    Skating Away has a special place in my heart. I had just handed in my final paper to my professor at the end of my time at university. When I returned to my car I had the overwhelming feeling that, wow, I am done with my schooling - now what? It was such a strange feeling to be 21 and realizing that I can do whatever I want. I turned on the radio as I drove away from campus for the last time and this song started. It was the perfect song at the perfect time of my life. Skating away on the thin ice of a new day...

    As someone who always felt "apart from", this song spoke directly to me, letting me know I'm alright. Even though anxiety of being different sometimes made me "want to pray" and look for a "sign from the universal mind", I just "pushed off from the shore and made my peace with everyone.". This song is my soul song and thanks for reviewing. 🙏

    The lyrics are bright and pretty straightforward, Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day being a metaphor for to achieve happiness on a day to day basis, but life can be tough and treacherous at times so the similarity of skating on thin ice in which you nay or may not fall into freezing water or get to the other side of the pond and all the stanzas generate examples of this possibility.

    I always interpreted the song as an existential pondering.
    “And as you cross the circle line
    Well, the ice wall creaks behind
    You're a rabbit on the run
    And the silver splinters fly
    In the corner of your eye
    Shining in the setting sun
    Well, do you ever get the feeling
    That the story's too damn real
    And in the present tense?
    Or that everybody's on the stage
    And it seems like you're the only
    Person sitting in the audience?”

    jethro Tull is medieval campfire music or something you’d see at the globe, a theatrical musical spectacular. Skating away on the thin ice of a new day is like running from your problems in the hopes that tomorrow will be better, like you might assess thin ice as being worth the shortcut crossing the lake offers.

    I think the title is a metaphor for waking each day (that is reinforced by the sounds of making morning tea at the open of the song) and going out and facing your limitations, self doubts, anxieties and personal demons. Sort of an expression of, "let's see how I fair today". "thin ice" is perilous and unpredictable, as well as unforgiving if approached without caution and so each day can seem to some people. I've loved this song for 50 years and it is one of my favorites by Tull.

    Yes, Ian Anderson is a musical and lyrical genius. His bandmates are also way above average too. The song means different things to different people. But for the most part it is to offer encouragement to push on, even though you may feel you are skating on thin ice. And/or that everyone else feels this way too, so you really are not alone.
    You really must listen to Thick as a Brick, which is essentially one musical piece, both sides of the album. Not unlike a modern rock/folk symphony. His genius is most evident here, especially when you learn they wrote it, rehearsed it in about 10 days to the level of performance, and then recorded it in studio in 2 or 3 days. Then you truly are blown away!
    Or songs from Heavy Horses Album such as "Moths":
    th-cam.com/video/bn_ktBQGZbU/w-d-xo.html (Moths)
    This one is a nice little tune with more understandable lyrics - but a quote from someone witnessing the taping reveals Anderson's skill: “What impressed me most of all in the course of recording the album was that Ian went into the studio with an acoustic guitar, and in two takes recorded Moths. It’s full of odd bar lengths, it’s not like 1-2-3-4 repeated until you fall off the chair, it’s very intricate. I watched him play the guitar and sing the song - twice. And one of those two takes is the master! It was stunning.”
    musicaficionado.blog/2019/04/29/heavy-horses-by-jethro-tull/ (the quote above is from this review)
    But the masterpiece of that album is the title song:
    th-cam.com/video/1N6GnMkiGHQ/w-d-xo.html (Heavy Horses)
    There is no mistaking the song's meaning on this one - about how the noble and powerful heavy horses are becoming extinct due to modern farming methods. But if this song does not give you shivers, goosebumps or even tears - you have no soul!
    Lyrics:
    Iron-clad feather-feet pounding the dust
    An October's day, towards evening
    Sweat embossed veins standing proud to the plough
    Salt on a deep chest seasoning
    Last of the line at an honest day's toil
    Turning the deep sod under
    Flint at the fetlock, chasing the bone
    Flies at the nostrils plunder.
    The Suffolk, the Clydesdale, the Percheron vie
    With the Shire on his feathers floating
    Hauling soft timber into the dusk
    To bed on a warm straw coating.
    Heavy Horses, move the land under me
    Behind the plough gliding --- slipping and sliding free
    Now you're down to the few
    And there's no work to do
    The tractor's on it's way.

    The song is about situating one's mind in a historical context and overcoming existential dread to boldly act. Year one and passion play portray the sense this drama is of Biblical proportions, millions of generations of iterations of related themes of yearning and drama in which we find ourselves either within or outside of the narrative structure perpetrating or subject to the reality of other beings which we either see as actors or co-creators of the unfolding drama, a story that is unlike a story in that we are within it, writing it as we experience it, with everything on the line so to speak, and only limited awareness of the context or consciousness level of the players involved or even one's own self. Just my take on it. An awesome song.

    The song was originally written when all of the doomsayers were predicting another Ice Age. It's a comment on that.

    Nice to see someone react to a Jethro Tull song other than Locomotive Breath or Aqualung when they have like a dozen or so albums.

    I always loved "bred for humanity, and sold to society ... a million generations from being who you really want to be."
    It is like Ian is saying there is an "original you" inside of each of us, the you which holds all the possibilities of being a human, but then BAM, we're born into a society that pushes us so far away from who we are, where the only value is in what can be bought and sold. We are so far removed, that the act of trying to get back to that "original you" is like skating on thin ice every day.
    Or, maybe it's just a song about ice melting and climate change, and Ian Anderson was onto it 30 years before anyone else :-D

    My favorite Jethro Tull song. Life is fragile, fleeting, and singular. Don’t conform. Be present and reach for the stars. I was a rabbit in the run for 40 years until I quit my stupid job two years ago to live life 100%. Carpe Diem!!
    'Cause you were bred, for humanity
    And sold to society
    One day you'll wake up, in the present day
    A million generations removed from expectations
    Of being who you really want to be

    Ian Anderson always paints a mental picture with his lyrics. To understand TULL go back to their beginnings and understand Ian Anderson, the man we are listening to, then watch some videos to see just how much of a showman he was and to a lesser degree, still is! Also listen to the whole album as one.

    My favorite line from the tune is , " one day you wake up a million generations removed from expectations of who you really want to be " . If you let people give you advice and accept it you will be living their life not your own .

    As someone said on another video on youtube, it's a 'Musical Stew'. Absolutely correct!!!! You can't categorize J.T. stuff, it's what is is.
