When you wake up in the morning and the world is crystal clear and dripping with color like honey.
Been on a bit of a Beatles kick again recently (blame The Powerpuff Girls), so here's one of my three favourite Beatles tracks.

Countdown: De Duizelende Duizend (The Staggering Thousand) Number 471. [from album: The Beatles (The White Album)] [year: 1968] https://www.facebook.com/DeDuizelendeDuizend
It is the second track in "The Beatles" album commonly known as "The White Album" So, is this one of the best songs with a woman´s name in it or what? GOD!!! "The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful, and so are you" it is just a simple gorgeous song and perhaps influenced by its meditation "context"?
The subject of the song is Prudence Farrow (Mia Farrow´s sister), who was present when the Beatles went to India to study with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Farrow was so serious about her meditation that she hardly ever came out. John Lennon was asked to "contact her and make sure she came out more often to socialize". So, how does Lennon take on this task? HE WRITES THIS!!!!!!

I do love Beatles, but sometimes I just prefer the ATU version - well Evan, Jim and Joe are just fantastic
