about

Derek and I singing, humming, clapping and snapping. This song also features me playing piano. This is another one of Derek's really raw songs that turned into an experiment. I think the title is just because Björk also had a song called Hope on her 2007 album Volta, which came out earlier in the same year this was released on SoundClick. Towards the end, this song also contains a lyrical interpolation of Björk's song "I've Seen It All" off of her soundtrack album Selmasongs: Music from the Motion Picture Soundtrack 'Dancer in the Dark', released in 2000. The track artwork is a picture taken by me on my mom's old digital camera of Amber Scanlan and I in Amber's Kia Optima. This song was originally uploaded to my SoundClick music page at www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=541671&content=music&songcount=106&offset=0&currentPage=2 on Sunday 9/30/2007.

lyrics

Reuben Walton: Mmmm…(humming continues throughout for several seconds)
Derek Piotr: It’s gold the little curtain, you will smile, stay enjoy your thang, come and stay a while and I’ll smile a certain way because you know high style, terse always say…
RW: Badabadaba…
DP: The flow through gets the shell, the blast is why I can’t be here, no…and if Jesus sold the mylar to creep we move away from company up still.
RW: Eeeyaw…(repeating on a loop for about 55 seconds)
DP: You know that I all wanted to do was be to have the climb time now, the time now, you know that I wanted to prove the sonic valley is calling my name now. So I get up off the washing machine, cough gouda to you, gouda to you, and drop with a smile and know that I love willow the change oh is it true. You can come and stay a while and whisper each in of, duh, dadu dadu (starts beatboxing and throat singing).
RW: (beatboxing)
DP: (throat singing)
RW: To want more would be greed…(harmonizing and overdubs)
DP: (throat singing and beat boxing)
RW: (chopped up vocals looping and repeating in addition to RW's vocal) Have to be, do… (crescendos to clipping)
