In and around the lake Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there One mile over we'll be there and we'll see you Ten true summers we'll be there and laughing too Twenty four before my love you'll see I'll be there with you.

Here's another that pops into my head at random times....

For some reason, it's this: I am the one who guided you this far, All you know and all you feel. Nobody must know my name For nobody would understand, And you kill what you fear. I call you for I must leave, You're on your own until the end. There was a choice but now it's gone, I said you wouldn't understand, Take what's yours and be damned. ------------- -John |

By Ayreon (Devin Townshend in this case), Day Sixteen: Loser - [Father] Look at you, lying there, defenceless and alone See I am no fool, I always knew you wouldn't make it on your own 'cause you're just like your mother, well, where is she now? You'll end up like her soon, 6 feet under ground, loser! I came here to watch you bleed, oh how I love to gloat If you had any balls at all, you'd grab me by the throat You don't even look like me, ha! Not even close! You're an aberration, some freak...I suppose, loser! I had my fun, I'm going back to the place I don't call home There's no one there who waits for me, but you won't hear me moan My ex-wives all sue me, and with half my kids in jail I'll still come out laughing, coz me?

Yep. I feel the same way. I suspect a lot of people on here(if not most)like other stuff besides just prog. As a big fan of 90's alternative this was sad for me too.

Friede and I made a special edition of "Nursery Cryme" which includes the tracks "Happy the Man" and "Twilight Alehouse". both songs were recorded during the "Nursery Cryme" sessions, but for some reason not included on the album. "Happy the Man" appeared as a single shortly after "Nursery Cryme" came out, but "Twilight Alehouse" much later as b-side of "I Know What I Like" ------------- A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

'Like a fool in a pool I'm wonderfully cool....like a Nun with a gun i'm wonderful fun... with a grin on my chin i'm certain to win' .... My 2 all time favorite Genesis songs!!I think the version of Twilight Alehouse on the B side of IKWIL was actually recorded during 1972 but it was first written and performed by the band as early as 1969 (the guitar riff actually appears as a 'joining' section between two songs on 'From Genesis to Revelation') and there is a brain melting BBC session version from 1972 and the lovely Belgium TV (Rock of the 70's) version from around early 1971  ------------- |

"Twilight Alehouse" was allegedly recorded during the "Foxtrot" sessions, but I think this is impossible because of what I call the "aural fingerprint". I will explain what I mean by that. each album has its own specific sound due to the circumstances during the recording sessions. this is especially so for analogue recordings, but to a certain degree even for digital ones, although less pronounced. each studio has its own acoustic parameters, and even the same studio may have different acoustic parameters at different times. this is well-known by any sound technician. I know for certain that TV sound engineers used to record 3 minutes of silence for shootings to get the sound atmosphere. I don't know if this is still so, but it definitely was in the 70s. now the "aural fingerprint" of "Twilight Alehouse" happens to match the "aural fingerprint" of "Nursery Cryme" and not of "Foxtrot". hence it was definitely recorded during these sessions ------------- A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

I'm aware of the concept (Room tone) you refer to.. everything ive read (and yes you shouldn't believe everything you read) over many many years leads me to strongly believe that Twilight Alehouse was not 'officially' recorded until 72. Chances are it wasn't at the Island (Basing street) studios where the majority of Foxtrot was recorded as i'm sure some overdubs were done elsewhere. There is a huge difference between the sound production of David Hitchcock/ John Burns and John Anthony/David Henshel and between Trident and Basing Street in terms of dynamics.. have you actually analysed the analogue recordings of these personally or just 'by ear'? i'd be very interested to hear it/ see any evidence, just being a long, long time fan of the band and of the Charisma label 69-75. Anyway, all that aside aside, I was just respecting, acknowledging and returning your comment on my comment in a jolly manner ------------- |

I love Paddy McAloon 's words. "The Old Magician" The old magician takes the stage His act has not improved with age Observe the shabby hat and gloves The tired act that no one loves There was a time he produced doves A mirror and a puff of smoke His mysteries are now a joke His poor assistant black and blue She's tired of being sawn in two She's tired of being sawn in two Hidden trapdoor, velvet cape Still from death there's no escape Words of sympathy and tact Only underline the fact Death is a lousy disappearing act |

In wet and windy priest-holes. Grand in vast cathedrals. High on lofty minarets or in the temples of doom. I hope the old man's got his face on. He'd better be some quick change artist. Suffer little children to make their minds up soon. Bad mouth on a prayer day, hope no one's listening. Roots down in the wet clay, branches glistening. Roots to branches Roots to branches ------------- This message was brought to you by a proud supporter of the Deep State. |

Tip-toes in silence `round my bed and quiets the raindrops overhead. With her everlasting smile She still my fever for a while. Oh, nursie dear, I'm glad you're here to brush away my pain. ------------- |

You know We’re dealing with A very critical and crucial time.... The most crucial and critical time that I've ever witnessed Being as young as I am... You know... We all don't want to say nothing else, so we say “as young as we are.” Now I want to talk about the pronunciation and the realization Now the educators they call it E.S.P., Positive thinking, right? Some of the people across the other side of the pond call it Vibe Vibrations Astrology and all those different things you understand But I call it?...... what it is, is what it is What it is, is what it is ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst Out at you from their hiding place Like acid and oil on a madman's face His reason tends to fly away Like lesser birds on the four winds Like silver scrapes in May Now the sands become a crust And most of you have gone away |

Teach your children well Their father's hell Did slowly go by And feed them on your dreams The one they picks The one you'll know by Don't you ever ask them why If they told you, you would cry So just look at them and sigh And know they love you ------------- when i was a kid a doller was worth ten dollers - now a doller couldnt even buy you fifty cents |
