Kaleidoscope 02:49
Are you saying that life is like Life is like a light That you're hoping to see Unknown colours Surrounding now A Kaleidoscope Has this all been a dream Live your life See the sunshine in the sky In the summer breeze Summer breeze Leave it all behind 'Cause today you're gonna find That it all comes round in the end Hear the sound carving out many different way In the call of the waves Everything becomes and then Then it is erased Has it all been the same Live your life See the sunshine in the sky In the summer breeze Summer breeze Leave it all behind 'Cause today you're gonna find That it all comes round in the end Live your life See the sunshine in the sky In the summer breeze Summer breeze Leave it all behind 'Cause today you're gonna find That it all comes round in the end

Review:-

The ability to combine these multiple sumptuous guitar based genre..s is impressive. Sun Drive is a signature road-trip, a track order which runs through historical icons - A cool breeze to freshen your dusty, heat ridden brow from the most vicious of balmy afternoons. Spiritual strumming reminiscent of George Harrison and structured arrangements within the frame of an early Peter Gabriel epic, you..re really going to appreciate the lack of emotional gimmickry and limitless escapism this record throws out at you - A carefully worked out audio time line, notably uncomplicated and multi-dimensional in every sense, set your controls to the heart of the sun. -- Mojophenia
