Pink Floyd - Let There Be More Light (Saucerful Of Secrets)
Pink Floyd - Let There Be More Light (Saucerful Of Secrets)
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

(to tower): 129.4. It's to go.
(tower): You may commence your takeoff, winds over 10 knots.

Easy on the brakes. Take it easy. Its gonna roll this time.
Just hand the power gradually, and it...
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, A state of bliss
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

I agree that 'Obscured...' probably their best album, and that's saying something - even being in the same league as 'Dark Side' and the rest mentioned here is something special. Why aint there bands like these around anymore?

Why don't bands make music like this anymore? Simple -- no LSD. Tripping was the most profound, beautiful and meaningful experience of my life. I treasure those experiences, and thank my lucky stars that I was born at the tail end of that era. The music of the era reflects the LSD experience. It humanized us all.
