The story behind the song

This song, recorded in the summer of 1969 at Warner Publishing Studio in New York City, is the opening track on Van Morrison's 1970 solo album, Moondance. It recalls a quasi-mystical experience the artist had as a child, where "everything seemed to stop" and "time stood still" for a few minutes. A biographer described the song as remembering "how it was when you were a kid and just got stoned from nature and you didn't need anything else."
