"And now the Starting line-up for your World Champion Chicago Bulls" the greatest intro for a sports team gives me chills.
...and from North Carolina...
Best thing to happen in the 90s...
@@princeofpcos9804 your guard, Michael ... Jordaaaaan
@@nunyabiznis7 they started using Sirius in Chicago in 1978 actually, they had been using it for six years before Jordan arrived in the NBA
They were using that intro for years for the Vancouver Canucks (NHL team) as well as the intro to U2's "Where The Streets Have No Name". Both have that quality of building up the anticipation.
This is actually two songs "Sirius", which was the instrumental portion at the beginning, and then "Eye in the Sky" followed.
Yep... and "Sirius" is used all over the place... frequently at sporting arenas like when a team is about to come out.
@@shanehebert396 it was the Chicago Bulls song when Michael Jordan still played.
@@shanehebert396 I could be wrong, but I also think it was Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat's intro music in the WWF
I was hoping they'd choose the right one with both songs
Lex is going to another level listening to all this new music. She's really growing as a person before our eyes.
She's amazing at initial analysis of the music. I've listened to this music for decades and she points out things I've never thought of before. Amazing woman.
I am just enjoying the growth in appreciation for music
@@timtravasos2742 she is so Smart
Hang in there Brad, it is a process for the newer generation. Us boomers took this music for granted and assumed it would always be complex and musically rich. Now the music industry has destroyed that formula in favor of money, not for artists, but for the record executives.
Lex should really be a Music Critic or Theory professor.
Great at understanding emotions and instances of what the artists were trying to portray and I just appreciate it and I am sure most artists appreciate it as well.
Lex: 'this is a bio-chemical re-arrangement song'. Greatest reaction ever on RUclips. :)
Lex is a pure poet! She sees things in such a unique, beautiful, descriptive way. I should start a jounal of her great quotes for posterity!
Lex knows everything,,,,🤪🤪🤪👍
I agree 100%
Lex may be an alien sent here to show us the truth behind music
...clearly
@@LordEagle So true.
Lex is very perceptive.
Her patience,
combined with her ability to be so perspicacious with her explanations
is commendable.
Alan Parsons was the engineer for Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album.
He did an entire album of songs based on the stories by Edgar Allan Poe, an absolutely essential musical experience.
Agreed. The Turn of a Friendly Card is a great album, too.
Dr tarr and professor fether is so good
Yes that would be Tales of Mystery and Imagination, if I'm not mistaken Alan Parsons invented the VOX for that album in 1974. Yes I remember that, I was 11.
He also was involved with The Beatles ABBEY ROAD; he’s awash in greatness his entire life. He’s musical royalty.
@@tvgator1 I agree that he's definitely musical royalty. I think that his adaptations of the Edgar Allan Poe stories was, and remains, one of the highlights of the rock era. It's stacking genius upon genius and bringing Poe's stories to life sonically. I bought the album twice, only for it to sprout legs and walk away.
B&L, You'll love their "I Wouldn't Want to Be Like You" and "Games People Play" as well.
"Wouldn't want to be like you!" is an epic Dis song :p
@@pdxangst so is Breakdown.
"If I had a mind like you
I wouldn't want to think like you
If I had time to
I wouldn't wanna talk to you
I don't care, what you do
I wouldn't wanna be like you"
epic song
Damned if I do
Prime Time
On the subject of Games People Play, that entire album is nothing less than spectacular.
"Biochemical rearrangement song".
I love Lex!
Try Psychobable from the same album. Actually the whole album is a great listen from side A to side B. My favourite song on the album is Silence And I. A close second is Old and Wise. I was lucky to grow up with this music as a kid. Alan Parsons Project and Pink Floyd kept me going in the tough times.
I remember this song the most from going to see Chicago Bulls games in the 90's. This song was played every game during the player introductions. Alan Parsons was also known as a prolific producer for top bands, as well. He produced Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon," The Beatles "Abbey Road" and "Let It Be," among others.
Alan Parsons had a hand in the production of Abbey Road alongside George Martin.
@@Londoneye57 I think the title is Engineer
@@danhill5619 True. Wiki has him as involved in production/engineering on all three releases, but I think George Martin and Phil Spector were heavily involved with the production on the two Beatles releases
I wasn't a Bulls fan, but MANNNN....that intro was always epic.
