Overall, this is a pretty easy song. The hardest part is probably getting
the timing down. Just listen to the track once or twice to get it right.

| So why did he leave the UK almost a decade ago and make his "official" home in Monte Carlo? | |

| I agree with you, Mindhuntress. Justin Hayward is actually a very conservative homebody. He's been married to the same woman for years, has one daughter (who recently married) and I've heard several people who know him state that he is the very opposite of the Rock Star kind of guy. BTW, anyone who has been to the U.K. can relate to the English sunset line....wish I could be there right now! | |
