Tim Fatchen Says: From 50 songs in 90 days (50/90) 2012. fiftyninety.fawmers.org/songs/16673

I knew nothing about this collab with Rittmo' (and Barbara) until it was sprung on me. My comments were: "Oh wow. oh wow oh wow. (I knew nothing about this!) rittmo' and Barbara, this has just lifted to another level!"

Barbara Roughton said "He was full of delight and anticipation over the prospect of surprising you that day, Tim, and it was a little bit of a stretch for me to play along with not asking your permission first. I was so nervous that you might feel we'd trampled over your composition. In the end, I'm so proud that I got to play at his direction, and in his generous space, and I feel we made something lovely together, we three, though you were in the dark for that short amount of time. I will miss the surprises that came from tapping into him."

Rittmo's liner notes:
Drift along with us :)

LYRICS:

DRIFTING THROUGH TIMELINES:

I'm drifting through timelines
and I have no idea where I'm going next
I'll let the wind decide my fate
find which wave is best

I'm drifting through timelines
I'm drifting through timelines
drifting, drifting, through timelines

my attitude is long and lateral
the open sea is so theatrical
I'm on my spot, feeling so natural
yet nothing makes sense, nothing is practical

I'm drifting through timelines
I'm drifting through timelines
drifting, drifting, through timelines

but in the vast emptiness
everything does make sense
the future mimes what's left behind

I'm drifting through timelines
I'm drifting through timelines
drifting, drifting, through timelines

history is always in motion
floating, floating, floating

I'm drifting through timelines
I'm drifting through timelines
drifting, drifting, through timelines

rittmo'
