it's there in the beginning, and it gets him in the end
he thinks he's got the number, but it's coming round the bend
the chances are remotely, the chances are so slim
it's one in every million, the odds are looking dim
he walks an empty highway, a road not on the map
he's got no destination, they all ended in a trap
the future's looking dismal, the days are looking grim
it's one chance in a million, and even less for him
just another one wasted, and tomorrow will be the same
no one notices anything, and nobody speaks his name
autopilot's engaging, and the dog knows his way back home
same as it always is
is what it always was
was more once more
he wonders on the sidewalk, he daydreams in the street
he can't keep it together, no rhythm to his beat
the morning turns to evening, the evening into night
the darkness feels so empty, with no relief in sight
his house is in a muddle, his clothes in disarray
the phone calls go unanswered, telemarketers today
it's there in the beginning, and it gets him in the end
he thinks he's got the number, something's coming round the bend
he remembers a difference, on a day with a brighter dawn
he remembers a meaning, on a night when the light
was on homing beacon engaging, as he's finding his way back home
same as it always is
is what it always was
was more once more
Born amidst the wonder
Born among the lost
Watching the abandonment of reason
Taking in the moment
Taking up the years
Witnessing the end of our good season
Stirring strange emotions
Conjuring the fears
Each one sees the things they really want to see
Made a world of wonder
We made a world of pain
Now the days will come for the apostasy
I am watching it fall around me
I am listening to every sound I hear
I am doing what one man can do
As the daylight is fading on the Eve
Of the Great Decline...
Dumbing down the Culture
Chaos on the Rise
Watching all the beauty as it's waning
Scene is so familiar
Like words that I have read
The world is lost but soon a new one gaining
I was born amidst the wonder
I was born among the lost
Watching the abandonment of reason
Taking in the moment
Taking up the years
Witnessing the end of our good season
I am watching it fall around me
I am listening to every sound I hear
I am doing what I can do
As the daylight is fading on the Eve
Of the Great Decline...
Richardo Tandy (ELO) klaviatūrų paletė buvo svarbi grupės garso sudedamoji dalis, ypač albumuose „A New World Record“, „Out of the Blue“, „Discovery“ ir „Time“.
Tai 10 balų sistema daug universalesnė nei 5. Be to, jau dabar aktyvumas yra mažokas, grįžus prie penkiabalės sistemos bus labai daug dainų, kurios gauna nulį. Iškritimas bus randomizuotas, o ne žmonių apspręstas.
Tai, kad tamsta nerandi už ką balsuot, dar nėra argumentas daryti visiems taikomas balsavimo taisykles. Be to, juk žinai, jog nebūtina balsuot už viską, gali duot 10, 9, 8, 7 ir 6, likusių penkių balų nebūtina paskirti.
Jau kuris laikas nebebalsuoju LT top 30, nes negaliu išrinkti 10 variantų, o balsuoti už beleką nenoriu. Lietuviai nesukuria tiek gerų dainų, o jei ir sukuria tai čia nepatenka. Siūlau mažinti iki 5 pasirinkimų

Instrumentinė dainos dalis be priekaištų. Tos džiazinės improvizacijos įspūdingos, prikausto dėmesį.
