Living in the Past (3:21)
From Original Masters and 106 other releases
Song from a bygone era, with musicality seldom seen in the 2000’s.
The Living In The Past Songfacts reports: One of the most famous aspects of this song is its nonstandard time signature: It uses 5/4. This puts it in the category of “quintuple meter,” where there’s five beats per measure. If you need some more familiar context, try singing the lyrics to “Living in the Past” to the tune from the theme from the TV show Mission: Impossible. But not too loud, lest the whole office hear you.

Jethro Tull – Living in the Past
Send ‘Living in the Past’ Ringtone to Cell
Happy and I'm smilin', walk a mile to drink your water
You know I'd love to love you and above you there's no other
We'll go walking out while others shout of war's disaster
