Cat
Stevens是一位真正的嬉皮士，他具有一切隐士的特质，能够超然于名利之上：他本是英伦60年代著名的流行偶像，20岁如日中天之际突然神秘退出歌坛，几年后再度出山，却改头换面，玩起了民谣，而且玩出了大名堂，事业大成之际又断然退出歌坛，开始潜心研究伊斯兰教...

他的作品有别于同时代其他同型歌手，对各国民间音乐都有很深的研究和探索，并将其融入到自己的作品中，同时他还是位发烧大拿，非常讲究唱片的录音效果。这张Tea
For The
Tillerman是他的代表作，也是史上最重要的民谣唱片之一，Mr.Big曾经翻唱过其中那曲著名的Wild
World，再度风靡一时。

Morning Has Broken

As sung by Cat Stevens

lyrics by Eleanor Farjeon

Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for the springing fresh from the world

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day
