| Iq – Guiding Light Lyrics | 7 years ago |

This song is a moving song about living in the moment and not putting things or people off to tomorrow. Two people who choose different paths and the regret when that they didn't make the most of time together when one is gone but they continue to be a beacon in the other's life. Where are you now? Who are you now? Is anyone really gone? |

This is a powerful song about people who think they are above everyone else and beyond reproach. I love the lyric "unable to breathe at the height that you flew" it's hugely pictorial for me. These people think they are beyond reproach - crashing a car in Amsterdam and not thinking anything of it. The finale is fabulous. Possibly my favourite Marillion song. Check out my cover if it on my Checking For Echo Facebook page or YouTube channel very soon. |

@[Hanszel:25440] To me this song is about inequalities of life. The opening lines are about someone who thinks they are so high above others, so high that they are "unable to breathe at the height that they flew". These people think they can do things without consequence...."crashing your car in Amsterdam. He did it without knowing/He didn't feel a thing/He just wrecked it and kept going" The chorus is how they feel they are familiar with being among the stars. The end section is very powerful ( as well as difficult to sing) and speaks for itself. |

Amazing song that I might cover. To me it's clearly about walking the tightrope between being a struggling independent musician trying to stick to his principles and selling out to the mainstream music moguls. I love "white wall I had to paint a door" which is about the pressure to write songs (blank sheet of paper is the white wall) only to find you've done it ir someone's done it before. The dots on the shore are those that have either sacrificed their principles for fame or those that have gone by the wayside. The actual buying new soul is when he gives in and signs up to the music moguls. Love it! It sums up being a musician all over. |
