Song of the day

Recommended Posts

A treat for Sonic Holography fans.  If you have your room and speakers set up as probably very few have (egg-crate foam, covered entryways, etc), the part after the bridge (it starts off with a disembodied voice asking  'can you feel the power?' is very satisfying.  During the soliloquy,  his voice will whisper in one ear, run around the room and whisper in your other ear.  Other neat effects as well.

I think of this every time I hear Rush, from the movie Fanboys:

I don't seem to have an icon button to insert a video.

Usually, you just paste the link in, wait a few seconds, and it auto-embeds.

 

That didn't work with your link. Occasionally, I get a message that youtube.be doesn't allow embedding of the video. I didn't get that message when I pasted your link in, so I've no idea why it didn't work.

 

 

It worked that time. I pasted as plain text.

 

Great tune, btw.

Lyrics
Thanks a lot, thanks a whole lot.
Lulu sends her friends
They cover the mouths with one hand
Well, I keep waiting here
Drifting around in a dark land
Envelope unturned
« I push the stamp and stick it »
Chorus:
And I know there's a bell to crack
And I know there's a bell to crack
Well, I hear crosstalk now
Coming through the wire
One voice tells me yes
The other is a liar
Chorus:
And I know there's a bell to crack
I know there's gotta be one more bell to crack
« Click-clack, joint, » this thing is on my sleeve
All this mess around and I gotta clean it up
Okay, Mister Questions, you tell me, when are we gonna leave?
And can you design a heart??a heart that doesn't bleed?
Chorus:
I know there's gotta be one more bell to crack
I know there's gotta be one more bell to crack
See the bell, so I crack it
You just can't find good bells anymore!
Yah! Yah! Sure!
Tom Shane's a friend of mine!
I really like him??he's in the industry!
I know there's gotta be one more bell to crack
I know there's gotta be one more bell to crack

Lyrics:

 

And the angel of the lord came unto me
Snatching me up from my place of slumber
And took me on high and higher still
Until we moved to the spaces betwixt the air itself
And he brought me into a vast farmlands of our own Midwest
And as we descended cries of impending doom rose from the soil
One thousand nay a million voices full of fear
And terror possessed me then
And I begged Angel of the Lord what are these tortured screams?
And the angel said unto me
These are the cries of the carrots, the cries of the carrots!
You see, Reverend Maynard
Tomorrow is harvest day and to them it is the holocaust
And I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat
Like the tears of one million terrified brothers and roared
"Hear me now, I have seen the light!
They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul!
Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers!
Can I get an amen? Can I get a hallelujah? Thank you Jesus

This is necessary
This is necessary
Life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on
This is necessary
This is necessary
Life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life

This is necessary
This is necessary
Life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on
This is necessary
This is necessary
Life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life

This was posted to YouTube about 4 days ago - a friend forwarded, and I've probably listened to it a dozen times.

 

Pushes me into a very different realm, it does.  This song has meaning (for me) and this haunting cover on the most complex percussion instrument just pushed the envelop.  The crescendos last and match the PF original - almost 12 minutes.   YMMV.

With the thread on what's for Christmas Dinner, and, the holiday season, a meaningful song from Paul Kelly, an artist from Down Under seems apropos. 

 

The lyrics have meaning - the title connects it all.  Listen closely.  A little influence from James Taylor, and a complementary guitar.
