One eye goes crying
Through the trials and trying of one life
One hand is tied
One step gets behind
In one breath we're dying
I've been waiting for the sun to come up
Waiting for the showers to stop
Waiting for the penny to drop
One time
And I've been standing in a cloud of plans
Standing on the shifting sands
Hoping for an open hand
One time
One eye goes laughing
One eye goes crying
Through the trials and trying of one life
One hand is tied
One step gets behind
In one breath we're dying
I've been waiting for the sun to come up
Waiting for the showers to stop
Waiting for the penny to drop
One time
And I've been standing in a cloud of plans
Standing on the shifting sands
Hoping for an open hand
One time

Probably, but I bet all the neighbors could hear him!!!
I guess "the world just wants you naked..."
Maybe. Steve Wilson is involved with both bands.
Steve Wilson recently remixed a few early KC albums (that orig came out when he was a 5~10 yo) - so who influenced who?
Maybe PT sound like KC.
Porcupine Tree definitely sounds like King Crimson. Crimson released their first album when the oldest member of PT was 11.

Supremely enjoying Fripp and his kooky wife's covers...they're so wonderfully oddball.
I Agree!
Great song, great band, one only wishes Bill would rediscover Three is a Perfect Pair and Discipline
Three Of A Perfect Pair is the right reference.
Super Great!! It sounds a lot like Porcupine Tree.
Maybe PT sound like KC.
Singer is Adrian Belew… He is also a huge part of KC sound in that particular era of KC.
Who is the vocalist?
Adrian Belew is credited for vocals.
Super Great!! It sounds a lot like Porcupine Tree.
the other way around, surely.

I had never heard this tune before. The more I hear it, the more I like it!!!
does anyone hear Frou Frou's Let Go here?...
I hear Adam Sandler
Without Fripp its not Crimson - no one else
My thought exactly.
There's been many King Crimsons (RIP) and I loved them all.
does anyone hear Frou Frou's Let Go here?...
I can see a little bit of that... The tempo and key sounds similar. Thrak predates Frou Frou's Details by 6-7 years, but I'd like to think that Imogen Heap digs Adrian Belew and roles he's had in the Talking Heads, Bowie, Tom Tom Club, etc.

I AGREE!!!!!!!!

You'd better plant a seed !
Then it will give you more seeds back...
And fruits to eat !
I'll bet I saw you at those shows as I went to all of them, good stuff!

I chuckled at this comment, as the only time I ever saw King Crimson in concert, I was in the KC of MO.
It does doesn't it?
Nah, not too much. But the voice strangely reminds me of Bowie!
It does doesn't it?
I just saw them too - wonderful show.
And I was surprised to see that they added a couple of Belew sung '80s tunes to the set list.
Very interesting how Jakko handled that.
Gavin Harrison is other-worldly!
Current incarnation: FOUR drummers!
Nope - just three. The returning drummer is playing keyboards and sprinkling "fairy dust."

Pat Mastelloto lives in Dripping Springs, outside of Austin. He's worked with a number of Austin-based artists, in addition to about a zillion other projects.

Seriously!
Love this tune BTW.
It's cool that they're undertaking a tour again, but honestly, why would any really band need more than one drummer? Three seems ridiculous, but I guess they have their reasons.

Steven Wilson (some Porcupine Tree) = (1/5)*King Crimson + (1/5)*Genesis (early) + (1/5)*Yes + (1/10)*Pink Floyd + (1/10)*Jethro Tull + (1/10)*Talk Talk + (1/10)*Kate Bush
What cj said.
Ya know, I gotta agree with you on that. I basically discovered Crimso thru following BB from Yes to KC to UK to Bruford to Earthworks plus his dalliances with Brand X, Gong, Trigger, National Health, Genisis, etc.
I am excited about the latest incarnation of KC with Gavin Harrison on drums.
Would be THE dream team to have both Gavin and Bruford on drums instead of Gavin and Pat.
Yeah, I'm a big Bruford-head, being a drummer and all. Always liked most of what he's done, so I'm biased of course.
Bill's playing has usually struck me as of course not particularly flashy but when he's not there, you notice he's missing. Like in Yes...Alan is great ofc but when he plays non-Bruford-era material that are his own comps, Yes just isn't the same.
Harrison, sure I can see him as a great drummer in KC.
Can't have too much KC. Not familiar with this album but just grabbed the CD at Amazon with 1-click, and I believe RP gets some token amount for the click-through. Ain't the Internet great (sometimes)?
I agree completely with everything stated. Us two having a beer or two together would probably lead to an interesting conversation
BTW, Steven Wilson is touring and he is finally coming close to us.
I will be seeing Steve Wilson this Saturday in NYC

It's about that powerful sound man, or something Time Warp: Blue Man Group Paint Drumming

Because they rocked like MoFos. What a great show!
Much more interesting than the latter Belew years, where they were just stringing power chords together.
The Crim are currently on tour with 3 drummers (Pat Mastelotto, Bill Rieflin and Gavin Harrison)

Hahahahaha! I felt the same way years ago when Alan White replaced him on the Yes personnel sheet. Mr Bruford has a much wider talent than "drummer".
By the wa, I finally came to appreciate Mr White, and saw them plat last month at an open-air venue in Boston. Vurrrry niiiize.

Mentally refreshing - never thought of it like that before but I think you're right about this song...
If it doesn't have Bruford, it's not Crimson. Pat's a good drummer but nothing like Bill.

Basically everyone but Fripp.

There doesn't appear to be any way to legally download (or stream via Spotify) any KC recordings. Crazy but true.
You should be able to get it from the DGM website.
geez, very yuk.
Everybody in my church loves this song...
...agreed....
More Crimson PLEASE, Bill!!!!
king crimson lite, indeed (not necessarily a good thing)
Basically everyone but Fripp.

King Crimson = (Tool / 2) + (Porcupine Tree - Opeth)
I've been cracking up reading all the King Crimson math equations. They're all well thought out and look quite good on paper but don't forget to factor in ELP somewhere in there.
I assume that all the hardcore KC fans out there already know that they are playing some live shows this August in Chicago, NYC, and Philly. The 2 Nashville warm up shows are already sold out but there may be some tickets available for the other shows. I bought tickets for me and my hubby the day they went on sale so we'll be at the Thursday night show in Chicago at the Park West.
The lineup this time is-
Robert Fripp
Adrian Belew
Tony Levin
Pat Mastelotto
and
Gavin Harrison (the drummer from Porcupine Tree)
They've already completed the first of 3 rehearsal sessions and apparently the double drumming (or sonic fury as Fripp puts it) of Harrison and Mastelotto is promising to be very formidable
The downside to living in the bush in Africa
Envious ... in a good way

King Crimson = teacher
One of my favorite all-time bands. They've had a long successful career for a reason.
Thrack, BTW, is kind of a throwback to the old days. It reminds me of a metallic (and more creative) Porcupine Tree. It may be hard to believe that there are better progrock bands than PT, but King Crimson is superior IMO.
Well said. Cheers, pianocomposer!
btw, I enjoy all periods of KC. Seen them live many times and they never disappoint.
exactly.
Lo and behold it's KC.
Cool, haven't heard this before.
Though personally I prefer the EP version (Vrooom).
The rythem is much more fluid there.
