lyrics

Speak to me from the stormy sky, the wind will fly then die
It's not kind to be so still, speak to me from on the hill

Oh, if it was possible after grief and pain
To find the arms of my true love around me once again

In the day of no creation nothing living here...
A lonely star born from afar bringing new life near

Then if it was possible for one short hour to see
The ones we loved that they might tell us what and where they be

Bring the solar wind, together, will form and live this life forever
The universe creates no answer, to live within this dark together

Oh, if it was possible after grief and pain
To find the arms of my true love around me once again

We’re best at once to sink at peace, like birds the climbing serpent draws
To drop head foremost in the jaws, of empty darkness left to keep

Then if it was possible for one short hour to see
The ones we loved that they might tell us what and where they be

In the morning light
The sun will dry your tears
Fade to black
Returning life to here
Speak to me from the stormy sky
The wind will fly then die

The days of light, move the river, the seven boats of our creation
Moving on a billion years, reveals our destination
Patterns turn, move and burn, determine the final battle cry
Towards the burning sky...

Fantasy progressive rock is not something I'd ever thought of. Yet Foreign Land, especially the Foreign Land track itself, transported me straight into an unknown, magical fantasy world. Hakim Zulkufli

Monument
by Majestic

supported by 6 fans who also own “Seven Boats”

2 1/4 hrs long—Monumental indeed! I’ve played both versions of The Clover Suite back-to-back & think the redone more epic, more guitar-driven, & more embellished with effects. IMO, it sounds better now in it’s new, blended, conceptual home. There’s a lot of prog rock/metal to absorb here with lots of climactic solos & ‘drifting in space’ moments. Put your helmet on & ... 🚀... to where no man has gone before! This is truly an EPIC trip! Thank you, Majestic! 👏 9.5/10 👏 Alrihkh

Truths, Lies & Half Lies
by Mr So & So

supported by 6 fans who also own “Seven Boats”

It appears I've arrived late to the Mr So & So party, for which I can only beg forgiveness, but after seeing 'The Dave' at a Steve Rothery gig last year I decided to check them out. Wow!!! 'Paperchase' blew me away with it's melodies, harmonies and genuine rock! Having now had a chance to digest the rest of this album it is now in danger of being worn out! I can hear snippets of Yes, Tori Amos and Van Halen in here, but the overall muse isn't any of them, it's Mr So & So, and it's great!!! Christopher Brammer
