Deoxyribonucleic acid
Entwines
Divides
The vital spark
A new life
A new life begins

So it goes
A new life
A new life
And it grows
This new life
this new life

All the building blocks of being
Are put in place at random
Is it destiny or fate
Nature or nurture
Nurture or nature
So it goes
A new life
A new life
And it grows
This new life
this new life


Break for guitar 2.37 to 3.06 approx.

How can something so beautiful
Just happen
Like magic
Just one moment in time and space
Just one moment
Right here
Right now


updated with slightly tweaked version so subtle you wont know the difference

[T.C. Elliott]

I love the active rhythm.. it really drives the song forward. The vocals are great, there's enough tension to keep it driving, but enough smoothness and held notes to keep it flowing nicely. The lead guitar is an extra nice touch.

[trev]

Love the 80's vibe on it and it sounds very contemporary - this just sounds like it could be a hit.

nice production too.

Hi, like this a lot. I'm a sucker for synths and this this is played and produced with all the top quality I've come to expect from the LHT's...........Willie

[flyon90]

Great song, the lead guitar added a cool vibe.

[Gritter]

This is a super cruisin' retro 80's rocker...awesome stuff. Totally cool.

[Krasi]

I love this!!! Groove rhythm with excellent vocals. ORH has long become a trade mark for beautiful music and with Geir on guitar I knew there is another great song coming. This really feels a  hit. A little U2 resemblance also.

Straight out of the early eighties, like Simple Minds but with a contemporary twist. I love how this rattles along with a choppy intensity. Another top-drawer vocal from James, and a superb (and tasteful) solo from the G-man. Nothing not to like, just a great hit-sounding song.

[chapperz66]

Oh yes indeedy!  Great song and brilliantly recorded/mixed/produced etc.  Especially love the ethnic sounding "fiddle" bit at the start.  I've already listened to this twice but I think I'll do it again in a mo.
