Alan Simon: Studio "Mulinetti", Recco, Italy: "Peace on Earth" was to be the last song ever recorded at Mulinetti and so when the session began, our spirits were low. But we had to pull ourselves together because we knew Heather Small would be arriving soon. She was to be the last artist to record in this legendary studio and she knew it. Like an unexpected tornado, this great soul singer gave the studio a send-off to be remembered, a grand finale, an apotheosis. This hymn to peace, dedicated to George Harrison, will remain forever engraved in our memories and I think you'll know why when you hear it. Appears On Gaia (2003) Alan Simon

Lyrics »

Everyday I hear the same story A one way ticket alone Everyday I feel the same fury You know it's bringing me down Not a word, not a soul, not a smile Just broken hearts made of stone Everyday I hear the same story We've got to find a new song For peace on Earth everybody can sing For peace on Earth it's a beautiful dream For peace on Earth everybody can sing For peace on Earth Everyday, people in the street Where are they all going to? Everyday, faces that you meet Heads they win, tails you lose As the day just slips away slowly There must me some path to choose Everyday I hear the same story So what on earth can we do? Everyday I hear the same story A one way ticket alone Everyday I hear the same fury And love comes tumbling down Not a hope, not a sign, not a friend You've got to swim or you drown Everyday I hear the same story We've got to find a new song
