Access denied - Porcupine Tree

From the album Recordings, 2001

Access denied
All of the smarter kids they stay inside
But out in the pouring rain
You're kicking me with that look of sheer disdain

The fat controller man
He doesn't understand he's my biggest fan
So I'll stay here on the floor
It's better to be ignored than to be adored

Church spires ticking
Hose pipes hissing

Don't want to smother you
Just want you to be the mother of my children (now)
And you do

Good morning lucky man
I hope you enjoyed your sojourn in Japan
It's such a perfect scene
Back here in Golders Green - cut...end of dream

@westpalmscott No, Radioheah is influenced by them. Come on now....

[eructos1]

brilliant!

[omgpris]

Reminds me slightly of Offspring - when you're in prison, just the vocals of this song. This song is much better though.

[TheBadgerslayer]

@gogolplex74 they're probably cross influenced like all the bands in the modern progressive rock/ prog metal genres.

[PennyDreadful1]

Incredibly quirky.

@3leftstotheright Order it from Burning Shed. Royal Mail is really fast and you use pay-pal to pay for it. It costs about 10 GBP for the CD.

[gogolplex74]

lol actually Wilson cites Radiohead as one of his influences

[gogolplex74]

LOL Porcupine Tree doing pop

[PenguinoRose]

Anyone know the piano to this song?

I'm a huge PT fan as well as a huge Radiohead fan, I wouldn't compare two bands as great as those for "betterness" - just listen and enjoy what they produce for the masses :)
