There are mountains in our way
But we climb a step every day
Love lift us up where we belong
Where the eagles cry
On a mountain high

Joe Cocker died today of lung cancer at age 70. I never cared much for his rock stuff - his Beatles covers were awful - but when he belted a beautiful ballad like "Up Where We Belong," 'Edge of a Dream," or "You Are So Beautiful" he delivered a song like no one else. "You Can Leave Your Hat On" showed that he could even be lusty when he wanted to. And anyone cool enough to perform alongside John Belushi as the comedian made fun of his act had a self-deprecating sense of humor worth memorializing. Here's to you, Joe. The road is long There are mountains in our way But we climb a step every day Love lift us up where we belong Where the eagles cry On a mountain high Hear those lyrics sung here:
