“The Archive” tells the story of a hidden trove of secrets, sealed files kept in the shadows by those in power. As the narrator begins to uncover these buried truths, each verse reveals names, deals, and betrayals that were never meant to surface. The song becomes a journey into the heart of corruption, where silence has been bought and memory erased. But the archive is not static, it breathes, it remembers, and it demands to be heard. The lyrics trace the moral cost of concealment and the danger of knowing too much, asking who holds the truth when the truth itself is dangerous. It’s a song of revelation, reckoning, and the slow burn of justice emerging from the dark.

The Archive

Take Me to the Moon

It makes you crazy
It makes you sad
When you discover
That what you had
Might have gone on
If you had known
You could have worked
Through it
You could have grown
But it was only
After the fact
That I found out
Where things were at
We were talking
On the phone
I had moved away
I wish I had known
She said her mother
Had privately said
He’s going to leave you
All he wants is your bed
How long ago
Was that said
I had to ask
Knowing full well
It might as well
Have smashed
What we had
Early on or just
As things had begun
But she wouldn’t say
That’s when I knew
I was ready to say
You do realize
What that means
Whatever we might have had
She ruined our dreams
Early on

When Something Is Wrong with My Baby (2006 Remaster LP / Single Version)

Jack Thain was a founding member of the Rhodesian band "Lincoln" All Vocals and harmonies sung by J.Thain and backing is a remixed midi file. "Do It Again" is a song composed by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, performed by American rock group Steely Dan, which was released as a single from their 1972 debut album Can't Buy a Thrill. The single version differed from the album version, shortening the intro and outro and omitting the organ solo.

Released in 1972, the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 on November 18, 1972, and reached number 6 on the US charts in 1973, making it Steely Dan's second highest charting single.

On the 1972 release, the song was credited as "Trad" (for traditional), although it was actually written by Becker and Fagen. 

The original version of "Do It Again" is in the key of G minor, with Fagen on lead vocals. The song uses a large amount of syncopation in the vocal melody.

The tune features an electric sitar solo by Denny Dias. The "plastic organ" solo by Donald Fagen was performed on a Yamaha YC-30 with a sliding pitch-bending control.

Do It Again

And Introducing, on backup vocals, it’s Mary Wilson! Wilson achieved fame and fortune as one third of Motown powerhouses The Supremes — but the schemings of lead singer Diana Ross shattered Mary’s confidence as the group’s star rose through the 60s. We’re learning about her fulfilled dreams, her dashed hopes, and her long road toward self-actualization in her memoir Dreamgirl: My Life as a Supreme.
