lets get the job done

Darren Hayes, 'How To Build A Time Machine',
This Delicate Thing We've Made




I took me a while to count how many songs this reminds me of...but for now ill claim it an instant classic.
It opens a la 'Pi' Mister Hayes iterates the quantum design. The deep voice in the chorus, around 1.55, reminds me of the sound of 'Sat In You Lap' also mirroring it thematically; detailing a thirst for knowledge.
2.57 sounds like Bjork, i wanna say 'big time sensuality' cos its a title that springs to mind. The strings hit you in the fourth minute and sound like a million Kate songs - this is no bad thing.
Each time i listen i hear new things, 'calling my dad' got me last time, then i noticed that although running down the halls, should echo 'running down that hill' it's much more frenzied almost an homage to 'hounds of love'. Its in the trees its coming.
This is my current favourite. Buy the album. I'm focusing on Disc one only and each song gives me too much to write a coherent review. So lets just say i love it.

the professor is mad and hes working at feverish pace


Okay one more post, seeing as its technically Sunday here now...
I like the new Sugababes song and you might too? hinthint clickclick


I also love the Darren Hayes album: 'The Tuning of Violins' sounds like Keanes 'Somehwere Only We Know?' but with much more sunshine, and 'Waking the Monster' shows such good narrative storytelling, so everyone please buy it next week and in lieu of my own heres Simon Curtis with his review for ElectroQueer.
Breaking news... electroqueer ... aka Raj is now engaged to his beloved boyfriend so big congratulations guys! and everyone leave him a comment when u follow the link.
