Brave Saint Saturn - Space Robot Five

[sparta981]

I always liked how this song flows. It's not only a song, but a beautiful example of poetry.

The only part I never understood was "Three fold the tie that binds" What does this refer to? I've always suspected hit had something to do with 3 stage rockets or the Holy Trinity, but for the life of me, I don't know what.

You ever wonder if the lyrics are describing a person? Think about it for a minute, dig deeper.......

"I have a message from another time..."

Hey wait... isn't the beginning of this from an Electric Light Orchestra song? ('Prologue' from their Time album)

[sorenkierkegaard2008]

@nyxetera Seriously?! I'm gonna have to look into that. I bet you're right, because Reese Roeper (according to what he says on Quantity is Job One) loves them. I always wondered what the deal was with the intro.

@sorenkierkegaard2008

Yeah, it totally is! /watch?v=3U52sP25ynE

[Trance182]

@sorenkierkegaard2008 Yeah considering they have done a few ELO covers i would guess you are wright :)

[snooflecake]

@nyxetera yes, the whole intro is completely from that prologue on time (lyrically)

Heard this on a Christan Cd a while back... like a long while, and i lost it, im sooo glad if found this song... its simply amazing!

I loved this song and just rediscovered it, but I'm trying to figure out... What are the words in the intro to this song? I think I have: Robot: [Can't make out] the waking mind, there lies another time where darkness and light are one. And as we draw the lines of [can't make out, might be "sanity"] we feel so glad to be [can't make out] I have a message from another time. Astronaut/Mission Control: God speed. [Line I can't make out] -- Countdown to launch Anyone know?

I cant be the only who wells up when they hear this song

Favorite song of my Favorite band :) Thanks for posting. Hope another album comes out in the future which I heard a rumor that might happen.

[frankly9000]

@Foouhomeyg Check out the new one. It's awesome :))

[Foouhomeyg]

@frankly9000 Oh I have lol I bought Anti-Meridian the month it came out. I mean I read about Roper saying to someone in an interview about making another album if Anti-Meridian did good. If not, possibly in a couple years he will make another anyway. So I guess just a rumor?

[flutedootrocker]

First time I heard it, I was thinking "OMG this song is so wierd" but by the end I was singing along and kept singing it throughout the week! lol really good song!

[esticazzi1]

[budrorc]

[sorenkierkegaard2008]
