about

The Tunesmiths challenge for this song was to write either a round, a canon or a fugue. I opted for the first option and set about recording four nylon string guitar parts introduced four bars after each other and four vocal lines which follow the same principal. The different parts have complete stereo separation with two parts of the left and the other two in the right.

The message contained in the lyrics (improvised when recording) is a positive one about the world continuing to go round no matter what happens, thankfulness for being alive and loving one another. As the voices and guitars meld together in the middle of the song making it hard to make out what is being sung, it reflects how these principals can get lost in the clutter and busy-ness of everyday life. The song ends with a solitary guitar and vocal to highlight that the ethic of loving one another should survive despite everything that has gone on before.
