The Castles of Spain
In between clouds
My pane collects the vapours
In misty shrouds
A blanket of ashen flavours
A vision kissed
My hopes persist
Strewn across the fevered sea
I’m whisked into salty air
An ocean of loved memories
Glazed along the clarion glare
This purgatory of Zen
Is a place forgotten
In a world of parted seams
Frozen are the tides of time
I’m lost in a pearly white dream
I’m towering the city skyline
In mysteries of ambiguities
In obscurities of secrecies
Darkness will soar amid the doom
And bare the devil’s disguise
As beauty beams down from the gloom
And whiteness meets the blackness of our eyes
Open minds will scatter these fantasies
What times! What oddities!
No way of telling
What exists above?
No way of knowing
What speaks my love?
Into absence of the deep abyss
My hopes persist
My pane collects the vapours
In misty shrouds
A blanket of ashen flavours
A vision kissed
My hopes persist
Strewn across the fevered sea
I’m whisked into salty air
An ocean of loved memories
Glazed along the clarion glare
This purgatory of Zen
Is a place forgotten
In a world of parted seams
Frozen are the tides of time
I’m lost in a pearly white dream
I’m towering the city skyline
In mysteries of ambiguities
In obscurities of secrecies
Darkness will soar amid the doom
And bare the devil’s disguise
As beauty beams down from the gloom
And whiteness meets the blackness of our eyes
Open minds will scatter these fantasies
What times! What oddities!
No way of telling
What exists above?
No way of knowing
What speaks my love?
Into absence of the deep abyss
My hopes persist

13) Grace by Jeff Buckley
A Brilliant, brilliant album of fantastic songs. Expressive and energetic.
12) Xo by Elliott Smith
11) In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel
It's raw... it's simple... it's beautiful... it's a wonderful discovery.
10) The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Yet another classic. Full of some of the most emotionally-driven songs in pop music; all powerful and lyrical, making this one of Britain's most iconic albums of all time.
9) Doolittle by Pixies
Doolittle is a fantastic album, again being very influential to many 90's rock bands succeeding them, and this album possibly did it.
8) Kid A by Radiohead
7) Agaetis Byrjun by Sigur Ros
The songs on this album are fantastic. The melodies, slow beats and long chord changes, everything about this album is amazing. Dark, heavy, emotional. My favourites: Ny Batteri and Agaetis Byrjun.
6) Seven Swans by Sufjan Stevens
There are albums you love, and then there are albums you worship.
5) Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco
4) Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd
A complete album. Pink Floyd's best, and another rock classic, experimenting early electronic sounds with guitars and piano. A revolution. Best bit: when the piano begins on The Great Gig in the Sky.
3) IV by Led Zeppelin
The best Led Zep album you'll ever hear. A legendary album. The epic 'Stairway to Heaven' is a breathtaking song; a classic.
2) O.K Computer by Radiohead
One of Rock's finest albums in recent years but definitely Radiohead's best. Each song blows you away each time you listen to them. Lucky and Paranoid Android, particularly, are the two best songs.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
1) Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles
This album changed my life and rock music as we hear it today. Each song is a masterpiece. Great music from start to finish and includes one of the greatest songs ever composed: A Day in the Life.
