If it Wasn't for the Money

"All I need’s a drop of water
I’m a seed born on the wind
I was once a flower
And I’ll be a flower again"
Tea Leaf Green

Oh my goodness.
I recently attended a show with these guys and it just blew my mind.

This song seems to sum up life. I realize this is a rather bold statement but I believe it's true. The idea of a "circle of life" is laid out here perfectly...from birth, through life, to rebirth. This song also addresses other aspects of life including learning, love and money. The whole cycle idea really hit me once I read through the lyrics. Plus, the band can jam like no other, with their shows carrying on the idea of the cycle. They are able to flow through a full 2-hour set without stopping for a set break, with many songs going for more than 20-30 minutes.
