Van Der Graaf Generator - Refugees
photo © Luca Fiaccavento - www.lucafiaccavento.net www.flickr.com From "The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other" (1970) N. was somewhere years ago and cold: ice locked the people's hearts and made them old. S. was birth to pleasant lands, but dry: I walked the waters' depths and played my mind. E. was dawn, coming alive in the golden sun: the winds came gently, several heads became one in the summertime, though august people sneered... we were at peace, and we cheered We walked along, sometimes hand in hand, between the thin lines marking sea and sand; smiling very peacefully, we began to notice that we could be free, and we moved together to the West. W. is where all days shall someday end; where the colours turn from grey to gold, and you can be with the friends. And light flakes the golden clouds above: West is Mike and Susie, West is where I love. There we shall spend the final days of our lives... tell the same old stories: well, at least we tried. So into the West, smiles on our faces, we'll go; oh! yes, and our apologies to those who'll never really know the Way.... We're refugees, walking away from the life we've known and loved... nothing to do nor say, nowhere to stay; now we are alone. We're refugees, carrying all we own in brown bags, tied up with string... nothing to think, it doesn't mean a thing, but we'll be happy on our own. West is Mike and Susie; West is Mike and Susie; West is where I love, West is refugees' home.

Van Der Graaf Generator - Pilgrims
A song written by Peter Hammill and David Jackson Song: Pilgrims Artist: Van Der Graaf Generator Album: Still Life Year: 1976 Genre: Progressive Rock Lyrics: Sometimes you feel so far away, distanced from all the action of the play, unable to grasp significance, marking the plot with diffident dismay, stranded at centre stage, scrabbling through your diary for a lost page: unsure of the dream. Kicking a stone across the beach, aching for love and comfort out of reach: the way ahead seems to be so bleak, there's no-one with any friendship left to speak or show any relation between your present and future situations... lost to the dream. Away, away, away--look to the future day for hope, some form of peace within the growing storm. I climb through the evening, alive and believing in time we shall all know our goals and so, finally, home; for now, all is secret - though how could I speak it, allow me the dream in my eye! I've been waiting for such a long time just to see it at last, all of the hands tightly clasped, all of us pilgrims. Walking in silence down the coast, merely to journey - here hope is the most, merely to know there is an end; all of us - lovers, brothers, sisters, friends hand in hand. Shining footprints on the wet sand lead to the dream. The time has come, the tide has almost run and drained the deep: I rise from lifelong sleep. It seems such a long time I've dreamed but now, awake, I can see we are pilgrims and so must walk this road, unknown in our <b>...</b>

Van Der Graaf Generator - house with no door
There's a house with no door and I'm living there at nights it gets so cold and the days are hard to bear inside. There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in, falling through my head as I try to think out time. I don't know you, you say you know me, that may be so, there's so much that I am unsure of ... You call my name, but it sounds unreal, I forget how I feel, my body's rejecting the cure. There's a house with no bell, but then nobody calls; I sometimes find it hard to tell if any are alive at all outside. There's a house with no sound; yes, it's quiet there ... there's not much point in words if there's no-one to share in time. I've learned my lines, I know them so well, I am ready to tell whoever will finally come in Of the line in my mind that's cold in the night, it doesn't seem right when there's that little dark figure running ... There's a house with no door and there's no living there: one day it became a wall ... well I didn't really care at the time. There's a house with no light, all the windows are sealed, overtaxed and strained NOW NOTHING IS REVEALED BUT TIME I don't know you, you say you know me, that may be so, there's so much that I am unsure of ... You call my name, but it sounds unreal, I forget how I feel, my body's rejecting the cure ..... Won't somebody help me ...

Van Der Graaf Generator - Wondering
Song: Wondering Artist: Van Der Graaf Generator (VDGG) Album: World Record Year: 1976 Genre: Progressive Rock Lyrics: I will arise: in the depths, I will open my eyes; as my breath almost fails me, survive. Wait - there's something unclear, there's something I fear now drawing close. Could it be you? Whose is that voice? Is it now time to make a choice? Ah - that irrational pain! This ridiculous brain now bursts with joy. Could it be me? Could it be now? Should I begin to take my vows? I will return: as I live, as I breathe, as I burn I swear I will come through, with my hands stretching out in the dark, with my eye pressed up tight to the glass, wondering if it's all been true. Wondering, wondering, wondering... Wondering if it's all ... wondering if it's all been true...

