![]() Pocket Revolution (2005) [ larger cover art ] |
Where have i seen this before?
When will i feel it again?
Somebody opened a door
I'm afraid to walk in
Imagination will kill
If imagination stands still
I read it in open book
Read it in open book
Oh man, i read it in books of laughter
Oh man, i read it in books of pain
What are you talking to me
Cause i'm not really there
Like a spirit that's free
I'm as light as the air
Oh man, i'm as light as the air and floating
Oh man, i'm as light as the air and floating
Take me on
Where the fire winds blow
Of where a fallen leaf stays
For days
On your shoulder
Cause all i need
Is to find my own
And that summering drone
Illicit and golden
Oh lord where have i seen this before
Oh lord when will i feel it again
Read it in every move
Read it in every game
Read it in what you do
Read it in everything
Oh man, as light as the air and floating
Oh man, as light as the air and floating
Take me on
Where the fire winds blow
Cause when time stands still
I wait until
It's over
And all i need
Is to find my own
And the summering drone
Illicit and golden

Right down to the bit of sampling of something that sounded at least a little like Marshall Applewhite (Heaven's Gate) "Last chance" speech. (I wasn't paying close enough attention to verify it was or wasn't that.) I don't think that is a sample of Marshall Applewhite, but I believe the child's voice at the beginning is that of Nick Sagan, who recorded an audio message for NASA's Golden Voyager record. This doesn't sound especially like Porcupine Tree to me. Plenty of bands made laid-back, almost ambient tunes like this long before PT existed. |

| Ecocruiser (Orlando, Florida) | Posted: Jun 29, 2007 - 12:39 Boring, not up to RP's standard of excellent music. |
| Whirlpool (Somewhere in California) | Posted: Jun 29, 2007 - 12:38 Kind Of hypnotic. |
| Nabla (Cork (Ireland)) | Posted: May 29, 2007 - 05:26 I like it! Rated 8. |
| mgkiwi (French Alps) | Posted: Mar 27, 2007 - 04:51 Blimey - RP, it's working, I'm getting very tired. The last 5 songs must be for insomniacs - dangerous, they may never awaken again |
