Tame Impala Borderline (blood Orange Remix)

The two talented multi-instrumentalists have been deeply embedded behind the scenes in hip hop, with production and songwriting credits on projects by the likes of Kanye West, Travis Scott, and A$AP Rocky, in addition to leading successful projects of their own.

Hynes, who has worked with artists from Mariah Carey to FKA Twigs to Solange, has a particular talent for bringing artists into his world while still making it sound like them. He completely reworks the lead single from Tame Impala’s latest studio album to the point that it’s almost unrecognizable (but in a good way).

He slows its electro-inspired strut into a languid creep, with a clean guitar groove and smooth bassline to match. He infuses the track at points with sprawling pads from the Moog and Juno synthesizers, giving the song a wide space that was missing in the original.

Lyrics

[Intro: Kevin Parker]
Line, times, pain
Such strange love
Line, times, pain
Such strange love

[Verse 1: Kevin Parker]
Gone a little far
Gone a little far this time for something
How was I to know?
How was I to know this high came rushing?

[Chorus: Kevin Parker]
We’re on the borderline
Caught between the tides of pain and rapture
Possibly a sign
I’m gonna have the strangest night on Sunday

[Verse 2: Kevin Parker]
Go, there I go
Quite a show for a loner in L.A.​
Askin’ how I managed to end up in this place
And I couldn’t get away

[Chorus: Kevin Parker]
We’re on the borderline
Dangerously far and all forgiven
There’s gonna be a fight
Gonna be a price to pay on Monday
We’re on the borderline (On the borderline)
Caught between the tides of pain and rapture
Then I saw the time (Then I saw the time)
Watched it speedin’ by like a train, like a train

[Refrain]
Will I be known and loved?
Is there one that I trust?
Starting to sober up
Has it been long enough?
Will I be known and loved?
Little closer, close enough
I’m a loser, loosen up
Setting free, must be tough
Will I be known and loved?
Is there one that I trust?
If there’s room, room for doubt
As within, as without ya
Will I be so in love?
Any closer? Close enough
Shout out to what is done
R.I.P., here comes the Sun
Here comes the Sun
Ah, ah, ah

[Verse 3]
Gone a little far
Gone a little far this time with something
How could I have known?
How was I to know this high came rushing?
I said, “Come with me outside”
I need to clear my mind, this weight is crushing
Do you see the light, oh
Coming from their eyes? Oh no
And I couldn’t get away

[Chorus]
We’re on the borderline (Ooh)
Gets me every time, these close encounters
Just to know I can (Just to know I can)
Once again, I am alone

[Refrain]
Will I be known and loved?
Is there one that I trust?
Starting to sober up
Has it been long enough?
Will I be known and loved?
Little closer, close enough
I’m a loser, loosen up
Setting free, must be tough (I was fine without ya)
Will I be known and loved?
L.A. really messed me up
And it isn’t cut and dry
Conversation, well, I tried (I was fine without ya)
Will I be? Stay right here
Any closer? Bad idea
Shout out to what is done
R.I.P., here comes the sun (I was fine without ya)
Will I be known and loved?
Is there one that I trust?
Starting to sober up
Has it been long enough?
