I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.

WHAT DOES STARLESS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Starless

"Starless" is a piece by British progressive rock band King Crimson. It is the final track on the Red album, released in 1974, after which the group disbanded; thus it may be considered the culmination of that phase of King Crimson's existence. It is also considered to be one of the best songs if not the best song in the band's output not just from that era but in general too. The original lyrics and melody for "Starless" were written by John Wetton. He intended the song to be the title track of the group's previous album Starless and Bible Black. Robert Fripp and Bill Bruford initially disliked the song and declined to record it for that album. Instead the group chose an instrumental improvisation as the title track. However, "Starless" was later revived, its lyrics altered and a long instrumental section added to it, and performed live between March and June 1974. For the Red recording sessions, the lyrics were again altered. The haunting introductory theme, originally played by David Cross, was taken over by the guitar, with Fripp making minor alterations to the melody.
