paroles de chanson Sea Of Voices - Commentary - Porter Robinson

"Sea Of Voices" was an immense, immense effort
That song has gone through so, so many iterations
"Sea Of Voices" first had this weird, weird structure, it wasn't called "Sea Of Voices" then
Um... but it was a totally different chord progression, totally different sets of sounds
It was still like kind of a long builder but it was more...
The sounds were more contemporary, I think
It was less of a vintage-sounding thing

And... the chord progression was much longer, and less simple, and in my opinion less beautiful
And it built it, and built it, and built it, built, built, built
Until it played this tiny little sine melody, sine wave synth melody
And then, uh, that actually had a Vocaloid vocal on it, originally, and the
The lyric was, if I can recall, I believe it was

It went into this like, bass guitar, and it was like...
And then over that it was "we'll stir our spirits 'til we're one"
Uh "and lacking borders, we'll become" and then, yeah
"We'll stir our spirits 'til we're one, and lacking borders, we'll be gone"
That was the lyric originally, and it was an AVANNA Vocaloid
It was a Vocaloid vocal, like "Fresh Static Snow" or "Sad Machine" or something

And, y'know, that version is still kind of dear to me, but I think, you know
Breanne came in and she sang it and absolutely blew it away and uh
I think the way "Sea Of Voices" ended up is much more touching
But I still, I still remember the original version
