TOP TEN FREETHINKER SONGS : NUMBER TWO

In at number two on my personal top ten freethinker songs;
Alice Cooper-School's Out




I remember it well, that sunny warm summer day in July 1979, thirty-two* years ago when I picked up my bag and walked out of school for the last time.
Up the small ramp onto the path leading up and along and onto the pavement.
Goodbye school.
I sang this all the way home. I'm still singing it now. Leaving school was the best thing I ever did.** I can feel an echo of joy at the sudden total freedom. Hated school, me.
And then I had to walk into work and grown up life.
No deity involved.

*Goodness, how the years fly!
**And even now I wake up from some flashback-dream and am thankful it's all over, I don't have to go anymore.

TOP TEN FREETHINKER SONGS : NUMBER THREE

We're almost at number one in my personal top ten freethinker songs, and in at number three is;
Cat Stevens-Moonshadow



The tale goes that a kid from an urban environment with lots of artificial light is standing on the coast in a more natural place and sees his shadow by the light of the moon.
And nothing is ever the same again.
No mention of a deity or a need for one, just a kid discovering there is more to life than what he had always known.