Winner Winner Chicken dinner 👍
Always felt this song was about a guy breaking up with his girl for being unfaithful. And he already knows what she’s thinking of saying to keep them together…like he can read her mind.
So, no dice! You done-hit the bricks beotch!
This. Just skip all your excuses. I know what you're up to.
Nailed it!👍🏽
Ha ha. This comment should be pinned to the top. This👍
Hand the OP a prize - accurate and to the point.
He's simply telling his girl, don't play your games on me, I already know all your tricks, I'm just letting some pass coz "the sun in your eyes made some of the lies worth believing".
Spot on.
That is such a beautiful lyric, one of the best ever, I think.
The whole album needs to be heard from start to finish, its a masterpiece
At last someone agrees with me! YES
Interesting fact, Allan Parsons was the engineer on Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon”.
He’s a genius.
alan parsons was also responsible for getting Pink Floyd to give Clare Torry a call to do Great Gig In The Sky
And in other breaking news: the titanic has sunk !
It sounds to me like an Empathic person dealing with a Narcissist in a relationship
When I moved out at the age of 18, I took my dad´s vinyls with me. There was an album called "Tales of mystery & imagination" by Alan Parsons Project- I put it on and it stayed in the record player for the next 3 months, listened to it every day :) The other albums I´ve bought on CD from then on...
members of Ambrosia and Pilot played on Tales
@@1bigrowdy ...and most of the other Project albums too!
Great reaction. Alan Parsons has done some amazing work. “Games people play” was another banger.
And don't forget Damned If I Do
Lex is ALWAYS clueing into what is trying to be conveyed.... music with a long intro, they are trying to take you out of your mind to a place..... In a good way.
Mr. Parsons probably learned that from Pink Floyd.
Lex is right and this is true. They use it for movies as well in opening credits. Our minds have a difficult time just switching automatically to fantasy. You need to create something called "suspension of disbelief" to segway from true reality to artificial reality . A soft montage of images or sounds can do this effectively.
@@johnthompson3522 Mr. Parson's TAUGHT that to Mr. Floyd
@@r.a.m.productions1229 thanks. I wasn’t sure who’s vision it was.
Lexie's analysis of the intro is shockingly accurate. Wow.
Her intuition is almost spooky.
The intro is the Chicago Bulls entrance music.
Sounded so much more epic over the old Chicago Stadium PA.
AAAAAAAAAAAAnd now the starting lineup of your Chicago Bulls!!!
The intro is called "Sirius"
Their entire I Robot CD is fantastic--I have almost all their work.
Alan Parson's Old and Wise, one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard, and Ive heard quite a bit.
They need to react to that ! Wholeheartfully agree.
I told my wife I want Old and Wise played at my funeral.
Can't wait to see Brad try understand Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer". Lol
Still one of the best!
or Blood of Eden, the live version.
Ammonia Avenue is a great album. "Don't Answer Me" is another really good one by them (the video is pretty cool, too... it's a cartoon).
Ammonia Avenue is an amazing album!
You two crack me up. First, theres this sort of visible dividing line that seperates you on the couch. The cushions and the corner line of the room. Then the stereotype of man is more analitical, woman is more emotional plays out as you listen. Lex starts to feel the music and grooves out, but Brad thinks about it, trying to get it. Hes leaning in analyzing and she leaning back relaxing. So funny.
I think that's the corner of the room with a pit group couch. They're sitting at some kind of computer table in front of it. She cracks me up too.
Alan Parsons was about making every song a big production, The Eye in the Sky was said to be about Big Brother watching everyone
Nope, it was inspired by a visit to a casino in Vegas, its talking about the cameras watching everyone.
@@elevenbucks5682 when I looked it up Alan Parsons said what I posted , but you could be right can’t trust the internet. Usually I listen to artists interviews more reliable, peace out ✌️
@@docwatson8848 I dont remember where I read this and like you say you really cant trust what you read anymore.
To be fair to both of you, Big Brother no doubt accesses the casino camera systems whenever the hell the want to anyway. So, same difference.
The best intro EVER recorded! Alan Parsons creates reference quality recordings! Extremely clean technical sound!
