Sound Chaser (11/20)

I'm not sure why this song popped in my head today. It's not even a song I barely remember, but I couldn't get it out of my head even though I didn't know the lyrics. 

Oh well, enjoy:

Emerson, Lake & Palmer/Tiger in a Spotlight

Nights When I Can't Sleep

Sound Chaser

Pipe Dreams by Animusic

 

Music Monday (Yes/Relayer, Side 2)

After covering the first side of Relayer last week (one whole song), I'm back to go over side 2, which only includes two songs in itself.

1) Sound Chaser. The first song up is one whose tittle I have used for various things on this blog from time to time. I read one article about this song that when the journalist first heard it, he thought Yes had lost their minds and gone crazy. It is a wild ride.

Faster moment spent spread tales of change within the sound,

Counting form through rhythm electric freedom

Moves to counterbalance stars expound our conscience

All to know and see the look in your eyes.

Passing time will reach as nature relays to set the scene,

New encounters spark a true fruition,

Guiding lines we touch them, our bodies balance out the waves

As we accelerate our days to the look in your eyes.

From the moment I reached out to hold, I felt a sound,

And what touches our soul slowly moves as touch rebounds.

And to know that tempo will continue

Lost in trance of dances as rhythm takes another turn,

As is my want, I only reach to look in your eyes.

2) To Be Over. After all of the wildness of The Gates of Delirium, and especially Sound Chaser, this song completes the album in a much more relaxed and mellow way. It's almost like it is an escape from the frenetic pace that came before.

We go sailing down the calming streams

Drifting endlessly by the bridge

To be over

We will see

To be over

Do not suffer through the game of chance that plays

Always doors to lock away your dreams

Think it over

Time will heal your fear

Think it over

Balance the thoughts that release within you

Childlike soul dreamer one journey

One to seek and see in ev'ry light do open

True pathways away

Carrying closer go gently

Holding doors will open everyway

You wander true pathways away

After all your soul will still surrender

After all don't doubt your part

Be ready to be loved

This is a song that was recorded around the time of Fragile and/or Close to the Edge. I've already covered Fragile, here Side 1 and here Side 2. America shows up as bonus tracks in different versions on both of the re-mastered albums. It was another one of those songs taken by the band and "Yesified". The original is by Simon and Garfunkel and lasts 3:38. The Yes version is slightly longer at 10:32!

From the movie Electric Dreams. I used to be so, so in love with Virginia Madsen. And she plays the cello too? Sigh...
