While White Room was an October1968 hit, this one, from 1967, is even more my jam.
I had asked Russ Nicholson to illustrate a sequential art piece of the video which plays in my mind when I hear this:
An Yirinn father, widower who lost his wife to PAU-insurgent domestic terrorism, is called up to fight in Lhoma, and all the lyrics take place the instant the drop of the snare is equal to the instant the gate on the steam-powered TIC opens to let the Bereme Oykh troops out to fight the PAU-tech augmented Lhoman Popular Forces. It ends in a collage of images as the orphaned Yirinn girl and the Lhoman boy are crying over their same losses [half-] a world away.
