Difference between revisions of "Black People White People"

Black People White People was first rehearsed by [[Tally Hall]] during a rehearsal period for [[Good & Evil]] in 2009 at Danbro Studios.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwawPq5X61o Black People White People (Tally Hall Rehearsal) ((AUDIO))] ''YouTube.''</ref> A YouTube clip only features the first verse up to the first "What the fuck?", but may have more to it that was cut out. At some point Joe also recorded a solo demo and later uploaded it to YouTube.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yyzl2gZPdgk Black People White People (Demo) ((AUDIO))] ''YouTube.''</ref> The demo is a bit longer than the Tally Hall rehearsal and has vocals that are pitched up and down against a simple synth, bass, and drum backing track. Each "What the fuck" in this demo is extremely pitched up, similarly to what was done for the final song.

The song samples 'The Little Ships' by Jean-Jacques Perrey, 'L’École Buissonnière' by Jean Constantin, and 'Clarão da Lua' by Gerd,<ref>[[Joe Hawley]].

* Black People White People is very similar to [[&]] from Good & Evil lyrically, both being about duality. This may mean it inspired &, or vice versa.
