Observatory Crest / Captain Beefheart

Observatory Crest / Captain Beefheart

While the city was busy we wanted to rest
She decided to drive up to observatory crest
We'd just saw a concert and heard all the best
We went on a ride, we got outside
The sand was hot, she wanted to dance

We went round and round in observatory crest
Thought we'd saw flying saucers and all of the rest
from observatory crest

While the city was busy we wanted to rest
She decided to drive up to observatory crest
We'd just saw a concert and heard all the best
So the only thing to do
Was to drive up
And watch the city
From observatory crest

A lot of deejays sample this record from 0:05 to 0:24 .

"Men let your wallets flop out

And women open your purses"

Deep woe for the passing of this man.

Deep joy for him ever existing.

Don does not sound like anybody! But he influenced more people than even know it! In the world of fuckin Jedward and Polly Murrs or Oswald Mars or whoever last won some pointless talent show, the Captain stands on a mountain top.

Interesting production for Don. He really had an great voice.

[sarahacres]

Just love this album

Journey  sucks shit. Except for the drummer when he does not play journey !

To the ignorant person who compared this song to Journey it would be good for you to expand your musical taste and not only listen radio but look for music with substance, deepness not only nice melodies, this song is art. You can compare but only if you don´t know anything else but....crap music- with no offense to Journey they are a great band- but Captain is way beyond. So stop listen your big sister records and look deep..."i think it sounds like Journey"........fool.

A Bluejeans & Moonbeams amazing song!

I love that tin sounding echoing at 1.12 it's like those little music boxes, the ones were you wind the handle

@workatthefarm I disagree. I think it sounds just like Journey. Apart from the notes. And the chords. And the words. And the singing. And the music. Other than that it sounds just like Journey - don't you think?

@ImprintsMedia Ummm Observatory Crest kind of Look-Out Mountain in Chattanooga, Tennesse.;-) THIS is a most magnificent song. The melody goes right with the 'as you say'; Poetic-lyrics. My heart sings as I recall some memories that 'this tune ignited'. POWERFUL messages in the Captain's gifts to humanity. What a BEing. So happy that these gifts are here for sharing; I thank the Special BEing that sent this my way today. He had shared Beefheart before BUT this GEM I cherish more. Namaste' <3
