King Crimson "The Great Deceiver"

[NerfFPSRussia]

one dislike? what a cunt

[trilingual]

The one dislike is just someone craving attention . . . : )

[FinnMove]

Good and stragee music. I had this album about 1980´s.

[dorofeevag]

The Great Deceiver it is i am!

[AtotheNtotheYtotheA]

I got this album for Christmas, i listened to it today and this song, the opening track, completely blew my mind! I love this album just as much if not more than In The Court of the Crimson King ^^

[SenhorBundy]

Whoever disliked this doesn't know great music!

[hoxvoxbox]

@SenhorBundy just one dislike, probably a mormon looking for Bible footages.

[submarinom7]

The GREAT KC in the time they played them best music (nothing like that after that time, I guess...).

[ThePeterats]

Ma 1ère job d'été, c'était au stade olympique: Cigarettes ! Ice cream !

[MustangCoupe1951]

This was a great album by the best conclave of the Crimson King in my opinion.

[Playjex]

@MustangCoupe1951 I believe the Fripp, Wetton, Bruford, and Cross lineup was the band's best, but my personal favorite is either Red or Lark's. Not quite sure which yet.

[pwrsrge220]

@Playjex agree on lineup!! Perfect.

[progman1960]

Great Song !

Great Band !!

Great Era !

PROG ON !

[Zeropathetic]

I'm disinclined towards liking this because 100 to 0 is such a nice number.

Oh well, I 'liked' it anyway.

[grevejp44]

for the record the meant the food which is called faggot, not the homosexual term.

[EricDB007]

@grevejp44 i never knew that till now! and here I thought it was just a derogatory term for gays and cigarettes. what a versatile word!

[doghouse8632]

great tune. i haven`t heard this in 25 years!

[facecheek]

cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the Viiirgin, Maaary!

[Tamgeopose1988]

This is a great song, which kind of reminds me of a band I've heard a few days ago, Aperco. Hear the similarity at their channel apercoband

[theluigiteam543]

0 people don't li... wait, what?

[EquinoxOfTheGods]

This pales into bleak nothingness in comparison to Starless and Epitaph, imo.

[tomick4539]

すげーカッケー

[wistoncap]

The White Widow brought me here.

[Poisonnachos]

@wistoncap Whenever I look at that comment I think it says the Wide Window.

[Sylvain894]

The futur of Jazz fusion music as this intro. What a mix of influencals, appreciate shorter catchy songs ! To me they remain a very nervous tensed-intensive art rock band ! More Beatlesque stuff !

[danebridge]

mental man

[royercrafter]

fuck me it sounds so familiar to parabola from tool

[TheArabassist]

@royercrafter omg i can see the influence now

[jbassman666]

@royercrafter tool are huge king crimson fans

[IwanttoliveinParis]

"This night wounds time."

[lakemichigan100]

This makes heavey metal music sound so tame.

[dantean]

@lakemichigan100 Heavy metal music makes heavy metal music sound tame to all but a 12 year-old mentality.

[LipanConjuring8519]

@dantean What an ignorant comment.

[lakemichigan100]

make heavey metal music sound like pansy music

[CommanderDESU]

I love this song on a passionate level

[monkeygoodcipherbad1]

I still can't figure out how bill bruford plays that intro riff... he has 3 hands...

[synth77]

'bout time someone uploaded this.

[Faddo94]

cigarettes, ice cream, figurines of the virgin mary, blue jeans, cadilace

King Crimson know what is fun! XD

[coreyagraph]

@Faddo94 it was an observation about the commercialization of the vatican................2.14 is a WICKED RIFF

[Faddo94]

@coreyagraph that's curios, but It wasn't my comment it wasn't an offensive, it was ironic XD

Yes it is, but the intro....oh god...the intro is my life theme, it's amazing.

[monkeygoodcipherbad1]

@coreyagraph ...the meaning is a bit deeper than that... and the whole song is a bunch of wicked riffs lol...

[tslick75]

one of the greatest rock songs of all time!

[coreyagraph]

@tslick75 time signature......? which one?

[Crimzoid21]

Cigarretes ice cream!

[crisponsglove]

health food faggot

[monkeygoodcipherbad1]

@crisponsglove ... interestingly enough, he's talking about a vegetarian meatball LOL  ...

[monkeygoodcipherbad1]

@crisponsglove ... take "meatball" to mean whatever you think it means hahahaha from the rest of the lyrics it sounds like he hates guidos

[ryder187mac]

@crisponsglove Every time I hear that line, it makes me cringe a bit. How when the song was written, the word "fagot" was a type of food, though now everyone hears "faggot".

Who, know, maybe it was intentional.

[newfuckingwave]

@ryder187mac well the lyrics appear to concern a person characterized as a 'healthfood faggot', whatever that is exactly. fag also used to mean cigarette so possibly the character of mention smokes light cigarettes or whathaveyou. at any rate it's absurdly funny

[ryder187mac]

@newfuckingwave Nah, if you read up on the lyrics, the word "faggot" was intended to mean a type of food (some meatball or something), and the writer only realised the gay reference later on

[newfuckingwave]

@ryder187mac well that's even funnier

[dwc311]

@crisponsglove lmao
