Phantom Anthills; Chad VanGaalen

An anonymous follower of this blog commented that there's another Chad's whistling song. This time it is from his third album called Soft Airplane from 2008.

Chad's record label SubPop gives us its analyse of the album: "recorded primarily on an old tape machine and a JVC ghetto blaster in Chad’s Calgary basement, Soft Airplane retains the handmade charm and singular character of his previous records, while incorporating new layers of sophistication and weight."

I'm having a lot of problems to upload songs to 4shared, so you can listen to and download "Phantom Anthills" clicking below.

There isn't music video, but I found on YouTube a stop motion short-film that made use of this song. The short was done by the user Alligator Lions. Enjoy it!

This tiny body is see-through
I caught it swimming inside of you
It might be trying to haunt you
It's bending down and it's lighter than air

Oh
But no one knows
Oh
But no one knows

It goes to sleep right beside you
Cute there as it swims through your hair
Could it be dreaming about you?
Could it be dreaming about you?

Oh
But no one knows
Oh
But no one knows
