Neil Diamond has long been one of my all-time favorite singers. Even when I was a teenager and he was just getting started, I liked him. He has matured over the years and mellowed into a singer who sings from experience and isn't afraid to sing about the things in life that hurt. Morningside is such a song. It is so sad to hear about a father who made a table with his own hands, carved it and inscribed it for his children and when he died, no one wanted it. Like a lot of Neil's songs, the lyrics often touch my heart and stir memories or something inside that I can relate to. Like his song, Brooklyn Roads, Iam, I said, and Red, Red Wine. Good singing.
