I'm looking for a song that I heard on the radio several years ago. You know that year that was several years ago? Yeah, that's the one. Anyway all I can tell you about the song is that it has a prog element in it, or maybe it doesn't it's been so long I don't remember now. Anyway I'm certain someone on here knows what song I'm talking about. Thanks

Styx. Something from the Grand Illusion. Sounds very close to this description.

 Oh the madness. I'm searching for a cassette-only fan club release by an obscure Hungarian psych outfit I heard broadcast on a college radio show in 1981. All I can remember is it starts with a woman weeping and there's a clown involved.Now get on it, I expect results. |

The description is clear, very clear indeed, and thus leaves little room for doubt. The song was released in 1976 by a Dutch band, Alquin, which is filed under Eclectic Prog. It is the final track of an album which is either embarassingly underrated (average: 2.57) or one of my guilty pleasures (4+/5 in my book). With this album, Best Kept Secret, the band makes a move in the direction of US-oriented AOR. This song, Take Any Road, sounds more or less as if Stephen Stills has just crossed the borders of the prog realm: If it is not this one (which I can hardly imagine), I think it's nice to have heard this

I have it narrowed down to two possibilities. It's either the cover of Opeth's "The Drapery Falls" by Abba, or "Don't Worry Be Happy (The Metal Mix)" by Bobby McFerrin.

You would think that, but I said exactly several years.. in other words 1976. And then I said maybe a prog element, maybe not. Which at that point could only mean 'Take Any Road' by the legendary Dutch band Alquin. I'm surprised only one poster was able to figure it out.

Hi,
I'm disappointed ... it wasn't the 1920 Fruitgum Company! |

To respond to the thread's title of "help", we all need some help sometimes. Some more than others it seems. ;)
