Pass It On(DUNI MIX)
[Intro: Instrumental, fragmented synth motif, detailed electronic percussion] [Verse 1: F# Dorian, restrained melodic vocal, sparse arrangement] Had a little thought, wouldn’t sit still Kept interrupting me until I wrote it down to get some peace Now it wants an audience. Said, “You’re not ready.” It said, “So?” I know somebody you should know. [Chorus: melodic lift, wider synths, stronger drums] Let it out, let it run Let somebody else have fun With the bit you haven’t figured out. Say it wrong, say it loud See what happens in a crowd. Got a good thing going? Pass it on. [Drop: instrumental drum and bass, chopped vocal motif] Pass it on. What you got? What you got? Pass it on. [Verse 2: reduced drums, evolving synth motif] You crossed out half and kept the best, Then someone added, “What if this?” I nearly said, “That’s not my plan” Then asked to see that bit again. It came back doing something new. I’d never have thought of that. Would you? [Chorus: melodic lift, variation] Let it out, let it run Let somebody else have fun With the bit you haven’t figured out. Say it wrong, say it loud See what happens in a crowd. Got a good thing going? Pass it on. [Bridge: half-time feel, intimate vocal, minimal harmony] I liked being the one who knew. I like this better—me and you. Keep my name in smaller letters; Leave some room for something better. [Final Chorus: full arrangement, evolved main motif] Let it out, let it run Look what everybody’s done With the bit I couldn’t figure out. Started small, getting round— Wonder who will hear it now. Got a good thing going? Pass it on. [Outro: instrumental motif continues evolving]
