Songs for the Halloween Season 10

First up today is a great song by the Alan Parsons Project called "The Voice." I find this song unsettling, from the music to the lyrics themselves. It is a rather prophetic song as it envisions a society where we are being watched all the time, and comes from a concept album addressing the increasing technological dominance over our lives.





The second song today has a connection to the first. It is "One Stage Before" by Al Stewart and was produced by Alan Parsons. The song is in a minor key and the keyboards are what really give this one the atmosphere. The lyrics describe an endless case of déjà vu.
