I don't know if Alan Parsons Project is one of my favorite artists; I haven't heard enough of their stuff. And this video is not of them performing...but it is a cool video utilizing one of their songs:

The next-to-last picture gave me chills and tears....



Edgar Allan Poe Publishes "The Raven" (1845)
"The Raven," like Poe's other works, conveys the dreamlike and often macabre forces that pervaded the author's sensibility. Poe wrote the poem while his moribund wife was suffering from tuberculosis, and it became an instant sensation when it appeared in the Evening Mirror January 29, 1845. In the poem, the narrator, who is mourning the death of his love, Lenore, is mysteriously visited by a talking raven and asks the bird a series of questions.
