Sirius / Eye In The Sky - ALAN PARSONS PROJECT

"Eye In The Sky" is a pop-rock song by British rock band the Alan Parsons Project, released as a single from their sixth studio album, Eye in the Sky (1982), in May 1982.

It entered the US Billboard charts on 3 July and hit No. 3 in October 1982, No. 1 in both Canada and Spain, and No. 6 in New Zealand, becoming their most successful release. The instrumental piece entitled "Sirius" segues into "Eye in the Sky" on the original recording.

On the original recording, the 1:54 minute instrumental piece entitled "Sirius" immediately precedes, and segues into, "Eye in the Sky". On the single release, "Eye in the Sky" appears on its own, with "Sirius" edited out; that was the version usually played on pop radio at the time.

However, album-oriented rock and classic rock stations now almost always include the "Sirius" intro. Current live performances of the band now includes Sirius as the intro for the song Eye In The Sky.
