Jonathan Edwards - Sunshine, 1971 BEHIND THE SONG: While Edwards likes to leave the songs meaning up for interpretation, he opened up about the setting in which it was written. He was living in some sort of songwriter co-op in Boston when he came up with the song. Each occupant had his own room surrounding a kitchen where they would write, perform, and critique each other's work... When he played this song at the table, Edwards didn't have a chorus written, so he made one up on the spot. #Jonath
