Story Behind The Song
Massive paranoia
Song Description
Easily the meanest of tracks on the "Doctor's work" CD, "Number One" is made up of a cut and dry guitar riff that melds with a relentlessly winding keyboard line as the drums punch in the anxiety of the minimal vocals. What might be considered the chorus opens wide and eventually gives into a delicate backwards piano. Each of the 5 lines of lyrics serves to tightly frame and employ the intensity of the rest of the song.
