Hidden Context

Oh, the delicious irony.

Because of course, a "hidden context" is the one thing that this track doesn't have. Or, come to that, a hidden meaning, which might have been a better name for the track anyway.

Well, the slight lack of meaning aside, there are some quite fun lyrics on Hidden Context, which in some ways echo a number of tracks off our first couple of tracks. And we definitely owe a debt to Sparks for some of the inspiration.

Certainly, the whole thing was thrown together very quickly (well, relatively speaking - we're probably talking weeks rather than the usual months or years!) It's tempting to wonder how it ended up on the album, but if nothing else it provides some light relief between Signs of Life and Perfect Geometry.
