Yes Muusers, it’s time for another addition in the ongoing saga known as the transcription of Röyksopp‘s entire album, Junior.
Today’s mission: “This Must Be It,” the frantic, blaring electro-brooder fronted by Karin Dreijer.
As always, this is a collaborative effort. Though I think I’ve got most of it (along with some help by my good friend Faisal over at Ohh! Crapp…), there are still some words that have simply escaped me. Please feel free to add your comments and lend me your most eager, Swede-ready ears in completing these lyrics!

Waiting for a beam to break through here,
A chain wave vision all bright and clear,
And they talk, and they dance.
I was expecting something pure with golden hair,
Arms full of bracelets, and smoke and mirror,
And they talk, and they dance.
Here comes darkness just after noon,
Waiting for a sign,
If I survive, I’ll worship the moon
Or something, anything…
This must be it…longful bliss,
First it was so quiet, now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked, and they danced.
Two moments collide in my open hand,
making me a viewer (voyeur?)
I am what I (?)
And they talk, and they dance
Your hand on my head, speak friendly to me
I’ve been starving for years, patiently
Is this as far as you can take me?
This must be it…longful bliss,
First it was so quiet, now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked, and they danced.
This must be it…longful bliss,
First it was so quiet, now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked, and they danced.
This must be it…longful bliss,
First it was so quiet, now I know I’m not alone in here
This must be it…longful bliss,
First it was so quiet, now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked, and they danced.
