    Although listed as a separate song, "Sirius" is actually the intro to "Eye in The Sky". Not many reactors know that, so hats off!

    This is the biggest hit, and Alan Parsons must be getting mad royalties from the NBA, but the one I love is Don't Answer Me. The song is great, the video is amazing, and I need to break out a box of tissues every time.

    Thanks for the video & content! I was 20 years old in the USAF in Europe when I first heard this in the mid-late 1970's. Now that I'm 64, I still think it's ahead of it's time. My take on the lyrics is that the singer is "on to" his girlfriend concerning their relationship. And, the singer (Alan) is calling BS on her intentions/ulterior motives. I didn't get it 44 years ago. Nonetheless, the vocals and musicianship transended the message for me at that time. I was in a hard rock band at that time and hated disco... but then this!?! Wowzers! 😎👍🎸

  • @blackheisenberg2697
    @blackheisenberg2697 4 роки тому +4

    NBA 2K11 Michael Jordan Edition, this song was on the sound track. Started it all for me. 90s Bulls were a bit before my time so 2K11 helped build my appreciation for Jordan’s career by doing the runthrough. I found this gem on that game however and I’ve since listened to all 10 of APP’s studio albums as well as his 4 solos.
    Went to see Alan last year and had an incredible time as well. Thumbs up.

    A song/music that bridges the '80s and the present. If you were a fan of the Alan Parsons Project in the '80's, COOL!!! If you were a Chicago Bulls fan in the '90's and loved their player intros, COOL!!! If you just watched the NetFlix show "Last Dance" COOL!!! We have you all covered. One of the greatest piece of music EVER!!! I'm out!!!

    @stephaniethurmer5370 4 роки тому +3

    I see this song being meaningful on many levels as I do with the vast majority of Progressive Rock(an era I grew up in and currently mentoring someone on). This song can be seen as reflection on the break up of a bad relationship of which we have all been through, but on a bigger level, if you listen to the words, it can have a much bigger meaning and influence on spirituality and how we live, that someone/something of a higher power, depending on your personal beliefs, is always watching how we live our lives.

    Parsons was a producer (See Beatles Abby Road as example) and he would put together these great groups of singers, musicians and put out one great album after another for a while. He put out his final album last fall on the internet and I would encourage everyone to check it out. HIs goodbye video makes references to all of the albums he produced for other groups and his own. It is funny and revealing as he goes off into the sunset.

    I have neighbors who are even older than I am (89, and 78) I offered to make a grocery run, or to pick up meds for them if they needed me to. If you have older neighbors, show some love and offer to help them out if you can. This pandemic is a lot more serious for them (us?) A small gesture on your part could make a huge difference in their lives.

    The Impressions - Choice of colors
    Isley Brothers - Work to do
    Syl Johnson - Concrete reservation
    Freddie King - Going down
    Curtis Mayfield - Get down
    Curtis Mayfield - Other side of town
