Cat Stevens - Lilywhite

Always been a fan of Cat Stevens (Yusuf) music. My wife passed last April and I was just watching After Life. The final scene with Lilywhite playing took my breath away. Whew.

I expected a lot of After Life viewers and that's what I see.

When you rock and roll with me

Afterlife

Afterlife , what a superb soundtrack . This is a classic .

🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼

Ricky Gervais is brilliant.

QUESTA È UNA GRANDE CANZONE PERÒ AD UN CERTO PUNTO SI INGRIPPA

Amazing song, after life has meant so much to me having lost my wife to cancer two years ago

Back up on the mended road 
I pause 
Taking time to check the dial 

And the Lilywhite 
I never knew her name 
But she'll be passing my way sometime again. 

I raise my hand and touch the wheel 
Of change 
Taking time to check the dial 

Thank the Lilywhite 
I never knew her name 
But she'll be passing my way sometime again. 
But she'll be passing my way sometime again.

La canzone di Cat Stevens è tra le migliori ma ad un certo punto si ingrippa per perdersi un vero peccato

Se mi togliete i commenti non ne faccio più

Sentite ha due minuti si ingrifa completamente peccato

I was depressed in 1972. This song filled me with hope... I used to listen to it over and over. It probably saved my life...

Boy this brought make memories. I bought this album when I was about 15 or 16 and I am now 64!!!! My wall was strewn with posters of the guy ! I was in love 😍. And I still feel the same now listening to his music. He certainly stood the test of time as he still sings. well now.

One of my favorites and only recently understood the words. Apparently it's about his time of severe sickness with tuberculosis. He was passing in and out of consciousness and the nurse wearing white (plus the large white hat they wore in those days) would come in and attend to him.

and she came by again.

Maybe the Cat's best song. Shivers all over with every listen.

After Life. Brilliant song (knew it was Yusuf Cat Stevens instantly, although it was first time I’d heard it). What a lovely end to an emotional series. Well done RG

i came here after listening to a brilliant interview of ricky on desert island discs...his favourite songs
...his song choices are quite interesting and overall quite lovely. i also adored 'afterlife'...hia interview broght me to 'lilywhite'-sigh

The last guitar chords he’s strumming is ”Don’t be shy”

Heard this just now on Afterlife...........thanks Ricky x

I just watched After life again, to prepare myself for Series 2.
I had not recognised this song, but knew the singer.
How fascinating to see so many on here led by the same music.
Cat Stevens/Yusuf is a pied piper of sorts.
He was my husband’s favourite before his death 3 weeks ago.
Thank you Ricky for sharing your brilliance.

after "After Life"

Was a big fan of Cat Stevens back in the day....how the hell did I never hear this song!!. Thank you Afterlife....now to learn it on the guitar.

Sublime!

Thanks afterlife reuniting me with this little beauty

Bellísimo!

I used to play for church. This is one I snuck into the lineup. I just played it slowly.

This is Ricky Gervais's favourite song to take to the Desert Island;) He mentioned it when he was on desert island discs in 2007.

This Man's Music is Absolutely Magic,My Wife & i set Troubled on ready 4 when My Daughter was born that was the First Thing we Hear as a Family...God Bless Cat Stevens Soul He is So Amazing!

Afterlife

Name any song written in the last thirty years as beautiful and haunting as this. Go ahead, I dare you. Take your time...... Yeah, that's what I thought.

Ma préférée....la plus mystérieuse la plus mystique ce 🎻 si magnifique un paon mauve ...

I played this for church. Really slowly on the pipe organ. I never fessed up to who wrote it. I love Cat!

Meravigliosa!

Quant'è bella, d'una bellezza immortale...

Probably one of the most Beautiful, Mystic songs ever written about Life. With his brilliant approach to music and his reflections, he says more in a few lyrics than a long story would convey.

After Life brought me here.

Always reminds me of Harold and Maude.

2022 immenso CAT STEVENS...

The best pop Song ever. These are the realms where music can save lifes.

Beautiful! Cat/Yousef....I don't care. Just happy he is back. 😘

For the people that came from After Life. Ricky played this song 20 years ago in his radio show in XFM with Steve and Karl. He's a big Cat Stevens and Bowie fan.

This highlight of this song is the end with the guitar and the strings. The whole song is a brilliant orchestration!!!

The orchestral arranger deserves a lot of credit as well.

😊
