These chords are bonkers! Thats a compliment. Love the dissonance. Great production. Love the lyrics. This is an official good one.

Wow ... interesting rhythmic choice for the vocals ... unexpected but it works!

mmmm ... I love the originality of delivery and super clever  - and yes. sinister - lyrics :)

man, so many facets to this. what a journey!

Creepy, sinister, cryptic and a bit demented maybe?  Shades of Radiohead, David Bowie or David Byrne (Talking Heads), or so I'm told.

This sixth version has lots of changes.  The drums and strings are completely replaced, and the sound of the guitar, piano and vocals changed.  Many vocals are single now rather than doubled.

Please follow, like, comment and repost!  Thanks.

Lyrics:

She keeps her love in a shoe
High upon a shelf
(Sombrero)
And when she's not all there
I go and help myself

She wouldn't recognise me
If I was inside out
(Sombrero)
You shouldn't trust anyone's tea
Just coz they're short and stout

It makes me cry
It makes me try
Not to cry

A workout for your mind
Defence against attack
But I can jump the fence
and run around your track

There's something wrong
I tell myself there's
Nothing wrong

Shhhhh

She confides in me
About the shape of pears
(Sombrero)
But when there's no one home
I sit in all the chairs

She came to stay
She floats away
Stay... away 

She keeps her mind wrapped up
Underneath the bed
(Sombrero)
But no matter how you try
You can't untoast your bread

Lock it in
Block it out
Block it in

(Sombrero)

Clear blue sky, clear blue sky, clear blue sky
Clear blue sky, clear blue sky, clear blue sky
No photo... so it didn't happen
No photo... so it didn't happen
(Sombrero)
It's a river in Egypt... just a river in Egypt
No photo... so it didn't happen
Clear blue sky, clear blue sky, clear blue sky
Clear blue sky, clear blue sky, clear blue sky

The Shape of Pears (version 6 - OLD)

Welcome from Melbourne, Australia!  I recommend going to my playlists, as the track list is a bit of a mess.  I'm mostly focusing now on alternative rock/pop vocal tracks, but have a wide variety of genres.

Influences include Radiohead, The Beatles, Mike Oldfield, Silverchair, Pink Floyd, Grimes, White Stripes, Blur, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Throwing Muses, The Breeders, R.E.M., EMF, Talking Heads, David Byrne, David Bowie, Philip Glass, The Clouds, Beck, Queen, Godley & Creme, They Might Be Giants, Scott Joplin, and somehow the Coen Brothers!
