Seems like a bunch of talented kids trying to work out what direction they want to go. I especially love the first one, "Paradise Lost." Reminds me of very early Genesis/Moody Blues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a personal favourite for a few years. I don't know the year -- '79? The haircuts, Glenn Tilbrook's tired eyes, his shirt and gold-lamé tie, the hanging cake tins and women working in the background, and the lyrics -- Jesus. So depressing and perfect and real and strangely hopeful, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marka Ragnos Posted April 2 VT Supporter Share Posted April 2 (edited) I remember, as a teenager, parking the car late at night in the country with a few friends, closing the windows, filling the car with the smoke of several select herbal products, and listening to this album again and again in a state of abject and helpless awe. "I understand everything on earth now! I get it all!" Sound of a few beers being opened. "Pass that bong around again."

Not at all to pry, but it does deal with a painful subject, and of course, we only get the bloke's flippant point of view, and not the view of the mother or daughter.

Because I can’t stand the sound, basically. [I’m the same with Queen]. Also because it was played so many times on the radio when it was released. And it’s dreary and sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
