Don't Be Late by
Saga, a conversation in musical form between alien and human from the Silent Knight album . This is an important band in area of "alien encounters" because they don't just write a single "one off" song about the subject of alien abductions and close encounters with aliens... Saga writes entire albums on the subject of alien abductions and close encounters in a similar way as today's newer
Edison's Children project starring
Neil Armstrong's son which continuously write entire double concept albums about close encounters with aliens and alien abductions and the supernatural. Rock bands like
Saga and
Edison's Children with their
Pink Floyd like qualities should be noted in particular above other bands in this category for their continued concentration of UFO experiences, alien abductions and extra-terrestrial communication over multiple songs & albums.

Arthur C. Clarke's novel Childhood's End. Pink Floyd again paid tribute to Clarke with a song titled "Childhood's End", which was featured on the soundtrack of the Barbet Schroeder film La Valee (1972).
