Sound of the Week

The Alan Parsons Project - Eye in the Sky[^] A friend and I have been sharing music for the last two weeks. One album within a specific theme each day. We came up with the themes up front, put them in a jar, and simply grab a random one each day. We've got 60's, autumn, chill, Dutch, music we know from our parents... Now I had to think real hard in that last category as my parents rarely listen to music. For some reason they stopped doing that after I was born (or maybe earlier, but they've got quite a collection from when they were younger). Nevertheless I came up with an album that they listened to quite a lot, unfortunately my friend had the same album and I had to come up with a new one (really, what are the odds!?) :laugh: Ultimately, I went for Mike Oldfield, but my first choice was The Alan Parsons Project. My parents had this best of CD that opened with an intro (Sirius) and then moved on to Eye in the Sky. Needless to say, good memories, great song, SOTW :thumbsup:

I wasn't even 10 at that time, but I remember this song surprisingly well. I used to play with my father's turntable and cassette recorder, and build my own compilations, of whatever I could gather from my family's discs and those I could afford whenever I got some allowance. I'm pretty sure I would find that title in one of those boxes I stored and never went back to ever since. Thanks for that nostalgic window :)

This was released long before I was even born :laugh: I did the same with my parents CD's, but also with the radio, and I used a cassette recorder instead of turntables. The first album I bought with my own allowance was something completely different though, Toy-Box[^] :laugh:

Personal fave of theirs: [Alan Parsons Project - Lucifer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9e9tp3\_PE8). Hmmm. Did not know there was an extended version available. PS - Here's a good New Wave collection: [THE BEST NEW WAVE COLLECTION](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLhD7UVYDdg)

Aerosmith - YouTube[^]

Nice .. :thumbsup: Back then, I knew APP only by name ... and, one of my favorite albums around this time was [Kingdom Come - Living Out Of Touch - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBGzj\_BEDfo) didn't listen to them until now, and they still sound surprisingly catchy :-) And of course anything from AC/DC, such as this one [The Razors Edge - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l\_7SxoQW11g)

You might like Apocalyptica: Apocalyptica - One (Plays Metallica By Four Cellos - A Live Performance) - YouTube[^] Basically a metal band consisting of four cellists. Started out by covering Metallica, but they've made their own songs since their second album (and since added drums and sometimes even vocals) and grew out to be one of the more popular metal bands of today.

A coworker used to sing Thunderstruck, but said "Sander!" instead of "Thunder!". I thought he was just saying my name for some reason, took me months to figure out he was singing AC/DC :laugh:
