On: "Just Another Universe"
The full band version of
this key album song. Layered with guitars, it has a
very warm, heavy sound which conjurs up hot summer nights
and restless sleeps. A seven minute epic, it is
thoughtful and the lyrics are full of regret for the past.
The unexpected jazz chords are lovely, as is the fade out:
Featuring a spiked acoustic guitar line
and blurred, swirling guitar chords. Written in
2000.
175. Come With Me -
remake (Crosbie)
Crosbie:

View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Just Another Universe"
A remake of
this laid back, summer song. The reason this track was
remade was again to improve the quality of the recording; in
this instance the arrangement is exactly the same, but the
playing is tighter. Inspired by a holiday Robert
took with his girlfriend, it projects a sunny atmosphere;
mentions of beaches and Italian food paint a happy
picture. Written
in 2000.
174. Letting It Rain
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, bass, drums, backing vocal Recorded: 17th June 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Chasing The Sun"
One of the strongest songs on the album,
"Letting It Rain" is a tale of lost love and resignation. Written
from a true life experience, this is an atypical
Robert Crosbie song - honest and to the point, but
with great imagery. The story starts with the lovers together and
ends with them apart. Musically it is strong, with a
great harmony vocal chorus (the vocals throughout are excellent) and a brisk
beat that betrays the sombre mood of the song. Although long
for a single (nearly 5 minutes), the track is part of a
"themed" EP featuring "Raining", "If & When", and the
(to date) unrecorded "Gotta Be The Right Thing". Written in
1995.

Binn Eadair View Studio Produced By: Robert
Crosbie Appears On: "Where Was My Goodbye?" /
B-Side
Not a continuation of the epic title track at
all. Robert had, in fact, written two songs of the
same name and was unsure which to use. So, he used both.
This is a beautiful ballad with plucked guitars and
fantastic fade out, similar to that in "Lynne's Song".
Written in 1995.
172. Let It
Out (Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar Recorded: 16th June 2001,
Binn Eadair View Studio Produced By: Robert
Crosbie Appears On: "What Can It Be?" /
B-Side
A simple acoustic guitar ballad. "Let
It Out" is a wistful tune, strangely making mention of
dancefloors and songs. These kind of songs are often
the best ones, and this is no exception. Written in 1996.
171. I Don't Know Where I'm Going

Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic

View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "This Morning" / B-Side
Getting back
to B-Sides after a run of albums songs. This is an unusual
song, with an urgent repeated riff and similarly repeated
vocals. The arrangement is interesting, featuring bongos and
a manic tambourine. This is a typical B-Side, but more a
good idea recorded well than a full "song". Written in
1999.
170. Feet In The Rain - remake
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic

On: "Lotus"
Yet another "Lotus" LP track remake.
This new version follows the same arrangement as the early
version, but like "Don't Want You To Change", improves the
overall quality of the sound. Written in
1998.
169. Drifting
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar, electric guitar, bass, drums, backing
vocal, organ
Recorded: 14th June 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Secret"
"Drifting" is a rough-hewn track, tense
and to the point. Featuring gruff electric guitar with a
disarming flowing rhythm, the track gets busy immediately.
The vocal, too, is rough, but softened by the low-register
harmony on the chorus. As a track, this is an interesting
Lotus number; but more than anything it is a more than
adequate album filler. The unexpected jazz chords in the
fade out perhaps signify Rob's true feelings for the track!
Written in 1999.
168. Gone Away Tonight
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, bass, drums, backing vocal,

On: "Lotus"
A remake of the "Lotus" LP track.
This is a fairly light album track, resting on a cushion of
acoustic guitar. The vocal here is good, with a harmony
vocal that did not feature on the original version. Written
in 1998.
167. Not A Second Time
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, bass, drums, electric guitars, lead guitar,
percussion Recorded: 12th June 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Secret"
Using the same guitar style as
"Free Spirit", this is one of the strongest songs on
"Secret", and a more unusual single. Played by Robert with
Mark Lillis during rehearsals in 1998, it was strange that
it took so long to be recorded. Nonetheless, here it is, and
the end results are excellent: a mellowed and mature
recording with some beautiful guitar parts and an
impassioned vocal. The drums roll through the off-beat
rhythm, and the song takes off during the lead guitar solo.
Great stuff. Written in
1998.
166. Crown
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar, bass, drums,
organ Skelton:
percussion Recorded: 9th June 2001, Binn Eadair

