Donovan은 포크 록과 히피 신비주의를 오랫동안 기억되는 히트 곡으로 1960년대의 서정 시인 일뿐만 아니라 인상적인 Dylan의 'DON'T LOOK BACK'을 연주하며 Maharishi를 배회하였고 Beatles와 Beach Boys 등과 함께 인디안 암자에서 은둔하였으며 'HEY GYP'이나 'SEASON OF THE WITCH'등과 같은 언더그라운드와 프로그레시브 록 스타일의 곡들을 작곡하였던 매우 독특한 시대와 연관된 주요 인물이었다. 본 음반은 그의 주요 활동 시기였던 전성기 시절의 최고 작들을 엄선하여 수록한 음반으로 총 23곡의 트랙으로 그의 모든 히트 곡들이 총 망라 되었다해도 과언이 아니다.(AMG ★★★★☆)
He's five foot-two, and he's six feet-four, He fights with missiles and with spears. He's all of thirty-one, and he's only seventeen, Been a soldier for a thousand years.
He'a a Catholic, a Hindu, an Atheist, a Jain, A Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew. And he knows he shouldn't kill, And he knows he always will, Kill you for me my friend and me for you.
And he's fighting for Canada, He's fighting for France, He's fighting for the USA, And he's fighting for the Russians, And he's fighting for Japan, And he thinks we'll put an end to war this way.
And he's fighting for Democracy, He's fighting for the Reds, He says it's for the peace of all. He's the one who must decide, Who's to live and who's to die, And he never sees the writing on the wall.
But without him, How would Hitler have condemned them at Dachau? Without him Caesar would have stood alone, He's the one who gives his body As a weapon of the war, And without him all this killing can't go on.
He's the Universal Soldier and he really is to blame, His orders come from far away no more, They come from here and there and you and me, And brothers can't you see, This is not the way we put the end to war.
Josie,I wont fail ya, I wont fail you have no fear, Josie,I wont fail ya, Give me one more chance to be as near.
The meadows they are bursting the yellow corn is in your hands, and with the night comes sorrow as the tide of dawn slips on the land.
The long breezes are blowing all down the sky into my face, Ive a worried kind of feelin that my time has come and gone to waste.
I love you darling Josie, the trees of pine they grow so tall, how can you come to love me when you didnt love me at all.
Josie,I wont fail ya, I wont fail you have no fear, Josie I wont fail ya Give me one more chance to be as near.
My Josie looks a child now as she lies beyond my breast, in the night I think about her in the day I get no rest.
I cut me a young pine cone And gave it to the river deep, It sailed way by your window where you lay so long in sleep.
God bless you darling Josie with your sparkling eyes so bright and clear, Josie,I wont fail you have no fear, Josie,I wont fail ya Give me one more chance to be as near.
When I look out my window Many sights to see And when I look in my window So many different people to be That it's strange So strange
You got to pick up every stitch You got to pick up every stitch You got to pick up every stitch Mmmm, must be the season of the witch Must be the season of the witch, yeah Must be the season of the witch

