Superior Soulful Soft Rock

One you might have missed or perhaps not !

As a life long fan of Ned Doheny this grabbed my attention. Driving mid tempo funk drums, infectious acoustic guitar, head nod inducing bass, call and and response arrangement between the vocals and horns. Truly great West Coast sunshine music from New York singer songwriter Eric Hutchinson !

Eric Hutchinson - The Best Part

Is this really happening?
And are you really real?
But looking at the plus side
And we're wondering how to feel
I'm an imperfection
My only guarantee
Impossible to say
And what you'd really mean to me
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Everything was colder
Until you came along
A little heart been beating out a new familiar song
Started as an ideal
Started as a dream
Soon to be a major motion picture on the screen
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

And I believe, I believe, I believe in the stars
And I believe, I believe, I believe in the spark
Said I believe, I believe, I believe in beatin' hearts
Said I believe, I believe, I believe
That we're only getting started on the best part

First time that I saw you
In fuzzy black and white
A little heart of mine, I begin to see the light
So now we do the waiting
I guess you're waitin' too
I count down to the moment
When we're finally meeting you
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

And I believe, I believe, I believe in the stars
And I believe, I believe, I believe in the spark
And I believe, I believe, I believe in beatin' hearts
Said I believe, I believe, I believe
That we're only getting started on the best part

And I believe, I believe, I believe in the stars
And I believe, I believe, I believe in the spark
And I believe, I believe, I believe in beatin' hearts
Said I believe, I believe, I believe
That we're only getting started on the best part
