Top Ten Van Morrison songs

3)Summertime in England - "It's not why why why why, it just is." Amid the swirl of romantic poets, Van's 15 minute swooning vibrating chant rises, cools off, and rises again. The holiest of holies. A spot and a time in England, a lifeline to poetic enchantment it feels like. The divine things in life come fast and heavy in this song. Mahalia Jackson, Colerdige, Wordsworth, William Blake, James Joyce, gospel music, the girl he's singing to and Jesus walking by Avalon. "The holy magnet, gave you attraction, and I was attracted to you." Streams of consciousness, streams of consciousness “my illuminated one,” “my high in the art of sufferin’ one.” One of Van’s truly epic, all consuming, far reaching masterpieces, his common themes all coming together and tied down to one spot and one place, with one girl, and the artist masters swirling around their heads and Jesus walking within sight.
