SUBMARINE
When will it be time
to document
- do it now!
this submarine behaviour
- do it now!
when time?
to return
- do it now!
- do it now!
shake us out of the heavy deep sleep
- shake us now!
- do it now!
- do it now!
shake us out of the heavy deep sleep
- do it now!
SONG INFO
Performed by Bjork and Robert Wyatt
Programming: Valgeir Sigurdsson
"He lives in Louth, and he has equiptment in his bedroom where he records himsel
f and his albums. We brought a G4 and Pro Tools and recorded it in like one afte
rnoon. He's such an extraordinary singer. Before he left, he insisted to give us
a scale of his voice, where he sings all the tones - and he has the most amazin
g range, like 5 or 6 octaves. What's really interesting about his range is that
each octave is of a totally different character. We actually ended up using that
later for 'Oceania', we used what he calls the "Wyattron". Maybe this isn't a s
ecret, but when I was pregnant and breastfeeding - what is great is that your na
ture tells all your cells to go on vacation now that the baby is the most import
ant thing. It's a very humbling and gorgeous thing and a very healthy experience
. But slowly after 6 months or so, the baby wouldn't mind being without you for
an hour a day, a couple of month later two hours, and meet other kids and have r
elationships with other people than you. And mothers kinda have a hard time to l
et go too. It's an interesting stretch. And with my "submarine behaviour" ...the
part of me that writes songs had gone dormant, and this song says it's time to
wake it up and say "hello! wake up" - it's been hibernating, so it's a little bi
t of an alarm call." (Bjork, XFM 25aug04)
