Appears on |
Tomorrow's Harvest
|
- Joe Clay: "Hey, it's "Roygbiv" Part II. Well, a sharper, less gauzy take on the MHTRTC classic. Like everything on Tomorrow's Harvest, it is not as accessible or friendly as their previous work, but it is definitely from the same gene-pool." [1]
Samples / Lyrics
- At about 1:54 in the track a distorted voice appears to say "Jesus was a human being" [2], or possibly "Jesus was you and me"
followed by what sounds like:
"to float up kindly with my greed" (not this, but it's somewhat unintelligible)
"promises eternal life"
"when you knew it was not right"
"when you knew that what I need was really some comfort there"
Trivia
- The title may be a reference to the Beatles' song 'Strawberry Fields Forever', which contains the line 'Nothing is real, and nothing to get hung about', this may be relevant, as in interviews the Sandison brothers have expressed a strong interest in the Beatles' psychedelic works, Strawberry Fields Forever being one of their most psychedelic.
