Hear's what I think of when I listen to this song. It seemed to me to be about a relationship that fell apart due to the woman's BS, and the man is comparing himself to God, knowing all about her because he had spent so much time witnessing her tricks and lies. But that's just me.
The song is in part a reference to George Orwell's classic novel 1984, regarding a possible future in which individual privacy is virtually non-existent due to the ever-watching eye of Big Brother. In the novel, citizens are constantly monitored by hidden video recording equipment
One looks at images such as these, hearing the song they are presented with, and the thought is set in stone: There is no way, NO WAY, that we are the only ones out there. It just wouldn't make sense to think otherwise.
WHERE IS THE LOVE BUTTON FOR THIS!!! I've never said that b4. I love this song!! Thanks dad for introducing it to me, and me to so many AMAZiNG classics! :)
A SIX... EIGHT FORWARD! FROM SOUTH EAST OOOOKLAHOMA STATE, DENNIS RODMAN!!! A SIX... EIGHT FORWARD!!! FROM CENTRAL ARKANSAS SCOOOOOOTIIIIIEEEE PIPEN!!! *others* AND FORM NORTH CAROLIIIINAA!!! GUARD SIX SIX..... MICHAEEELLLLLL JOORDAAANNNNN!
What the hell is SME and why does it restrict playback of this video in playlists? That's kind of gay... Then it says "Sorry about that." Not forgiven.
How could anyone, in their right mind, dislike this song? I'm a younger guy of 26, and I've only just recently started listening to The Alan Parsons Project, and more specifically this song, and in all honesty, this is one of the most amazing songs I've ever heard. I'm not even exaggerating here; I was an instant fan of this band after I heard these two songs on a Vinyl my friend and I bought at a flea market. In fact, this entire album is a masterpiece, in my opinion. Glad to have found them!
@Alacres I think that they don't like this song more for personal reasons, or issues than for the song in itself, for this music is like clockwork, is perfect
My dad used to put this c.d. and others for me to sleep, now whenever I hear it I start crying. Because it reminds me of a time where everything was right with the world. And I miss it.
I'm the public address announcer at Coppin State University in Baltimore, MD and we use Sirius as our starting lineup song. I don't claim to be Ray Clay, but the song does indeed work!
It should come as no surprise Parsons made such an awesome song as this (and others), as the man was Pink Floyd's sound engineer on Dark Side of the Moon. Clearly, PF knew Parsons was quite talented.
@Realmasterorder The song is called Sirius in the first minute and half, the remaining minutes is called Eye In The Sky. The Alan Parsons Project is the band name.
I would put this song on and It took me so far away from the life of being abuse I had as a little kid. It was my escape,it was my shelter. Know im 42 and a disabled Iraq vet. Ths song all the years later helps me escape when I dont want to be here. Thanks a million
@beijingirl this song has superb rhythm, lyrics, instrumentation and balance. this level of music requires alot of hard work, and it takes an applicable mind to understand/appreciate it. so, VERY false.
I'm 45. The first time I heard this group at 16 and did not know the author, and listened for about 2 years. Rarely heard pieces of the song. And now, after 29 years I know who plays, and listen again in a few hours. Maybe it's just memory, or the quality of music, but the tears flow like water
The legend will live forever... There are many things that I could learn from mj's life... Throughout his life he had to overcome many obstacles and difficulties...and even though his physical strenght may have dimished at times, he always had one thing going for him... his spirit of a competitor never gave up...This is why he acomplished what he accomplished...This is the truth of the human spirit... It will always be a mystery to me...
@liberalinthedesertaz The funny thing is when this was released in Australia in the 80's as a single the "intro" was always part of the song. This was a big hit in Australia back then.
" that is why we take the universe and man and transformed it into art, through the music of Alan Parsons Project." . . . . .Oh PERLEASE, it wernt that good mate, fantastic intro but then disolves into somesort of wishy washy fluff, a real anti-climax in the end.
@monkeybath1 Seriously Man,If you down someone else for thier Music,then you just don't get Music.Inever down on someone becuase of thier Music.Music,by it's very Nature,should be Uniting,and comments like yours are Anti Music IMO.Yea theres Music I hate,But i never tell someone that thier music sucks.
Wow. You brought yet more cleansing music for the world to hear. As a long-time APP listener (since April 1980) you did the Alan Parsons Project a great service. Between Alan Parsons, Pink Floyd and Genesis (yes, I like all three) we can help purge our society of all the Lady Gag-Gags, Snookis, Katy Perrys, Justin B's, and Christina Aguilera. Take back our world. Again, thank you so much for the video.
Listen to this, then listen to Lady Antibellum's "Need you now". I'm pretty sure A.P. got ripped off.
