Maddie chose the music theme PURPOSE for this week and Eva is back! and I am late!
Now what purpose shall we go for first! Well Imogen wants to escape from the pressures of life and go back to childhood! we all often get that nasty feeling that we do not belong and that we need to escape!
Then one morning you wake up and you realize your whole life has to change and the relationship you are in just has to end! You need to find and put purpose into your life!
Another life changing purpose is the need to take life by the hand and make it a better place for everyone.
The main purpose in life is progress, I add this video because I just just love the excitement and life it exudes! Love them or hate them Take That are just a life force they have so much talent and live they are as good as their best recording!
And finally the purpose of life……….. is there anything more important?
The big wheel keeps on turning
On a simple line day by day
The earth spins on its axis
One man struggle while another relaxes
There’s a hole in my soul like a cavity
Seems the world is out to gather just by gravity
The wheel keeps turning the sky’s rearranging
Look my son the weather is changing
I’d like to feel that you could be free
Look up at the blue skies beneath a new tree
Sometime again
You’ll turn green and the sea turns red
My son I said the power of reflections over my head
The big wheel keeps on turning
On a simple line day by day
The earth spins on its axis
One man struggle while another relaxes
We sang about the sun and danced among the trees
And we listened to the whisper of the city on the breeze
Will you cry in the most in a lead-free zone
Down within the shadows where the factories drone
On the surface of the wheel they build another town
And so the green come tumbling down
Yes close your eyes and hold me tight
And I’ll show you sunset sometime again
The big wheel keeps on turning
On a simple line day by day
The earth spins on its axis
One man struggle while another relaxes
As a child solemn pray my hope hides in disguise
While satellites and cameras watch from the skies
An acid drop of rain recycled from the sea
It washed away my shadow burnt a hole in me
And all the king’s men cannot put it back again
But the ghetto sun will nurture life
And mend my soul sometime again
The big wheel keeps on turning
On a simple line day by day
The earth spins on its axis
One man struggle while another relaxes Massive Attack
Check out the other themeists.

This is a beautiful arrangement, Willow! I am so glad you did this; it’s just not the same without you. This was a tough theme too. 🙂

Hi Willow, thanks for sharing your selections with us. All these songs are new to me, I had no idea that Massive Attack wrote Hymn of the Big Wheel, I like it alot. I can relate with Alanis’ message, excellent song and choice!
It’s great to see your post today, our themes wouldn’t be complete without Imogen. 😉
Have a lovely weekend Willow.☼
