Hi there
I just bought the DVD "Letters from a porcupine" (awesome by the way) and I wondered what kind of song Shannon sings right at the end of the DVD just before the information is seen about that Nico was born and so on. The song sounds like some kind of a childrens song...a lulleby or something? anybody here who knows this song?

In the end of the DVD you can heard the song "New Life" taken from the second wonderful album "Soup". Shannon wrote this song for his beautiful baby girl Nico Blue Hoon. If you have not the Soup album yet I recommend you to run in the first record store and to buy a copy, because you must have it, trust me Soup it's a great album you should have you own copy.

Hi Marika
No,not this one,I know "New life" very well and love it. I meant the one,Shannon is singing live at the end of the show,before "new life" is played... But thanks anyway for your reply...

I think maybe your are referring to the song at the end of Letters where Shannon is just mouthing the words? If that's the case, then the song is *After Hours*....shannon was a huge Velvet Underground fan... here's a link...cheers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Velvet_Underground

This is the song, I love the way he sang it
One, two, three If you close the door The night could last forever Leave the sunshine out And say hello to never
All the people are dancing And theyre having such fun I wish it could happen to me
But if you close the door Id never have to see the day again
If you close the door The night could last forever Leave the wine-glass out And drink a toast to never
Oh, someday I know Someone will look into my eyes And say hello Youre my very special one
But if you close the door Id never have to see the day again
Dark party bars, shiny cadillac cars And the people on subways and trains Looking gray in the rain, as they stand disarrayed Oh, but people look well in the dark
And if you close the door The night could last forever Leave the sunshine out And say hello to never All the people are dancing And theyre having such fun I wish it could happen to me
Cause if you close the door Id never have to see the day again Id never have to see the day again, once more Id never have to see the day again
