Overview
Strung by the Tongue explores the tension and misunderstanding that can arise between two people in a relationship when the right words fail to appear at the moment they are needed most. The song reflects on how miscommunication can quietly grow, leaving emotions unresolved and intentions misread.
Chris introduces the original melody, while a newly written melodic line, primarily performed by Jenn, brings a fresh perspective to the song’s evolving dialogue. Colette adds another layer by translating and speaking sections of the lyrics in French before and during the song, subtly reinforcing the theme of miscommunication between voices and languages.
Glyn contributes the memorable repeating guitar motif that shapes the track’s distinctive character, transforming it into a Fleetwood Mac inspired rocker. Additional atmospheric guitar pads and expressive licks enrich the arrangement, adding texture, movement and musical depth.
