   Boy, am I glad that's over.  Vividly awful lyrics.  Setting those words to video does not make for a good album sales pitch.  It makes the most pretentious ELP lyric look good.

This is a classic example of why progressive music doesn’t have a larger audience.  This genre, which I generally love , has some of the

worst lyrics in the history of music.  Some of this music would be best left as an instrumental IMHO.
