Jon Anderson is weird

In a good way. I've always been amused by his butchering of the language (How can the wind with its arms all around me, for example - you're missing a verb there pal).......

But I was playing a board game with one of my kids (yeah remember those?) and something sounded like "Jacaranda". So I told him about the first word in the song "I'm Running". He asked what that was, and judging by what I remember of the song, said it was something like a seer or Merlin-type guy.

So we google it, then look at the lyrics...and it's a freakin PLANT! I mean, what's that got to do with the song?

"Jacaranda
Help me out tomorrow
Jacaranda
Don't want to be alone"

I don't know, I think a dog might be better....

Just like Picasso....I don't get it. But boy can he sing
