I thought that Southern Empire were Australian. I was in Australia in 1987 for a year or so with my old friend Laura, I fell in love with the barrier Reef, Cairns is a wonderful, beautiful rain forest. It really did rain every day. beautiful clear turquoise water. And a great Afghani restaurant, I have always loved Middle Eastern food, I found many great Middle Eastern restaurants in New York City, I miss NYC.
Real music,creativity,incredibly musicianship, for now on, one of my favorite band ,frontman sound like Peter Gabriel in some way!! Excellent job and thanks for posting !
Brilliant ! Everything is inspired, controlled ... Progression of the tune is just perfect. Their ability to bring us high in the sky during this >20mn trip qualifies them as one of the best current Prog band in activity. Thank you for allowing us to share such great moments with you guys. Congratulations from France
Lyrics : Part 1 - the garden of unearthly delights Welcome to the garden of dreams A place filled with kaleidoscopic sights Welcome to the essence of 'not as it seems' The place known as 'The Garden... Come and have the time of your life Indulge in a concoction of the strangest wild life Be thrilled, be scared, live on the edge of the knife Come on down to The Garden... of Unearthly Delights Hieronymus got it right Ever-changing black to white Come in darkness, come in light To the Garden, (to The Garden, to The Garden) of Unearthly delights Shed all your cares and fan the fire Enjoy the elevation of the hidden desire To get all you want, just crawl into the mire There's nothing like the Garden... of Unearthly Delights Hieronymus got it right Ever-changing black to white Come in darkness, come in light To the Garden, (to 'The Garden') Hieronymus got it right, Ever-changing black to white. Come in darkness, come in light, To the Garden, (to The Garden, to The Garden) of Unearthly delights. PART ll - DRAGON'S LAIR Sinking low, drowning fast, It's getting deeper, the longer you last. Can't touch ground, can't see the top, Don't look up or down, you might not stop. You try and try, but try as you might, You just can't crawl out of the night. Shivering cold, all but stripped bare, You're making your way to the dragon's lair. Slowly going underground, Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound, Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour. You find the strength from deep within, You know this time you have to win, You hope it's not too late for you to rise again. Careful now, you're almost there, Just a little further… Now it begins. PART lll - UNDERGROUND What do you do when you are like this? Can you see at all? When it gets you, it spits you right in the face! And when all that you have is gone, There's no one left but you and you alone. Slowly going underground, Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound, Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour. You find the strength from deep within, You know this time you've got to win, You hope it's not too late for you to rise again. Slowly going underground, Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound, Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour. You find the strength from deep within, You know this time you've got to win, You hope it's not too late for you to rise again. PART lV - REALIZATION Finally knowing where you're bound, Restoring life to barren ground Your heart is beating so much faster than before. You found the strength from deep within, You knew this time you had to win, You know it's not too late for you to rise again. PART V - THE WAY BACK HOME Now you've been to ‘The Garden' What delights did you think you'd find? Did you feel good in ‘The Garden'? Enclosing everything, inside your mind. Always something tearing you apart. (In ‘The Garden'.) Always something breaking your heart. (In ‘The Garden'.) Now you're free from ‘The Garden'. You turned your back on that way of life. Found in a better world, reason takes you another way. Bound for a better land, where the season renews you every day. Free…, In charge of my soul again. I can see…, what's outward and what is within. All around, hear the sound of two hearts that beat as one, I've finally found my way back home…, to the place where my heart belongs. Never alone…, turn my face to the rising sun Joyful tears, no more fears, and my mind is finally clear, Ooh, it's good to be back home.
One of the most underrated Prog bands ever.
Prog bands always underrated because the media don't like the complex things.

Wooow amazing I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to discover
extremely good LIVE performance !
Grandísimo álbum y en vivo se oyen igual, es de esas bandas que valen el boleto por verlos. Excelentes músicos, quisieran que vinieran a México.
from minute 20, it's my phone ringtone for 5 years
Gotta say this is amazing! These guys are the love child of Peter Gabriel era Genesis, Saga and Toto
Hope they can get back soon... They're amazing!
A recent rediscovery for me and quite worth the listen!
Just revisiting this song - one of my all time favorites songs, ever. Worthy of redundancy lol
Exelente,,,hace mucho conoci esta banda y este disco es el que mas me ha gustado,,,,sin querer lo encontre en youtube que bueno suenan ,,,exelente
That is my favourite song from them, I Power nap to it because it is over 20 minutes long!
Excellent Band...❗️

