In 2010 I saw Fool’s Garden live. The occasion was a Uriah Heep concert, organised by a company celebrating their 100th anniversary (Alpina, Ober-Ramstadt). Fool’s Garden had one world–wide hit, Lemon Tree. And this one line immediately resonated in my head when I heard today’s prompt:
isolation – is not good for me
Incidentally, Fool’s Garden addressed the one-hit-wonder phenomenon at this concert. Do they mind that they are always asked to play this one song? Do they get sick of playing Lemon Tree? And they said: No, why would they? Without this song they would have never seen the world like they did, they would have never had a tour of Japan (they had more tours, I’m sure, but “Japan” stuck in my mind). They would probably not be able to work and live comfortably as fulltime musicians for the rest of their lives.
