lyrics

I never had a girl remind me so much
Of sprinklers in the summer
Trees that seemed to shimmer
Balancing the light and dark inside me

I never heard a voice that moved me like yours
A train ride by the window
The books I bought you told me
You'll never heal the sadness in her eyes

Rewind until it starts making sense
Bring up the haunting thoughts that still linger
Until the sadness inside melts away
I'll never be loved

The way in silent movies you get to choose
I chose what it would sound like
You telling me its alright
A mother deep inside a lonely girl

And on the phone you said how happy I seemed
The mind won't understand it
You washed away it's sadness
Replaced it with a softly glowing flame

I thank you for what you've done to me
Now I'm back in touch with the child inside me
I'll always be here for you as a friend
You'll always be loved

You'll be loved...

London Song

BBT are standard bearers for modern prog, with a sound that evokes the spirit of those legendary 70s bands whilst managing to also be thoroughly contemporary. It's astonishing that over 30 minutes of music of this quality, with such high production values, is being made available for free - and their full albums are also very reasonably priced...

As a Peter Hammill Fan I can only love this. Don’t get me wrong, this ain’t just a copy. The songs are very individual, but they still have that PH Flair. The jazzy inclusions takes it even further away from that, while the vocals brings it back again . But it all fits very well together. Great album 👍 Boris Stalf

This time, there's really nothing to moan about! I've criticized the band's previous two albums for containing too much pointless improvisations, while, at the same time, I highly appreciated the brilliant songwriting. "Farmhouse Odyssey" have used the past three years wisely for perfecting the latter, and I like the way they root their music in the sound of the 70's, while avoiding the annoying stereotypes of this decade. I'm especially pleased to find a 12-minute track here, that doesn't sound like assembled from parts in the beginner's prog construction kit. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
