Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Lucky Man (Official Lyric Video)

Emerson, Lake & Palmer ‘Lucky Man’ Celebrating ELPs 50th anniversary and the re-press of their super deluxe, career spanning CD/LP/book box set ‘Fanfare (1970-1997)’: New, beautifully animated lyric video of this seminal ELP track, released as a single in December 1970. The song is taken from the group’s globally successful, self-titled debut album which reached No.4 in the UK and in the US in 1970. Written by Greg Lake when he was 12 years old and recorded by the trio using improvised arrangements, ‘Lucky Man’ contains one of rock music’s earliest instances of a Moog synthesizer solo. Lyrics: He had white horses And ladies by the score All dressed in satin And waiting by the door Ooh, what a lucky man he was Ooh, what a lucky man he was White lace and feathers They made up his bed A gold covered mattress On which he was laid Ooh, what a lucky man he was Ooh, what a lucky man he was
