about

Christ, did this take a long time to record. It actually started out as a completely different song (albeit with the same title) with a radically different vibe, lyrics, mood…the whole kit and caboodle. We ploughed through it and into it for about a month until Brian made the off-hand remark that it sounded like “Going For The One” by Yes. He was right, it did….it really did, so we binned it. I’m glad we followed our instinct – this version of the vision of a global internment and the smug, incredulous reaction of those responsible is one of the best things we’ve done thus far. To say we were meticulous, picky and exacting with this song is something of an understatement.

Brian’s contrasting guitar parts on this song are masterful; no matter what shape a track takes, he always manages to weld some really stirring hooks into it and this track is a perfect example. Just listen to the way his first solo at the end shadows the melody of the chorus vocal with a sinister undertone.