Queria muito que eles pudessem voltar a tocar e lançar um álbum,gostei demais. Muito foda
Lançaram em 2022
@@felipehamouifurquim Simmmmmm, acabaram de lançar um novo álbum: Seven Chambers. E está tão incrível!! Bom conhecer mais fãs brasileiros :)

Morceau magnifique digne d'un supeŕs ready! Et quelle voix!
unitopia,, de genios,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

wonderful prog-rock band!
Excellent progressive rock
Lyrics :
Part 1 - the garden of unearthly delights
Welcome to the garden of dreams
A place filled with kaleidoscopic sights
Welcome to the essence of 'not as it seems'
The place known as 'The Garden...
Come and have the time of your life
Indulge in a concoction of the strangest wild life
Be thrilled, be scared, live on the edge of the knife
Come on down to The Garden... of Unearthly Delights
Hieronymus got it right
Ever-changing black to white
Come in darkness, come in light
To the Garden, (to The Garden, to The Garden) of Unearthly delights
Shed all your cares and fan the fire
Enjoy the elevation of the hidden desire
To get all you want, just crawl into the mire
There's nothing like the Garden... of Unearthly Delights
Hieronymus got it right
Ever-changing black to white
Come in darkness, come in light
To the Garden, (to 'The Garden')
Hieronymus got it right,
Ever-changing black to white.
Come in darkness, come in light,
To the Garden, (to The Garden, to The Garden) of Unearthly delights.
PART ll - DRAGON'S LAIR
Sinking low, drowning fast,
It's getting deeper, the longer you last.
Can't touch ground, can't see the top,
Don't look up or down, you might not stop.
You try and try, but try as you might,
You just can't crawl out of the night.
Shivering cold, all but stripped bare,
You're making your way to the dragon's lair.
Slowly going underground,
Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound,
Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour.
You find the strength from deep within,
You know this time you have to win,
You hope it's not too late for you to rise again.
Careful now, you're almost there,
Just a little further…
Now it begins.
PART lll - UNDERGROUND
What do you do when you are like this?
Can you see at all?
When it gets you, it spits you right in the face!
And when all that you have is gone,
There's no one left but you and you alone.
Slowly going underground,
Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound,
Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour.
You find the strength from deep within,
You know this time you've got to win,
You hope it's not too late for you to rise again.
Slowly going underground,
Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound,
Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour.
You find the strength from deep within,
You know this time you've got to win,
You hope it's not too late for you to rise again.
PART lV - REALIZATION
Finally knowing where you're bound,
Restoring life to barren ground
Your heart is beating so much faster than before.
You found the strength from deep within,
You knew this time you had to win,
You know it's not too late for you to rise again.
PART V - THE WAY BACK HOME
Now you've been to ‘The Garden'
What delights did you think you'd find?
Did you feel good in ‘The Garden'?
Enclosing everything, inside your mind.
Always something tearing you apart. (In ‘The Garden'.)
Always something breaking your heart. (In ‘The Garden'.)
Now you're free from ‘The Garden'.
You turned your back on that way of life.
Found in a better world, reason takes you another way.
Bound for a better land, where the season renews you every day.
Free…, In charge of my soul again.
I can see…, what's outward and what is within.
All around, hear the sound of two hearts that beat as one,
I've finally found my way back home…, to the place where my heart belongs.
Never alone…, turn my face to the rising sun
Joyful tears, no more fears, and my mind is finally clear,
Ooh, it's good to be back home.
Nuostabi grupė, kaip šviežio oro gurkšnis.
Com certeza esse baterista ouviu muito Mark Zonder ex fates warning.
21:09 Supper's Ready xD
They were heavily influenced by Genesis and The Beatles among other bands...
Same words......same chords..........same licks. hmmmm
@@OriginalSamClark
I fucking love these guys.
I got a fever. And the only cure is....more xylophone.
3 dislikes? really? suppose they are deft...
El final es a lo genesis!!
What is John Carmack doing on bass?
Asek juga, suka !!
The Garden is for Unitopia what Supper's Ready is for Genesis or Close to the Edge to Yes !
Where can I buy their CDs?
You can't. They are metaphysical beings: perfect.
Me encantó, una pena que el final sea literalmente Supper's ready porque opaca al resto de la obra que es muy original.
Last part is a kind of tribute to super's ready
Poland ....I hope so
phoda
