The Oh of Pleasure - Ray Lynch

www.RayLynch.com - Seriously. Buy Deep Breakfast.
This is a journey through the world we live in, and beyond. It's what I always thought of when I listened to this song.
EDIT: If you like this video I put together, consider a dollar or two at my personal starving artist fund :D

I used Google Images to find every picture on here. I downloaded 125 pictures, and used 71 in the video.
I thought I should credit these amazing photographers and artists that made this video possible, so here's a text file where you can find the source for each picture (or as many as I could track down):

they had a radio station in the game that played nothing but ambient or instrumental pieces. the DJ was a computer voice that said weird things that made you think... kind of. all i can say is... when you are driving around in a living virtual city in the rain watching pedestrians and traffic react to itself without your interference while listening to music like this... it is beautiful and amazing.

Welcome to Dreamland. A program dedicated to an examination of areas of the human experience not easily nor neatly... put in a box! Things seen at the edge of vision, awakening a part of the mind as yet not mapped and yet things every bit as real as the air we breathe, but don't see.

[@kaecake9575]

He got me into this song. I think of what Dr. Evelyn Paglini said of her predictions, even Jonathan Reed and Travis Walton's abduction. The Area 51 frantic caller. Hearing him concerned about The Sounds of Hell and EVPs makes me wonder everytime where he's at. The Sasquatches Recordings made me a believer, I'm 400 miles from Roswell NM hearing him and seeing Arts Parts makes me think Art Bell was doing the right thing and passing on the information to me. I only knew him for this long and he is missed by me. My friends uncle had an experience with Sasquatch enough for him to NOT go fishing in Colorado. Art Bell would be so proud of the Silverton Colorado Sasquatch sighting. I also didn't know this song is on my favorite GTA IV game. It makes me feel like "I should've been more open to new music" Roswells🛸