On: unreleased
A recording of the oldest song
so far; "Crown" was performed by Waterfall in 1992. Joining
in the session is Richard Skelton, ex-Waterfall and Starlas
drummer, on bongos. The song itself is unusual, and its
simplicity is a far cry from the accomplishments of "Free
Spirit" et al. This
track is not planned for release and was only recorded for amusement. Written
in 1992.
165. When You're Feeling -
remake (Crosbie)
Crosbie:
Vocal, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass,
lead guitar, backing vocal Recorded: 6th June
2001, Binn Eadair View Studio Produced By: Robert
Crosbie Appears On: "Lotus"
A much better
remake of this "Lotus" LP track. "When You're Feeling" is a
mature rocker, and one of the strongest songs on the album.
It was also a key feature of the '98 live set. Written in
1998.
164. Since I've Been In
Love With You
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar, electric guitar, bass, lead guitar, backing
vocal Recorded: 4th June 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears On: "Lotus"
LP
Written in the "Lotus" LP era, this song is
similar to "One Life To Live". Featuring punchy, snapped
guitar chords and some of the most energetic lead guitar
Robert has played, this is another case of an average
song becoming above-average due to a great recording. The perfomance here
is excellent, sometimes stunning; witness the change to the
minor chord in the guitar solo and
you will hear Rob at his best. Originally a B-Side, this song has now
replaced "Aeroplanes" on the "Lotus" album. Written in
1998.
163. I Don't Believe In

Lillis)
Crosbie:
Vocal, acoustic

View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears On: "I Want To Be On
My Own Again" /
B-Side
After the complex and layered "Free
Spirit", comes this, a solo performance. Co-written by
ex-bassist Mark Lillis during his time with the band, this
is a pleasant tune, with words written by Rob. Performed
with a breathy vocal. Written in
1998.
162. Free Spirit
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, bass,
percussion Recorded: 31st May 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Secret"
Another "Secret" album track, this time
the final track on the album. "Free Spirit" is a joyous
song, full of chiming guitars and melodic twists. It is
broken into three distinct sections: the breezy verse /
chorus structure, featuring some wonderfully intricate
guitar playing. This then disolves into the second section,
and instrumental part featuring picked guitar, and the same
interplay between guitars. The third section builds up with
more fluttering guitars to section one again. This type of
idea has never been done by Lotus before, making this a
novel and inventive song. The lyrics are some of the best
Robert has written, and the overall ensemble performance is probably the best
in his recorded history. Written in
1999.
161. Walking Tall
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, bass,
percussion Recorded: 31st May 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Secret"
The polar opposite of the previous
song, "Walking Tall" is a bouncy folk number, sung gently,
and featuring only acoustic guitars. These are still
layered; in total four guitar parts are on the final mix.
The melody of this song is strong, as is the deftness of the
guitar playing; all in all showing Robert at his casual
best. Written in 1999.
160. Peace
Of Mind - remake (Crosbie)
Crosbie:
Vocal, electric guitars, lead guitar, acoustic
guitar, bass, drums Recorded: 31st May 2001,
Binn Eadair View Studio Produced By: Robert
Crosbie Appears On: "Lotus"
The second
"Lotus" LP remake, "Peace Of Mind" retains the arrangement
of the earlier version but improves the sound. This sound is
a cacophony of pure guitar aggression - the instuments rip
through the chords with brutal definition, while the
drums pound and Robert's vocal barely pokes through the mix,
sounding like it is sung through a megaphone. The final
build-up of this song represents the heaviest, noisiest, and
most aggressive minute of Lotus music. Written in
1998.
159. Don't Want You
To Change - remake (Crosbie)
Crosbie:
Vocal, acoustic guitars, bass,
drums Recorded: 29th May 2001, Binn Eadair View
Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Lotus"
Realising that the 1999 version of
this track was not up to scratch, Robert set about
re-recording this strong song from the "Lotus" album. The
arrangement is much the same as the original version, the
difference coming in sound and production (the drum sound is
much better on this version). He sings it differently too;
here the vocal is soft and tender, and is almost murmured
into the microphone. This gives the impression that
the narrator of this story is vulnerable and
afraid to expose himself any more than is necessary. It
works, and gives the track a new air of intrigue. Written in
1996.
158. Chasing The Sun
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, lead guitar, bass, drums,
organ Recorded: 22th May 2001, Binn Eadair View
Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Chasing The Sun"
Finally, a recording of
this brilliant, epic title track. Robert delayed recording
this for some time, fearing he wouldn't be able to do it
justice, but now has recorded a version worthy of the song.
A slow-building, even paced track, it bursts into life half
way through and builds up for a coda not quite as drawn
out as "Photograph", but nevertheless brings the
track in at over 8 minutes long. The fact that the melody is
so strong disguises any concept of time as the song unfolds.
A perfect album closer, and another great Lotus epic.
Written in 1995.
157. Circus Mirrors
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, electric guitar, bass, drums, backing
vocals Recorded: 20th May 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: unreleased
The darkest Lotus song, and one
of the most unusual. Featuring bizarre sounding detuned
guitars, a doubled vocal, and off beat drums, the song
meanders almost freeform with touches of melody and not too
many regular chord progressions. Conceived more as an
experiment rather than anything else, it is unclear whether
this track will be released at all. Written in
2001.
156. Maybe I Am Wrong
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar, electric guitar, bass, drums, backing
vocals Recorded: 19th May 2001, Binn Eadair
View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Faithful In Your Heart"
A strong
melodic rock song, the key feature of this is the harmony
backing vocals throughout the song. Recorded on Robert's
26th birthday, this is a pleasant song with a deep,
resonant sound which adds weight where a lighter touch would
have made the track too frivolous. Written in
1995.
155. Close To Being Hurt
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar, electric guitar, lead guitar, organ, bass,
drums Recorded: 17th May 2001, Binn Eadair View
Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Chasing The Sun"
Another fast
pop/rock Lotus number, this is similar to "Above All" and
"You & I". Perhaps a little too simple to be an
interesting single, this song nevertheless brightens up the
first half of "Chasing The Sun". The track really takes off
during the middle 8, with a great guitar solo and organ part
which fades nicely into the final chorus. A bubbly bassline completes an lively
track. Written in 1994.
154. By My Side
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar, bass, drums Recorded: 17th May
2001, Binn Eadair View Studio Produced By: Robert
Crosbie Appears On: "Sand" / B-Side
One of the shortest Lotus songs, this
song starts and finishes so briefly it almost dosen't
happen. An off-the-cuff number, it was recorded at the end
of a session more as an after-thought. Drums and bass were
added and the song was complete. A lovely melody which could well be
developed into another song. Written in
2001.
153. Who Was There
(Crosbie)

