I really enjoyed this Divided Sky for some reason, it just jumped out at me

Everyone screams during the pause b/c no one knows what to do and then they feel uncomfortable so they start screaming like hysterical crazy people. What if everyone did the opposite and became really quiet? I think that would’ve been a louder statement.

Junta

The D-Sky from this seems to have a perfect strangers tease

the part where the theme song’s melody goes with these lyrics

“Rise and fall
On the wings of my dream
Rain and thunder, the wind and haze
I’m bound for better days
It’s my life
It’s my dream
Nothin’s gonna stop me now”

somebody else check this out and let me know what ya think, i suppose the era is about right considering the show started in 86 and ended in 93

anybody feel like giving the junta d sky a run through to see if they to hear this
anybody care to give it an examination

#49

This has probably been posted somewhere else on here. But maybe not.

In any event, pretty wild. I don’t think I could do this. There’s some crazy ass shit around the 3:00-4:00 minute mark.

I was listening to this show today! I couldn’t help but think about all the pauses over the years and wonder what everyone’s thoughts were on them. Heard opinions from both ends of the spectrum. On the one hand, the energy during the pauses reached so high at times that I just wanted to jump out of my fucking skin. On the other hand, at times, it seemed like another excuse for Trey to stroke his fucking ego. “I’m just gonna stand there and watch you clap for me until I feel like finishing the song. Okay, that’s long enough” :: hit’s THE note::
Anybody have an opinion either way?

Until last night I never realized how Genesis inspired this song is…and I’ve heard Watcher of the Skies a million times before.
