Looking for Life Lyrics
 
 

Has anyone noticed that in "Looking For Life" at about 3:13 and near the end, there are some extra vocals low down in the mix? Does anyone know what he's singing?

Have brought this up before a few years back, but the only conclusion was that it was some indecipherable "Jarvis babble".

It's actually Peter Boam - he's singing "Once I had, I had a vision / Briliant white walls and lights in each corner they danced" - a couple of lines from an older song of his own. Jarvis insisted on mixing it down on the basis that it sounded "like bloody Gene Pitney". Is this in the book? I can't remember!

Interesting, I don't remember this at all, but Mark does mention it in his book, so I must have read it at least a couple of times. I've noted it on the PulpWiki page.
