Thanks Shigeki! Very interesting comparison to the Lennon song. I had never thought of that, but now I see what you mean!

Thanks!

Thanks Guys!

As with any poetical endeavor, I have absolutely no idea what this song means from an allegorical perspective.

But I am glad you found it to be so, and may the light of magic illumination continue to ever shine within your own bright and sage-like minds.

Hmmm....King Crimson. Now I am caught.

Uh, yeah...I see what you mean. Can I get back to you on that?

With regard to other questions, if they come out with styles in this vein I will be doing nothing else with my time and my wife will kill me so maybe they are doing me a favor.

David ,

That was a tour de force, I was taken back to ‘Lord of the Rings’ that is a direction you would have no trouble in filling, writing for swashbuckling drama films another excellent showing.

Well, being Canadian I can tell you that I have listened to a LOT of Rush over the years. With CRTC Canadian content laws it is hard not to, they are played all the time.

Not my favorite band, but I highly respect them for their high caliber of musicianship and the writing which is top notch.

Very ambitious write, lyrics are something else! Vocal sounded good too.

David,

Even though I've never managed to get my head around music of this genre, I can appreciate the huge effort that's gone into getting this together. I'm incredibly impressed that you pulled it off with such pizzazz. The hook is incredibly clever and I really liked the reference to Coleridge's Kubla Kahn.... very inventive!

It seems that your creativity is boundless!

All the best,
Noel
