What's your favorite "Cat Stevens" song?
I have so many I can't pick just one. I was mad at him for a long time after he quit the music scene but I still kept listening to his music.

I love "Where do the Children play", "Peace Train", "My Son?", "My Lady DeArbanville". I have too many to admit and I love all of his music from the past. I also loved the soundtrack from "Harold and Maude".

What song did you like by Cat Stevens?

11. Are you sure he is? The reason I ask is because
some awful things have been attributed to him that weren't true.

15. Apparently says you can't be gay and Muslim
Offends allah or whatever. Anyhow I can disconnect that with the Cat Stevens songs I love!

14. Moon shadow
Remember the video, the little boy climbing all over the moon.

In July, my family and a bunch of friends went camping, and one night the moon was so bright, it cast these long shadows. It was very late at night and we were out walking, and my friends and I just started singing that song, That lead to a long discussion of our country and this war, and our hope and fears for our children. It was one of those peaceful moments that you remember.

Last night, when it came on the news that a singer was being held as a terrorist, my husband and I immediately knew who it was.

16. I knew it immediately
With all of his peace songs I wouldn't think that he was a terrorists.

Asscrack must have felt threatened by him.
