I do believe that Peter's In-The-Skies was been very symptomatic for his state of mind during that time and how he "disappeared" following.
Ok, taking it even further off the road...

...anyone ever notice the similarity of the chord structure between PG's "In The Skies" and Sade's "Smooth Operator" (verses only)?

At a couple of rehearsals in a band I was in about 15 years ago, we attempted a medley of those two tunes....had we worked on it a bit longer (and not broken up), I think we might have pulled it off.
