I was about thirteen when this album came out. My older sister brought it and I was hooked. They always chose such interesting topics to sing about. This one is my favourite.

Very progressive (Prog) in the way it is arranged, with tempo and style changes, plus two brilliant guitar solos. Also perhaps influenced by very early Queen (Bohemian Rhapsody was released in 1975). Another great track is The Dean And I, from their self titled first album (1973), which n was similarly complex, but is more like a Broadway musical crammed into 3 minutes. Well worth a listen, even if you don’t react to it.

That is an interesting backstory on the origin of the song told by you Shawn. This is a very unique song in the way it is played and sung. I really like this song. I agree with what you said Trey on the angelic harmonies and the lyrical meaning, and I agree with what you said Shawn about the tempo changes and instrumentation. You are both right on in your comments. I agree that I'm Not In Love is the better song, but this is also a classic, in my opinion. You both gave this a high rating. I agree more with Trey's rating of an 8.0. I can tell you both liked this song. I think it is a really cool song. I enjoyed the video.

Anybody notice how the guitar solos are just the perfect length. Not bombastic guitar-god, just in and out, serving the song. Also, it is fun to look closely at the Hipnosis cover. It is the same people in each of the quarters, some reflecting the songs themselves. The inner gatefold is a crowded room of people all entangled in telephone cords, including the band members themselves. Relationships are complicated things, but don't hang up. For me, the most interesting song is 'Iceberg', but may not be exactly lyrically PC these days.
