    Story Behind the Song
    Was working on a suite of like themed tunes with a friend of mine and through a accidental mixup of patch cords my synth started changing patches at light speed, creating the trippy arpeggio that is the base of the tune. The lyrics are apoclptic. Recorded it all at home on a 4 track synced with a computer for the virtual tracks. I suppose it took around a month to compose and record all the tracks.

    Lyrics
    V1
    No stars out at night, and the days are as dark as the end
    The moons burning bright,set my course for a night without end
    We'll waltz and we'll live, till the walls come a' tumblin' in
    We'll make love until dawn,
    And then we'll all do the Jericho Waltz
    V2
    A very cool springtime night,carried swift by the northerly wind
    This ball is the one, all will come all my foes and my friends
    Let the treasures be spent, spare naught for the ball of the age
    We'll waltz and we'll sing, while the walls come 'a tumblin' in
    Forget all our faults..Then we'll all do the Jericho Waltz
    DO THE JERICHO!
    (Guitar Solo)
    V3
    Let the vision be shared, let none turn away from this ball
    All eyes awake...We must all do the Jericho Waltz
    V4
    Dance...as you've lived..Hard and fast..in a dervish
    Waltz...waltz and live..until dawn brings the light..until you've got no more partners
    REPEAT V1
    DO THE JERICHO ..DO THE JERICHO..DO THE JERICHO
