Saturday Sun
Neil Finn

It's a saturday sun
and the game is still on
and the waiting is done
it's all about you

as he calls out your name
on a hill far away
he’s looking down from above
it's all about to change

he's insane
calling on the day
'til the clouds get blown away
while inside his mind
lie all of space and time
and the farthest ones unite

it's a saturday sun
and the madness is won
and the night has been sung
out of existence
and my head is alright
was the darkest of nights

now the cadmium sun
is calling on the day
'til the clouds get blown away
there's an eye inside his mind
for all of space and time
he's been waiting for a sign

looking for the revelation maybe
or visions of the underworld
but when you saw the first light,
then you know it's alright

it's a saturday sun
and the madness is won
and the nightmare is done
in time he wakes
colours up the sky
make the darkness come to life
memories inside his heart
of everything he wants to know
and every place he has to go

I got given a microKORG synthesizer/vocoder by Jon Brion while we were recording in L.A. with Jim Scott. He came out and did a couple of overdubs and he gave it to me and I put it to work straight away on that song. It helped us to see it into a different sonic landscape.
