The Altogether

The Altogether is Orbital's sixth studio album and was released in 2001. It features guest vocals by the Hartnolls' brother-in-law David Gray, a sampled Ian Dury, a sample from "Sober" by Tool and a version of the Doctor Who theme. It was Orbital's last studio album for FFRR and received a mixed critical reception. Describing the album shortly before it was released, Phil Hartnoll said, "Whereas Middle of Nowhere was written for a detached mood, for sitting in a field and listening to by yourself, The Altogether is for listening to at a party with your mates. That's what I take it to mean anyway. Paul thinks it's about not having any clothes on."As of 2001, it had sold 135,000 copies worldwide. As of 2004, the album had sold 58,000 copies in United States. more »

The way she left
She left us frozen with wide open faces
She left a swarm of cool friends in high places
And some would call it theft
The way she left
The way she left
She left us standing in a field with wet clothes
A campaign of seeds that no one else grows
Now everybody knows the meaning of bereft
I suppose it's in the way she left
So if you see me stumble down the road
Under the stars
Another break
I wonder how did all these lights go out
You're looking at a man
Who thought to take her hand
And run
Another blade the world persuaded
Not to pierce the doubt
I'm just like the rest of you
No worse than the best of you
The way she left
She left me scrubbing at these memories
She left a monster that spits locks and eats keys
It's madness or it's deft
The way she left
So if you see me stumble down the road
Under the stars
Another break
I wonder how did all these lights go out
You're looking at a man
Who thought to take her hand
And run
Another blade the world persuaded
Not to pierce the doubt
I'm just like the rest of you
No worse than the best of you
The way she left
It's black, white, or grey, but it's certainly blue
A certain feeling that maybe I should leave too
'Cause some would call it theft
The way she left
