It's Really Happening

from The Waterworks (demo) by Pete Davis

/

about

This is the second iteration ('phase,' as I'm calling it) of this recording, which, unlike other re-recordings, is completely different from the original. The original was just an acoustic guitar hastily thrown together ten minutes before recording the song with some awful lyrics, and the actual quality of the recording and performances were just terrible. I redid it keeping only the first line of lyrics to convey the meaning of the song, and left the rest instrumental. It consists primarily of overlayed pizzicato cellos, which borrow melodies from the original. To be quite honest, I'm still not happy with how this came out, and I might again completely revamp it for phase III recordings.

lyrics

Listen my dear, isn't that the most beautiful thing that you've ever heard?

The sound of your voice just now, it was so peculiar.
