During these dreary, rainy January days I have been searching for light and a photo to go with the song Blinded by the Light by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band. Β The song reached number one back in February 1977 and while listening to this song while growing up, I had no idea the song was written and recorded by Bruce Springsteen. Β Springsteen’s music would fall into that category for me of what music you would want to have with you if you were stranded on a mountain. Β I chose being stranded on a mountain over an island after recently watching the wonderful Idris Elba and Kate Winslet in The Mountain Between Us. Β They listened to classical music while stranded and, even though I do listen to the Manfred Mann’s Earth Band version when it’s on the radio, I have to admit that I hope I am never stranded with only either version of this song.
