FAREWELL..

On the theme of this song
Marcel Proust used to say that we should not explain a work of art, that it is a bit like giving the recipe for a dish that we offer to taste. I am generally more of this opinion but for this piece I will depart from the rule for several reasons: its length its theme its difficult and slow creation.
We often go through less inspired times sometimes even it's a great desert of ideas that seems to extend as far as the eye can see. That’s a bit of what I’ve been through for the past two years, and probably many of us. And then this summer with Aline during our vacation in the city of Nantes we visited an incredible exhibition on hypnosis and in particular the breathtaking installation by artist Tony Oursler (https://tonyoursler.com/state_nonstate- hypnosis) which was the trigger. For some time now, I had in mind the idea of ​​a series of songs around the theme of sleep and dreams (the diva in the Watchmaker Dream was the first of the series) hypnosis then became the central theme. of this second song which took the form of a suite in 7 moments.
Hysteria is a neurosis which is characterized by real physical distress and suffering which are symptoms of conflicts and psychological trauma. At the end of the nineteenth century many famous doctors like Charcot and Freud began to regard hysteria as a disease and try to treat it with hypnosis. (Freud will abandon this technique later, preferring analysis by speaking alone)
The song tells the story of a session like this in its fanciful way.



the music

I also tried to give the mix a very analog color. We worked as much as possible the old-fashioned way with real instruments plugged into tube amps, emulations of old analog synths, and a tube mic for vocals in a tube eq too, and especially trying to play them. taken live. Finally, I used emulations of mythical consoles from the seventies a lot.

Construction
The piece is conceived as a series of "pictures"  alternating of instrumentals and parts sung by Aline. All these parts were recorded in order one after the other in a single session.

 The illustration
Drawn by Aline the beginning of a series of drawings that we will integrate into a video that may see the light of day in some time

Al’z (https://soundcloud.com/al-z-z-z)
Thank you very much to Al who, not content to deliver us one of his magnificent solos of which he has the secret to close the song, lent me his ears to advise me on this mix.
Ghost in me part one
Something in itself that repeats endlessly
Two bass
A wooden metronome the beating of a heart the ticking of a clock
1 33 Mesmerise me

Hypnosis as a game of seduction ...
 
mesmerise me
hypnotize me
set my mind free
 from my bloody body

Were you a kind of Freud, or doctor Charcot?
In your eyes I saw, a strange dark glow ...

mesmerise me
hypnotize me
set my mind free
 from my bloody body

I was the kind of girl you wanted on the couch
you were to heal my soul, you said you….

501 now you’re sleeping
Not easy with this drummer ^^
5.47 tell me where it hurts
Symptoms, resistance  ...
7.06 Painful soul, body complaint
Body and mind, the voice is the physical expression of the soul
Only one take for Aline and it was in the box….
10 49 Open that door
Open a door to find behind the symptoms ...
11.58 Ghosts in me part 2
... the ghosts of childhood
 Small intrusion into the trip hop
Solo guitar: Al’z
With a helping hand from our old "partner in crime" Al who plays the final solo

It's written on my aching body,
like a long and meaningless story.
I search in the buried memories
The key that could set me free.

Ghosts in me, ghosts of my childhood
haunt my endless sleepless nights.
Ghosts in me, ghosts from my cloudy mood
chase the day, darken the lights.

I'm lost in the land of no reason,
I am the inmate, I am the prison.
I want your help to find my way,
lead my soul to the light day.

The Session (with Al'z )

I do not want more
Fake friendships
What you give me
No longer funny

Rich solitude
I don't want your kisses
Only the truth
Lying eyes

Cotton rich
Hugs trash
Love scams
Fake hearts

Of the tongue
Of the soul
From the bottom
Give Your Heart
From the shadows
What's in you

Of the life
What has he given me
I don't want your farce anymore
I sweat it forever
And for you

Lyrics:
Brought you in my life 
I thought we would shine 
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Darkness in your highs 
I could’ve cleared your skies
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Wanted to see the good in you 
But I could barely see what’s true 
Your front’s a hit 
Get lots of clicks 
But it don’t really match who’s inside of it 

Never tried to play no games 
Hope your gain was worth my pain 
It’s kinda funny 
Thought I was lucky 
Now I gotta treat you another way 

Didn’t have to end like this, no 
I let you play but now I know 
Ready to let you go, go 

Brought you in my life 
I thought we would shine 
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Darkness in your highs 
I could’ve cleared your skies
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Brought you in my life 
I thought we would shine 
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Darkness in your highs 
I could’ve cleared your skies
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Used to see you with a halo 
From every angle you glow 
Now I can’t stand to be alone around ya 

Maybe I tried too hard 
To fix your broken parts 
But I know I don’t need you around nah

Didn’t have to end like this, no 
You played your part, put on a show
ready to let you go, go  

Brought you in my life 
I thought we would shine 
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Darkness in your highs 
I could’ve cleared your skies
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

I thought we would shine but all you did was lie 
I could’ve cleaned your skies but all you did was lie 
All you did was lie

Brought you in my life 
I thought we would shine 
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 

Darkness in your highs 
I could’ve cleared your skies
All you did was lie 
All you did was lie 
 
All you did was lie

All You Did Was Lie