Here I stand acting like a silly clown would, I don't know why Would anybody like to try The changes I'm going through ? A hidden lie would fortify Something that don't exist But it ain't so bad, I'm just a lad, So many more things to do, I intend to come right through them all with you.
My songs are merely dreams visiting my mind We talk a while by a crooked stile, You're lucky to catch a few. There's no magic wand in a perfumed hand, It's a pleasure to be true. In my crystal halls a feather falls Being beautiful just for you But that might not be quite true, that's up to you.
Dawn crept in unseen to find me still awake A strange young girl sang her songs for me And left 'fore the day was born. That dark princess with saddening jest She lowered her eyes of woe, And I felt her sigh, I wouldn't like to try The changes she's going through But I hope love comes right through them all with you.
Sunshine came softly a-through my a-window today Could've tripped out easy a-but I've a-changed my ways It'll take time, I know it but in a while You're gonna be mine, I know it, we'll do it in style 'Cause I made my mind up you're going to be mine
I'll tell you right now Any trick in the book a-now, baby, all that I can find
Everybody's hustlin' a-just to have a little scene When I say we'll be cool, I think that you know what I mean We stood on a beach at sunset, do you remember when? I know a beach where, baby, a-it never ends When you've made your mind up forever to be mine
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm I'll pick up your hand and slowly blow your little mind 'Cause I made my mind up you're going to be mine I'll tell you right now Any trick in the book a-now, baby, that I can find
Superman or Green Lantern ain't got a-nothin' on me I can make like a turtle and dive for your pearls in the sea, yep A-you you you can just sit there while thinking on your velvet throne 'Bout all the rainbows a-you can a-have for your own When you’ve made your mind up, forever to be mine
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm I’ll pick up your hand and slowly blow your little mind When you’ve made your mind up, forever to be mine I’ll pick up your hand, I’ll pick up your hand
You will see this kind of chick in every town. Whenever there's a scene she's always hanging around She's so naa?ve and innocent, she looks at to it all She's only fourteen but she knows how to draw.
Superlungs Superlungs Superlungs She's my supergirl! Superlungs Yeah!
She doesn't get involved with blowing her cool She's too busy getting high with her classmates in school The people they ignore her, they would if they could She ain't quite grown up yet but her credence's real good.
Superlungs Yeah, come on! She's my supergirl! Superlungs Yeah Supergirl Superlungs. My!
Superlungs Superlungs Superlungs She's my supergirl! Superlungs Fly, take off, now take off, fly! Hey come on!

I dwell in the north in the green country, Far I'm here, far I'm here And I take to my rest at the end of day, Whilst o'erhead pretty stars do play. And then I dream along, Then I make a song About everything that I've known and felt, And it makes my sadness melt Then I wake up in the funny old kind of day, The rain has gone away, Watching the children sing and play In the garden and the roadway. Up comes a little one singing a song About a friend she knows called Rosie. Off to the greenwood you must go, bring-a me one fine posie. All of a sudden I'm light as air, I feel sad as a butterfly. Oh, I dwell with my pride and my songs and things Wearily, oh so wearily And I dream of the girl with the sunshine eye Sundaily, whatever she may be. And then I dream along Then I make a song About everything that I've known and felt And it makes my sadness melt.

Thrown like a star in my vast sleep I opened my eyes to take a peek To find that I was by the sea Gazing with tranquility

The continent of Atlantis was an island Which lay before the great flood In the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean. So great an area of land, That from her western shores Those beautiful sailors journeyed To the South and the North Americas with ease, In their ships with painted sails. To the East Africa was a neighbour, Across a short strait of sea miles. The great Egyptian age is
But a remnant of The Atlantian culture. The antediluvian kings colonised the world All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas In all legends from all lands were from far Atlantis.
Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth. On board were the Twelve:
The poet, the physician, The farmer, the scientist, The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends. Though Gods they were - And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind Let us rejoice And let us sing And dance and ring in the new Hail Atlantis!

Should you wander this land to the North, And few seldom do, Should you follow the song of the gull To enchanted western isles, Coax a fisherman to take you out Where the silky seals are seen, Hear the stories that they tell about The maiden who is their queen, The maiden who is their queen. Celia of the seals, She knows just how they feel, Celia of the seals. "Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay" "Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay" Seal hunters are not brave and bold, They murder her poor wee seals And cut off their skins to be sold, Cursed be he who deals. There's no reason for this slaughtering, They're left on the rocks to bleed He's not a man who does this thing, It's a cruel and a heartless deed, A cruel and a-heartless deed. Celia of the seals, She knows just how they feel, Celia of the seals. Celia of the seals, Celia of the seals, She knows just how they feel, Celia of the seals, Celia of the seals, Celia of the seals, "Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay" "Voyna, voyna, voyna, voyna voyna vay"
God is playing marbles With his planets and his stars Creating havoc through my life Through his influence on Mars That's why I'm stumbling down the highway On my boots of steel I should be rolling down the skyway On my cosmic wheels
In the present position of the planets It's impossible for me to say Just when I'll find my course again With these boulders in my way I should be rolling down the skyway On my cosmic wheels Instead of stumbling down this highway On my boots of steel I should be rolling down the skyway On my cosmic wheels
