Among the Living is the third studio album by American thrash metal band, Anthrax. It was released in March 1987 by Megaforce Worldwide/Island, and was certified gold by the RIAA on July 31, 1990. The BBC has described the album as "arguably their big breakthrough", and "often cited by fans as their favorite Anthrax album".
Among the Living was produced by Anthrax and Eddie Kramer. It includes the singles, "I Am the Law" and "Indians". The video for "Indians" received substantial rotation on MTV.
The cover of Among the Living depicts the character Rev. Henry Kane, antagonist from the film Poltergeist II: The Other Side. It has been said to depict the character Randall Flagg, the subject of the album's title track, the antagonist from the Stephen King novel The Stand, but drummer Charlie Benante denies this, claiming "I wasn't thinking about The Stand when I had the idea" for the cover.
"I Am the Law" is a tribute to comic book hero Judge Dredd. Numerous characters, settings and story elements from Dredd's fictional universe are referenced in the song's lyrics. "Efilnikufesin (N.F.L.)" ("nise fukin life" spelled backwards) is about comedian John Belushi's drug addiction and death. "Indians" and the mosh pit anthem "Caught in a Mosh" are still considered Anthrax classics today. "A Skeleton in the Closet" is inspired by the Stephen King novella "Apt Pupil".
Among the Living is a 1941 film noir directed by Stuart Heisler, and starring Albert Dekker, Susan Hayward, Harry Carey and Frances Farmer. The film is a mix of social drama, horror film, and suspense thriller.
Albert Dekker plays twins, John and Paul. Paul was supposed to have died when he was 10 years old, but actually went insane and was shut up in a secret room in his parents' mansion.
Time Out Paris called it "a gripping piece of Southern Gothic". Ted Shen of the Chicago Reader wrote, "The cinematography is gloomy and noirish but the psychology is simplistic".
The Living is American author Annie Dillard's first novel, a historical fiction account of European settlers and a group of Lummi natives in late 19th century Washington published in 1992. The main action of the book takes place in the Puget Sound settlements of Whatcom, Old Bellingham, Sehome, and Fairhaven, which would later merge to form the city of Bellingham, Washington.
As research for the novel, Dillard lived for five years in the Bellingham area, much of that time in 19th century era accommodations.

Living was a Canadian informational television series which aired on CBC Television from 1954 to 1955.
Elaine Grand of Tabloid hosted this series on topics geared towards women such as child rearing, gardening and homemaking. Various subjects were covered by interviews with experts such as cooking with Eristella Langdon, crafts with Peter Whittall (who later hosted Mr. Fixit), design with John Hall, fashion with Iona Monahan, family medical topics with physician S.R. Laycock and gardening with Lois Lister. The show also covered more serious topics such as senior citizens concerns, adoption and drinking water fluoridation.
This half-hour series was broadcast at 7:30 p.m. on various selected weeknights from 3 May 1954 until 1 July 1955. The closure of Living coincided with Grand's departure for television projects in the United Kingdom such as Lucky Dip and Sharp at Four.
It's a Mystery was a networked Children's ITV programme which ran for five series from 1996–2002. It was produced by The Media Merchants Television Company Ltd and Meridian Broadcasting Ltd. In Series five, the show was retitled as Mystery.
It was a programme that educated children by challenging them to solve a mystery. Usually this would involve people telling stories of mysterious occurrences that have happened to them, such as a Man in a Van driving up to a roundabout and seeing his exact duplicate across the roundabout, driving the same vehicle. Other times, the presenter would show unexplained phenomena such as ghosts in the Tower of London or the Loch Ness Monster. The presenter would then offer up possible explanations as to what might have been behind the mystery or if there is even an explanation to give. After each story, it would be given a solved or unsolved designation. At the end of each episode, a riddle would be asked for the audience to solve until the next episode (where the answer would be given).
Some walls are made of stone
sometimes we build our own
some walls stand for years
and some wash away with tears
Some walls are lined with gold where
some hearts stay safe and cold
some walls are made from doubt
holding in and keeping out
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
Some walls are built on pride
some keep the child inside
some walls are built in fear that
love let go will disappear
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
How will you ever know what might be found
until you let the walls come tumbling down
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
If there's any hope for love at all...
some walls must fall
