Oh, here's the gospel...

Quote :

The face on the outside is the Schizoid Man, and on the inside it's the Crimson King. If you cover the smiling face, the eyes reveal an incredible sadness. What can one add? It reflects the music.

- Robert Fripp

So, this is the Crimson King...

Reading the lyrics of the two songs, I don't believe that the Crimson King would bother himself with a fight.

He seems instead to be a passive, inscrutable figure who holds court to various characters each engaged in their own opaque, elliptical schemes, as all the while The Crimson King looks down upon these self-defeating machinations with a melancholic, fatalistic gaze.

A better, more even battle would be between News of the World Robot vs. The 21st Century Schizoid Man.

Anyway, I've got an absolutely great joke all lined up as soon as we get a winna, I'm already giggling to myself as I think just how fantastic it is.

And there's that Iron man on the cover of Queen's News of the World.

Maybe we should create a whole sub-forum for the FIGHT! threads?

I have added one to the Music subforum.

Once this is cleared up...

Hip-Hop next?
