Trinidad - Eddie Money (1980) FLAC Remaster/HD Video R.I.P. Eddie

"Trinidad" was the opening track on Eddie Money's third studio album, Playing For Keeps, which was released in the summer of 1980. Great to get a video finished for an Eddie Money track. Bought every one of his records back in the day, and while Playing For Keeps wasn't one of my favorite albums, "Trinidad" did rank with my favorite Eddie Money tracks. It's a great track....hope you enjoy it as much as I do?!

As usual HUGE THANKS to everyone who's art contributed to this new art...THANK YOU!!!!

[Lyrics]
There once was a story
From a thousand yesterdays
I read it in this ancient book
When the old man passed away
I drifted through the pages
And it's magic filled my eyes
I dreamed she once loved me
In the land called Trinidad

I ride the wind
Sail the water
She calls my name
To come on back to her in
Trinidad
Trinidad

The silence on the ocean
Like the silence in my heart
She still sings to me softly
Through the night
And in the dark

I ride the wind
Sail the water
She calls my name
To come on back to her in
Trinidad
Take me back (3X)
Trinidad

She waits by her window
And she shines a light for me
To help me through the harbor
In the land called Trinidad

I ride the wind
Sail the water
She calls my name
To come on back to her in
Trinidad
Trinidad (Trinidad)
Take me back (3X)
(Take me back)
Trinidad (Trinidad)
Come on home to hold me
(Come on home)
Trinidad
Hey hey hey
(Trinidad, Take me back)
(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
(Trinidad, Take me back)
(Oh oh oh, oh oh oh)

I was 14 in 1980 and I listened to this song (and Gimme Some Water) ALL Summer along with Evolution. Surprise, surprise... That Fall Journey came to Nashville with Eddie Money and Thin Lizzy!!! My first concert was being witness to Steve Perry, Eddie Money and Phil Lynot!!!

Have to agree, this is one of my favorite Eddie Money tunes by far, hands down. Love it when it first came out, still do today.

My dad was in Trinidad when he was in the Navy. Beautiful island.

[pannalover]

Saw him in concert the year this album came out. This is my favorite song. Rest in peace, Eddie. Thanks for the memories.

[jepnest]

I am from Trinidad never heard this song until today.. how did I miss this song ..those were the days I listened to top 40 / top 100 / bought albums..and missed this song..nah..somethings wrong..

[tonyr]

The solo at the end of this song is haunting. Made more so because it is still going as the volume fades. I love playing this song on my guitars. I miss you Eddie. Who played the solo on this recording? Anyone know? Please comment below.
