a sketch from 1962 written by peter cook and performed by beyond the fringe, 50 years ago and it still seems current.

anyway the above inspired the song and i suppose the incas did too in a roundabout way



On  top of a hill
they bide
their time

they've waited
so long
for their moment in the sun
they've waited
so long
for their moment in the sun

their time is coming
it was foretold
written in stone
long ago

they've waited
so long
for their moment in the sun
they've waited
so long
for their moment in the sun

on top of a hill
they bide
their time
on top of a hill
they bide
their time
on top of a hill
on top of a hill
on top of a hill

Wonderfull job, as always. The music is inspiring and the vox is superb, really top work! But I wouldn´t expect less from you...

Cheers

Etheral and psychedelic... This goes into expanding ORH-folder. I love it, cos' you've captured the atmosphere between music, voice and lyrics extremely well! (It is typical to you, though.. :)  )

Cheapo Westfield sounds like a dream!
