America Lyrics

The sample in the song is an audio clip from the film 'Don't Look Now'

There's a couple, called Laura and John, who lost their daughter, Christine, when she drowned in an accident at her home.

The couple move to Italy where Laura meets two old women (they're sisters). One of the sisters is blind and claims to be able to make contact with Christine.

John refuses to believe this and believes Laura is beginning to lose her sanity.

The 'red mac' is what Christine was wearing when she drowned (it's a raincoat; not a computer -___-)
