I had a similar situation occur with some neighbors I had back around 2003. We used to grill out quite a bit that summer and we usually had Signify playing. After a couple of weeks the next doors asked what the album that we kept playing was. We explained that it was a fairly obscure British band called Porcupine Tree, and we burned them a copy of Signify. After that we would hear it playing every now and then from their house.
I hope they kept up with them. They seemed pretty cool.
Of course, I have been listening to PT since 96.
The soundtrack of my life...
Wow, Deadwing, you got on the PT train really early! Sorry, I couldn't resist. |

Good late night driving down the highway at 90mph music. You, the dashboard lights and a little PT. Just watch out for the fog banks and the 52 car pileup.

So the PT lads are honest to goodness working class? |

My wife said it best (while under the influence of a chemical substance)... There are people that love types of music and people that just love music.

And the sound quality here on RP is phenomenal! I find it very close to CD and much better than most other internet stations. I too love to sit and listen to RP through a good DAC,quality Integrated and some nice speakers (with upgraded interconnects and power cables, of course). It blows me away sometimes...just like you said, John. Especially (but not limited to) SW and PT's production quality. Whatever you're doing for sound quality Bill, keep doing it. It is much appreciated by these ears. |

I love this song but I'd never paid attention to the lyrics. Awesome. |

When someone ask you why you listen to RP, you can come up with several reasons.
I just tell them to listen.
They might hear this song and understand.

Since you're new to Radio Paradise, let me tell you how this is supposed to work. You comment on songs relevant to the song being played. Bill played Neil Young before this, go to that post, and leave your comment there.
Okay?
I don't know... asking for LESS Neil (PLEASE STOP SINGING FOR THE LOVE OF GOD) Young... and MORE PT makes sense to me...  |

Nice piccy, not sure of the relevance, I had strange epiphany recently (while watching a doco on tribal art) that all this Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Arts and Crafts stuff bears more than just a passing resemblance to Islamic Art.

Not in this song that is about the blissful happiness of secure childhood but others on this CD and the FoABP CD. What I don't quite understand is why do these middle-class Brits smoke tobacco? That is as bad as crack-cocaine or crystal meth. It just takes longer. |
