Joe Meek Shall Inherit The Earth

From the album of the same name, not unreasonably. The first few lines are from Percy Shelley, and coincidentally this track is being posted on the 189th anniversary of this death. And death is what this track is all about, namely the suicide of record producer Joe Meek. The song imagines the shotgun blast that killed him launching his soul into space, where it orbits the Earth rather like the Telstar satellite.
