One of my very favorite songs of all times is IN THE YEAR 2525 (Exordium and Terminus). It's just so well written, with a great driving line and lyrics that make you think. Plus the great guitar work doesn't hurt. (Hopefully just by thinking about it now, we can maybe avoid some of the consequences it brings to mind...)
It was the biggest selling one-hit wonder, with over 20,000,000 copies sold! It was also the number one song on the day the astronauts made the first manned moon landing in 1969. (Neat, hmmm?)
If you've never heard it, or want a reminder, check it out:
(I just wish they hadn't been such a one-hit wonder... All that talent, and nowhere to go but down...)
