I was going to hire Meatloaf for the ending but it turns out he will NOT work for pancakes… which is what I had heard.
This is one of the prime examples of (early on) being WAY more ambitious than what my ability allowed. And yes, that’s my Brian Eno impersonation on the backup vocals.
I knew I'd love this one. Nice work.
Thanks very much Kavin, SS, Bethan. The drums... yeah, I needed to exorcise my Peter Gabriel obsession with some crushing, atmospheric percussion at least once.
You're right it is really good. That drum track is a little overwhelming in the mix at first tho. I like the guitars, stream of conciousness lyrics, Lennon-like vocal and the Miles Davis title check.
I must make time to listen to all of your uploads - this is another treasure.
The music alone is work of art, I like the sudden tempo changes too. The song is bizarre and really clever. The last verse is most impressive all round. You don't need Meatloaf oh, and I'll have your dog!
