They're locking us up today and throwing away the key.........

 .........I wonder who it'll be tomorrow, you or me. We're all normal when we want our freedom. All a-God's chillun' gotta have their freedom!
"Forever Changes" is a perfect album in many ways and often a gateway album to the more unusual ,obscure stuff from the time. With not a single bad song, I understand why. "The Red Telephone" by Love, being my personal long-time favourite from the album,  provides a perfect harmonial contradiction between the gently orchestrated and softly sung melody, and the more sinister nature of the lyrics; "Sitting on a hillside, Watching all the people die". Arthur Lee had a psychotically psychedelic mind; of that I am sure.
