For me, the levelers represent the need to break free of the burden of town and city life, and be in the countryside, and walk among the forests. 'here amongst the city lights the feelings not so good' interprets to me as being bored of city life. This music really just makes me want to run away somewhere in the great outdoors and enjoy the freedom

Love this track. Reminds me of travelling around the south of England in trailers with my brother and friends in the early '90s. Living on sites with other so called "New age travellers" (which was a terrible name) until you got evicted, living in the woods away from towns and cities was really a good experience. I didn't watch a tv for over 3 years, my mind felt cleansed lol. Probably the best time of my life. The Levellers have made some great music.

The Men an Tol (= holed stone in Cornish) is a prehistoric stone row with a unique annular stone in the centre. It's on the Penwith moors in the extreme SW. There were local superstitions eg passing someone 3 times through the hole in a particular direction would cure rickets. I was there once and found a group of people lying on their backs in a geometric pattern round the stones! Not far away is the ruined engine house of Ding Dong mine, plus a stone circle and Lanyon Quoit. A totally wonderful place.

Ah such fond memories this timeless classic rekindles...I lived in Cornwall for several years and visited this stone row among many others. Just the sheer primitiveness of being at a stone circle, it's like nothing else. I still remember stripping off and dancing naked around the Nine Ladies stone circle, until some German tourists descended from a coach!! lol Good times. Now I'm an expat abroad and no idea if or when I'll ever get home to England, what with the current tyrannical restrictions which impact expats hugely, among everybody else of course. The Levellers are my nostalgic TARDIS to happier times, free of concerns and all the stresses we face today...when life was more years ahead of you than behind and optimism, not fear, uncertainty and depression, was the norm. I feel like all I have is my memories, as to look forward with any positivity whatsoever is impossible. Wish I was 20yrs old again, back then...youth is wasted on the young. :-(
