    Story Behind the Song
    "THE SUBMARINE" IS REALLY THE SONG THAT SHOULD HAVE STARTED THE WHOLE 2NU THING. NINE YEARS LATER IT FINALLY SHOWED UPAND NOW EVERYONE KNOWS HOW THE ADVENTURE BEGAN.
    WE WERE PRIVILEDGED TO HAVE A GREAT PERSON BY THE NAME OF ROBY DUKE COMPOSE AND LEND HIS TREMENDOUS GUITAR PLAYING TALENTS TO THIS SONGAND ALL THE SONGS ON OUR NEW RELEASE "2NU2.COM". WE HAD THE LUXURY OF SPENDING A LOT OF TIME ON "THE SUBMARINE". WE WERE LOOKING FOR A VERY, VERY DIFFERENT SOUNDSEVERAL MUSIC GENRES WRAPPED INTO ONE TUNE. THE GUITAR WORK. THE SHIFT IN FEELS. THE SOUND EFFECTS PACKAGE. THE MOOD. ALL CAME TOGETHER ABOUT 3:00AM ON A COLD NOVEMBER MORNING IN 1999.

    Lyrics
    THE SUBMARINE (CHAPTER 1)
    (c)NU MUSIC, LLC

    OUTSIDE AT NIGHT: CRICKETS/DOG BARKING/HAMMERING
    MAN IN DISTANCE: "BETTER GET THAT DOG OUT OF MY YARD!"

    ONE NIGHT I FOUND A BUNCH OF EMPTY BEER CANS IN MY BACK YARD
    AND DECIDED TO BUILD A SUBMARINE...
    I'D CALL HER THE "THE BIG ADVENTURE".
    I'D NEED A PERISCOPE...
    ONE CHANGE OF PARTY CLOTHES...
    AND MY OWN MYSTERIOUS LITTLE LANGUAGE...

    MYLA PLUME BACOUP CHE LAFAY
    ESTE PRYEE LA PLUME
    DE LAPHONG MON CHALEE

    EVERY EXPLORER NEEDS A QUEST.
    MINE WAS TO FIND THE COOLEST PLACE IN THE WORLD...

    SCHON DELAFOO RYES MANUM
    BIA SAYCHING BRAZUM
    (REPEAT)

    SO, I PULLED THE COVER OF DARKNESS UP OVER MY HEAD...
    AND SLIPPED INTO IT.

    THE BIG ADVENTURE WAS TAKING ME SOUTH.
    DEEP INTO THE LAND OF SAND AND ICE.
    TO A PLACE OF MAGICAL CREATURES
    THAT COULD DAZZLE THE IMAGINATION.
    TO THE LAND OF PODNAR.
    POSSESSOR OF THE "THE POWER OF THE LIGHT".

    SCHON DELAFOO RYES MANUM
    BIA SAYCHING BRAZUM

    MY FIRST DAY AT SEA I COME TO AN "X"...
    AND DECIDED TO HEAD TO THE BOTTOM OF LAKE AMONAKEEPA....

    JUST OUTSIDE THE WINDOW, I COULD SEE A CATFISH...
    (MEOW)

    SITTING AT A SANDBAR...
    DRINKING A DRY MARTINI ON THE ROCKS.
    AND HE SAY'S...

    MON FRAIR LEI ESTE BACOO
    CHE LA FEMME (MEOW)

    I DECIDED TO TAKE MY CANOE TO THE OTHER
    SIDE OF THE RIVER OF TEARS.
    THEN, I REMEMBERED. I DON'T HAVE A CANOE.

    SO I YELLED ACROSS TO THE BLONDE RIVER GODDESS...
    "HOW DO I GET TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE RIVER?"

    AND SHE SAYS,
    "YOU'RE ALREADY ON THE OTHER SIDE."

    THIS IS GOING TO SAVE ME SOME TIME.

    I THOUGHT TO MYSELF...
    "YOU HAVE NOW REACHED THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL."

    IF I'VE SAID IT ONCE, I'VE SAID IT...
    I'VE SAID IT.

    THEN THE STEWARDESS SAYS...

    "'THE 'BIG ADVENTURE' IS NOW SURFACING IN 2 OUT OF THREE FALLS. POPULATION 11,952. PLEASE REMAIN SEATED UNTIL WE HAVE COME TO A FULL AND COMPLETE... STOP."
