Story Behind The Song
Still waters run deep and they can SHOUT with a gospel choir accompaniment, too. I made an autobiographical comment about being so drawn to calm, profound, sexy folk and wanted to make an exultant expression full of life and soul and joy about what is quiet and beautiful.
Song Description
This song was famed DJ Ian O'Malley's favorite from the album and the catchy, organic and rhythmic arrangement sound like Paul Simon. Off-beat high-ceilinged group hand claps give the song a classic feel, and the gospel choir singing "power ! truth ! joy ! love !" over the syncopated acoustic guitar and bouncing bass with XTC-infused power drums combine to make an ebullient pop-rock celebration.
