Tada! To me, stuff like this is why rarities records exist. Ever since people first heard “Chiaroscuro” on Welcome to the Danger Show, they’ve asked me: “What’s that girl whispering?” If you’re one of the curious folks who would like to know, I’ve given you Kelli’s whisper track all alone. The whispers were J’s idea, in the moment, during Kelli’s backup vocal session at Record Plant. As far as I know, the lines are from a poem she’d been writing for me. I’m not sure that it ever reached completion, but it will always be buried under the violin solo of track #5 on my first album.
