Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse Present an Exercise in Swirling Melancholy Madness on "Everytime I'm with You"

A little less than a year ago - due to red tape and stormy legal fisticuffs-- the Danger Mouse, Sparklehorse and David Lynch collabo, Dark Night of the Soul was collecting dust on the EMI shelves. In May 2009, a 48-page book of stunningly strange photographs from revered director David Lynch was released bundled with a blank CD-R branded, "For Legal Reasons, enclosed CD-R contains no music. Use it as you will." Now the long-delayed, beautiful, sonic soundscapes have officially been released.

Filled to the gills with an all-star gathering of contributions from the likes of the Flaming Lips, Gruff Rhys, Julian Casablancas, Suzanne Vega, Black Francis, Iggy Pop, James Mercer, the late Vic Chesnutt and Nina Persson, this long player is a masterstroke of epic proportions. Of the 14 cuts, the track that hits us right in the rock ‘n roll stethoscope is the lovesick triumph, "Everytime I'm with You" by former Grandaddy frontman, Jason Lytle. This spooky, cosmic lullaby chillingly unspools, lulling the listener into the belly of the beast – an off-kiltered hypnotic carnival with swirling shadows and lyrical longing.

"Everytime I'm with You"
Written by: Danger Mouse, Mark Linkous and Jason Lytle

Every time I'm with you
I am drunk
And you are too

Well what the hell
Else are we
Supposed to do

Yeah every time
You come by
We get so trashed
And stay up all night

Well it's so wrong
But it's so right
Yeah, it's alright

Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
I'm with you
I guess it's true

Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
I'm with you
I guess it's true

And every time
I'm with you
I'm fucked up
And you are too

Well what the hell
Else are we
Supposed to do

Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
I'm with you
I guess it's true

Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
Every time, Every time
I'm with you
I guess it's true

Lyrics by Jason Lytle, Synthesizers and Wurlitzer by Danger Mouse, Bass, Electric Guitars and Optigan by Mark Linkous, Lead and Background Vocals, Electric Guitar and Synthesizer by Jason Lytle, Drums by Steve Nistor, Additional Engineering by Jason Lytle.
