sometimes you just gotta take the scenic route to nirvana to realize that you were already there

At the press meeting when Breakfast In America was presented, Roger Hodgson explained that this song is about a guy who thinks he's really cool ("So you think you're a Romeo playing a part in a picture-show"), but it seems that he's the only one who thinks that. This implies that our hero avoids getting home because when he's on the road he has a few more moments of being alone with his dreams, and in his dreams he's a superstar. http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=6481

Pop progressive rock, what a concept?!! Oh, and I agree with those who say you should turn up the volume. The sound is so crystalline and clear. The live versions on the "Paris Live" album sound equally good and deserve being turned up, too. The bass is particularly full and round for the live versions. Turn on your subwoofers and enjoy.

This whole album is a tragedy - I mean, the songs are just so damn sad. They're all about life slipping away and the hopelessness of growing up and society coming down on you. It's also what makes this album beautiful. [2] <--- THIS
