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 »

The brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
No the brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
When I told the old man I know it's been a while
But I remember the old days
We used to be the kings of this desert town
Yeah we used to be the kings of this desert town
We both had ladies with wavy hair of brown
That Jubal and I
He sipped and, ever clever, quipped
I see you haven't ditched your script
That hasn't been rewritten all this time
Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here all along
The brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
No the brim of his cup couldn't hide his smile
I studied the old man's face for a while
I studied his old ways
Around and around he was taking me
Around and around in his memories
But I found they just wound up ground up into tea
That we were sipping on
And as he headed out the door
I asked him what do you live for
Without a blink, he answered
Here and now
Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here all along
Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here all along
Now Jubal and I watch the clouds in the sky
Burn away as we're singing a song
The sights and the smells that the old man tells me
I've missed have been here
All along
