There are so many of his songs ingrained in my psyche, that are part of me... but the one that I floats to the top, every time I try to find a favorite, is Don Quixote. Having been a lit major, I read both Don Quixote and the bio of Miguel de Cervantes, but this song goes beyond that story. One of my best friends is a struggling musician, a man who writes and sings the most beautiful stories of his life... much like the man this site is dedicated to, I suppose. For me, this song has become the story of the performer himself, a man with something to say, a passion for shining light into the darkness.
Perhaps there's a bit of the old knight in all of us...
