Awesome track from an awesome album... more on here please!

Didn't realise you were on here!  Now I can add you to my playlist.  Hurrah!

Solid replay in my car stereo.  Awesome album dude, really awesome.

“Tip Of My Tongue”

On the tip of my tongue
But the words they won’t come

Tell me to tell the tale
A balance of Heaven/Hell 
I see the wheels spin carelessly
But I am a new age bourgeoisie

Under a blood red sky 
Symbolic but oh so dire
Living in a time of floods and unstoppable fire

Is the foundation strong under our feet
A civilization built on sands of the sea

In a time of turbulence
Where is my voice to speak?
Where is my strength to seek?

I’m In need of courage
Watch as the world floats by
Streaming my brain candy bubble gum lullaby
Bubble gum lullaby
Watch as the world floats by
Streaming my brain candy bubble gum lullaby

From up high I sit so comfortably
Will I awake before the flames lick at my feet?

In a time of turbulence
Where is my voice to speak?
Where is my strength to seek?

I’m In need of courage
Wait as the world floats by
Streaming my brain candy bubble gum lullaby
Bubble gum lullaby

Watch as the world floats by
Streaming my brain candy bubble gum lullaby
-----

Fall from up high now what do I see
I awake, flames kissing my feet

In a time of turbulence
Where is my voice to speak?
Where is my strength to seek?

I’m In need of courage 
Watch as the world floats by 
Streaming my brain candy bubble gum lullaby
Lullaby

UNGUIDED EXPRESS & WILD CHRISTOPHER -----(Tip Of My Tongue)

Alchemic Techno.

All Night Long(your favourite song).

Found this on the proverbial cutting room floor when digging through files for the remaster project.

It’s a bit rough round the edges but I thought I’d throw it out there. 

The mission audio is Apollo control reading a selection of news headlines to the crew whilst they are on the outward leg of the journey. A bit of banality during an historic event.

Coming Alive

A dramatic overnight raid in New York City was just one sign that protests at American universities are set <a href="https://www.economist.com/united-states/2024/04/30/escalating-protests-expose-three-fault-lines-on-american-campuses?utm_campaign=a.io&utm_medium=audio.podcast.np&utm_source=theintelligence&utm_content=discovery.content.anonymous.tr_shownotes_na-na_article&utm_term=sa.listeners" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">to continue</a>—a clear historical echo in an already-fraught election year.

The Intelligence: Going back to raid school

Ever since there have been smartphones and social media, there have been concerns about how they might be affecting children. Over the past decade, doctors have seen a decline in mental health in the young in much of the rich world. But whether that rise can be attributed to technology is still a matter of fierce debate. Nevertheless, <a href="https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2024/04/17/what-is-screen-time-doing-to-children?utm_campaign=a.io&utm_medium=audio.podcast.np&utm_source=babbage&utm_content=discovery.content.anonymous.tr_shownotes_na-na_article&utm_term=sa.listeners" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">demands are growing</a> to proactively restrict teenagers’ access to phones and social media, just in case. How concerned should parents and teachers be? Or is this just another moral panic?&nbsp; Host: Alok Jha, The Economist’s science and technology editor. Contributors: Tom Wainwright, The Economist's technology and media editor; Clare Fernyhough, co-founder of Smartphone Free Childhood; Carol Vidal of Johns Hopkins University; Pete Etchells, a psychologist at Bath Spa University and the author of “Unlocked: The Real Science of Screen Time”.

The Intelligence: The kids are alright, turns out

France’s president is known for pronouncements of grand scope with one eye toward history. But when our journalists visited him at his residence his assessment of the state of the world was bleak—a dark, prophetic <a href="https://www.economist.com/leaders/2024/05/02/emmanuel-macrons-urgent-message-for-europe?utm_campaign=a.io&utm_medium=audio.podcast.np&utm_source=theintelligence&utm_content=discovery.content.anonymous.tr_shownotes_na-na_article&utm_term=sa.listeners" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">call to arms</a>. In this special episode, we ask whether his view is accurate, whether his <a href="https://www.economist.com/europe/2024/05/02/how-to-rescue-europe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">proposed solutions</a> would work and whether he is the person to enact them.
