I once saw a show like 60 minutes or 20/20 with a segment about people who "feel" music, "see" music (in this case a blind person), "smell" music, and so forth. There was a name for this Syndrome, but I forgot. I too sometimes have images or even stories conjured up in my brain by music. For example - Respighi's (not sure how to spell) "Pines of Rome" sounds like Disney music to me. I tested this on my son who was about six at the time - he said "This sounds like Mickey Mouse!" Of course I knew it was pure brilliance he took after his mother. ;-) -----Original Message----- From: yello-bounces+tourguide=austexecotours.com@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:yello-bounces+tourguide=austexecotours.com@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Rory Filer Sent: Monday, September 20, 2004 2:38 PM To: The moon: beautiful. The sun: even more beautiful. Subject: RE: [Yello] The Eye Hi Julie I like the album very much although I'm suffering from too-much-play syndrome. There was a lot of discussion about on this list starting from about December. You might want to check out the archives at: http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/yello Any opinions here are subjective, but The Eye is right up in my top 5 favorite albums Yello has produced. There's a good mixture of music and sounds and has Boris' trademark touch for the unusual. Planet Dada is glaringly different from the rest of the tracks on the album and my favorite ones are: Tiger Dust Bougainville Distant Solution Star Breath Indigo Bay But all the tracks are great, really. The album is named, according to Dieter, after the fact that we all see images in the mind's eye conjured up by the sounds and the music. He's right. For instance, in Distant Solution, I have this weird image of an 8-year-old rowing across the Atlantic, pausing for a break as he listens to the song and remembers an episode of Fireball XL5 where Steve Zodiak was dancing with Venus. But that's just me ;-) I would recommend this album to anyone who likes Yello's work. This is right up there. There's also a Yello webforum that was spawned by one of the list members if you have lots of time on your hands and care to visit.

I'm a little behind the times and just figured out The Eye is available in the US. What does everyone think of this album? I had a chance to watch the video for Planet Dada and loved it! Also, I remember reading some time ago, that Yello had produced a short film when Zebra came out. Has that been released in the US?
