Song: 'Night Moves'
Artist/Composer: Bob Seger
Album: 'Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band
Night Moves' (1976) Certified multi-platinum US & Canada
A fantastic classic from Bob Seger :) 'Night Moves' reached #4 on US Billboard Hot 100, #5 in Canada, #25 in Australia. "The song was responsible for changing Seger from being a popular regional favorite into a national star." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_M...) 'Night Moves' is one of my favorite Bob Seger songs, next to 'Till it Shines'. I love the part about waking to the sound of thunder!
A song with lots of reflection... "To a quiet acoustic guitar, the narrator, awakened by a clap of thunder and unable to fall back asleep, ponders a different sense of the title phrase. Seger said this passage was inspired by late-night self-analysis and "the uncertainty night represents": "I was thinking about the whole aura of nighttime, the four o'clock in the morning moment when you assess yourself, check your weaknesses."[9] Then the rest of the instruments fall back in, for an extended coda vamp of the chorus."
His producer "Richardson said that "the whole arrangement came together in the studio."[1] The decision for an unusual bridge (consisting of three separate movements) was inspired by the Bruce Springsteen song "Jungleland". He credited that song, in addition to the Born to Run album, with helping him complete the song: "He had like a multiple bridge, he had various different things going on, and I thought to myself, 'That's how I'll finish 'Night Moves.'" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_M...)
I've had this video up once before but it got blocked. Sometimes things change in this respect and there are others up, so I thought I'd try again. It has 9 blocks, I've put in a request for it to be unblocked in all :)
