Boy have I got news for you!
My time to shine.
Bob Dylan - Hurricane (which actually became a movie starring Denzel Washington in 1999).
That song is amazing!
American Pie - Don McLean
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
That damned albatross!
different genre but related is “the mariner’s revenge song”
Tweeter and the Monkeyman
Sometimes I don’t think about nothing but the monkey man
100%. I always thought I was alone in thinking it.
I always imagine All Along the Watchtower as a 1980’s fantasy movie along the lines of Red Sonya or The Beastmaster.

I just don’t know, man.
I think their songs would make for interesting comics, though!
Tom Petty, running down a dream.
Several rush songs. 2112, Hemispheres, cygnus x-1
Nice try, Hollywood
Drat! You got me!
The Mariner’s Revenge by The Decemberists
That’s a good one
Dream Theater - Metropolis.
Alternatively, Metropolis pt II - Scenes from a Memory, if you find an ambitious producer.Honestly Scenes from a Memory would make a great movie, and now I have to go listen to it again
Tool-Lost keys/Rosetta stoned. Maybe the stoner really did see something out in the desert.
Alrighty then… picture this if you will
Tarkus. Giant monsters battling is always fun.
- Yours Truly, 2095 - Electric Light Orchestra
- Underneath the Radar - Underworld
- Silent Running - Mike and the Mechanics
I’d love to see a movie based on Silent Running. But I’m afraid it’s shaping out to be a documentary…
(The existing movie of the same name has nothing in common with the song, but it’s worth watching anyway.)
Yes, Wikipedia says:
Rutherford named the song after the film Silent Running “because I remembered that film so well, and our song had a spacey feel to it.”
