The #AlternateFridayMusic cue this week is: #ThatStripedSunlightSound

A pop sounding song that lyrically is about death, loss, hurt, and saying goodbye while reflecting on life's joys (seasons in the sun).

Terry Jacks - Seasons in the Sun

Happy Friday ... I can't believe how fast it got here. It's #AlternateFridayMusic day, and the prompt is #ThatStripedSunshineSound.

Sunshine - Earth, Wind & Fire

I don't know if it's striped, but the sunshine in this song is "heavenly" (I imagine God rays coming down from the clouds, like in paintings).

And, to be very loose and metaphorical, maybe the backup vocal harmonies and the call & response and the short horn bursts all "stripe" the melody.

This song just never stops moving -- and it lifts off towards heaven around 3:21.

(I gather that the song title the prompt is based on is actually #ThatStripedSunlightSound -- not sunshine)

King Crimson - Fallen Angel

While the original (from Red) is excellent, this live version with the 3-drummer lineup is so gorgeous...
