	Story Behind the Song Eclipsing is the fourth song on Balladesque, which was was recorded over the course of a year, from September 98 to September 99. It's Alun's first solo CD. (A solo cassette, Rubber Sole, was released in 96.) As with every indie artist, the budget was almost non-existent, so most of it was recorded at home. At the time, Alun was working as an in-house engineer at Chemical Sound in Toronto, so he was able to do the drums and keyboards on down-time there. The rest, however, was recorded at his own Moldy Floor Studios. Alun played or faked his way through most of the instruments, but since he can't drum or play keyboards very well, he called in some friends who could. Very special thanks to Justin Peroff, Michelle Josef, Mike Munro, James Gray, John Francom, Don Kerr, Mark Kesper and lastly, Oh Susanna, who all performed the parts Alun couldn't play. By the way, the CD cover is a blatant rip-off of The Replacements1984 album Let it Be. Lyrics I follow behind you up to your room again never really sure if Ive ever wanted this tell me to enjoy myself finding pleasure with you the light stays on then you change your mind eclipsing a candle in the sunlight it would never be as bright reflected in your moonlight eyes eclipsing peaks and valleys flattened by the numbness my heart feels so strung out were always returning to comfortless comfort engulfed by you open your eyes wide Ill never know how much you really meant or you just said because you couldnt bear to be alone summer is ending creeping to a close returning to the world that we both know
