Rush! Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 I find Mellotron Scratch to be one of their best & most beautiful songs, & also I believe it's underrated. Especially on the Deadwing album. Anyone agree/disagree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its VERY underrated imo. 4:55 onwards...pure PT heaven Awesome, awesome song...I love that hard rock jam or as Steven once called it "that Townshend thing" and the vocal harmonies at the end of the song especially. Another song I think is underrated is Fadeaway from the Up The Downstair album which in turn is a REALLY underrated album. Love the lyrics, the arrangement of it, especially the slide guitar. It's probably my favorite song from that Space Rock era and is on my top 3 albums next to Lightbulb Sun and Stupid Dream. If any of you haven't listened to Up the Downstair yet, I highly recommend that you do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFireYYZ Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I was listening to In Absentia last night/today and I started thinking about the meaning of Trains. I know this has probably been discussed, but after reading the lyrics, I think I have an idea of what it is about. The narrator (who is probally young, 10-12) visits his cousin's family every summer, and he is in love with a girl (either a girl who lives nearby or possibly the cousin). She gets murdered, and is killed by the train (60 ton angel). Because he lives near trains, every time he hears one passing by he thinks of her and is "dying in love". Then, he realizes its OK and she moved on. This is one of the reasons why I like PT, the lyrics are up for interpertation. Anyone have any thoughts?

PolarizeMe Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) To the post about the meaning of Trains, that's a very interesting interpretation. I didn't even have a clue that Trains could possibly even be about something like that....to be honest, if Trains was really about that, it would've musically flowed with Lazarus very nicely... I've always wanted to think that Shesmovedon and Feel So Low were somehow about Steven's former ex-girlfriends but how do I know since he's never mentioned (and he shouldn't really) anything about his love life other than that the girl speaking during the intro of Tinto Brass was his Japanese girlfriend at the time and she basically spoke about whatever was written about the guy of the same name in a film book. (Source, DPRP/Dutch Progressive Rock Page during the Stupid Dream era) I also interpreted the lyrics of Fadeaway as the feeling one gets from either a LSD trip or near death experience based on the lyrics "I stumbled through the dark unaware/Where do the voices come from/I fell through a hole in the floor" Edited October 25, 2010 by PolarizeMe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Trains, I can't figure out what this is all about... When I hear the engine pass I'm kissing you wide The hissing subsides I'm in luck When the evening reaches here You're tying me up I'm dying of love It's OK I've said it in this thread before, but I would really like to discuss meanings of some of SW's lyrics.

PolarizeMe Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 (edited) QUOTE (ColdFireYYZ @ Oct 25 2010, 07:05 PM) Steven Wilson uploaded the Insurgents bonus tracks on Soundcloud for free. http://soundcloud.com/steven-wilson/tracks On Steven's Facebook, he's asking the fans on what other stuff he should upload onto Soundcloud. Unfortunately, songs that are currently in print or owned by Atlantic Records like Half-Light and Mother and Child Divided can't be uploaded. He hopes those songs will be released on a Recordings II once the rights expired and he owns them again. I requested that he should upload the very rare and out of print XMII and a very long out of print live EP called Spiral Circus, though I kinda feel bad for asking because there's just so many things he can do...I would be willing to pay for a high quality download for those on Burning Shed if possible. Edit: I just watched a Roadrunner Records interview with him and he explains that the RCMH show wasn't filmed because they felt too much pressure already given the fact they're playing at a prestigious venue and playing the longest show they've done ever.
