@jackkuro The whole album is actually - some of the most melodic, well-crafted and performed songs you'll ever hear. "Long Away" is another hidden gem of a song.

It's pretty clear that Freddie was born to be a legend.

Love 'Drama", love much of this song but I think it was a little long - there wasn't enough meat on the bones to make it as long as it is.

@TheProgNerd Well said sir. I'll only add that if the musical currents were running in a different direction in the late 70's early 80's this album would have received a completely different reception upon release.

Love me some Charles - he's the best :)

In my next life I want to come back as a bulldog with a great owner like chadhorn - you know when a dog can just sleep like that he trusts you and loves you completely.

After my beloved Misiu, Blue II is my favorite dog - he is SO CUTE :)

Somebody must have made a big mistake. A band this good getting a Grammy nomination? I'd throw it back in their face.

"Is there anyone you're looking forward to seeing perform tonight?" Er, um, Paul McCartney? Van Halen . . . but Coldplay? - I suppose they just want to see how a band so weak mu...

I think this song laid the blue print for the extended songs and concept albums that were to follow in the 70's.

Sorry, this commercial isn't nearly as creative, funny or charming as "the Force" is. Not bad, just not great.

Are you kidding me? Tell me that's not real. Oh yes, and now Mr. Lowe is spreading unfounded rumors about Peyton Manning retiring today. Football has gotten strange lately. I blame Hollywood.

@wow4lifefool That's another reason why it just might be the perfect pop song - it leaves you wanting more.

@ceitiosaurus Former Snow Queens - Kathleen Turner, Sigourney Weaver, Louise Arthur. The voice must be of a mature woman. The emotion in the voice must be stoic, but capable of a sort of manipulative kindness. I don't know, basically ;)

I would like to hear a little bit of Bjork's voice in this ...

@squonkynut I think most of the serious fans of Genesis, from both the Gabriel and Collins (pre-Face Value) eras, had high hopes for a dark, moody no-Phil Genesis. I certainly did, and the clips I had heard of CAS were quite intriguing - the album itself is quite good - some of the ballads weren'...

The shitpile that Peter's music became after "Security" was astonishing. I've never seen such great talent lose everything that made them unique and admirable so quickly, so unexpectedly. Well, other than the band he abandoned.

Absolutely perfect. George was undoubtedly laughing his arse off. After all, he is in you and me and everyone. If you understand, he is in you too.

Good grief - let everyone know that Prince can bring the goods. And Tom Petty - I never noticed how similar his voice is to Harrison's before. A stirring tribute to one of my heroes. R.I.P. George.

I love this. Almost made him a star. Really. Well, for one, if there ever was a man that didn't want to be a star despite his enormous musical gifts, it was Jeff Lynne. And the string of albums from the mid 70's - Eldorado, Face the Music, A New World Record, and Out of Blue - carried on the grea...

I'll just say this - the 4 man Crimson plays this song properly. The double trio does not. And the same is true for every song in the repertoire - look, it's like driving an exotic sportscar at high speed - you need the correct number of hands on the wheel - one isn't enough (you'll crash), two i...

@Caiosama205 Well said - I try to explain this to the musically inclined people I know and they just nod their head without any comprehension. They cannot, seemingly, get through the overriding complexity of it all. If it's not in 4/4 and built from standard heavy metal memes then it simply can't...

Maybe the perfect pop song. If they only wrote more songs of this quality . . . not that they are a bad band, but a song like this - well I'll just say some bands dream of writing songs this good.
