Yes! I know from where this phrase came from!

Look. This phrase was later used by the italian youth to represent all kind of exploration from man to man overall.

So the impact and simbolism is far more great. Thats why it fits so perfectly.

Obviously the band didn't use that name as a kind of exhortation.
They used for future reference and for young generations in particular. For that they deserve to be appreciated. At the time their aim was to diversify themself from the usual mellow italian prog (PFM, Le Orme ...).

^^Exactly.

Plus the wole thing that they were singing the exploration of man to man (Demetrio says that in the live presentations).

Thats why it all makes sense.

I don't care why they used it, it still makes me uncomfortable to see it.  I think you can appreciate where I'm coming from, even if you don't share my view.

I get your point Patrick.

The title is disturbing, a break with traditional prog. I feel too uncomfortable.
That's how they wanted us to be, after all.

As usual, the polls will be closed on Saturday morning EST (which would be early afternoon in Europe). I will wait until the last moment to vote in most polls.