Van der Graaf Generator - Nutter Alert
Van der Graaf Generator - Nutter Alert. Recorded in Leverkusen - 2005. Peter Hammill-David Jackson-Hugh Banton-Guy Evans. Nutter Alert (Present 2005) It might come in a letter, darkness falls in a telephone call; I await the unexpected with one ear to the party wall. Is it the pricking of the conscience, is it the itching of hair shirt, is it the dictionary definition of a precipice to skirt? It's the nutter alert. Though this face is familiar something in it has bred contempt; I never asked for your opinion or your back-handed compliments. Oh, but here comes that special nonsense all the words out in a spurt, the unhinging of the trolley as the mouth begins to blurt... it's the nutter alert I can see we're in trouble from that glint in the eye you've got; there's no sense to the story, comprehensively lost, the plot. And how contorted is that logic you so forcefully exert: you're a car crash in the making, head-on, that's a racing cert. It's the nutter alert, this is the nutter alert.

Van Der Graaf Generator - A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers (Pawn Hearts) 1971 with Lyrics
Peter Hammill - guitar, piano/keyboard and vocals Hugh Banton - organ, bass pedals and bass guitar Guy Evans - drums David Jackson - saxophone and flute Lyrics: I. Eyewitness Still waiting for my saviour, Storms tear me limb from limb; My fingers feel like seaweed... I'm so far out I'm too far in. I am a lonely man...my solitude is true My eyes have borne stark witness And now my knights are numbered too. I've Seen the smiles on dead hands-- The stars shine, but they're not for me. I prophesy disaster and then I count the cost.... I shine but, shining, dying, I know that I am almost lost. On the table lies blank paper/my tower is built on stone/ I only have blunt scissors/I only have the bluntest home.... I've been the witness, and the seal of death Lingers in the molten wax that is my head. When you see the skeletons of sailing-ship spars sinking low You'll begin to wonder if the points of all the ancient myths Are solemnly directed straight at You... Ii. Pictures/Lighthouse (Eddies/rocks/ships/collision/remorse.) Iii. Eyewitness No time now for contrition: The time for that's long past. The walls are thin as tissue And if I talk I'll crack the glass. So I only think on how it might have been, Locked in silent monologue, in silent scream Anyway, I'm much too tired to speak And, as the waves crash on the bleak Stones of the tower, I start to freak.... ...and find that I am overcome...

Van Der Graaf Generator - Mirror Images
"Vital" 1978 If I'm the mirror and you're the image then what's the secret between the two, these 'me's and 'you's, how many can there be? Oh, I don't mind all that around the place, as long as you keep it well away from me. I've begun to regret that we ever met between the dimensions. It gets such a strain to pretend that the change is anything but cheap... with your infant pique and your angst pretensions sometimes you act like a creep. And now I'm standing in the corner, looking at the room and the furniture in cheap imitation of alienation and grief. And now we're going to the kitchen, fix ourselves a drink and a cigarette, getting no closer to being the joker or thief. Still, I reflect, this nervous wreck who stands before me can see as well, can surely tell that he's not yet free; he can turn aside, but can no more ignore me than know which one of us is he, than tell what we are going to be, than know which one of us is me. And now we're going to the kitchen, fix ourselves a drink and a cigarette, getting no closer to being the joker or thief. These mirror images, these mirror images won't stay, go away, are no help. In these mirror images of myself there are no secrets.

Van Der Graaf Generator - Afterwards [HQ sound]
Lyrics: You stare out in yellow eyes Larger than my mind In viscous pools of joy Relaxing, we glide It's all too beautiful For my mind to bear And as we shimmer into sleep Something's unshared. But, seeing the flower That was there yesterday A tear forms just behind The soft peace of your shades The world's too lonely For a message to slip But between the dying rails of peace You trip The petals that were blooming Are just paper in your hand Your eyes, which were clear in the night Are opaque as you stand It was too beautiful For it to last These visions shimmer and fade out of The glass The petals that were blooming Are just paper in your hand The petals that were blooming Are just paper in your hand The petals that were blooming Are just paper in your hand

