Every other year, I listen to all of the music in my collection. Often, I discover new things about music I'm familiar with or learn new things about songs I'm not as familiar with. This is where I'll be documenting that.

The Zombies' "Indication"
The third (and final) thing I noticed while listening to the Zombies' The Decca Stereo Anthology is in the backing vocals in "Indication." For the last line of the verses, the backing vocals have a consist descent. For the first two verses, that melodic arc emphasizes the lyrics: "Tied down every day and every night" and "I won't be the one to settle down." Both have "down" in the line, and the melody descends.
