When I search for proper songs for the “Your song-of-the-day” thread, I find in most cases only songs with love, relationships or couples. (You know: “I love you”, “you love me too, yeah lalala”).
Aren’t there Rock and Pop songs out there without love or relationships? The only song I remember is “Jesus He Knows Me” from Genesis:
A couple of favorites: The spirit of radio, Fly by night, 2112 (warning: it’s 20 minutes long) and as instrumentals, YYZ and La villa strangiato (which is about a nightmare the guitarist had, so it suits well with me and my peculiar dreams)
This song is about psyichatrist Willhelm Reich´s Cloudbusting machine. He conducted field tests with what he hoped would be a weather influencing invention together with his son. The song is mostly about how about the experiments brought father and son closer together.
In the music video Donald Sutherland plays Willhelm Reich and Kate Bush plays…his son!
