this song goes well right before the song "Lights in the Sky". similar ambiance and theme (i.e. drowning). "Lights" seems to be Trent's response to "A Drowning".
- Unless Q, Trent, or HTDA confirm it, this shouldn't be mentioned in the article.--leo3375 21:43, 5 May 2010 (PDT)
- Just heard this for the 1st time and I got exactly that feeling.... it really is like a sister song to Lights. ~~
Vocals
Someone at NIN.com asked Q via Facebook why the vocals are so quiet and then posted her response verbatim. Think we should mention it in the article? --leo3375 22:14, 6 May 2010 (PDT)
- It's here but she's deleting the account soon. Quoted:
Q, the music to A Drowning is beautiful, and so are the vocals, but I feel the vocals were in a safe place. I was expecting you to bust out towards the end with all the violence and panic that a real drowning would entail. You made a drowning sound so peaceful. However, you are doing well, and it is still a song that I will listen to."
Q: "actually ... i sang like a broken woman. when i am really in a sad place i become very quiet, never violent... so for me, personally, i felt like i sang true to the song's emotions. how could i not? i wrote it. even when you are in a violent state of drowning no one hears you 'scream' because youre underwater and by then you lose all oxygen and power and cant make a sound. right?"
- Personally, I would add to the new HTDA questions article, although it wasn't part of the set - it's saved here now, so we can discuss without fear of it vanishing at any rate. sheepdean Try to speak as clearly as you can 23:47, 6 May 2010 (PDT)
- Screencap please and we can make a section on the questions page for other areas etc... plus it may work on this page under notes as we have TR's notes listed on some songs. -Malechite 07:47, 7 May 2010 (PDT)
- Not sure how I should edit it (leave in real names etc), so this is an unadulterated version, edit and upload to how you see fit? http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii117/sheepdean/mqt1.jpg sheepdean Try to speak as clearly as you can 09:22, 7 May 2010 (PDT)
- Someone could message the girl on Facebook asking for permission? You usually don't need to have the person added as a 'Friend' to send a private message. She's clearly a NIN/HTDA fan so probably wouldn't mind her name being shown... N0N_3NT1TY N0N_3NT1TY 14:17, 8 May 2010 (GMT)
