The Hotelier - Goodness (May 27, 2016) Album • Page 4

I'm watching it idec.

 

yeah i lost. im watching it. no regrets.

 

omg, i'm so glad i just got home again
it'd be all the better if i had lyrics!!!

 

fuckin hell, the chorus of whatever song they're playing right now sounds so good

edit: i think it was Goodness Pt 2
i'm trying to make out what Ben & Chris(?) were yelling in the background vox of it;
"(Liiiiight snoooow)
Make me feel alii-iiive! Make me feel alive!"

 

That was Soft Animal I think.

 

relistening to this now and Goodness 2 sounds super weird for the first half.

 

so is Goodness 2 the one with the off sounding piano at the beginning?

 

It's the one that has the same melody as Goodness 1.

 

Piano Player sounds like a cool track.

 

downloaded the periscope stream, downloading the fb video right now

 

oh ok. i was just skimming through the periscope vid so i didnt hear it. Ill sit down later and give it full attention.

so im guessing the song i heard with the sharp piano chords at the beginning was "Piano Player" then

 

I'm gonna listen through this one last time and then wait. If possible this has me even more excited, ha.

 

Piano Player doesn't have piano at the beginning either I don't think.

 

Hahahaha I just found my avatar

 

i only watched a lil bit of the stream before it cut out. i don't know if i wanna go back and watch the full vid. i want my first time listening to the record to be the recorded quality version or whatever

 

downloading the FB video fuck it

 

I think the final section of this album is going to have to really bring it to beat the middle section.

 

i feel bad that i don't know how to do that...

 

right click the video, save as

 

it isn't giving me a "save video" option!

 

i can send it to you if you want, just gimme a few hours

 

that'd be really sweet, thanks ahead of time! (i'll be leaving for work in a couple hours anyway)

 

Lyrics to "Soft Animal" in case anyone's interested:

"We were cloaked in the awning of night or early morning.
Through the headboard there's a flicker of light
and light warning.
Sophie's on the bunk overhead reading Mary Oliver
while I lay still in my bed.
That's when I see you there.
Fawn doe, light snow.
Make me feel alive,
make me believe that all my selves align.
Fawn, doe, light snow.
Spots on brown of white
make me believe that it is all alright.
Your soft face pressed to the wilt,
first spring sunrise
standing low on quivering stilts.
In attempting to keep you to stay
I am raising no alarm.
It is just us two alone.
Then I feel a sigh of wind, your raising eyes
a rolling fog that lets you hide
and I can hear the rustling as you go.
Oh, go slow.
Fawn, doe, light snow.
Make me feel alive.
Make me believe that I don't have to die.
Fawn, doe, light snow.
Spots on brown of white
make me believe that there's a God sometimes.
The ring around a mothers heart
grows saccharine then falls apart
and I can hear the rustling as you go.
You camouflaged or clearly seen
and nameless in the in-between
and I can hear the rustling as you go.
The firing of rifles off
the echo hits you hard enough
and I can hear the rustling as you go.
A soft and skittish self inside
shines golden, opal, chrysolite
and I can feel the rustling as you go.
Oh, go slow.
A mob a voices harmonize
and tell me that your not alive
but I can feel the rustling as you go."

 

did you transcribe those or did you find the bandcamp cache? haha

they've been doing a v v poor job of keeping their lyrics under wraps, and i'm not just talking about their bandcamp :/

 

Haha I found the bandcamp cache by pure chance while looking for a video of the song.

Honestly, I thought about spoiler tagging it because of all the hype and anticipation for the album. Can you spoiler tag on here yet? Yep!
