Contact Redux (feat. Meredith Hagan) We've been here so long Still I remember The rainy September Contact Two, four, one, ten Two, four, one, ten Am I transmitting Is anyone listening? Contact We are green and gray The longness of semper Still I remember Contact Two, four, one, ten Two, four, one, ten Am I still willing To foot all this billing? Contact Riding on our shiny metal horses Singing a rider's song One of us will be forgotten The other will be wrong Two, four, one, ten Two, four, one, ten Am I transmitting Is anyone listening? Contact When I think of you Your name's in the sky Ninety feet high Contact Riding on our shiny metal horses Singing a rider's song One of us will be forgotten The other will be wrong Two, four, one, ten Two, four, one, ten Am I still willing To foot all this billing?

This song is from the album You Were There. Nico: this tune is heard during the rolling credits. This acoustic treatment of Contact was arranged by Meredith Hagan, and augmented with the band's "pocket symphony orchestra," Christine Wu, who arranged, performed, and recorded the strings. J.C. Leveque played the mournful banjo part in a clawhammer style, and Peter Irvine added the final touch with some tasteful bodhran, an Irish frame drum. If this song ever gets huge, we're buying J.C. a Porsche with a bumper sticker that says "This is the banjo player's Porsche." Credits:
