The first time I heard this song was the Beck version featured on the soundtrack of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and I fell in love at first listen. Its an incredibly beautiful song. Looking for something to post tonight, I remembered this one and on searching a bit I found out that this was originally written and performed by a 80s band called The Korgis and that Zucchero had also covered it. My favourite version though is still Beck’s.
The lyrics are simple with basically only the following 7 lines:
Change your heart
Look around you
Change your heart
It will astound you
I need your lovin’
Like the sunshine
Everybody’s gotta learn sometime
I guess it had such deep resonance for me at that time since I was trying to learn, to grow up, to change. It will be great if at least one person is touched on hearing this song, as I was. So I share…
