Body I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I hear you say 'I can't feel my flesh on my body' Body I've had no sorrow, and I've had no tears I've had no sorrow, and I've had no fears I've had no sorrow, and I've had no tears I've had no sorrow, and I've had no fears I hear you say 'I can't feel my flesh on my body' Body I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I hear you say 'I can't feel my flesh on my body' Body, I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams I got my body and electric dreams

about

Around 2013, 2014 the band entered a new phase, both in its sound and our activity. Richard and Emily took a step back in their involvement in the band and we looked for other people to contribute to our music. During this period 'electro-indie' was emerging and I became more interested in writing on synths, and exploring the merging of the organic and the electronic, particularly with the drums. Cue enter James Askwith who worked with us for a brief period and did some fantastic work creating new synth lines and beats over Richard's drums. I had come up with the synth riff and the song emerged pretty quickly, a depiction of our organic human bodies increasingly merging with the machine. Released in 2015 and probably our most popular song, it's the one song in our catalogue that I would point to as the one that could (should?) have been a hit.
