88/100 Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft

Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft is a song by Canadian rock band Klaatu, originally released in 1976 on their first album 3:47 EST. The song was played to open night-time transmission of the pirate radio station Radio Caroline back in the UK, that broadcast from 1964 until it eventually went off air in the 90's.

Anyway to any extraterrestrial beings out there reading and listening to this don't believe that lyric line "We are your friends" I imagine most of us would be your friends but then there's plenty who wouldn't be. Just saying.

 

The sign on the fence reads on the fence says "You Are Under Surveillance". Haha that amused me.