The Chicago Bulls arena announcer was brilliant for playing this intro, as Jordan & Co. took the floor…….I still hear it in my head…”And Now, Yooouur Chicagooo Bullllls”!
Same, I can't not recite the team intro every time I hear it. What great times those were, watching the Bulls game and wondering what thing Mike was gonna do that you'd never seen before.
I don't even like the Bulls and I remember that same thing, and I can never unhear it, even though I first heard this years earlier when it was originally released. Damn you Bulls PR team, for your marketing genius! :-)
Enjoy - ruclips.net/video/Zn6kiimEsYc/видео.html
@@georgepiattoni6003 How do you not get “chills” witnessing that? Great uplink, George!
Brad always looks perplexed while Lex gets into every song she reviews!
They should just do separate reviews, one on the lyrics alone, the other on the music. Then maybe one together.
My man never has anything to say
In defense of Brad..in general.
Music is an extremely complex subject.
Between instrumentals..vocal expression..video and authentic meaning.
Let alone..reacting to every possible theory.
Everyone interprets songs subjectively and observes factors differently.
This is why..their completely separate personalities and intellect.. see songs differently.
He is more of a introverted and analytical thinker... while Lex views things artistically.
I don't honestly believe..that they should review individually on different forums.
They are great together and I love this channel.
Each one..adds something different to the mix.
I still value his opinions..as well.
Helps me see the other side of observations.
Annnnnnnnd Now, the starting lineup for your world champion, Chicago Bulllllllllllls!!!!
Aw....... i should have read on b4 i posted the same thing Pacer fan here.
This song is play on the Jordan times...? jejeje sorry Im a Pistons Fan :p
I used it for my wedding reception intro. Loved those basketball games back then
Don't miss Alan Parsons Project "Old and Wise".
Absolutely
Timeless gem.
The intro was a song called "Sirius". It sounds familiar because it was the Chicago Bulls' entrance song when Michael Jordan still played.
Alan Parsons was the producer for Pink Floyd "Dark side of the Moon".
Alan Parsons is one of the biggest names in rock and progressive rock as a composer, engineer and producer. He has worked with, produced and sound engineered with the biggest names in history. most notably Pink Floyd and the Beatles and their individual member's solo projects along with his own projects over the years. He has been living in the California town I live in for 22 years and recently opened a new recording studio here still making contributions to music.
U cant go wrong with alan parsons. He was pink floyd's producer. Check out: psycho babble- mammagamma- the gold bug- pipeline for they are a must. A genius composer.
Turn of a friendly Card is my favorite AP album listen to the song Time amazingly beautiful and bittersweet !
Alan Parson was the sound engineer for the Beatles masterpiece Abby Road and Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon.
Even though he played the keyboard and sang a little bit in his group Alan Parson Project, mostly he would have special guests on the albums...
" I Robot " album was my favorite.
He left.Apple studios and turned a band that wanted to be a Prog band into one of the biggest blue eyes soul bands ever(Ambrosia) producing their first 2or 3 albums and getting them and members of Pilot to play on Tales ...David Pack toured with Parsons.They have several duets acoustic covers of Beatles songs on YT that are great.
Alan Parson's is as famous for producing/engineering records as he is for his music. He helped produce some of the Pink Floyd albums.
Doctor Alan Parsons is more famous for developing the "LASER" that Dr Evil pretended to blow up the moon with
"Sirius/Eye In The Sky" is a wonderful LIVE performance on RUclips by Alan Parsons who engineered the biggest selling Album in USA history=Pink Floyd: Dark Side Of The Moon" which was in the charts for 18 tears in succession :)
18 years. Typo I know.
Artists like Alan Parsons and Steely Dan are sculptors of sounds. You have to listen with headphones to hears all the subtleties.
@brad michael jordans entrance song , where you recognize it from
Wow, talk about a smack in the face. This was one of my favorite songs as a little boy, then later, as a teenager I was a huge Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls fan, and they played the beginning during player introductions (best intro during sports ever), and I had NO IDEA they were the same song! My mind was just blown. I am so glad to go on this journey with you two.
Summer of 1978...I discovered Allan Parsons Project. I was 15 at the time and I needed to hear more of this band.
