Howard Jones - Hide And Seek (Remastered) HD

Howard Jones - Hide And Seek
from Human's Lib (1984) (2010 remastered)

Just a distant hum.

Lyrics:

There was a time when there was nothing at all

Nothing at all
Just a distant hum.
There was a being and he lived on his own
He had no one to talk to and nothing to do.
He drew up the plans
Learnt to work with his hands

A million years passed by and his work was done.
And his words where these:
Hope you find it in everything

Everything that you see

Hope you find it in everything

Everything that you see

Hope you find it
Hope you find it

Hope you find me in you.
So she had built her
Elaborate home with it's ups and
It's downs
It's rain and it's sun.
She decided that her work
It was done
Time to have fun

And found a game to play.
Then as part of the game

She completely forgot
Where she'd hidden herself
And she spent the rest of her time
Trying to find the parts.

Hope you find it in everything
Everything that you see
...
There was a time when there was nothing at all

Nothing at all
Just a distant hum.

Brilliant! Best thing he ever did. So much better than that guy dancing in plastic garden chains!!

[laineydavey]

I was a teenager at the time and it pretty much passed me by. Now, in my late 40s, I've just rediscovered it and it is so perfect! Thank you for uploading and adding the lyrics! <3 xxx

[PALACEKAV]

For me this is possibly the track that sowed the seed for The Orb etc & Ambient Dance as we now know it.

Hello cyber folks. I am a music theorist. I heard that this song actually came to Howard Jones in a dream. Can anyone help me validate this?

[timecowx]

Great song! Is that Red Rocks in the pic? Haven't been there in years, but that pic looks like it could have been taken there...
