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.
