about

After seven years of asceticism in the valley of Töss the Homestories (Gabriela Krapf and Ernst David Hangartner Krapf)
moved back to Winterthur, mainly because of the cultural life. Social contacts, children in the streets, endless tours through
museums. Drinking tea in gardens, concerts almost every evening and getting lost in the night with champagne and cocaine.

But then: retreat in the studio.
New song, everything light.
Trumpets shallow. Falsetto voice and deep synths.
The lyrics (except of one phrase) this time in english again.
And then there was Sevi Landolt (Klaus Johann Grobe) who desperately wanted to test his vibraphone. Or how he calls it „an Islandic
Vauprøfín System“ or „the Thunalesian Vurbaphùn“. And some keys…ah yes and the bongos. Uuuuh the bongos!

lyrics

Intuition

They say you better listen to your intuition
Hope it wont let you down (don't let you down)
It will do you good to watch your inner visions
Just don't let them get you down (get you down)

That day you didn't expect it
But it came down pouring
Right onto your doorway
Looking back and forth
Up and down the road
Lying on your porch

(And you try to remember each word that you said
Every glance that you might have given)
Now and then or in an absentminded way
Let's face it
You have to admit it
You didn't see it coming

They say you better listen to your intuition
Hope it wont let you down
It will do you good to watch your inner visions
Just don't let them get you down

Is it really any wonder that you are so confused
Supernatural powers you are about to lose

Just when you thought it was all dead and gone
Out of the blue it is written on the wall
It's true it came without a warning
Und wäge dem chunnsch nüme druus

(Hope it wont let you down)
Don't let them get you down
(Just don't let them get you down)
Just don't let them get you down
