    I was 5 or 6 when I first heard this song. It instantly caught my attention. Thinking to myself "what on earth is this, I like this". I also remember liking stuff from the Moody Blues, YES, and ELO. I liked anything that pushed to the edge of the scene. The 70's was a weird time when the edgy stuff would get airtime. Later in life I have come to learn that I like progressive music. Strange time signatures and non conventional arrangements. These days that stuff doesn't get played because it is no formulaic. Which is why I believe modern music has gotten stale.
