Do you know the one with the 7 (or 9?) dolphins - kids usually see only the dolphins, grown-ups see a kissing couple - or those things that are perfectly still but seem to move?
Yeah, that's the thing. I find these much more ingenious than the hag/bimbo jive. I don't get what makes the latter so hot among shrinks and shrinkoids.
It would be fun if Arena could do something like that on their next album, if ........ But how do you surpass Contagion and Pepper's Ghost? Seems impossible ......... but then again, it has to be tried!
It's funny, I like all these side projects: Nolan and Wakeman, Kino, Pendragon, Frost*, and so on and so forth, but come on, Arena are simply such a special treat, light years above all these other outfits. I'm sorry to say it, but I don't understand why the guys are messing around in all these other places, when they've tasted TRUE GENIUS.
Can anyone explain this? "Clive's codes" actually wouldn't be out of place for such a discussion. Hey, Clive, listen now!
