"Pacing The Cage" by Bruce Cockburn
Canadian singer/songwriter Bruce Cockburn never set fire to the US music charts, but he hasn't had a complete absence either. He hit #21 in 1980 with "Wondering Where The Lions Are" and #88 in 1985 with "If I Had A Rocket Launcher". Cockburn has amassed a remarkable number of songs over his 40 year career, but this one always stops me in my tracks. This melancholy acoustic ballad comes from his 1996 record, "The Charity of Night".
