about

This song has quite a history. Originally written as ‘For Angel’ by me and Aidan Halloran for Pray TV in 1991. Then covered by All India Radio with reworked lyrics and vocals by Chloe Hall. Then remixed and reworked by Don Meers. Then referenced by me and Steve Kilbey. Then reworked yet again by Don Meers. Now, after 30 years, I’m reworking the rework of the remix of the rework of the original!

I really wanted a sound effect like the opening of ‘The Great Dominions’ by The Teardrop Explodes, but had to settle for a ‘clip-clop’ sound in the second half of the song.

Vocals by Yin. Strings arranged and played by Severn Duo (Tom McCluskey on cello and Jess Townsend on violin)

lyrics

eyes ahead
don't turn around

I couldn't walk away
from you

Wow. After I heard “You Are Everything”, I agreed with Steve that there was no way you could possibly top that masterpiece. I don't think you did, but with this album, I'd say you equalled it. David-Olivier
