Willy Mason - Oxygen (2004)

From his album Where the humans eat. It’s in the playlist I listen every night before going to sleep.

We can be stronger than bombs
If you’re singing along and you know that you really believe
We can be richer than industry
As long as we know that there’s things that we don’t really need
We can speak louder than ignorance
Cause we speak in silence every time our eyes meet.

Willy Mason about his recording technique (found on Wikipedia) :

I made a rule that we couldn’t record any of the songs in more than three takes. It allows you to make mistakes and accept those mistakes. Listening back, sometimes the wrong notes are the best parts of the song, the imperfections are what keeps it spontaneous and live-feeling.