guitars, mellotron, bass,

View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears On:
"Chasing The Sun"
"Who
Was There" is lyrically an important song, remembering back
to days of youth and therefore has a similar sentiment to
the Beatles "In My Life". Musically it features the same
string sound used on "Speak So Softly", a warm guitar sound,
and high register vocal lines. Written in 1997.

Crosbie: Acoustic
guitars, bass, lead

A remarkable,
ambient instrumental; featuring layered guitars soaked with
echo and delay. Similar to "Warm" although no drums are
featured. Written in 2001.

Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: unreleased
Another crazy, raw rock song, this was
written around the time of "Ballet Dancer" and represents
the final song from that era to be recorded. Almost
identical in sound to "All In All" and "Too Stupid For You",
the track features a nicely drawn out middle section and
some ballsy screaming in the chorus. Written in
1993.
150. Above All

On: "Chasing The Sun"
One of catchiest singles! This track is
a great example of Lotus pop/rock at its best, with a great
guitar hook, memorable lyrics, and all coming in at just 2
minutes. Originally recorded back in 1996, this new version
offers a great guitar sound and a great vocal. Written in
1994.

On: "Faithful In Your Heart"
Mostly
acoustic, this song is straddles several genres: folk, soul,
country and rock. It starts off subtley but then builds to a climax for
the final closing phrases. Written in
1996.
148. So Far Away

Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, bass, drums, backing
vocal Recorded: 16th May 2001, Binn Eadair View
Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "Faithful In Your Heart"
One of Robert's favourite ballads, and a
key song on "Faithful In Your Heart". Lyrically the most
yearing and romantic Robert has written, the arrangement is
basic enough and allows the melody to breathe and the story
to unfold. A favourite among some fans, the vocal here is a
little rougher than it could be. However, it all adds up to
a great version of a well
conceived song. Written in
1995.

On: "Midnight Moonlight" / B-Side
This is a cover of Stina
Nordenstam's song from the 1994 album "And She
Closed Her Eyes". A great song for Robert to cover, he
replaces Nordenstam's high register vocal with his own low
baritone. The instrumentation is just as sparse as the
original; and it features some beautiful guitar playing.

