Why do people HAVE TO romanticize everything done by pro musicians? Whether he was joking or not, I'm not sure but thats neither here nor there, he was saying, thats what happens when you're not concentrating. Simple. Nothing deeper than that, nothing to do with 'feeling' or anything like that. As has already been pointed out, he's human. Musicians have lives going on outside of performing too...

Beautiful rendition of the song inspired by my dream and conversations with Paul in 1974. I am the "somebody"...Upon waking I shared my vivid dream with the two principals of an old love story. Paul later wrote songs with Rowland Salley and captured my vivid dream and lamentations of lost love with him. The first verse and chorus are verbatim from my dream, the remainder of the song is based on dialogue with Paul. Thank you Martin, you give more grace and charm to the song.

@HannuMarijarvi Its meant to be taken as a joke.....OR "Don't think while performing, it gets in the way of feeling" type of thing.

Great music but "Don't think" is just bad advice.
