about

The Clarinet theme in this track was inspired by the recurring theme from the film, 'The Ninth Gate', starring Johnny Depp, Frank Langella, Lena Olin, and Emmanuelle Seigner.

lyrics

I thought I was going to wake up dead... so I had to think of something to do.

I suppose it was just one of those things really.
I thought I was going to wake up dead.
I suppose it was just one of those things really...
So I had to think of something to do.
So I had to think of something to do.

Maybe I could go into town?
Perhaps I could see someone or meet someone?

I thought I was going to have a conversation with him.
All I could say was...
He didn't say anything...
So I had to think of something to do.
I could try somewhere else, I suppose.

I thought I was going to wake up dead.
I thought I was going to have a conversation with him.
All I should say was...
he didn't say anything...
So I had to think of something to do.
I suppose it was just one of those things really.
A coffee shop or something...
All I could say was...
he didn't say anything.
I thought I was going to have a conversation with him...
So I had to think of something to do.
I just couldn't get it out of my head.

But I got to the coffee.

I thought I was going to wake up dead.
So I had to think of something to do.
But he didn't seem that talkative.

I thought I was going to wake up dead.
So I had to think of something to do.
And a conversation seemed an obvious choice.
I suppose it was just one of those things really.
I thought I was going to wake up dead.
I thought I was going to have a conversation with him.
All I could say was...
He didn't say anything.

Bugger then.

about

Rich'd Gentle / Musical Sketchbook Wakefield, UK

Rich'd Gentle composes with physical instruments in preference to using computer DAWs.

"A freshness of quality is produced when working mechanically and where timing sometimes goes out of synch – particularly in a basic set-up with a mix of digital and analogue equipment. But this adds to the discovery and pleasure of creativity. It also makes the mind work in unique ways... and I like that."
