The song that marked Deep Purple's first album in eight years, and the "Classic" lineup's first in 11. Surprisingly relaxed and sensible for Deep Purple, it's about coming back to those you knew in the past, who became strangers but are now well known to you again- very much like what happened to the band coming together again (Jon Lord and Ian Paice having left a then-disbanded Whitesnake, Roger Glover and Richie Blackmore ending Rainbow and Ian Gillan being fired from Black Sabbath and reforming as a result of these events ) Some of Deep Purple's best lyrics, and Ian Gillan excels in their delivery.
I got the feeling this song is far from getting well known again or getting back together. It is acknowledging you are not only not going to part with someone, but never actually encounter them.
