The story behind
The Alan Parsons Project released Eye in the Sky in 1982, within their album of the same name. The song became the most well-known of the band, with a style that blends rock ballad and progressive details. It has a smooth rhythm, with a voice that feels close, as if it were telling you something personal. The lyrics talk about looking forward, not losing direction, as if one were walking along a long path.
The album cover has a cosmic touch, as if trying to reflect what the song conveys: something vast, something that makes you think. The band follows its commercial approach, but with a touch of progressive rock that makes it unique. The song lasts just over four minutes, but in that time it takes you to a place where the music feels like a guide.
