Dark Company: Decide to Ride (alpha mix)

Decide to Ride, by Dark Company. From CD 1, 'SNAFU', of the triple CD album 'A for Acronym'. DECIDE TO RIDE Reaction to refraction, a bent-stick water view Administer situations to part of Heaven's crew Stand smartly dressed against the rail Uniforms with matching sails Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Inspected kinetics moving minds around Archetypal archetypes esoteric sounds Take a stand now on the stairs Under signs saying "On The Air!" Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Checkerboard collectors, gamers of rare delights Whale bone dice believers gifted with second sight Braided caps placed there just so Each one ready to stay or go Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Now should we go along Should we go along with you Should we go along Should we go along Should we go along Should we go along Lyrics by P.

Cover Art: “Thing 2” by Peter Greatorex See: https://www.wudrecords.co.uk/artists/dark-company/original-artwork-by-peter-greatorex/original-artwork-by-peter-greatorex-gallery-5/ Copyright ℗ 2024 Wud Records. Performers: ‘Speedy’ Pete Greatorex – vocals Zakk Black – guitar Josh Reynes – piano, synths, trumpets Maxx Damage – bass Sven Stiglund – drums Fun Facts: * This is a song that Pete never sang a proper studio version of and his vocals were lifted from the very rough demo and cleaned up a bit. * Well, quite a lot actually. :) * The VST plugins didn't make the right kind of piano sound somehow so this is from the TG33. * The guitar part is played on the Stratocaster. * The trumpets come from the Akai S900 and a VST plugin called DSK Brass. * There is an argument between the bass, which plays a C, and the piano and guitar, which play a C#, which has a wonderful emotive quality but which ceases to work when anything else is present.
