Steven Wilson - Drown With Me (The Future Bites Sessions)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- The third song from The Future Bites sessions is Drown With Me, performed with a drum machine, piano, and 2 acoustic guitars (one Nashville strung). Written in 2001, a version of the song was recorded the following year by Porcupine Tree during the In Absentia sessions, but this session version is based on the original demo which has a different chorus. I'm not sure why I changed it at the time because in retrospect I like this chorus better. Both the original demo and the Porcupine Tree recording of the song are included on the recently issued deluxe edition of In Absentia, so you can listen and make up your own mind which is best!

Lyrics:
So you have been of use
And you have been abused
You know you look pale today
Your lipstick has gone astray
You sold out and lost your looks
You gave away all your books
(You should drown with me)
Your coil has been wound up tight
Unwind it with me tonight
(You should drown with me)
Cleaning the windows and cleaning the floors
Little homemaker, you lawn raker, love maker, rest your bones
Swim in these eyes that are black from the fight
Little housekeeper, you big sleeper, grim reaper, let it go
Orange filter sky
You're drowning in family there
When will you come up for air?
(You should drown with mе)
Your coil has been wound up tight
Unwind it with me tonight
(You should drown with me)
Cleaning thе windows and cleaning the floors
Little homemaker, you lawn raker, love maker, rest your bones
Swim in these eyes that are black from the fight
Little housekeeper, you big sleeper, grim reaper, let it go
Orange filter sky
Hope to see you live again in Vancouver. Thank you for sharing this with us, incredible.
Damn
Thanks for the lyrics
wow, it is such a bizzare feeling to hear a well familiar song with a different chorus! Like it
Greeting from Moscow!
Thank you Mr. Wilson. Like Oliver Twist once said, 'more please!'
Porcupine tree 😭😭 what a incredible project
Mr Bungle' self-titled profile pic in a SW vídeo... Puedo ser tu amigo?
@@BTBAM819 mr bungle y porcupine tree. Rara combinación pero me encanta jajaja no me imaginé que alguna vez alguien me respondería y conociera las dos bandas
@@emilianooviedo270 Y encima latino!! Tenes buen gusto! Mr Bungle es uno de mis discos favoritos y PT es de mis bandas favoritas!
👍
Latinos unidos por SW y PT? Anotenme!
Best songwriter of all time.. criminally underrated in the world =[
Agreed
Still amazed 18 years later this didn't end up 'A-side' on In Absentia.
Tell me about it. It’s such a gorgeous song, especially the harmonies 😍
True. But everytime I listen to In Absentia, I also listen to this song.
Yeah, and it may not have ever been made public if it wasn’t for me. Here’s the backstory:
Someone shared a private copy of a demo CD I let them borrow that I had got from some people who worked at a video editing studio. The lady I met first from the group happened by a chance meeting while getting a haircut earlier that day and when she told me she was going to a PT concert that evening I was like “you know who they are?!?” So I had met her earlier the same day that her group and myself attended the L.A. House of Blues IA concert (to which I got 2 free tix to from Andy Leff, and brought along a date with me).
Now, I have no clue what fucking fool fashioned the name of the demo CD “Out Absentia” (which obviously stuck) and doesn’t even make sense.
On MY physical CD-R (which btw were lossless CD-DA files; not the mp3 files someone put online and then later someone upsampled them and claimed they were lossless, but I’m the only one with the true lossless files) the video editing people had just written “PT In Absentia demos” on it and they never told me how they got the demos, and a month after we met we drifted apart.
Steven got so pissed off at me for this fiasco (even though I still won an online .GIF making contest for PT, and they sent me like 13 CDs including one I never opened as I had another, the last of the original “Recordings” CD never to be unwrapped which were supposed to be a limited edition run of 25,000 and never re-issued, and also an IA single signed by the band) he had a “street posse” guy show up at my work and hand someone there a tube with one poster in it and full of confetti which went everywhere, but the douchebag didn’t wait for me or I would have beat his ass on the floor of my shop, so I’m not very fond of SW or his Street Team as people but I’ve let sleeping dogs lie and don’t care anymore - and he STILL won’t let me post on his Facebook page after all these years! It was 20 years ago! I’m 42 now, you’re an old man, just get the fuck over it, Steven!
