Hay que ver. Lloro. Lo que era un tema musical de 5 integrantes de un Grupo, resulta que está interpretado por grandes músicos de salón y una orquesta sinfónica para que suene el mismo tema, igual. En esto nos hemos quedado. Triste, muy triste.
How is this song still so good? So poignant? Even with a fully bloody orchestra. This rendition ought to be awful, anachronistic, grandiosely sentimental. But it's not. It's haunting, incandescent, stunningly fresh. I just had the same rush of emotions I had when I first heard it, as a teenager in Barnsley, England. I bet I was even wearing my signal yellow Oxford Bags. I know I was crying...
I grew up in WsM, moved away 35 years ago, but this will be the 4th year we’ve returned with motorhome and stayed at Uphill Marina. My career started in aerial photography and I played with boats. This is great dreamy nostalgia for me, I like the subject, nicely shot and the mood music completes it.
Qué tremenda versión!!!... vengo escuchando este tema desde su aparición en "Selling England ..." y creía que no se podía sacar mas nada de él. Hackett lo hizo de nuevo. Impresionante.
listening to this again... brought me back to a memory from middle school... in 1981 I am now 57 years old... thank you for opening up very beautiful memories... now I remember it again....❤❤❤
My favorite rock song of all time, and this may just be my favorite recording of it. The solo at the end is so transcendently beautiful. Steve Hackett : electric guitar :: Michelangelo : marble.
This tempo is utterly perfect. It allows the magnificent music to breathe properly and the result is a truly definitive rendition of one of the very finest compositions in rock history.
Just imagine being in that audience... I actuallly saw Steve Hackett and his band yesterday evening (6-6-2024). They played the second half of this song and made the floor tremble.
