Go to Bed (feat. Minimall) is a song by Joe Hawley. The song begins with a simple melody but often branches off and then again returns to its "roots", if you will. Much of the song uses parts from the pre-Tally Hall song Break It Down, performed by Joe's 2003 comedy troupe anonyMous and later Tally Hall in 2006.
A version of Go to Bed titled 'Minimall Karaoke Edition' was uploaded to Joe Hawley's YouTube on January 29th, 2018.[1] And on the same day, a video of the "Wonka Vox" was also uploaded[2]
Trivia
- Go to Bed is partly sung by the band Minimall, who were originally a Tally Hall cover band named "Titty Hall".
- The reversed bits at the end of the song include a metallic-sounding voice reading a bit from "Good Night, Moon" and part of a melody from earlier in the song.
- The song samples "Christmas is Coming" by the Vince Guaraldi Trio, Borodin - Polevitzian Dance by Les Baxter, as well as an unidentified version of Gliding Dance of the Maidens (also known as Stranger In Paradise) by Alexander Borodin.
- In sections of the song part of the beat comes from the Casio Vl-tone’s (a toy keyboard/calculator from the 80’s) rhythm section. More specifically, the song uses the beat “Rock 1”.
