about

Dave Frishberg writes witty, comic lyrics and detail-oriented, Tom Lehrer-esque novelty songs, but “You are There” is maybe an uncharacteristically un-ironic Frishberg lyric, and inevitably reminds performers and listeners alike of a lost relationship or a remembrance of a loved one who has died. The setting here lightens the mood a bit, I think. It’s like a Bacharach shuffle, complete with Thaddeus’s wistful harmonica, so it feels less like a funeral and more like what the Brazilians call saudade, where you miss someone or someplace but you are happy because you have happy memories. This also sounds like L.A., film premieres with skylights, limos pulling up to the theatre, martinis.
