about

Sometimes is a song I wrote in 1993 before moving to Rio. At the time I was listening to a lot of what my friends and I called FM albums (these days AOR or Yacht Rock) - 70s stuff from Dr John, Michael Franks, Tony Joe White and of course, Steely Dan.

This was the first track we recorded at the February session at Namouche Studios and the song just worked, setting a tone for the whole album session.

This song features an old school long intro with a neat drone on electric sitar, played by Kassin, a latin style bass figure by Alberto Continentino and Pedrinho on Teischord vintage organ.

Drums, Macio Moretti from Mitch & Mitch and percussion the great Domenico Lancellotti, with swooping vocals by the uber talented Leticia Pedroza from Volupz.

lyrics

Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
I love you madly
But sometimes
I hate you like a fool

Sometimes
Sometimes I hate you madly
But sometimes I love you like a fool
Sometimes

Sometimes I wish your smile
Was less like a great white shark
Sometimes

Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes

Sometimes you're sweet as angels
But Sometimes you’re just too cruel
Sometimes

Sometimes I wish you had ten toes
Instead of those cloven hooves
Just sometimes

Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes

Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes

Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
Oh just sometimes
