    Saw them in the 70s and was/am an avid fan of Ian Andeson! The lyric is "I may make you feel but I can't make you think" from Thick as a Brick. However, my signature is actually a play on the saying "you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink."

    Evan, I know the lyric well, and it's ALSO a play on the "lead a horse to water" adage. Never saw them live but my freshman roomie and I played Thick, Aqualung and "Dark Side" (Floyd) pretty much constantly--that was 1973/74.

    Them were crazy days!..not that I miss them much, other than being a lot thinner, but a lot more broke! (College meant a state school with NY state scholarship to help).
