Eye in the sky / 1975 年,錄音工程師兼製作人的 Alan Parsons 和同事 Eric Woolfson組成Alan Parsons Project合唱團。負責詞曲的兩人不盲目追隨流行，而選擇走知性路線，每張專輯都有一個嚴肅的探討。
1982年破百萬張的白金專輯" Eye in the sky "裡有著一首同名單曲" Eye in the sky 天空之眼 "，此曲其實並非情歌，而是關於喬治歐威爾的科幻名著一九八四，書中的未來人們活在一個充滿監視攝影機的世界，一舉一動都受到嚴密監控。不管你是不是新世代，這首歌的前奏一出，相信多數人都不會感到陌生。當我在安德森的音樂倉庫聽到他再度提起此曲時，忽然很想念那個一切都簡單很多的八零年代。
以下是歌詞，最後一段送給不想活在謊言中的人們
Don't think sorry is easily said
Don't try turning tables instead
You've taken lots of chances before
But I ain't gonna give any more
Don't ask me, that's how it goes
'Cause part of me knows what you're thinking
Don't say words you're gonna regret
Don't let the fire rush to your head
I've heard the accusation before
And I ain't gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I'm the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more
To know that I can read your mind
I can read your mind……
Don't leave false illusions behind
Don't cry 'cause I ain't changing my mind
So find another fool like before
'Cause I ain't gonna live anymore
Believing some of the lies
While all of the signs are deceiving