I love SW as an artist (although I have no clue what TFB will do for his career and how ironic it is that the 4 B-Sides tracks are the only GOOD ONES; same with FOABP - Nil Recurring, the B-Sides to it were so much better). His solo album Hand.Cannot.Erase was, in my opinion, his solo Magnum Opus. Porcupine Tree had many! Signify, In Absentia, and Deadwing were the three best albums that came out of PT.
So that’s the story for those who don’t know the truth behind the IA B-Sides release.
How I love this song! Older chorus is poetically beautiful but the new chorus made the song compact more than older chorus. I love both versions!
The final version's chorus has a more beautiful melody.
technically this is the older chorus as it was on the demo version
Yeah, they both work well, I think I prefer the darkness of the released version and the melody of the demo version.
Tilberg live version is my go-to version and the same with Normal and Dark Matter.
One thing I really like about Steven is is he doesn't abandon his old music. It annoys me sometimes when artists complain when fans want them to play their older songs.
One of my all time favorites from PT. It was fantastic to hear this stripped down. Thanks for making my day!
I think I have watched this about 20 times at least. It’s a beautiful song. Porcupine Tree is so infectious. I am so glad to be able to share your music with my kids. Do more of these
Oh same here! I’ve always loved Drown With Me, and now that I’ve heard this original demo version included in the In Absentia Remastered deluxe edition. &?3 got to say I agree with Steven, the original chorus is even better than the one I’m more familiar with!
Thanks so much Steven, for all these “The Future Bites” Sessions, and keep em coming! 😍
^”I’ve got to say”...damn phone typing lol, why can I not edit a YT comment??
One of those songs that sounds really simple... until you get to look inside the creative process, and realize how complex and masterful it truly is! That's easily my favorite part of The Future Bites Sessions-I appreciate everything so much more
never knew there was a different chorus, gonna have to check that out
He just added it for this project
@@frankieray2873 It's actually from the demo version.
@@varg_ar I thought I heard the demo before. Can you tell me which album it's on?
@@frankieray2873 the new in absentia box set, there's a channel here on youtube that uploaded the version with this chorus. Look it up, that's the demo
@@Sebastian_ignasi0 Gotcha. Thanks
That is perhaps one of the finest songs ever. For me, it’s up there with High Hopes by Pink Floyd and Afraid of Sunlight by Marillion.
I'm so jealous of the studio. What I wouldn't give just to play for a couple hours in there!
Man what I wouldn’t give just to be a fly on the wall there.
You sell your soul to me ill get you in there
After listening to this version, we really need you to play any song that you like , but a version of it that was never released anywhere so that it will always remain special to these sessions. Anything from old demo versions to even scratch lyrics. It's the only way we can ever get close to you Steven!
Great idea and a way to see ideas that didn’t make it to the records 😍 I record many Porcupine Tree covers with emphasis on getting a good vibe/sound, would love if you checked some out :)
Thankfully (and this might have been the case when you made the comment) this version of Drown With Me is a part of the Deluxe edition re-release of In Absentia.
I love this song
I loved this version!
Humble requests:
Time Flies
Harmony Korine
First Regret / 3 Years Older
I would be happy with ANYTHING off The Incident and Insurgentes 💕👌
Yes all of this
Yeah really Time Flies would be great!
Time flies and I drive the hearse (the best one from "the incident" for me)
@@warpeeed To me is Time Flies and Blind House (and I drive the hearse in third) but the album shines when you listen everything together!
Great to hear the barefooted genius again!
Another interesting stripped down version that sounds phenomenal 😍 I record many Porcupine Tree covers with emphasis on getting a good vibe/sound, would love if you checked some out :)
One of the best B side songs PT has. And the best Bside song for me.
In Absentia is such a Masterpiece that even the "bonus songs" Drown With Me, Chloroform and Meantime are stunning.
@@stefanotrida Meantime is a hidden gem for sure.
These sessions are an amazing idea!!! Keep them coming!!!!
If he could publish them in Spotify it would be fantastic!
These videos make me cry every time. Porcupine Tree has helped me through so much of my life, the bad and the good, and it's so amazing getting to some of those songs recorded again 💕
Una de mis favoritas de Porcupine!!
De las mías también pero está nueva versión no me gustó más que todo por lo de la letra que agregó. :(
@@bayartalks Estoy igual, está versión no me gusto
What a beautiful rendition of this one. One of my favourite PT tunes ever written.

