Caroline Polachek wrote “I Believe” about immortality, dedicating it to her friend SOPHIE, who passed away late January of 2021. After their death, Polachek paid tribute to the legendary producer with a heartfelt post:
Thank you SOPHIE for inviting us to this world. For opening up space for new ide...
[Intro]
Look over the edge, but not too far
[Verse 1]
You're not alone
Under a sky of vultures
With all that could've been
You made it home
With silver string unbroken
Ain't that the sweetest gift?
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, little miracle, swing low
Where there can be no compromises down low
[Chorus]
I don't know, but I believe
We'll get another day together
Violent love, feel my embrace, oh
No, I don't know, but I believe
[Verse 2]
And I'd have said it was impossible
To find you in this life and keep you just enough
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, littlе miracle, swing low
Where thеre can be no compromises down low
[Chorus]
I don't know, but I believe
We'll get another day together
Violent love, feel my embrace, oh
No, I don't know, but I believe
[Bridge]
Look over the edge, but not too far
Look over the edge, but not too far
[Chorus]
I don't know, but I believe
We'll get another day together
Violent love, feel my embrace, oh
No, I don't know, but I believe
[Outro]
Violent love
Feel my embrace
Look over the edge, but not too far
But not too far

“I Believe” is about immortality. This song is dedicated to my friend and visionary artist SOPHIE. “Orchestra Hits” are a classic sound of early digital synths and sample banks. Because they’re so dramatic and so distinctly throwback it’s hard to use them unironically, but here Danny and I used them...
“I Believe” is a real dedication to a tone. I was in Italy midway through the pandemic and heard this song called “Ti sento” by Matia Bazar at a house party [in Rome] that blew my mind. It was the way she was singing that blew me away—that she was pushing her voice absolutely to the limit, and under...
SOPHIE’s like no other person I’ve ever met. She didn’t entirely seem human. She embodied so many wild contradictions — she could be so soft and so hard at once, and she could be so fast and so slow at once. Separately, while I was making this album, I was thinking a lot about the diva archetype and...
This song felt right to end the series on, because it’s about endlessness.
I’ve heard it said that all particles will eventually rearrange themselves such that we will live everything again, but my gut says time is more like a spiral: yes we do return, yes the curve is familiar, but the form is neve...