On: "Sand" /
B-Side
A strange sounding piece, with
interesting vocal effects and guitar sounds. Dating
pre-"Ballet Dancer", it fits in quite well with the songs
from this era; however B-Side allocation means that
it will be released seperately from these songs.
Written in 1993.
145. Under Your Spell
(Crosbie)
Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitar, electric guitar, bass, drums, lead guitar,
organ Recorded: 5th May 2001, Binn Eadair View
Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears On: "I
Want To Be On My Own Again" / B-Side
"Under Your
Spell" is one of the most commercial sounding B-Sides, and
was played live by Lotus in 1998. A sweet song, it could
very well have been an A-Side or album track, but was
probably deemed a little too sacharine to be elevated any
higher. A good production with chiming guitars, it is
nonetheless pleasing to the ear. Written in
1998.
144. All

Crosbie:
Vocal, electric guitar, bass,
drums Recorded: 1st May 2001, Binn Eadair View
Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears
On: "What Does It Matter?" /
B-Side
Another minimalist rocker, similar to
"Too Stupid For You". Applying the same tape echo, this is
another reference to Plastic Ono Band and is a striking
piece. The actual song is simplistic but the overall sound
is impressive; the fact that it is a B-Side allows for
a more unusual, and sparse, treatment. "All In All" is one
of the very last "Ballet Dancer"-era songs to be recorded.
Written in 1994.
143. Doing Nothing

Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, percussion Recorded: 30th April
2001, Binn Eadair View Studio Produced By: Robert
Crosbie Appears On: "She's Gonna Go Away" /
B-Side
"Doing Nothing" is a very old song, dating
again from the Ballet Dancer era. It was one that
Robert never particularly liked; however a quick
rewrite of the verse, and tempo change, led to this recorded
version and B-Side. It features unusual percussion:
Robert stamps his foot while shaking a
tambourine, creating a charming and innovative sound;
very much in keeping with the spirit of "Ballet Dancer".
Written in 1993.

Crosbie:
Vocal, acoustic guitar, lead

On: "What I
Have To Do" / B-Side
A very old
song, from the "Ballet Dancer" era, and the B-Side of Lotus'
"debut" single. A gentle ballad, simply strummed with gentle
lead guitar embellishments, it fits in perfectly with the
style of the album and is another great B-Side. Written in
1993.

A cover of
Neil Young's classic "Harvest" song, this
version is close to the original, but replaces the original
harmonica line with a reverbed lead guitar and adds
some harmony vocals. The song is sung in Robert's low
regsiter which adds his own style to the proceedings. All in
all, deftly performed and arranged; a good b-side. Written
in n/a.

An enjoyable enough song, although not too
challenging. Fairly straight forward Lotus-rock, this is
similar to the type of song written around the time of the
"Lotus" album (1998). Written in
2001.
139. April Dusted Showers

Crosbie: Vocal, acoustic
guitars, electric guitars, bass,

View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie
Appears On: "Just Another
Universe"
Semi-instrumental, this new piece was inspired by the
release of Red House Painters' "Old Ramon" CD. However,
"April Dusted Showers" is not one of the more
RHP-sounding Lotus songs. It does drift dreamily but
forgoes the feedback soaked build-up for a fragile and
beautiful harmony guitar part. Indeed, the four-part guitars
are so central to this song that it was right to leave the
second half instrumental. The lyrics that are sung are
poetic and free-form; all in all a progressive Lotus
track. Written in
2001.

Back to album songs, and this is a great rocker,
reminiscent of "Lions", athough without the organ. Written
in the USA, it originally featured a raw, screamed vocal,
but restrictions in the studio meant Robert had to sing it
low. No matter, the song still packs a lot of punch; and the
guitars here soar their way throughout the track. Written in

View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears On:
"You & I" /
B-side
Oft-regarded as featuring the best
Lotus lyrics, "Bitter Pill" was tried out by the band in
1998 but taken no further. In reality, the song is best
suited to a vocals-and-guitar performance, so this is how
the final recorded version ended up. An urgent track, the
guitars pound their way through the chords in a measured
fashion, and give the song as much power as any band
arrangement would. Lyrically the song deals with death and
despair, and is thought provoking without being obtuse. For
a seemingly straight-forward B-side, this is one of the
deepest Lotus pieces. Written in
1998.
135. Here Again (Crosbie

You Know" /
B-side
Originally written
with a flute part, Robert was able to recreate this sound
using the mellotron, the instrument that played key
part in the arrangement of "Beautiful Day". This produces a
slightly odd sound, but the song itself is a beautiful
ballad based around simple chords and a doleful vocal.

View Studio Produced By: Robert Crosbie Appears On: "If I Could Fly" /
B-side
A
throw-away track, written on the spot in the studio. This
was never intended to be serious, but the results are quite
impressive. A charasmatically sloppy performance, an
exciting vocal and punchy electric guitar (with a 60's
feel) gives this song much charm. However it sounds too
much like "The Weight" by The Band to merit further
consideration! Written in 2001.
