After this song was mentioned in an article about me in Pituitary Life magazine, I thought I would put it up here - particularly since the article also gave my website link.
This is the first track to be remastered - a process that will eventually encompass the 9 (currently) unavailable albums.
I don't like my 28 year old voice on this and like to think I would do it better now - but, it is what it is!
It was recorded on a Tascam 688 Cassette 8 track for my debut album Hey Freud!
Lyrics
HOTLINE
(Hey Freud!)
I’m talking in my sleep, I’m wondering how to keep these feelings down
I’m staring at the light, I’m wondering should I fight or let this thing flow over me?
It feels like a hotline to the divine
And I don’t really think I’ve got time…
To go walking into walls, I’m hearing spirits call me in the night
They don’t use my name, all the same I feel responsibility is mine
And it feels like a hotline to the divine
But do I feel like taking the time…
To try to work it out, let’s see if I can lose this sense of doubt
I try to fit it in to see if I begin to understand
I’m remembering a dream, at leat that’s how it seems to me today
It flashes then it goes, I guess it only shows there’s something deep within us all
That feels like a hotline to the divine