I think even he misses the good "old" stuff
great memories!!! 🎶🎶🎶
Absolutely beautiful. Even my one year old grandson stopped what he was doing and watched the entire video (and has watched it repetitively since). Such talent Mr Wilson, I admire every inch of your talent. ❤️👍
It's hard to be humble when you're a genius.
Steven, I'm always in awe of your talent and passion! Unbelievable! I love you so much! There's not a day i dont listen to your music X
OH MY GOD!!! He proves a good quality is not enough when you have soul do improve all the good ...
Steven Wilson, GOD!
El mismo Steven Wilson de siempre, melancólico y semitonado, la gente puede mejorar o empeorar pero el alma jamás cambiará.
I still don't understand why this beautiful song was a B-side outtake on In Absentia record. I sincerely hope Steven's next solo album will feature more elegant compositions such as this.
Spectacular.
Future Bite Session .... something special in this Times .... Take care
Porcupine or not , what anawesome song indeed🎉
I.CANNOT.WAIT
Steven Wilson is an incredible project from PT haha
Bet he would find that a little offensive.

@@highrise3924 I think he has enough sense of humor to tolerate that ;)
This is the song I stumbled upon years ago that introduced me to Porcupine Tree and the wonderful talent of Steven Wilson. I’ve been in musical euphoria ever since. Thanks for this rendition of the song!

One of the most talented people, fantastic
This is one of the very best PT tracks!
Un ragazzo che canta e suona a piedi scalzi, è il Top!
This. Does. Not. Get. Old
Porcupine tree again , I think I’m gonna faint right now ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bring back Porcupine Tree, Steven. We need it, desperately.
Please play Where we would be! 🙏🙏🙏. You are amazing Steven, thanks for your music.
This is how DADS make music, and I’m loving it!

Finally I get to hear the live (demo) version of Drown with me ❤️
One man fits all .... the known he knows!
Thanks so much, fabulous music, good time for you
Je l'adore celle-là. Je l'écoute souvent. Merci à vous.
The Porcupine Tree version has been my wake up tune for at least a decade. I love it!
One of the happier sounding sounds till u dig into the lyrics - brilliant stuff😍 I record many Porcupine Tree covers with emphasis on getting a good vibe/sound, would love if you checked some out :)
Well done Mr Wilson 👌🎶 classic
WOW! Thanks, Superb!
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
One of the few of his songs that the studio version is better than any live performances I've heard.
Maan! I LOVE IT SO MUCH! There is a variation in the Chorus that makes it so Unique! A pleasure to hear your new music!
I know I’m late but the chorus in this version was from a demo that he had in the song before not putting it on in absentia
I keep watching this 😀
One of the best In Absentia songs. Back in 2002 it was worth having the deluxe edition just because of this song :)
Well maybe sometime in the next 5 years if things can get back to normal maybe we have a Porcupine Tree Reunion Tour. Would be great for people like me who somehow missed out on them. I can only dream that it will happen.
La melancolia de las canciones. Como dejar de escuchar tu musica weon.
Didn't expect that twist. LIKE IT
Finally the Steven I missed is back ❤️😘
MOAR!!!!! Encore.
wow, this is a real gem
I loooooove Drown With Me! Thank you for my birthday 🥳 present, Steven!! 💝

Porcupine tree tracks are legendary 🔥🤘🏻👏🏻
My favourite so far!!!!
Wow, completely different dimension of song!
I love this song so much
I listen to this version almost every day.
wow this version of drown with me, just wow
More than this great job SW. You have really fans in Mexico please don't forget it.
This is still my favourite version of my favourite SW song.
Thank you Steven for leaving these incredible versions up on YT - but I'd be more than happy to buy a high quality release on physical media, rather than the YT lossy audio.
im drowning, im floating on the surface between the sea and the clouds. thanks to You SW

Another SWilson influencee here 😍 I record many Porcupine Tree covers with emphasis on getting a good vibe/sound, would love if you checked some out :)
One word. Legend!
The harmonies in the chorus on the album version of "In Absentia" are what made me fall in love with the song. I thought they were brilliant. Sorry Steven i prefer the other version.
😉
Beautiful gift!!!! 😘
Hell yeah🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 KEEP THEM COMING!!!!!!!!
Steven you're a one man band.. Absolutely incredible🤘
Now THAT IS a nice studio
I have to say I prefer this demo version of the chorus too. A nice little take on the song.
Suas músicas são um retrato de você mesmo.
Letras reflexivas, lindas e profundas.
Já chorei muito com as músicas do SW

Wonderful session. Thanx for sharing.
oil that Ovation fret board! Solid SW song, thanks for sharing it with us. Gives us or at least me, something to look forward to these things during this catatonic state that Covid has caused.
Great song...greetings from Chile
