I’ve wanted to respond to this video for quite a while but haven’t had time. Again, just giving my perspective on this but being a GenXer (adjusts the soapbox), I grew up listening to many different female artists in the late ‘70s. I can remember some radio stations being “soft rock” and hearing the likes of Linda Ronstadt, Karen Carpenter, Melissa Manchester and Sheena Easton. My parents owned albums by Sarah Vaughan and Barbara Streisand, etc., and while I wasn’t crazy about their genre of music as a kid, I was most likely influenced by it and understood what being an accomplished and talented singer meant.Programming and social conditioning through mass public ceremonies is nothing new and continues to this day, weaponized by the corporate entertainment industry to further degrade society. What first began through the planned counter-culture revolution of the 1960s, has now descended into a relentless onslaught of overt messaging through mass media. All of this is preparation for a new AEON being ushered in through even greater levels of psychological and cultural degradation, with the end game being the fragmentation of society through the institution of social engineering.
“L.A. has been in a celebratory mood all this week as one of our city’s most popular touring acts, Depeche Mode, upped the ante promo-wise for their upcoming Global Spirit Tour, which begins in Sweden next week. Doing press and rehearsals in town the past few days, the band also decided to do an intimate show for fans at the Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever Cemetery last night — a thank-you for helping them make history by selling out three nights at the Hollywood Bowl and adding a fourth night to the run, something no band had ever done before...”Maybe it's best to.post when the Kpop and BoTS people are asleep.....do they sleep though?.....lol
Just a quick reminder, here's Depeche Mode lighting up the Empire State Building, it occurs at 2.23.....which is coincidentally an inverted 322.
Just saying.
Yes I was aware of this (sure I posted it here) Here's Dave Gahan spelling it out in true Masonic Mode stylee...“L.A. has been in a celebratory mood all this week as one of our city’s most popular touring acts, Depeche Mode, upped the ante promo-wise for their upcoming Global Spirit Tour, which begins in Sweden next week.

Your post was lovely and i enjoyed reading it.I say this because many artists today now use Madonna as their gauge and inspiration, which is an awful and sad reflection of today’s pop music.
It does kind of change the context of certain old favourites, especially when you dig into the roots of some of these bands.Is pop music anxious and depressed because we are too?
I was listening to this song the other day
In one interview, Parsons said the song's title came from its vocalist and co-writer Eric Woolfson, who spent a lot of time in Las Vegas about that time.
"He had a certain fascination with the hidden cameras that were there watching the tables, taping the games and what have you," Parsons told the interviewer. "It was more than just the hidden cameras. It was also kind of 1984 syndrome. It covers the fact we can never be left to our own devices; we will always be watched."

It seems as though "eyes in the sky" or "ever watchful eyes" was quite a theme in music in the 80s.
On their Eve album, they have an instrumental to Lucifer.....two weird dudes.
Yeah. Eye in the Sky is sometimes titled Sirius. Pretty sure you know the importance of the Dog Star in the Occult/Esoteric. Their album cover also has the eye of Horus.It does kind of change the context of certain old favourites, especially when you dig into the roots of some of these bands.
Thanks for sharing. Didn't see that originally b/c still new. Kinda sad now, but can't say I'm surprised that Florence is affected by this stuff. Most musical artists with any popularity are.Yeah. Eye in the Sky is sometimes titled Sirius. Pretty sure you know the importance of the Dog Star in the Occult/Esoteric. Their album cover also has the eye of Horus.
Its funny because i've often listened to it and never really cared about the title or the meaning, it gripped me the other day. I guess my mind was alert that day.
Speaking of the Dog star, did you ever read VC's analysis of Florence's album, Ceremonials?

Yes, this music video by New Order springs to mind immediately.Yeah. Eye in the Sky is sometimes titled Sirius. Pretty sure you know the importance of the Dog Star in the Occult/Esoteric.
I hadn't but I have now. It reminded of this video I watched some time ago.Speaking of the Dog star, did you ever read VC's analysis of Florence's album, Ceremonials?
