about

Rome is Burning (Acoustic version recorded live at WesFest 1999 in New York)

lyrics

High upon a hill
Looking over the ruins burning still
Where was I for all of this.
Where was I for all of this.

You never looked so bad she said
I didn't know I could do all this she said
I didn't know all this could burn with just a kiss
Burn with just a kiss
I didn't know

You didn't notice Rome was burning
You didn't notice you had the flame still in your hands
Why didn't you notice Rome was burning

As the passion filled your eyes
You couldn't see to find the home you'd left behind
Like all the lovers that live blind
Lovers that live blind
No you couldn't see

You didn't notice Rome was burning
You didn't notice you had the flame still in your hands
Why didn't you notice Rome was burning

I was at this show! It's been one of my favorite shows ever and one of my first real club experiences. Both Porcupine Tree and Opeth rocked. Both bands were on fire that night and they rocked well into the middle of the night. It's even cooler now, knowing that I'm going to be part of an official Porcupine Tree vinyl release! g-unit1111

Steve Rothery band Live in Plovdiv
by Steve Rothery

supported by 7 fans who also own “WesFest 1999 (Live, Download only)”

The first official outing of the "what would be" Steve Rothery Band. Riccardo Romano was missing with his keyboard wizardry and no singer at all (later Martin Jakubsky of Stillmarillion). Marillion's catalogue was represented by excerpts of instrumental sections where Steve had his solo spot. This is a milestone in the forming of a great band that later became the spokesman of early Marillion era and of course of Steve's solo material. If you want to hear how it all started you have to get this Alessandro Carmassi
