Description
Set to a text by Australian poet Douglas Muecke, this is a challenging song about the inner drama of a couple sitting in their lounge room at night. The repetitive text and the static repeated notes give the sense that whilst a lot is happening in the city around them, for this couple nothing ever changes. Originally commissioned for the Song Company by Muecke’s children, Frances and Stephen. Text used by permission.
