  • I blame you for the moonlit sky
    and the dream that died
    with the eagles' flight
    I blame you for the moonlit nights
    when I wonder why
    are the seas still dry?
    don't blame this sleeping satellite
    Did we fly to the moon too soon
    did we squander the chance
    in the rush of the race
    the reason we chase is lost in romance
    and still we try
    to justify the waste
    for a taste of man's greatest adventure
    I blame you for the moonlit sky
    and the dream that died
    with the eagles' flight
    blame you for the moonlit nights
    when I wonder why
    are the seas still dry?
    don't blame this sleeping satellite
    have we lost what it takes to advance?
    have we peaked too soon?
    if the world is so green
    then why does it scream under a blue moon
    we wonder why
    If the earth's sacrificed
    for the price of it's greatest treasure
    I blame you for the moonlit sky
    and the dream that died
    with the eagles' flight
    blame you for the moonlit nights
    when I wonder why
    are the seas still dry?
    don't blame this sleeping satellite
    and when we shoot for the stars
    what a giant step
    have we got what it takes
    to carry the weight of this concept
    or pass it by like a shot in the dark
    miss the mark with a sense of adventure
    I blame you for the moonlit sky
    and the dream that died
    with the eagles' flight
    blame you for the moonlit nights
    when I wonder why
    are the seas still dry?
    don't blame this sleeping satellite

      Men at work's 1981 album, remastered, sounds like it was recorded yesterday with modern equipment (high dynamic range). It all depends on the quality of the recording equipment and of course the editor. For example exclusive use of condenser microphones. Much more expensive than coil microphones but much more detailed recording and a practically flat response.

    I can't believe how beautiful this song is. It's not just nostalgia, it's just brilliantly beautiful, lovely lyrics, chord progressions, amazing voice, very touching in its entirety.

      Not a lot of people know she wrote this about the space program... 1989... The 20th anniversary of the moon landing and everyone was celebrating but Tasmin didn't understand why... They were celebrating an achievement that was 20 years old and in the 20 years since, nothing had been done to further space exploration… We got to the moon and then stopped. Each launch of the Saturn 5 cost 185 million dollars in 1969 and only the command module ever returned.
      Millions squandered including the earths resources and the justification was for "a taste of man's greatest adventure'.
      She also disliked the way science had taken away the mystery of the moon. For millennia man had looked up at the moon and dreamt of all sorts.
      Nowadays, thanks to science, most people just look up and see a huge floating conglomeration of debris and dust compressed into a sphere that reflects the suns light...
      That sense of wonder no longer exists... Not really...
      We can no longer look at the moon and imagine it as anything more than what we know it to be.

      @@Crimsonedge1 As much as science can shatter some dreams, it can also inspire a whole new generation of dreams. Whatever happens, new science is always good. The sense of wonder about the moon may be gone, but soon (NASA, SpaceX working hard on new craft to take us there) a lot more of us will have a sense of wonder about our own blue marble, without borders, FROM the surface of the moon. What's more awesome?

      LoL! I was listening to Slayer Show No Mercy earlier, Then I went into a little Linda Ronstadt, Glen Cambell, and Pete Townshend. My music tastes are all over the place. DD Verni from Overkill said in an interview, You can't be a metalhead if find yourself saying "Gee, I think I'm in the mood for some Tom Petty". I thought that was one of the dumbest things I'd ever heard a rockstar say in an interview.

This one resides at the top within the "elite" and "most precious" pieces of music of all time in my opinion, I'll have it within me till I am no longer in existence and I'm truly grateful for that.

      But she is even more beautiful than the best white women, so there is no racial explanation (or looks explanation) for her not being a superstar. It is that the most intelligent bands and singers are simply above the heads of the average person. She has the complete package, looks, incredible voice, great songwriter, but so did Ian McCulloch, but not many people remember the Bunnymen these days, or The Chameleons UK. And when I mention Rachael Dadd or Kate stables I get a similar response. Most young people think music is an auto tuned fake falsetto rap mumble these days.
