IWM's Bonus Song Of The Week: Don't Be Shy

[InvisibleWolfMan]

Wait! A bonus song?!? Yes, I'm THAT crazy this week to use not one but TWO songs. This is mainly because it was recently my son's birthday and this song happens to be one of his favorites. It also comes from a performer that is one of my absolute favorites right up there with AC/DC and Prince. Specifically written for the film HAROLD AND MAUDE, it didn't get officially released on any album until the mid-80's. HAROLD AND MAUDE also happens to be one of my favorite films and if you haven't seen it then I recommend that you find it from somewhere and watch it at least once in your drab, wretched lives...

HAROLD AND MAUDE Opening:



Cat Stevens - Don't Be Shy

Don't be shy
Just let your feelings roll on by
Don't wear fear
Or nobody will know you're there
Just lift your head
And let your feelings out instead
Now don't be shy
Just let your feelings roll on by

You know love
Is better than a song
Love is where
All of us belong
So don't be shy
Just let your feelings roll on by
Don't wear fear
Or nobody will know you're there
That you're there
You're there
You're there
You're there
You're there
You're there
You're there
You're there
You're there

Don't be shy
Just let your feelings roll on by
Don't wear fear
Or nobody will know you're there
Just lift your head
And let your feelings out instead
Now don't be shy
Just let your feelings roll on by

Now there's music fan. Can't be satisfied with just a song a week. What a great song. I'd never heard it. Thanks.

Glad you liked it! Haven't you scooped yourself up something like THE VERY BEST OF CAT STEVENS? If not, get that one. A really nice overview of his career.

Not yet, but I don't see myself buying yet another metal album anytime soon so I'll give it a look. I need more folk in my diet.
