"Glittering Cloud" was specially composed and recorded for the Plague Songs collection. It was written for the 8th plague of the Plagues of Egypt, the plague of locusts.
The build up of the song mimics the sounds of the locust. The Array Mbira is heavily featured on the track.
Lyrics[]
I'm not always like this
It's something I become
A terrible weakness
In my nature
In my blood
Save me
Oh, save me
Save me from myself
Before I hurt somebody else again
Domino motion
Jump starts when we touch
The black out approaching
Here it comes now
Wish me luck
It's all over
It's all over
It's all over in a flash
I can't remember
What have I done now
Go Go, faster wider
More, more, get it down yeah
Dance, dance take me over
Glittering cloud
Go Go, faster wider
More, more, get it down yeah
Dance, dance take me over
Glittering cloud
(Spoken:) Oh, my head hurts
Oh dear, oh dear
It's all over the papers
On the TV
Wagging tongues
The artist's impression looks just like me
Only... better
Don't blame me
Don't maim me
I can't help what I am
Oh, lord knows I've tried to
Go Go, faster wider
More, more, get it down yeah
Dance, dance take me over
Glittering cloud
Go Go, faster wider
More, more, get it down yeah
Dance, dance take me over
Glittering clouds
Glittering cloud
Oh, glittering cloud
Glittering cloud
Oh, glittering cloud
Glittering cloud
Go
More
Dance
