Band: Randy Newman
Album: Bad Love
Song: Going Home

This is a world war i song. world war i fascinates me because it was such a shock to the world. nothing before or since has come close. it was a horrible, horrible event. it was modern weaponry
Avalry and then tanks. they fought for four years over a hundred yards, some ridiculously small amount of ground. it's the stupidest event in history.

This is one of those songs that i just can't sing - it's right in one of the cracks in my range. so we did it to approximate what a recording of that era would sound like. i know mitchell's
G to get blamed in some review for using all these effects, but we did it because i simply can't sing the thing.
