What is the short spacey one on this? "Far as I am from you" or something? Totally haunting, very evocative of loneliness

Love that, like from a parallel universe.

Finally found a copy of this in the wild last weekend -- I had read about it before, but I didn't expect that I'd love it so much.
I think this record has finally given me a proper appreciation for Fripp. He takes a fairly meat-and-potatoes rock song like "Survive" and just drizzles these sublime harmonics all over it, and it totally elevates the material.
It's too bad it didn't work out -- I'm now convinced that Hall & Fripp would've been way more interesting than Hall & Oates, but apparently RCA just wasn't havin it.
