Am still listening to this every now and then. It's just plain beautiful: sometimes it makes me dance and sometimes makes me cry.

Woke up today dreaming of this song. What a glorious day!

I enjoyed my childhood in the 90's because of the beautiful lover's rock music produced at that time.

@andrewcanady6644
