Hi,
 
I'm starting to think that Steven is just another kid that wants to play music, and he doesn't care what it is, and neither do I. It's just what he wants to play and do.
 
I, personally, couldn't careless, if anyone/someone made progressive, prog or bull-shishkabob music! Rap might be good, too!
 
I do think that he is spending too much time working everyone else's stuff, and he should concentrate more on his own, to make it better and more valuable. As such, he is stretching himself too far, and losing the touch with his own group and work! It might be "better" in terms of production and matering, but the music far inferior to anything out there that he has done before. Feels like the Rolling Stones, it's the best studio because they have plenty of money to go around, not because it is the best music or place to do it! Who cares about the music anyway?

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

It's prog.
 
It'll be prog until he releases the Country &  Western album that's in the vaults.

Okay. Time out.
 
Speaking as an Admin of this site I can assure you that rudeness is never necessary here. If you think it is then you can leave now.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Your measures of friendliness are of no concern to me, if you do not wish to discuss then don't raise questions, each has an equal say in these discussion threads and an equal right to express their opinion.

Wasn't it moved from there in the first place?

Good to see. Thumbs Up They're amazing. I've managed to make them one of my mother's favourite bands now even. LOL

nice to see a bijelo dugme avatar.
Regarding the thread, I don't like Porcupine Tree and I don't like Steve Wilson's vocals. I also don't understand all the fuss around Porcupine Tree.

I wasn't having a go at your understanding of a second language, your use of which is very good and shows an excellent level of comprehension, but your understanding of the points being made, which is an entirely different thing, people make errors in understanding the written word even in their first language.
 
This is a discussion forum not a question and answer session, if you cannot handle discussion then don't raise questions.
 
As Argonaut pointed out many English words are of Iranian origin, such as scarlet, orange, lemon and peach, as well as sandal, taffeta, seersucker, caravan, balcony, bazaar and magic. It's a wonderful poetic language and we are grateful for enrichment it has provided our hybrid language.



there`s always differences in opinions dear dean, and you were right at some points but i felt that your approach to this discussion somehow was not very friendly and i just couldn`t discuss with you, anyway i had no bad intentions.

thanks for the good things you said about Iran , you may know that nowruz celebration is near and here`s a present for you hope you like it:

I thought you said earlier you were inundated by the mighty swelling tide of POS (Persons of the Opposite Sex) in uni or something?
