about
A friend of mine wrote most of the words for this song shortly after his grandmother died. I was affected by the tone, and set his words to this music I had already put together. Little did I know I would feel its impact again when my own grandmother passed.
lyrics
Hypocrites
I wanted to show you
That I really loved you so
But you had to go, and I'm not crying
Today, 'cause I know you're smiling
You were the best
And still you shine
Deep inside
Deep in pride
Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies
Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies
The hypocrites came
And the love was on their faces
Just to think they were here
Because of you
I wanted to tell you
That I really loved you so
But you had to go away
And I'm not crying
Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies
Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies
The hypocrites came
And the love was on their faces
Just to think they were here
Because of you
I wanted to tell you
That I really loved you so
And still you shine
Deep inside
Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies
Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies
Claude S. / Nelson Torres (1990)

With faces full of promises and words full of lies
Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies
The hypocrites came

Just to think they were here
Because of you
I wanted to tell you
That I really loved you so

Hypocrites, we are hypocrites
With faces full of promises and words full of lies

Whatever you think you know about 'synthpop' throw it out your window. Synthpop here is an art movement, a dadaist version. For people. Maybe someone like you. We like you. You're still reading this? OK. Be careful, time displacements have been known to occur in this construct. Are you still reading this? Good. You are worthy. ... more

Cause & Effect - Deluxe Edition
by Cause and Effectsupported by 23 fans who also own “Hypocrites”
I remember the first time I heard "You Think You Know Her" on the radio, and thinking it was a new song by Depeche Mode! Then in 1993, I found the CD in the discount bin at Camelot Music, only because it was re-released on a different label with the title "Another Minute" so I kind of lucked out. Still one of my favorites to this day, there isn't a track that I skip, which says a lot. The extra tracks on this deluxe edition are equally good but missing "You Think You Know Her (Unfaithful Mix)".

SO thrilled to support Numbers by buying this compilation.
go to album -
This duo's eclectic album swoons with melancholic synth n'guitar, and surprises with dub tinged experimental production.

Deleted Scenes
by Standish/CarlyonCalculated, sleek and moody, dub-influenced noirish tunes that occasionally sparkle as something poppy.
