When I was very little, my brother Bill told me of a nightmare he’d had, in which monsters flew up out of a crevice that was in a cabinet in our dining room, sang a one line song to him, then attacked him. The song remained with us as the years went on, and when I recorded my version of “Bugada” (track eight, above) for him in 2002, I also put together this little arrangement of his nightmare. I stretched out the one line song into a full 40 seconds or so of orchestral arrangement, leading into the brief song. I then asked my daughters and my friend Paul to sing the song along with me. Bill was quite pleased. Perhaps someone can make a 52-second horror movie out of this.
