Eye In The Sky

Eye in the Sky was written by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson. The lyrics are often interpreted as a critique of surveillance and the lack of privacy, however, Woolfson explained that it was inspired by the theme of casinos, specifically the security cameras (the eye in the sky) used to monitor players actions. The album Eye in the Sky, released in 1982 by The Alan Parsons Project, marked the peak of the bands success.
