It's funny how a matter of moments can change one's concept of a piece of music... I never liked this song until I saw/heard it in concert... There was a screen behind the stage on which they projected different abstract pictures for the songs, and the first few notes in Sweet Surrender were perfectly synchronised with bolts of lightning. The awesome but simple imagery struck me (so to speak) with the raw honesty of this song. I love it now. And I'm glad of that.
