Crazier CD2 --- The second version of the 'Crazier' single turned out to be a Rico dominated disk kicking off with a Rico remix of the 'Crazier' entitled the 'Slide Mix' which toned down Steve Osbourne's single mix and brought the track back closer to the original album mix. Throwing in some spaced and buzzing electronics and some Rico backing vocals. This mix may have lacked the "punch" of the CD1 version but fan's of Rico wouldn't have been dissapointed as it was definately his own take on the track (this was however NOT the version that later appreared on Rico's album). Up next was a track written by Rico with both Rico and Numan on vocals called 'Big Black Sea' (this would later appear on Rico's album, remixed and with Numan's vocal replaced by Rico's own) which followed Rico's trademark edgy electronic industrial rock sound. The dark and at times anthemic track saw Rico and Numan successfully trade vocal's off each other like some kind of twisted and electronic version of Linkin Park. 
The third track was 'Garden Man' which did not feature Numan and again showcased Rico's undeniable talent. More trademark Rico sounds here continuing the overall feel of this second disk. This track also ended up on Rico's album in a new remixed state. Also featured was Live Arte TV Footage of 'Crazier' being performed in front of a live audience.

Crazier CD3 --- The third and final version of the single began with an entertainingly different 'Acoustic Glide Mix' of 'Crazier'. Although once again this version lacked the "up front" anthemic sound of the Steve Osbourne remix, it did manage to successfully deliver a very different take on the single and with its acoustic strumming and string arangement allowed the song to drift off into an almost Nine Inch Nails-esque sound almost mirroring some of the moments from the bands' two latest offerings 'And All That Could Have Been' and 'Still'...the almost "unplugged" sound here being pulled off rather successfully. Following this was an earlier version of 'Ancients' which , despite lacking the polished finish of the 'Hybrid' album version, did show an interesting insight into the raw ideas and process on the way towards the eventual outcome. The final track was the 'Arte Live TV Mix' of 'A Prayer For The Unborn' which was also included as live footage on the disk and was recorded before the same audience as 'Crazier' on CD2. 

Overall a highly successful and thoroughly entertaining package. 

Crazier

The more I take a look inside, the more I'm fried
The more I understand the ride, the more I slide 
The more you put me back in line, the more I tried
The more you looked into my eyes, the more you lied

I come back crazier, but feel much better
You come back crazier, you'll feel better

The more I disregard the signs, the more I fly
The more I walk across the lines, the more I glide

You come back crazier, but feel much better
You come back crazier, you'll feel better

You come back crazier, but feel much better
You come back crazier, you'll feel better

Listen To My Voice

Listen to my voice
And please try to understand
The one you call Messiah is a lie 

You are not the plan
And you're begining to annoy
You are just a game and it has won 

You will never see
The places promised by your faith
You will never know eternal peace 

The God you love is gone
He lies broken by your shame
The thing that took his place already dies 

It will send angels
Send black angels for you 

I am just a voice
That no-one else will hear
Only you are pure enough for truth 

You must write 'The Book'
And then tear away belief
Only you can save the light of man 

It will send angels
Send black angels for you 

Ancients

Some can shine
Some can fly
Some are glorious
Some are ancient

Some are wise
Some are strong
Some are everything
You could dream of

Some are clouds
Some are rain
Float like angel wings
On the ocean

Some can sing
Songs of gods
Words so beautiful
They fall like raindrops

But none are like me
All I know is you're not with me
Like me

Some will cry
Cry for you
Take your pain away
While you're sleeping

Some will die
In your name
Give their soul to you
For safe keeping

Big Black Sea 


I left a rose at the bottom of the big, black sea
For you
From me

I haven't uttered a sound since you set me free
I wish I was you
and you felt like me

Outside connection's breaking down
Internal wiring's burning out

The clouds all think that I can't see
This is for you 
from me

She said: 'tell me all your secrets, fantasies and fears;
Let me see the polaroids: the people you hold dear.'
Trapped in tunnel vision, in monophonic sound
She says she loves you
she loves you
then it all falls down

echoes in the bedroom 
rejection's on the walls 
Translations of the letters:
forever's not at all
Trapped in tunnel vision
and monophonic sound
she loves you
she loves you
then it all falls down

Outside connections are breaking down
Internal wiring's burning out
The clouds all think that I can't see.
I wish I was you
Instead of me

I left a rose at the bottom of the big black sea.
I did it for you.
from me.
I haven't uttered a sound since you set me free
I wish I was you
and you felt like me

Outside connection's breaking down
All internal wiring's burning out
I dive down towards the big black sea
this isn't for you
this one's for me

This time it's all for me
And this time it's all for me

(she loves you, she loves you then it all falls down)

A Prayer For The Unborn

So, I prayed
But you weren't listening
Making miracles? 

So, I begged
But you were far away
Saving souls perhaps? 

So, I screamed
But she was very small
And you have worlds to mend 

So, she died
And you were glorious
But you were somewhere else 

If you are my Shepherd
Then I'm lost and no-one can find me
If you are my Saviour
Then I'm dead and no-one can help me
If you are my Glory
Then I'm sick and no-one can cure me
If you light my darkness
Then I'm blind and no-one can see me 

If you are my Father
Then love lies abandoned and bleeding
If you are my comfort
Then nightmares are real and deceiving
If you are my answer
Then I must have asked the wrong question
I'd spit on your heaven
If I could find one to believe in
