about

The music came before the lyrics so for a while we didn't know what to sing about, until we realized the best idea was precisely to sing about not knowing what to sing about!

lyrics

A Waiting Game of Nonsense


Patch pan pie tie cymbal
Random Thoughts
and
Dare to try, cry baby
White mysterious fog
a
Noise poise toys Joyce Melville
Proust Prost cheers
well
Now talk fruits: pear cherry
Complete nonsense
Steak haché croque monsieur
ça fait chier quoi!
Don't speak French, hear the vibes!
Ah ah
What was that? A choir?
S A T B Piano
And then an ugly chord

Singing songs my dear friends is a blessing, my life
A refrain, an odd verse and some background vocals

Now let the guy sing something new
Until the next idea comes through (sure!)

I try and try to say something that would sound sagacious
But as I open my mouth it speaks nonsense
Had no idea about the meaning of the lyrics
And as you noticed I'm playing for time
A waiting game, it's just a waiting game of nonsense

Back with our nonsense
Did you miss it?
Well
Here it comes
(Choral parenthetic moment)
Teapots fly bye Zero
Big black cow
and
Dental floss Frank Alan
Green mysterious swamp
Pepper milk gin tonic
Angostura
See feel touch hear Tommy
Complete nonsense
Di a da in con su
Per tra fra
COSÌ!
Polyglots shush, shut up!
Ah ah
Once again? The choir?
Pa pa pa da da da
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
Da dadada
Da dadada

Well then
Guess you had enough now, isn't it?
Maybe we can just give up this nonsense
Even think about a new theme, with
words that could be understood as common sense
Rather than a bunch of silly talks
We could tell you stories, legends and romance
We're not playing for time again but our
Stories, legends and romances surely need
their good foreword, but we finished our
time

about

Loomings Strasbourg, France

Loomings is a one of a kind musical universe of mingled voices and percussions, acoustic and electronic sounds. Our songs follow unpredictable paths: sometimes they emerge from complex compositional strategies, sometimes they’re just driven by the desire to walk through harmonies, vocal arabesques, instrumental unisons and phases. ... more
