about

"HAND AND GLOVE" tells the tale of how my 1970 high school girlfriend Debbie and I got back together in 2014. Appropriately, it has a 1970 style first half and a 2014 style second half with a brief electronic time warp in between. Jessica Zoric from the prominent Pittsburgh band The Molecule Party provides the vocals for Debbie, as Debbie died on March 5, 2021.

Synthesizer: Korg KRONOS 2-88.

lyrics

"HAND AND GLOVE"

[Todd:]
I see you walking on the fairgrounds,
Dark hair flowing in the summer sun.
[Debbie:]
I see your ride spinning around,
I say hello when it's finally done!

[Todd:] I am the hand! You are the glove!
[Debbie:] You are the hand! I am the glove!

[Todd & Debbie together:]
Psychedelic Saturdays
At the radio station!
Staying out late after the prom!
Picnics in the Waynesburg woods!

[Debbie:]
I kiss you with heartbreaking passion
As tears well in both of my eyes.
[Todd:]
The lonely bus to San Francisco
Provides a most painful goodbye!

[Todd:] I am the hand! You are the glove!
[Debbie:] You are the hand! I am the glove!

[TIME WARP: Four decades go by!]

[Todd:]
As I recover from heart surgery,
My caregiver turns out to be your son.
[Debbie:]
All it takes is one dinner together,
And our exciting new life has begun.

[Todd:] I am the hand! You are the glove!
[Debbie:] You are the hand! I am the glove!

[Todd & Debbie together:]
We may differ dangerously
On politics and religion,
But we don't differ on love!
No, we don't differ on love!

[Todd:]
I'm amazed at our intense chemistry
Every time you walk through the door.
[Debbie:]
I can't wait to embrace you
And do so very much, much more!

[Todd:] I am the hand! You are the glove!
[Debbie:] You are the hand! I am the glove!
