		<description>Interesting seeing the responses from all these folks, reading through I was struck by two things, 

First off the reviews often seemed to say more about the person writing them rather than the song, an awful lot of them complain of the length of the song which to me sadly suggests the sound bite culture even extends to music. Have they all got the attention span of a gnat?

Secondly quite a few reviwers refer to David Bowie, Pink Floyd and Paul McCartney but none of them made any kind of connection with Roy Harper or Michael Chapman which just shows how little they know! How the heck some of them thought it sounded like David Bowie or Macca is beyond me.

On the plus side least folks took the time to review the song and there was a lot of positive comments.</description>
