John Lilly by Laurie Anderson. Animated by me

I dont really subscribe to the notion that all animals in captivity are unhappy. Some definitely are but most are not. What I like about this song is what I like about The Wall by Pink Floyd or The Truman Show. If theres a wall in our lifes we dont like. It shouldnt be there. Period.

Found the song on a save-the-world-sorta CD in a bin at the editor of a music mag. The music was put together from various artists and sources all over the world by Godley/Creme of 10 cc. This song cut above the rest. Laurie Andersson rules.

That gave me a weird feeling in my stomach. Almost like chills but it stopped within my stomach (possibly started there too but it happened fast)

Well done!

Thanks for the post. Two prolific artists venerated. Thought provoking- as is most of John Lilly's work. Yes, Laurie Anderson is truly a seer.

She is so haunting with her truth...

How do you know anything about how any animal feels in captivity?

We look within.

I love her beautiful soothing voice and the message as well.:)

we can go into a dark room with a candle and darkness turns to light. but we can not go into a light filled room with any amount of darkness to change the light.
