Some music ages so well...




I'm up at 5:30am every morning for a 5K run. This morning my legs were stiff and my thighs burning from extra mileage I put in over the weekend. As I rounded the last bend and mustered strength for one more hill, The Who's Tommy pounded through my iPod;


Listening to you,
I get the music.
Gazing at you,
I get the heat.
Following you,
I climb the mountains.
I get excitement at your feet.

Right behind you,
I see the millions.
On you,
I see the glory.
From you,
I get opinions.
From you,
I get the story. 

The music made me come alive and I charged up the hill and sprinted to the finish as if I was on fresh legs. I was only nine years old when The Who recorded Tommy. I knew virtually nothing about it until a decade later in college. I liked it, but not enough to buy a copy. Now thirty years later, and more than forty since the album's release, I catching up with it again. Some music ages really well.
