A Distinctive Sound Lyrics - Like Drawing Blood - Gotye

This will teach them how to groove 

All right, let's get aquatinted 

(hello there) 

music from the bass perspective 

this is a journey into sound 

a journey which along the way will to bring you 

new color, new diminution, new values 

and a new experience - stereophonic sound 

(and now ladies and gentlemen, our feature act tonight) 

(Stop!) 

(Get it, get it, get it!) 

Come on, Come on, Come on 

That was the harpsichord 

now-a-days, most homes seem to prefer 

the television or radio, to the harpsichord, 

but you still hear the piano, all the time 

a flute couldn't do that 

these are some of the difficulties 

with being a disposition and talking to you 

and just wanting really deeply to relate to you 

and touch you - not physically - but with vibration 

(ha ha ha ha) 

never heard metal sound like that before 

the drummer is the heartbeat 

everything comes from him 

he is the beat, the time, the heartbeat 

it's just like a heart pumping blood 

to the rest of the body 

he is the heartbeat of a band, a group 

he is the heartbeat 

I think around midpoint in my career 

I started to experiment with sounds 

and then it became very important to 

get a distinctive sound 

get a distinctive sound 

get a distinctive sound 

maybe if I spend more time practicing, 

eventually I can get it together 

Um - here's some more music 

All right! Here we go! 

Now were going to use a little power kicks 

like I showed you before 

we're going to chuck-em real good 

A-minor to F 

just like all the heavy metal guys use, okay 

lets get some of that smoke just like on MTV 

yeah! all right! 

music - all right 

yeah! all right! 

would you say that again 

yeah! all right! 

let's play a note 

yeah! all right! 

Here's some more music 

yeah! all right! 

get a distinctive sound 

get a distinctive sound 

get a distinctive sound 

get a distinctive sound 

We've covered a lot of ground, haven't we? 

if there's a part of our story you don't understand 

why don't you turn this record over 

and start playing over again 

over again 

over again
