5. The 'Hidden" track, appears after a lengthy pause on the CD version. The little artsy trick that all prog albums must have at the end.

3. This is the "preferred" track from the 2008 challenge, and I think it stands well by itself. It is the narrative climax to the piece. Thanks, Mick!

Never, never again. How many times have we all uttered that statement the "morning after?" This song explores the regrets from the night before and blames it all on "devil drink cider called Johnny Jump Up".

This is pretty experimental for me, and even I feel it is way out there. This is a chronicle of a man descending into madness after discovering the truth in the words he has said and deeds he has committed.
