The genesis was the concept of writing a song with a continuous flow of rapid-fire lyrics, so I’m glad I ditched that idea. Thanks for nothing, brain. I suppose the subject is the passage of time, and it’s prob’ly a love song to boot.
The wonderful soulful vocal is courtesy of Martin Radford, who appears elsewhere. The drums are by the brilliant Steve “Mouse” Turner – and I’ll tell you the whole history about us two anon. Tech nerds may like to know that the guitar intro part uses one patch – no other instruments.
Heavenly backing vocals are by Janice Anderson. Here’s how old I am: I invited Janice round to do the backing vocals, only to find that when I loaded up the track, she had already recorded them.
Bet that never happens to Trevor Horn. He probably has a PA to take notes. So I immediately pretended I knew that, and quickly got her to sing on something else. LOL, as they say.
Oh Heaven
Oh Heaven Lyrics
Lyrics are the words that make up a song, typically organized into verses and choruses, and sometimes written by a dedicated lyricist. They serve as the semantic, storytelling component of music, expressing personal thoughts, emotions, or narratives. Lyrics can include rhyme schemes (e.g., AABB, ABAB) and often utilize sensory details to engage the listener.
