It took me awhile to get my hands on Browne's 1972 debut album, finally achieving it this summer, but boy was it worth it to hear doctor, my eyes on vinyl quality. The piano in this song has such an upbeat feeling, I can't help but sing along every time. The lyrics are well versed, and their delivery is excellent and perfect when voiced by Jackson. Also, this song was covered by The Jackson 5......THE JACKSON 5?? Covering a debut hit?? You know it's gotta be awesome, right there. Fact.

Doctor, My Eyes
Doctor, my eyes have seen the years,
Through the slow parade of tears wtihout crying,
Now I want to understand,
I have done all that I could
To see evil and the good without hiding,
You must help me if you can
Doctor My Eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long?
As I've wandered through this world
As each moment has unfurled,
I've been waiting to awaken from this dream,
I never notice them until I got this feeling,
That its later that it seems,
Doctor My Eyes
Tell me what is real
I hear cries
Just saying "Its' too late for me",
Doctor My Eyes
Cannot be disguised
Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry?
