A track off of Ian Anderson's solo album Rupi's Dance in 2003.

Lyrics - I get lost in crowds: if I can, I remain invisible

to the hungry mouths. I stay unapproachable.

I wear the landscape of the urban chameleon.

Scarred by attention. And quietly addicted to innocence.

So, who am I? Come on: ask me, I dare you.

So, who am I? Come on: question me, if you care to.

And why not try to interrogate this apparition?

I melt away to get lost in this quaint condition.

At starry parties where, amongst the rich and the famous

Im stuck for words: or worse, I blether with the best of them.

I see their eyes glaze and they look for the drinks tray.

Something in the drift of my conversation bothers them.

So, who am I? Come on: ask me, etc.

In scary airports, in concourses over-filled,

I am detached in serious observation.

As a passenger, I become un-tethered when

I get lost in clouds: at home with my own quiet company.

Herald Tribune or USA Today. Sauvignon Blanc or oaky Chardonnay.

Asleep for the movie. Awake for the dawn

dancing on England and hedgerows

embossed on a carpet of green. I descend and

forgive me I mean to get lost in crowds.

Yes, I quite love the Tull albums from the '80s and '90s.

Jethro Tull may have taken a strange turn during that period, but please don't refer to any of their work as "drivel". A lot of Tull fans have respect for their entire body of work.

@themountainviewguy Yes....I agree....everything after Minstrel in the Gallery falls mostly into the drivel category.

Well thanks anyway! His solo music is a little hard to get used to, but its actually really good. Its just more on the acoustic side.

I can't say that I'm keen on this...but NOTHING like my ELP dislike. Put it this way, if I was sat in your hoose and you were playing it, I could put up with it no bother. 5 ***** anyway !
