Un bel contenitore di suoni diversi, non c'è che dire. Oltre al numero di strumenti presenti nel disco, le atmosfere create spaziano dagli swing degli anni '50 ("Earth Angel") ai pianoforti tintinnanti aggiunti e alle chitarre degli anni '70 e '90. Un disco senza tempo, che fa molto sfondo. Non per niente è la colonna sonora dell'omonimo film. Nello scarno panorama britannico, Damon Gough ha il merito di aver creato qualcosa di ... singolare. E' un disco piacevole che lascia un buon sapore in bocca quando lo si ripone nella custodia. Certo non è illuminante. Consigliabile

01   Exit Stage Right (00:21)

02   A Peak You Reach (04:33)

No sign of life
pulsing through these ageing veins
I bet at your age
that's easier for you to say
forcing answers into questions
and worrying that you might stop breathing

on and on we sift
through alphabets of life
that never get us anywhere anyway
I'd like you to feel we have the best intentions
I want you to know
that I know it's not easy

I want you to know
that I know it's not easy
easy, easy

Then there's a peak you reach
out to somebody
that's never even there
somebody that you may hope
that they might care
from nearby health
or distant welfare
I'm pleased to hear
that you're warm cos I'm freezing

Yeah, I'm freezing
Cool

I don't wanna be alone
is that out of the question
I'd like a happy home
is that too obvious
quit being pushed around
stand on my feet
and kick all these losers
out of my street

I've been losing confidence
in the heat
just when I'm feeling the strength
I get weak
I've been losing confidence
in the heat
just when I'm feeling the strength
I get weak

Then there's a peak you reach
out to somebody
a peak you reach
that's never even there
a peak you reach
I'd like you to feel we've
reached our peak

A peak you reach

07   Silent Sigh (04:44)

Come see what we all talk about
People moving to the moon
Stop baby don't go stop here
Never stop living here
Till it eats the heart from your soul
Keeps down the sound of your
Silent sigh. Silent sigh, silent sigh
Silent, silent silent.
Keeps down all move me down
Cos the way we love each other

Come see what we all talk about
People moving to the moon
Stop baby don't go stop here
Never stop living here
Till it eats the heart from your soul
Keeps down the sound of your
Silent sigh, Silent Sigh, Silent Sigh,
Silent sigh silent sigh silent sigh,
Keeps down all move me down
But don't love each other
No don't love each other
Never gonna be the sound, get it on.

See, si,
See, si,
See, si,
Silent sigh.
Silent, silent silent silent silent, sigh.
Please don't, all, move me down.
Silent, silent, silent silent sigh.
Silent sigh.
Move me down.
We're gonna love, each other.

14   A Minor Incident (03:44)

There's nothing i could say to make you try to feel ok
And nothing you could do to stop me feeling the way i do
And if the chance should happen that i never see you again
Just remember that i'll always love you

I'd be a better person on the other side i'm sure
You'd find a way to help yourself
And find another door
To shrug off minor incidents
And Make us both feel proud
I'd just wish i could be there to see you through

You always were the one to make us stand out in a crowd
Though every once upon a while your head was in a cloud
There's nothing you could never do to ever let me down
And remember that i'll always love you

15   Delta (Little Boy Blues) (04:00)

16   Donna & Blitzen (04:19)

Wait for the light
But you've been still sly
Baby it's not your sleigh ride
But this yet it's ours
And maybe tomorrow
Were gonna see
Things I'd never believe
I'll make you want me you'll see
The initia morning of spring
Only two reindeer
Oh what a sight
As they take their first flight

I will, I will



We wait until
For them into the sky
Oh baby it's all inside

I will, I will

Born in the night
As two reindeer take flight
Oh what a sight

I will, I will
I will sleep tonight