Alan Parsons is a musical genius. Not only as a songwriter and performer. Also produced a number of high profile albums like "Dark Side of the Moon"
The 70s were so packed with musical greatness that it was hard to get the respect they deserved. Parsons was one who should have gotten So Much more!
Alan Parsons was the engineer who put together Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. This is one of the groups singles efforts. For me, Tales of Mystery and Imagination is the projects best album and always, best with headphones.
Aye, I agree with Tales Of Mystery and Imagination being their best, the only other of their albums to come close are The Turn of a Friendly Card and Vulture Culture.
He was also a PA in the studio for the Beatles Abbey Road album.
@@bevil4aday Cool, didn't know that; talented guy!
Parsons also worked on The Beatles' Let It Be and Abbey Road albums, and was on the rooftop to witness their last historic live performance in January 1969. APP had many hits in the Eighties.
@@marwenplukol9235 Thanks, I did not know that! Cool guy.
So happy you did this!!! Alan Parsons does NOT get the respect he deserves. If you dive deeper into his music you will find gem after gem. A true pioneer in the music industry!!
Alan Parsons is a music engineer. He has had great success with his “PROJECT”. He also was the engineer for Pink Floyd’s Dark side of the moon and Beatles Abbey Road. Both considered to be the most critically acclaimed albums in history. He was in his 20’s then. He was once considered to be the 5th Beatle and the 5th member of Pink Floyd. Love this song! “The sun in youre eyes, make some of the lies worth believing”. Had a girlfriend that this song and that lyric hits the heart pretty hard.
He was never considered to be the "5th Beatle" by anyone. He only worked with them on Abbey Road. That title was reserved for a George Martin or a Brian Epstein. Maybe even Neil Aspinall or Derek Taylor since they were their friends and business associates at Apple Corps.
He actually wrote the song about being in a casino. When you listen to it in that context, the meaning is clear.
Great obscure 80s song, this whole record is actually really good.
Of course! Almost every thing coming out of the MASSIVE Music Mills of the 70s were Grade A Products!
I have so many childhood memories of this song... I lived on an island in maine.. I had my own row boat.. I would row around deer isle singing this song .. 1980ish.. best time of my life
Since this is Halloween season, it's a perfect time to react to the "Alan Parsons Project" song "The Raven", an adaptation of the Edgar Allen Poe poem of the same title. It has a spooky vibe.
Yes, definitely! For Halloween! First, read Poe’s stories and poems….then listen to the songs. You’ll find Alan Parsons adaptations to be genius as he captured their essence. Dr Tar and Professor Fether is a solid rock and roll song too. Cask of Amontillado is brilliantly unassuming - the music belies the lyrics. And the Tell tale heart is maniacally good.
He is dumping her because he is no longer blind to her lies and schemes. He can read her mind and know that she has been playing him all along.
That is my take too. She's a cheater and she's been playing him for a fool' He tells her to find an fool like before.
And she is accusing him of what she is doing...
You talking about Brad and Lex?
@@TheTruthHurts-2024 I am taking about the guy in the song
The chorus of "Eye in the Sky" sounds like the theme to an early-80s family drama.
Alan Parsons is sooooo dear to my heart. Been in my life since a child. So precious to me that I can't even express the unique most precious reason why. Love love Alan Parsons!!!!! Oh my gosh I do soooooo much. It melts my heart & soul. Is part of me.
open your heart and your head, let the music take you, don't judge, Lex is right
From North Carolina, Head Guard, 6'6, Michael.....NOISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yep. Right in there between Boston's strong melodies, and the lightness of a Bee Gees harmony. Dude, just nod your head - she's right.
One of the first songs I listened to last year when my Mom passed. She used play "The Turn of a Friendly Card" album when either driving us to roller skate or to the beach. Great times and a definite tear driver for me. Love you Mom.
My favorite album in high school. I had a lot of albums but this one was my favorite
Alan Parsons has been my favorite since high school.......it added a whole dimension to my being a 'square peg in a round hole'....but I had to be me.....A.P.P actually helped me do that.
Peace to you and all here!
His legendary work on Pink Floyds Dark Side Of The Moon was such a great acheivement. Genious.
"Boston and BeeGees had a baby." Wow. Lex creating new T-shirt slogans.
