5 stars A GORGEOUS SONG AND A CHILLER!

Hi. First I would have to say that I agree with MATTI's review. But I would personally add that To One In Paradise is a favorite of mine. Just an out and out gorgeous song with hauntingly beautiful lyrics. One of the stand out lines, among many for me would be the lines, 'I've been through times when no one cared, I've seen clouds in empty skies, When one kind word meant more to me, Than all the love in Paradise.' As the sometimes coolness of religious dogma can't compete with the down-to-earth love contained within the human touch generated in it's most basic form of kind words. Without a doubt it is my favorite Alan Parsons Project song, but also my second favorite 'mellow' popular song ever. My favorite mellow tune is by someone who isn't represented on PA, the song is Gypsy Soul from Tommy Bolin's album Private Eyes. It is my favorite 'electric' album as well. For anyone interested, my personal favorite 'acoustic' albums are also not represented here on PA either, but all three are great albums worth looking into. The 'acoustic' albums are Al Stewart's Past, Present and Future followed closely by America's debut album.

Well, take care and enjoy God's gift of music.
