I know the guestbook is pretty much quiet.

JW once mentioned that Judas was about a certain person and he would mention it sometime down the line.   Did he ever reveal?

He was referring referring to Jodie Foster in that song.

I thought Alibis on Phoenix was about Jodie Foster, unless this was also about her.

You're right. I crossed the songs in my head the other day.

I believe it was some record executive from EMI during the release of the Phoenix album in 2008. I recall John making reference to something along those lines. Did anyone ever get the Laitin translation at the end of Valkyrie?

What was John's connection to Jodi Foster?

I don't know if anyone checks the board that was closer to the muse.   When Phoenix came out John did put out notes about each song.

What I do remember was Alibis was an unfinished song from the Asia sessions in the 1980's.   I don't recall if there was an explicit relationship.
