Of course we've all seen the movie but it's still just so amazing and unbelievable at how great he was as an artist and musician. He's easily a top 5 artist of any music genre in my opinion. The man was a genius. :wow:

I just learned all of the lyrics and sang to this joint with my eyes closed. :salute:

If you dont realize what the song is saying, it's that Other countries/cities welcome him in. They make an effort to try to come live there. They love him. "Other arms reach out to me, Other eyes smile tenderly"

But he's a real Georgian. And even though it's the HEART of WHITE SUPREMACY, he cannot explain that why in his most peaceful dreams he sees himself back there. Remember, this was a very well-traveled brother. While some of yall will never leave the state and die on the very block that you "claim" :mjlol:, he had been overseas and all that. "Still in peaceful dreams I see, the road leads back to you." :whew: Brother was spitting a DAMN ANTHEM. I love Ray Charles man. That is the epitome of the Black American experience personified through SOUND.
