Todd Edwards:
Keep building those
Thomas Bangalter:
Keep building those, yeah
Todd Edwards:
Keep building random mem
Thomas Bangalter:
So you know this song is about Todd coming here and making the song, and working with us. I would never leave, keep building these random memories
Todd Edwards:
Good, we're almost there. That's this part, I knew the beginning was the hardest part! It was like working with it
Thomas Bangalter & Todd Edwards:
Never leave, keep building these random memories, oh
Todd Edwards:
'Cause wait, that's the thing, "Since I can't", it's gonna be like, something about it having to stop, the way I'll get around that is by going back to these
Thomas Bangalter:
Fragments of time
Todd Edwards:
Yes, yes exactly. These fragments, that's how it's going to be
Thomas Bangalter:
These fragments of time
Thomas Bangalter:
I just keep playing back these fragments of time
Thomas Bangalter:
Fragments of time
Todd Edwards:
Do me a favor, I don't mean to cut you because we're almost. I just wanna hear the, before the "way"
I don't ever want it to end
If I had my way, I would never leave
Keep building these random memories
Before it's too late
Okay, so that's the part, I just have to remember that
Okay, alright, so, um, so the thing of it is "I can't stay" but it's like the whole concept is "I can't stay"
Thomas Bangalter:
But it comes to end, but since everything comes
Since everything
I don't know if it's you that "can't stay"
Todd Edwards:
I know, but
And I don't ever want it to end
Thomas Bangalter:
If I had my way, I would never leave
Keep building these random memories
Thomas Bangalter & Todd Edwards:
Since I can't stay
Todd Edwards:
Do you think the line should, I think this will be a good thing
Should the line reflect that things can't stay the same? Like in other words, I wish that it could always remain today, like type of thing? Like should it be that? Like that might help in writing it, like in other words, you know
Thomas Bangalter:
Keep building these random memories
Turning your days into melodies
Todd Edwards:
That's so sweet! That this is
Thomas Bangalter:
But since I can't stay
Todd Edwards:
Turning our days into melodies
Okay
Thomas Bangalter & Todd Edwards:
If I had my way, I would never leave
Keep building these memories
Turning our days into melodies
But since I can't stay
Todd Edwards:
Woohoo!
Thomas Bangalter & Todd Edwards:
If I had my way, I would never leave
Keep building these memories
Turning our days into melodies
But since I can't stay
Thomas Bangalter:
I think sometime the hard thing is just finding the melody
And now we have the melody for the second part of the verse, which can just like write another thing
Todd Edwards:
Yes, exactly! Exactly!
Thomas Bangalter:
If we do that, it just becomes 2 verse or if we, or if we, really struggle it can just become the second verse. More like a backup plan, y'know?
Todd Edwards:
Exactly, exactly. Yeah, exactly. And plus, the idea is that you can even, you know, for the second verse kinda sing it like this, but change some of it. Like you know, improvise like. [humming melody]
Thomas Bangalter:
But if there's no way, you can just play that
Todd Edwards:
Yeah, yeah. Exactly. Whatever the case, we'll find a breakthrough
Thomas Bangalter:
Yeah, yeah, I agree, let's imagine that we do
Todd Edwards:
There's so many, so many possibilities for it to be rhymed easily
Faces I've never seen
Thomas Bangalter:
Fantasy? We're doing that in another song
Todd Edwards:
I didn't say "fantasy", I said faces I've seen in dreams
Thomas Bangalter:
Oh, you didn't? Oh
Todd Edwards:
In other words
Thomas Bangalter:
Oh, "familiar faces I've never seen?". Instead of doing, instead of doing "unfamiliar faces" that feels like it's still, familiar faces I've never seen, you know?
Todd Edwards:
I love it, that's so crazy
Thomas Bangalter & Todd Edwards:
Faces I've never seen
Thomas Bangalter:
That's good, right?
Todd Edwards:
In my memories, I found my dream
Or like?
Thomas Bangalter:
Familiar faces I've never seen
Todd Edwards:
Oh my god, that's such a beautiful line. Familiar faces I've never seen, I love it!
Thomas Bangalter & Todd Edwards:
Familiar faces I've never seen
Thomas Bangalter:
Feeling this straight
Thomas Bangalter & Todd Edwards:
Out of a dream
Todd Edwards:
Or you know, a half-remembered dream, or something
Thomas Bangalter:
There's something like that in "Touch", he said that
Todd Edwards:
Oh really? That's crazy. I did not, I didn't even pick that up
Thomas Bangalter:
A half-remembered song, yeah. That's exciting me
Todd Edwards:
Yeah, but I swear, but like that just came up. That connection is just like, it's crazy
Thomas Bangalter:
Seen and dream, that's cool too! Dream, been. A dream within a dream, that's in "Touch" too. Yeah there's the word "dream" everywhere!
Todd Edwards:
Yeah and that's fine! It kinda has a connection, like the congruency, yeah!
Todd Edwards:
That "familiar faces" line, man, that's hot. To be able to express something so great, and, like, it's almost like a haiku, you know what I mean? You only have a few syllables to say something and it's like
Thomas Bangalter:
Familiar faces I've never seen. But yeah, that's totally my alley of California vibes, you know?
Todd Edwards:
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Thomas Bangalter:
Familiar faces I've never seen
Todd Edwards:
You know, I'm actually, there's some parts I'm getting choked up because it's so damn emotional just putting these 3 weeks into words, it's really intense, actually. I've never felt anything like this before
Unknown voice:
Yeah, now every time you hear this song, you're gonna
Todd Edwards:
Yeah, seriously, it's insane
It's capturing it, it's making it forever!
Todd Edwards:
Yeah
