Frogtoon Music - Song Info: Hello Earth

Sixth Track Of The Ninth Wave Suite. The Choral Section Performed By The Richard Hickox Singers Is Taken From A Georgian Folk Song Called 'Zinzkaro' 'By The Spring' Which Kate Heard Performed By The Vocal Ensemble Gordela On The Soundtrack Of Werner Herzog's 1979 Film Nosferatu The Vampyre. The Lyric Translates As 'I Was Passing By The Spring.
There I Met A Beautiful Woman With A Jug On Her Shoulder.
I Spoke A Word To Her And She Left Offended.
I Was Passing By The Spring.' The Song Was Used In An Episode Of The American TV Series Miami Vice. Hello Earth' Was A Very Difficult Track To Write As Well Because It Was... In Some Ways It Was Too Big For Me. Laughs And I Ended Up With This Song That Had Two Huge Great Holes In The Choruses Where The Drums Stopped And Everything Stopped And People Would Say To Me "what's Going To Happen In These Choruses " And I Hadn't Got A Clue.
We Had The Whole Song It Was All There But These Huge Great Holes In The Choruses. And I Knew I Wanted To Put Something In There And I'd Had This Idea To Put A Vocal Piece In There That Was Like This Traditional Tune I'd Heard Used In The Film Nosferatu. And Really Everything I Came Up With It With Was Rubbish Really Compared To What This Piece Was Saying. So We Did Some Research To Find Out If It Was Possible To Use It. And It Was So That's What We Did We Re-Recorded The Piece And I Kind Of Made Up Words That Sounded Like What I Could Hear Was Happening On The Original. And Suddenly There Was These Beautiful Voices In These Chorus That Had Just Been Like Two Black Holes.
In Some Ways I Thought Of It As A Lullaby For The Earth. And It Was The Idea Of Turning The Whole Thing Upside Down And Looking At It From Completely Above. You Know That Image Of If You Were Lying In Water At Night And You Were Looking Up At The Sky All The Time I Wonder If You Wouldn't Get The Sense Of As The Stars Were Reflected In The Water You Know A Sense Of Like You Could Be Looking Up At Water That's Reflecting The Stars From The Sky That You're In. And The Idea Of Them Looking Down At The Earth And Seeing These Storms Forming Over America And Moving Around The Globe And They Have This Like Huge Fantasticly Overseeing View Of Everything Everything Is In Total Perspective. And Way Way Down There Somewhere There's This Little Dot In The Ocean That Is Them. Richard Skinner 'Classic Albums Interview Hounds Of Love. Radio 1 UK Aired 26 January 1992 Columbia Now Nine Times The Speed Of Sound."
"Roger That Dan I've Got A Solid TACAN
locked On Uh TACAN Twenty-Three."
"The Uh Tracking Data Map Data And Pre-Planned
trajectory Are All One Line On The Block"
"Roger Your Block Decoded"
