The Alan Parsons Project
The Alan Parsons Project were a British rock band active between 1975 and 1990, whose core membership consisted of producer, audio engineer, musician and composer Alan Parsons and singer, songwriter and pianist Eric Woolfson. They were accompanied by varying session musicians and some relatively consistent session players such as guitarist Ian Bairnson, arranger Andrew Powell, bassist and vocalist David Paton, drummer Stuart Elliott, and vocalists Lenny Zakatek and Chris Rainbow. Parsons and Woolfson shared writing credits on almost all of the Project's songs, with Parsons producing or co-producing all of the band's recordings.
The Alan Parsons Project released eleven studio albums in its 15-year career, the most successful being «I Robot» (1977) and «Eye in the Sky» (1982). Many of their albums are conceptual in nature and focus on science fiction, supernatural, psychological, literary and sociological themes. Among the group's most popular songs are "I Wouldn't Want to Be Like You", "Games People Play", "Time", "Sirius"/"Eye in the Sky" and "Don't Answer Me".

Don't think sorry's easily said. Не думай, что просить прощения так просто Don't try turning tables instead. И не пытайся вместо этого крушить мебель You've taken lots of chances before Тебе и раньше давалось много возможностей But I ain't gonna give anymore Но больше я давать не собираюсь Don't ask me И даже не проси That's how it goes Вот так оно и работает 'Cause part of me knows what you're thinking... Ведь есть что-то во мне, которое знает о чём ты думаешь

Where do we go from here И куда же нам теперь податься, Now that all of the children are growin' up? Тепеть, когда наши дети становятся взрослыми? And how do we spend our lives И на что потратить свои жизни, If there's no one to lend us a hand? Если никто не собирается протянуть нам руку помощи?
