Jethro Tull - Sealion

[willicat441]

Didn't hear anybody else creating this kind of magic in1975.......

Only Tull

[10squonk]

Great, driving track, in my opinion, it pretty much blows Bungle in the Jungle out of the water, but each to his own :-) Anderson once again proves himself to be the master of vocal melody

[TheFrickinPope]

Easily the third best song on the album, behind Bungle in the Jungle and Skating Away.

"life, the world's your stage!"

wow....forgot how cool this song is..angry tull rules

[ChefGroovy2]

Is it me or does Warchild seem like Passion Play part 2?

[tjrxk7]

@ChefGroovy2 Very interesting ....never noticed that but yes,there is a bit of that. Don't forget Warchild had come out following A Passion Play,as a response to the poor review Passion Play had gotten. It kind of pissed Ian off somewhat.

Ah yes....."mating with chance, copulating with mirth"!

[tjrxk7]

@nnwahler the sad/glad paymasters for what it's worth!"

[rattan6969]

my youth,I remember so well

A bit of trivia here - it was when they were doing this song on the 1974 Warchild tour that Ian started the giant balloons thing that became a fixture of Tull encores forever afterwards. So now you know - if you didn't already :-)

[ThePipersNicks]

Great song, thanks!
