One Very Important Thought
Running time 1:05 (BoC Maxima)
1:14 (MHTRTC)
Appears on Boc Maxima
MHTRTC


Comments

  • Two versions exist of the track. The earlier version on BoC Maxima contains a vocal sample from the conclusion of a 1982 adult film titled "A Brief Affair" altered by a flanger effect. For the later version on Music Has the Right to Children, the text was re-recorded and slightly altered, adding a reference to the Boards of Canada.
  • The pitch of the music rises gradually during the track, which can be noticed clearly by rewinding the track or playing it twice in succession.

Samples / Lyrics

"Now that the show is over, and we have jointly exercised our constitutional rights, we would like to leave you with one very important thought: Some time in the future, you may have the opportunity to serve as a juror in a so-called obscenity case. It would be wise to remember that the same people who would stop you from viewing an adult film may be back next year to complain about a book, or even a TV program. If you can be told what you can see or read, then it follows that you can be told what to say or think. Defend your constitutionally protected rights - no one else will do it for you. Thank you."
