    This is a GREAT song!
    I love everything about it: the many transitions, the organ sounds like old Hammond & reminiscent John Lord , the drums, the background accompanying vocals, the lyrics..... "I am the man whose lost his name." .....
    "I am the future living in the past."
    "I am the Legend of lost love and pain."
    "I am the man whose lost his name."
    Yeah, I can see how he could write that.
    Great job, Ben Orr Band!!!
    Reminds me of older Deep Purple.
    Beautiful video montage, atsejam!!

      @@reneechristopher2121 Hi Renee! I think Ben was talking about substances in the blood that connect a man to the divine. "I am the river that flows nowhere", "I am the drug your body's been missing". The point is who does he mean when he says "your"? Who is he talking to? Possibly someone who appears human but doesn't have that divine substance that links them to God? "I am the soul that you've been waiting for." Was he saying there are beings here that don't have souls perhaps? Just conjecturing, but his lyrics intrigue me.

      @@April-pw5ub Benjamin was the opposite way on stage than he was in real life. He would never think anything like the chorus of this song because he was humble. He is absolutely referencing the difference between his fame and who he was in real life.
      He introduced himself to me as Benjamin Orzechowski and kissed the back of my hand after he shook it.
      So he did loose his name because of fame, and women were absolutely addicted to him performing on stage, but this was part of the price he paid for fame. He fiercely protected people he loved from the not so pleasant side of his fame. He ejected a woman from a small venue where his band was playing when she chose to inform everyone in the venue that we were kissing in the lobby. I wanted to give her a piece of my mind and he stopped me by saying “She is drunk, sweetheart, and she doesn’t mean anything by it” and he never broke his embrace of me.
      I miss him! ❤️

      I am the cure that that has no name
      I am the wind you cannot feel
      I am the truth that is not real
      I am the river that flows nowhere
      I am the feeling that does not care
      I am the drug that your body's been missing
      I am the soul you've been wishing for......
      I Am
      I Am
      I Am
      I Am A MAN

    I dwell on who you once were because I want Moving In Stereo to keep going. I guess It can, but I must let you go. You're not Ben Orr anymore. Bye Bye Love

    Total lookalike for sexy Rutger Hauer. Great song, slightly ghostly tones to it...

    There is nothing wrong with his vocals. Yes it’s different from that CARS sound but it’s refreshing and he is oh so hot still ❤️❤️❤️RIP Benjamin
