The song Fyfe Dangerfield created from scratch in 24 hours with help from Q Readers has gone on sale this afternoon (7 July).
Super Injunction was written and recorded on Monday (4 July) and Tuesday this week, with the public sending the Guillemots frontman lyrics, sounds, ideas and more via Q's Twitter account.
The limited edition download is available from iTunes, with proceeds going to the charity War Child.
Meanwhile Dangerfield has given us the lyrics for the finished song:
There's a light but I don't know what it means
I may have misunderstood the task
This soul is not for sale
This soul is not for sale
The soul is not for sale
This soul is not for sale
We had tomorrow fall up today
You stole my voice
You stole my voice
You stole my voice
You stole my voice
When I wanted you to sing
Oh white and black
Oh white and black
You're ruining everything
The knees are weak
The back is turned
We slip away
And try to burn
The fire that the smoke comes from
And the papers crackle like an antique movie screen
Oh what have we done?
It's really mystifying!
Aphonic dreams
Across the tongue
Don't make us speak
Of what we've done
Just want to glide
Across the sea
And hitchhike through
The galaxy
But when we turn
The world's still there
Unmoving as
The summer air
What can you do?
What can you say?
The human heart
Just gets away
You try to be right
You try to be right
You try to deny
You try to do right
You tilt your head
Towards the moon
In hope of something out of sight
But there's an ark in every darkness
Finally Dangerfield and Q would like to thank the following for their contributions towards the finished song:
BassTone Slap, The Children of Ashingdon School, Rochford Essex, The Children Of Heathfields Primary School, Hatton, S.Derbyshire and contributions musical and lyrical from many, many others. Artwork Painting by David Ditchfield - www.davidditchfield.org.uk - and mastered by Christian Wright at Abbey Road.
