It's mind blowing for me to realise that it is almost exactly 20 years since Porcupine Tree made their first ever live appearance, at a small club called the Nag's Head in High Wycombe, UK on the 4th December 1993. To commemorate the anniversary here is a recording from the archives of the first song played at that first ever show, the Van Der Graaf Generator / Dead Can Dance sampling, David Gilmour meets The Orb fusion of Voyage 34 (years before he did actually collaborate with The Orb!), the birth of PT as a band and a performing entity.  It was recorded straight from the mixing desk so the balance is a bit strange, but actually considering how nervous we must have all been, it's not bad at all.

Acoustic Version of Fly

Lyrics:
She works hard all night, with learning how to fly
Spread those﻿ wings out wide, she's learning how to fly
Add a lifetime too, don't sing hallelujah
Laugh at cons, turn away. Pretends to be the light of day

Burned on the rose, more wine. This time you fall

Desperate sighs, turning every stone just to make sure you're mine
End of line, you'll go back to yours and I swallow my pride
When I'm gone, sing my songs
And in time, this is what gets you high

2nd﻿ bridge : Every moment takes her closer
2nd chorus : And in time, this is your wake-up call

Fly [Acoustic Version]

Porcupine Tree - Dislocated Day (from Octane Twisted disc 2)

Artista:              PORCUPINE TREE
Canción:          Sentimental
Voz:                   YO
Guitarra:           YO

SENTIMENTAL

No quiero ser viejo jamás,
Y no quiero gente que dependa de mí.
No es divertido que te digan
Que ya no puedes culpar a tus padres.
Estoy encontrando que es difícil
Colgar de una estrella.
No quiero ser...
No quiero ser viejo jamás.

Malhumorados y aburridos se quedan los niños,
Y de esta manera desean que pase cada día.
Colocados en el centro comercial juegan los niños,
Y de esta manera desean que pase cada día.

Realmente no sé
Si me importa lo que es normal,
Y la verdad es que no estoy seguro
De que las pastillas que estoy tomando ayuden.
Estoy malgastando mi vida
Con este dolor interior.
La verdad es que no sé...
Y no estoy realmente seguro...

Malhumorados y aburridos se quedan los niños,
Y de esta manera desean que pasen los días.
Colocados en el centro comercial juegan los niños,
Y de esta manera desean que pasen los días.
