This song rules! One of the best songs from the late seventies period. The ending is nuts with the crazy flute.

Really good job! Your cover version works even without the keyboard/guitar solo part. I also love how you replicated the truncated ending of the original.

@themansou1 Dude, good call... Funny you mentioned that, the first couple times I heard Flaming Telepaths I felt like I knew the chorus from a TV commercial or something like that... it was probably making me think of the chorus of As which may have featured in some fast food commercial or someth...

This is one of the very best Soundgarden songs. The way the "wanna make you right" part repeats and builds from 3:40 to 4:25 is one of the most intense sections of music I've ever heard. Soundgarden were/are something else.

I forget why I decided to look up this song one night, but I was instantly hooked. I couldnt remember the last time a single song captivated me like this one. For months I played this over and over. Eventually I listened to the rest of Secret Treaties... what an incredible record. Now after about...

@fligemon Agreed. Every song on this album is ridiculously good. Second side especially. Definitely one of the greatest albums of the decade.

Faith No More totally ripped off this song when they did "Epic".

@luke22596 Black Keys -- Howlin' For You

@gothomus0 I don't think that's Barre either, actually. Maybe he didn't play with the orchestral JT shows.

I once dated someone who I tried to turn on to Tull and who said that this song is about drugs, the "hello breakfast, may I buy you again" lyrics referring to cocaine or whatever. I dumped her un-Tull-worthy ass on the spot.

I love the melancholy feel of the first half of this track. Captures a certain mood like no other song I've heard. I still can't decide which half I prefer, I usually leave it at saying they complement each other perfectly. First half is somber, second half is an injection of humor to lighten thi...

This is one of two epic tracks on the shamefully underrated/overlooked Stormwatch album. This one is one of their most powerful songs, and it holds your attention for the full nine minutes. Barlow totally owns this track, probably his best drum work ever with the band. Bunker was a more powerful ...

@slinkie59 It's too long for me to post, do a Google search for ""for christ's sake he better start looking" and you'll find it

@tcoudi About 10 minutes should do it :)

Love the little "Rhapsody in Blue" nod from 4:14-4:24.

@GTX1123 Whenever *I* hear this song, I think of Dirk Diggler running away from the drug deal gone bad in Boogie Nights.

To me this is one of the greatest hard rock tracks of all time. The solo at 1:35 is off the charts. Outstanding drumming, and I love how the cymbals are very prominent during the last chorus. Perfect, tight song.

This is the song off Secret Treaties that took me the longest to get into, but now I can't get enough of it. It does seem to owe a lot to the Doors' "Roadhouse Blues" though. Sounds like a very blues-oriented song at any rate. Last minute or so is great too, if ridiculous.

"I'll face it with a grin, I'm never giving in, on with the show" -- Freddie was the MAN until the day he died.

Gilmour's vocals and music during the verses seem to be somewhat of an inspiration for Learning To Fly. At least I kinda hear that.

@lrmurph420 I think you're referring to Great Gig in the Sky off Dark Side of the Moon.

1:07 that must have been one hell of a dump that she took.

3:41-4:01 = eargasm

@edibletalkingchairs Prophet's Song, it was written by Brian May, but awesome Queen reference nonetheless

FWD sucks, can't do this crap on modern caddys

like that chick would be driving a boat like that

Good lord, is that really a Tempo catching some air at 0:13??? POS car

one of the better songs on the album for sure, but I always hated the stupid reprise of Band on the Run at the very end. Ruins the "finality" of this track.

@viney266 it's definitely rollbar

"...Guitar.... "

Everything that was great about the early (69-71) Tull period is right here... killer flute, hard drums, Martin's scorching guitar, and that "hard" sound that they lost after Aqualung but briefly regained for their masterpiece (in my opinion), Minstrel in 1975. Superb song.

best sound quality of any of the Cry You A Song posts on YouTube! cheerio!!!! the song kicks much ass!!!

tracked this CD down for my dad on 6/24/99 (he wrote the date in permanent marker on the case). he had a set of vintage 1970's Electro Voice loudspeakers, I remember him blasting the hell out of this song when he got home from work that day. he passed last year. miss you dad, thanks for turning m...
