The Altogether

The Altogether is Orbital's sixth studio album and was released in 2001. It features guest vocals by the Hartnolls' brother-in-law David Gray, a sampled Ian Dury, a sample from "Sober" by Tool and a version of the Doctor Who theme. It was Orbital's last studio album for FFRR and received a mixed critical reception. Describing the album shortly before it was released, Phil Hartnoll said, "Whereas Middle of Nowhere was written for a detached mood, for sitting in a field and listening to by yourself, The Altogether is for listening to at a party with your mates. That's what I take it to mean anyway. Paul thinks it's about not having any clothes on."As of 2001, it had sold 135,000 copies worldwide. As of 2004, the album had sold 58,000 copies in United States. more »

What did she say
And what did I not say back
This time?
You're turning your head
Saying friends don't just talk like that
It's fine
Well I swear I didn't swear
I didn't think I couldn't handle myself there
'Cause if push came to shove
The ones I love
Would take the blade to ones who care
Throw me to the sea
I think I've had enough excitement for one day
And she's expecting me
With hips that she moved
And lips that she only used
To lie
She drew me in
And I drew the line and said
Goodbye
But I swear I didn't swear
I didn't think I couldn't handle myself there
'Cause if push came to shove
The ones I love
Would take the blade to ones who care
Throw me to the sea
I think I've had enough excitement for one day
And she's expecting me
So take me out,
C'mon take me out
Take me out
Just take me out
'Cause we're floating high enough
To see the contours of the earth
I don't know why you think I'd settle
For that dirty rock
If I crash the landing where she's standing
Do you think we'd hear her say
I swear I didn't swear
I didn't think
I couldn't handle myself there
But if push comes to shove
The ones I love
Will take the blade to ones who care
Go on and throw me to the sea
I think I've had enough excitement for one day
And she's expecting me
So take me out
Just take me out
Take me out
And throw me to the sea
I think I've had enough excitement for one day
And she's expecting me
