Spin Spin / Gordon Lightfoot
 

So fine, so fine the web you spin, I come too close Originally released in the early 60's..it was not released on an album until 1993..when his 1969 album Sunday Concert..was re-released as Sunday Concert Plus..the original Sunday concert was a live album..Gord's fifth..and fulfilled his stormy contract for 5 albums with United Artists..it definitely gives you a great example of his pre-album 'fame'..and you can hear the early recording "faux pas" because of the 'ancient' equipment of that time's recording studios..I set the music to a slideshow of 'blue scenery'..for no other reason but it is comforting to look at..so enjoy one of Gord's earliest works..thanks again Gord for a lifetime of musical mastery..krazykritik Mike..P.S. this was also recorded by another Canadian legend..Stompin' Tom Connors..

Spin, Spin, ©1966 by Gordon Lightfoot

So fine, so fine the web you spin,
I come too close and I'm caught again!
In the web of wild design,
I do not know what fate is mine!
All the day sit and spin,
Spin your web and you draw me in.
Spin, spin, spin, spin!

And my daddy said when I was young,
"Beware the web of love, my son,
To be in love is to be insane,
Make an old man groan, a young man pain!"
All the day, sit and spin,
Spin your web and you draw me in.
Spin, spin, spin, spin!

Then I did go and the time did fly,
Many a true love passed me by.
And then you came like a blinding storm,
I landed in your web so warm,
Spin your web and you draw me in.
Spin, spin, spin, spin!

So fine, so fine the web you spin,
I come too close and I'm caught again!
In the web of wild desire,
And I cannot control the fire!
All the day sit and spin,
You spin your web and you draw me in.

It's an awesome song,no doubt.

Nice clip, although I'd prefer the origianl black and white one from the 1960s,were he's performing it live. ;)

As rare as this song is, I was miraculously able to find it and download it off of Limewire and burn it onto a CD. Usually only the famous songs can be found on there. If I look up a less common song like this, either it doesn't return any search results, or the results will either be queeued (think that's the word for it) or will not download. :(
