Nice song! Is the guitar tab public? I would like to learn it but my music knowledge is low to reverse engineering it :D

this piece will always be one of my favourites by you. simple and oh so poignant, it says so much. i wish it was available on spotify <3

This song is just nostalgia. I listened to this 2 years ago and was nostalgic for something the year before. I listen to this now and am nostalgic for a year ago. I don’t know how you managed to encapsulate it, but this song is just the feeling of nostalgia in music form. Thank you Tom. You’re truly one of the great musical minds of today.

"The sound that kicks off this song, and the record, is the fluttering voice of Shara Worden combined with Chris Thile's tremolo mandolin. In order to create the vocal sound, I recorded Shara singing three short 'ah' sounds on every pitch in her range. I snipped them all up, and using a sampler, mapped them so that I could 'play' her voice from a keyboard. Then I used some fancy programming to make each 'ah' repeat as I hold down a key, or more specifically, to 'bounce' like a ball propelled by gravity... and then reverse itself. The result is that each 'ah' bounces rapidly and gradually smears into the next, creating the illusion of a held note, and then spreads out again. When 'playing' the voice this way, an extra-natural vocal articulation is achieved, but the sound of the instrument itself is entirely acoustic, and even human. This bit of technical geekery is a play on 'alternate world,' presenting the familiar in a strange new light." - Ryan Lott

Lyrics:
ALTERNATE WORLD
ALTERNATE AGE
ALTERNATE LIFE

OH OH, WE'LL SHED OUR SKIN
WE'LL WALK THE OTHER SIDE
OH OH, WE'LL BRACE FOR IT
AND CONQUER EVERYTHING
OH OH OH 
AND CONQUER EVERYTHING

OH OH, WE'RE MAGICAL
WE'LL WAKE THE DEAD FROM SLEEP
OH OH, WE'LL SHED OUR SKIN
WE'LL WALK THE OTHER SIDE
OH OH, WE'LL BRACE FOR IT
AND CONQUER EVERYTHING
OH OH OH

TEAR ME AWAY, FROM THIS FIGHT
TEAR ME AWAY, TAKE ME TO AN...
ALTERNATE WORLD
ALTERNATE AGE
ALTERNATE LIFE

ALTERNATE WORLD
ALTERNATE AGE
ALTERNATE LIFE

MAKE WHAT WE BELIEVE
DON'T WE MAKE WHAT WE CAN

The signing of Alice Boman was kind of a coincidence. Adrian Recordings just had an intense spring with a lot of releases and had no plans on signing anything new. Then a local sound engineer from “Studio Möllan” gave us a record with Alice which he thought we should listen to. We did and time just stopped.

The first EP from Alice is called “Skisser” (means “Sketches” in Swedish) because that is exactly what it is. It was released in May 2013. The EP contains songs which Alice recorded in her home, just for her to remember and they were never meant to be heard by anyone, Alice sings with as much force as fragility, a Billie Holiday for the 21st century, without the jazz.
