This will be quite the undertaking, but it is time for a Song of the Day thread on Steven Wilson, featuring songs from his solo career, Porcupine Tree, Blackfield, No-Man, Storm Corrosion, etc. Assuming interest in this thread is enough to keep it going, this could go for a while considering how many songs he has.
As with my past Song of the Day threads, I will feature a song every day (although I am sure I will miss a day here and a day there) that we can discuss.
And like in the past, I ask that you let me feature the songs instead of someone jumping in with their own. If you are wanting to talk about a song, feel free to PM me and I will likely work it in shortly thereafter.
Away we go...
Radioactive Toy (Porcupine Tree)
It only makes sense to kick this off with a song from the first Porcupine Tree album, and to feature the one that is easily the most popular one. This song has endured pretty well over the years, and showed that even at the very start, Wilson knew how to write a great song and play some killer guitar. It very much has that kind of psychedelic, Floyd thing going on, while still having enough originality to sound unique. A great song from an interesting first album.
