This was written in spring 2001 and recorded that summer. It’s one of my “Kitchen Sink” songs, where I take many of the random ideas that I’ve scribbled down over the previous few months or years, and try to tie them together into lyrics for a song. Some of these were from conversations, others were odd phrases I heard on radio or TV, and others were concepts that came to me out of nowhere. I tied them all together with an exciting, Caribbean-style track and ended with a musical quote from one of my favorite songs of all time.
On her first release for RVNG, Discovery Zone makes lustrous, winking pop music that's equal parts pleasant and mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 9, 2024
