about

A song of such romantic bliss that you imagine perfection being just the two of you drowning together, drifting silently downward into the deep ocean where you can hear and see no one else but each other. The lights and sound turn off, you'll never be found by those looking for you, you close your eyes and pull closer and closer together.

lyrics

I think that I died, the world is loaded with clues
The first one is you. I think that I died

I don't think I'm here, I'm much too content.
Don't know where I went, but I don't think I'm here.

Don't know where I am, but I have you along.
Don't know for how long, but I have you along.

Don't know where I'm going but you decided to come
Along for the ride. I think that I died.

The way the crowds became ghosts, the way they won't make a sound,
The way I have you around. I think that I died.

I wonder how it went down. I've got a feeling I drowned,
'Cause everything is drifting and I don't hear a sound.
And I can't touch the ground, and I'm looking around
And it's you that surrounds, and we sink to the ground
And stop breathing together, and we've finally found
The isolation we seek, no one else is around
And I'm thrilled that we're bound to never be found
So let's kill the lights, and let's kill the sound
And you close your eyes, and I'll close mine, too
And pull closer to me, and I'll pull closer to you.

I think that I died, the world is loaded with clues
The first one is you. I think that I died

I don't think I'm here, I'm much too content.
Don't know where I went, but I don't think I'm here.

Don't know where I am, but I have you along.
Don't know for how long, but I have you along.

Don't know where I'm going but you decided to come
Along for the ride. I think that I died.

about

The Claudettes Chicago, Illinois

The Claudettes fuse Windy City piano blues with the full-throttle energy of rockabilly and punk, jazz-age echoes of burlesque and vaudeville and the sultriness of '60s pop-soul to write a thrilling new chapter in American roots music. Johnny Iguana (ex-Junior Wells/Otis Rush/oh my god) works the piano alongside singer Berit Ulseth, bassist/singer Zach Verdoorn and drummer Matt Torre. ... more
