Obsessed with this song right now. It’s equal parts sad, whimsical, and scary. Found a sweet review here that describes the song, and Antony’s vocals, perfectly. Could this be limerence’s theme song?
“A love duet, let’s say, for viola and tape. But the title, Keep in Touch – these are words of parting; it’s a long-distance romance at best, the taped vocals and the viola not so much keeping each other company as mirroring each other’s isolation…Nico explains that he intended the piece to be the exploration of an awkward “in-betweenness” shared by Antony’s voice and that of the viola, and every dimension of Keep in Touch emphasizes the strangeness of these two androgynous instruments.
