Catch Bull at Four began with a statement of purpose, Sitting, in which Cat Stevens tried to talk himself into believing that he hadn't stalled, beginning to worry that he might be falling behind schedule or even going in circles.

And indeed, the songs all seem very pertinent to this path, very poignant and heart-opening. The fourth step is Catching The Bull, which illustrates a great struggle, the bull repeatedly will escape and discipline is required. CATCH BULL AT FOUR is chronologically Cat Stevens' 6th album, but it his 4th after his near-fatal bout with Tuberculosis during which he was hospitalized and recuperated for two years. He spent that time changing his attitude and also changing his music. Catch Bull at Four. Cat Stevens. Released 1972. Catch Bull at Four Tracklist. Sitting Lyrics
