about

Tara LeAnn: I loved hearing this “jhaptal” rhythm, in five, on the tabla whenever Carlos played it. The words and melody came through when I was jamming with Carlos on tabla and Kim Riccelli on Hang in November, 2008. It never sounded quite right, though, until one day, when I picked up a drum brush and started banging the rhythm on our two minor-tuned waveharp...and suddenly, we had a whole song. You never know when something is going to fit...in fact, not knowing seems to be the most creative beginning point we have found!

lyrics

Some like it hot
Some like it not
He wants it cold
She can't be told
There's no up or down
Can't say where it's found
'Cause you never know

I love to sing
You have another thing
Where is my audience?
I'm held in suspense
So I'll sing for me
Let my voice go free
'Cause you never know

There's no time
Life's a game
Now
Where's your song for yourself?

I chose a rocky way
Too full to breathe or play
And it's another now
Change happens anyhow
Life will always be
Lovely mystery
'Cause you never know

There's no time
Life's a game
Now
Where's your song for the world?

I chose a rocky way
Too full to breathe or play
And it's another now
Change happens anyhow
Life will always be
Lovely mystery
'Cause you never know
