about

There was a running joke in the band, where Patrick would encourage, coerce, or even jokingly "trick" Tina into singing a song (by laying a "guide track" with Tina's vocal, for Patrick to sing to); this song is a prime example of that.

"I personally love Tina's voice (obviously), and even if I would write the words to a song, I often felt her voice suited the song better, such was the case with Warm," Patrick explains,
"plus, Tina is just simply a much better vocalist than I am, so she could do things with ease, that I could write, or play on an instrument, but would have variable results with my voice."
"And I should point out, since I mentioned the strength of Tina's voice, that in the 'Walking home in the cold..' section, we intentionally kept a performance that had a slight warble on the word 'walking', because it gave the shivery sense of walking in the cold (to us), that was absent from subsequent, more technically 'perfect' takes. One of many instances where we consciously used something that had 'imperfections' to actually add to the song itself."

This song began as essentially a re-write for the song "Notion" (demo of which is on the Sky Pipes rarities collection)

lyrics

Warm
=====

Stop, stare
It fills up the air
Is it just me?
Do they hear what i see?

If you looked right here
You could lose your fears
And maybe it's a comforting form
And maybe it keeps you warm

Time designned to find your mind
Time refined to fill your mind
Time is mine to find

If you looked right here
You could lose your fears
Maybe it's the attractive form
Maybe it makes you warm

Walking home in the cold
You see the lights ahead
Coming in from the storm
Go to the fire to get warm

If you looked right here
You could lose your fears
Maybe the strength will form
Maybe you're getting warm

about

Wide-Eyed Ypsilanti, Michigan

Formed in the beginning of 2001, Wide-Eyed is Tina Lambright and Patrick Pyne. Despite being a duo, they rotated instruments for recordings to make full, band-oriented songs of varying sounds and styles. Their music can be generally described as experimental pop, or psychedelic rock, but avoiding cliches of any genre. Serious, funny, abstract or direct, despite the dressing, enjoyment is the focus ... more