Lex... you have taken music listening to a whole new level. I love hearing your analysis of how a song makes you feel. It really is a vibrant interpretation, and it's cool as heck to see you do this. You know... I never gave it a whole lot of thought while watching these reaction videos, but by expanding your musical pallet... you're setting yourself up for a nice roadtrip. I've enjoyed all genres of music for so long, that I don't even think about it, but when on a trip... sometimes you feel happy and sometimes sad, etc... When you can select music hat fits your mood (now that you've listened to so many) it really adds to the enjoyment of a roadtrip. I do it second nature.
APP's I, Robot album is simply great, start to finish. So is Games People Play.
Alan Parsons music is mind and mood altering. I always expected this group to become much bigger. The more APP you listen to the more addictive the music becomes.
While this was likely their mot popular song, it is far from their best (IMO). The entire "I, Robot" album is a masterpiece and "Tales of Mystery and Imagination", is a musical journey of Edger Allan Poe stories that shouldn't be missed.
This song came out when I was in 10th grade back in the 80's. Always been one of my favs to listen to.
You've likely heard this at the beginning of an NBA game
Wow there’s a blast from the past!!! 💜🤘🔥
Ladies and gentlemen...... Yourrrrrrrrrrrrr Chicago Bulls! That's the intro.....
This needs to be listened to in the context of the whole album for the complete experience. It's like an opera.
Mind contollerd BS song. Great song
This has the same structure as "Foreplay/Long Time" by Boston: a rad instrumental leading into a rad song.
In October 1967, at the age of 18, Parsons went to work as an assistant engineer at Abbey Road Studios. He was a tape operator during the Beatles' Get Back sessions, and he earned his first credit on the LP Abbey Road. He became a regular there, engineering such projects as Wings' Wild Life and Red Rose Speedway, five albums by the Hollies and Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, for which he received his first Grammy Awards nomination. He also worked on Al Stewart's Year of the Cat album. Was invited to work on the Wish You Were Here album by Pink Floyd, but turned it down to start his own band the alan parsons project. Nominated for Grammy's 13 times.....won it for Eye In the Sky.....
I loved his "I Robot" album. It was the first Alan Parsons album I bought. I particularly liked the song "I Wouldn't Want to be Like You"
Remember the first time I heard this in 82. Blew me away! Though had to sit by the radio to catch it, cos no internet of course!
Brad, you're so busy looking at the screen showing where the plane is, you never look out the window. Lex, this isn't just a float away song. It's a story, and a lesson. You guys are so preciously young! It's encouraging to see you both learn.
Alan Parsons Project has got some tracks. "Old and Wise". "Some Other Time". "Turn Of A Friendly Card". "Let's Talk About Me". "Breakdown". And a ton of other bang-gahz.
True but my fave will always be I Robot!!
The eye in the sky is the phone in your hand. This song was spot on for today's Techno-Spying government. There is a thing called the Hammer developed by the Knot-C's in the CI&A.
You are right. They can read our mind. This song has a message that few people understand.
I was a teenager in the 80's, and this is one of the most iconic songs of those years.....and then that intro, that will forever remind me the GOAT :-)
Alan Parsons is a genius. He produced Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon as well as Beatles' Abbey Road and Let it Be
Steady on. George Martin produced Abbey Road and Let it Be. Alan Parsons was an assistant engineer. And Pink Floyd themselves produced Dark Side of the Moon. Parsons was good, but there's no need to make stuff up on his behalf.
@@MrSpikeMilligan Apologies for my confusion between producer and engineer. But he did get nominated for a Grammy for engineering DSOTM
Young people discovering the brilliance of the past is so heartwarming. imagine broadening your horizons by going to the past! All musicians who are serious look at the past. They may get amazed.
Anything by The Alan Parsons Project is great! He was the engineering genius behind Pink Floyd Dark Side Of The Moon.
He was another of MANY 70s geniouses who would have gotten much more attention if they had come along in the 80s instead. You could only get so many sardines in one can. With all the Fleetwood mac's Hall, & Oates, Bostons, Hearts,Journeys, Foreigners Earth, wind & Fires, Eagles, Queens, etc etc etc etc....even extremely great music folks didn't get their just desserts quickly. It took a great man Like Huey Lewis FOR EVER to break in to the big Time. I think he was already in his mid 30s when he finally kicked in the door!
