Total rip-off of the opening of "Another Brick Pt. 1" ... right down to the delay on the guitar. Geoff ought to be ashamed of himself, letting this song out. Besides the ARIA album blew this album to the weeds.
I love this song! This song has some much feel and emotion written into it, it blows me away! I can't believe how much I feel listening to this song. Thank you so much Asia your music has helped me through so much. <3
John Payne has to be the luckiest MF out there. Can you imagine a gig like this just dropping out of the sky into his arms? Certainly he's the winner from the Asia albums after Wetton. Soon all Asia fans will learn of him. After the re-united group gains more popularity, people will be curious about the previous albums and check them out. This invariably happens when groups achieve a level of success.
I've had "Aura" and "Silent Nation" for years but recently picked up "Arena". I really like it. A solid collection of songs from beginning to end. Next up is "Aria" and then "Aqua". Also looking forward to the new original Asia album "Omega"!
@Ted90125 Listen to the guitar intro. It's the same intro to Run Like Hell. Or maybe it's the Another Brick In The Wall (Part 1) intro. Anyway it's the exact same.
"There somewhere to find, theres some place hide deep inside of my mind. There is a torent wind, there is no place here, tell me if you get there, Heaven." How true this rings to me. Well done Payne and Downes.

The best song off Asia's second best album. "Astra" being #1, obviously.

@MordakeHead Aren't we talking about ARENA here???
horaciobotaya 1 year ago
@horaciobotaya Oh yes, we are. I meant that "Arena" is the band's second best album, and "Astra" is the very best.
MordakeHead 1 year ago
@MordakeHead
We're in the minority but for my money Astra is the best Asia album too!
I'm glad I'm not the only on who appreciates that gem.
