That's Camel - Watching the BobbinsThumbs Up

Was ist:

"Hear me when I cry -- listen to my song

Of Jay my lovely lady -- to the earth she did belong.

I a country serf, loved her all my life

But the manor lady's bright young son couldn't take her for his wife."

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

Lady Jay - Wishbone Ash (now there's a band I haven't listened to in a long, long time!)

Now this next one: the group is not really prog (but possibly more so than some featured in Prog Archives) ... but this song is prog...

If your circles could be spirals
And your idols weren’t machines
If you could pick up all the signals
And flash on where you’ve been
Maybe you don’t feel it at all
It’s your own fault, crawl boy crawl
If you could quit the miming
and try some different timing
You could get a chance to be free

 

"Without prog, life would be a mistake."

Golden Earring: Are You Receiving Me? (I googled... But this seemed to be so stuck!)

"My name it means nothing, my fortune is less

My future is shrouded in dark wilderness"

(A band i've never digged but I was charmed by this song which I heard in a Finnish film!)

I knew those lyrics, but couldn't match it with a song or band, never considered the Golden Earring for that lyric Oh you googled, well at least it got the thread moving again

 

The new one is Black Sabbath - Solitude.

 

When she speaks to you in a soft voice
Makes you feel secure
Makes you feel so good at things you do
