ok this is actually sort of important to understand if you want to "get" a lot of 70s, 80s, and 90s rock. "prog rock" actually means something pretty specific. it was a subgenre of rock that was a bit more experimental than the pop-ier mainstream stuff and a bit more of an attempt at "serious music" in terms of experimenting with rhythm and other aspects of the music in a more classical way.

for some reason, during the early nineties, EVERYTHING was getting called alt rock and people used "progressive" as a synonym. i have no idea why, ask a linguist. NIN was getting called alt rock and progressive. it was a really weird time. we now have the benefit of hindsight and can realize that everyone was being incredibly stupid, and thus preserve real prog rock for the coming generations.

If I cried out loud
Over sorrows I've known
And the secrets I've heard
It would ease my mind
Someone sharing the load
But I won't breathe a word

We're two of a kind
Silence and I
We need a chance to talk things over
Two of a kind
Silence and I
We'll find a way to work it out

When the children laughed
I was always afraid
Of the smile of the clown
So I close my eyes
Till I can't see the light
And I hide from the sound

I can hear the cry
Of a leaf on a tree
As it falls to the ground
I can hear the call
Of an echoing voice
And there's no one around

My dad is obsessed with Alan Parsons. He got an "i robot" vanity plate for his car. They have some good tunes for sure.

I'm more of a genesis fan personally.