Their 1978 album "Turn Of A Friendly Card" was absolute fire! It included the hits "Damn If I Do", "Games People Play", and "Time". "Time" is one of the most beautiful songs from that era...
Lex's explanations sound odd at first but are always on point.
Ya know, I love the way you guys search for the meanings of songs without going into "the lyrics said' routine. Totally fun, you two.
oh, alan Parsons Project is greeeeaaaat! Turn of a friendly card, damned if I do, Time, Breakdown, so many more great stuff to discover by them! you probably do not do recommendations from the comments with polls and whatnot, but other bands I would be excited include Borknagar, Schammasch, Vektor, Fallujah
You beat me to it.
They were so good at music production and songwriting. Very talented. Not many seem to know about them.
the beginning is used in soooo many commercials, but the whole song is great
The "intro" is the first track (Sirius) on the album. The 2nd track is Eye In The Sky. Lex is right in that the intro track is setting you up for the main track. Both tracks go together.
Back in the 90's-00's there was a late night talk radio show called Coast to Coast with Art Bell that this song would sometimes pop on; the show covered topics like UFOs, the Occult, government conspiracies, etc, so to have those lyrics followed by a discussion of high-tech intelligence agency surveillance stories was *intense*, bio-chemical rearrangement indeed..
"Live from the kingdom of Nye..."
They interviewed Alan this morning on Off The Record with Joe Benson. Interesting journey through his career. This song came out when I was in grade school.
Lex hit the nail on the head with her biochemical comment. This song proves how music can alter moods and feelings..a hypnotist couldn't do it better..its actually scary to realize how susceptible we are to letting something control us awhile we have no clue it's being done..
The Alan Parsons Project was a British rock band active between 1975 and 1990, whose core membership consisted of producer, audio engineer, musician and composer Alan Parsons and singer, songwriter and pianist Eric Woolfson
Not the first Alan Parsons song I would have chosen, but it got alot of airplay. Lex - if you really want to get tripped out, listen to "I Robot" from the album of the same name. It's an instrumental, but it will take you on a trip!!!!
Yes, this is their top-40 song to get airplay.
I love "The Voice" from that album - Steve Harley 's vocals 👌
Alan Parsons Project is pure chill music. It's for doing nothing but listening and being absorbed.
Listen to Alan Parson’s Project’s Tales of Mystery and Imagination- he puts the works of Edgar Alan Poe to music. Front side of the album is worth a listen.
Brad mentioned the intro musical part sounded familiar. It is played at many event areas - like basketball, baseball etc.
Brad said he wants to try that thing where he lets music just sweep him away but didn't know how: Take Pink Floyd's DARK SIDE OF THE MOON cd, lay down with good quality earphones on - lights off and just stare out a window at the night sky. It will take you there. So cathartic.
This song really hits home for me. Without waiting to see what you conclude, I thought I'd throw out some thoughts.
He's obviously cutting ties with her and not leaving any wiggle room or way out of it. But then he reveals his weakness for her and you see there's actually a struggle. The chorus is him empowering himself. That's where he gets his firm footing. He knows he's right, he knows what she's thinking, and he knows it's up to him to stay resolute.
In the last verse he has it..."so find another fool like before.."
Yeah I knew this song ad a kid and liked it for the catchy chorus. I caught it one a reaction on here a year or so ago, as my long term relationship dissolved. I hope you all appreciate the depth of the lyrics even if they don't relate.
There were certain Artists and Groups in the 80’s who very experimental this group was one of them so was David Bowie and PRINCE
Going back a little here, but hard to resist listening to Eye In The Sky. Or just about anything from The Alan Parson's Project.. Their 70's album "I Robot" is magical. Every song is good.
Alan Parsons produced Pink Floyds Dark Side of the Moon. You can hear it in his music. Try "Don't Answer Me" or "Believe in Me"
alan Parson, is the big producer of pink floyd album. He was the Sound engineer on the Album "The dark side of the moon", alan parson is a big person on Business, he also was the Tape engineer on the Beatles Album Get Back
The beginning instrumental is called "Sirius." Many sporting venues have used it since it came out.
