision early summertime, people talking, having fun in the sun and water, while a huge white anvil cloud just sits out there, completing the whole grand aesthetic... His voice IS absolutely beautiful and it still "takes me away"

    Massive Howard fan, but this clip is another example of how back in the Krock days the little respect Howard had for some of the insanely talented people that came through his doors. Because Christopher wasn’t Paul McCartney, Howard doesn’t care and his tone is almost disrespectful.