Van Der Graaf Generator - Darkness
Van Der Graaf Generator - Darkness. From album THE LEAST WE CAN DO IS WAVE TO EACH OTHER (1969) Record: Leverkusen - 2005. Peter Hammill-David Jackson-Hugh Banton-Guy Evans. DARKNESS - THE LEAST WE CAN DO IS WAVE TO EACH OTHER (1969). A song of numbers: although I am no numerologist, the circumstances of writing this highly instinctual song dictated its form and direction. It was composed on the night of 11th November, 1968, Remembrance Day, by chance. Some years before I wrote a novel which purported (with devastating failure) to be an Icelandic saga; on re-reading it, some time after finishing these lyrics, I was struck by the opening sentence: 'It was the eleventh day of the eleventh month.' November is, of course, the month of Scorpio, under which sign I was born, and my life number is 11. It was, I suppose, inevitable that a song about fate should be wrought amid these conjunctions. To this day I do not know how Hereward the Wake came to be involved. Day dawns dark, it now numbers infinity... Life crawls from the past, watching in wonder I trace its patterns in me.... Tomorrow's tomorrow is birth again/ Boats burn the bridge in the fens/ The time of the past returns to my life and uses it. Don't blame me for the letters that may form in the sand; don't look in my eyes, you may see all the numbers that stretch in my sky and colour my hand... Don't say that I'm wrong in imagining that the voice of my life cannot sing! Fate enters and talks in old words: They amuse it <b>...</b>

Van Der Graaf Generator - "Necromancer" - live version - 1968
Soon the world will come to rights ... Audio only, Van Der Graaf Generator here play live one of my favourite VDGG songs: "Necromancer". This is a very early live version from the album "The Box", recorded live at the BBC radio session Top Gear on 18th November 1968, a radio show hosted by John Peel, and aired on November 30. The line-up around this time was Keith Ellis, Hugh Banton, Guy Evans, Peter Hammill and Chris Judge Smith - before David Jackson ever joined the band. Chris Judge Smith left the band during November, and there are conflicting reports about whether he was still a member when this recording was made (reports from the booklet included with "The Box" and from the book "The Book" by Jim Christopulos and Phil Smart). Therefore, it could be Chris Judge Smith here on backing vocals. This live version was requested by 'thefatmonk'. I compiled the video myself utilising footage mostly downloaded from YouTube, with some of my own added effects and filters. Please check out my other videos. Comments are most welcome.

Van Der Graaf Generator - Meurglys III,the Songwriters Guild
Van Der Graaf Generator - Meurglys III, the Songwriter's Guild - Live @ Rosignano (LI) 29/3/2008 Sorry for the video quality, but I had to film it without using the display to avoid disturbing other spectators. Lyrics: These days I mainly just talk to plants and dogs, all human contact seems painful, risky, odd, so I stay acting god in my own universe where I trade cigarettes in return for songs. The deal's made harder the longer I go on: I find me gone from all but secret languages. If only I could phrase satisfactory words in conversation, to make my passion heard, if only.... Meurglys III, he's my friend, the only one that I can trust to let it be without pretence, there's no-one else. It's killing me, but in the end there's no-one else I know is true, there's none in all the masks of men, there's nothing else but my guitar... I suppose he'll have to do. Talking in tongues is easy when you know how, quite pleasing, but still nothing works out right. Pressurised lungs, heart bleeding, you'd better slow down and show that you can make it through the night. However dark it seems, the present is just the present, beyond it no further darkness lies concealed and through these desperate dreams, this longing for friends and comfort, you know that in the end all will be revealed. When no more plants or dogs or rooms are there to hear you, and no-one is left near you, then you'll see: in the end there's only you and Meurglys III, and this is just what you chose to be.

Van der Graaf Generator - Every Bloody Imperor - From album "Present" - 2005. Recorded in Leverkusen, 2005. Peter Hammill-David Jackson-Hugh Banton-Guy Evans. Every Bloody Imperor (Present 2005) By this we are all sustained: a belief in human nature and in justice and parity...all we have is the faith to carry on. Imperceptible the change as our votes become mere gestures and our lords and masters determine to cast us in the roles of serfs and slaves in the new empire's name. Yes and every bloody emperor claims that freedom is his cause as he buffs up on his common touch as a get-out clause. Unto nations nations speak in the language of the gutter; trading primetime insults the imperial impulse extends across the screen. Truth's been beaten to its knees; the lies embed ad infinitum till their repetition becomes a dictum we're traitors to disbelieve. With what impotence we grieve for the democratic process as our glorious leaders conspire to feed us the last dregs of imperious disdain in the new empire's name. Yes and every bloody emperor's got his hands up history's skirt as he poses for posterity over the fresh-dug dirt. Yes and every bloody emperor with his sickly rictus grin talks his way out of nearly anything but the lie within because every bloody emperor thinks his right to rule divine so he'll go spinning and spinning and spinning into his own decline. Imperceptible the change as one by one our voices falter and the double standards of propaganda still all our <b>...</b>
