about

Our entry for Round 4 of Nur Ein XIV. We had to use the title "No Memory" and elements of chiptunes or "computer sounds". This is a bit like a 50s style add for a service like the one from "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind". We fulfilled the challenge by including sounds from the PO-20 Arcade model Pocket Operator synth.

lyrics

Jimmy had a problem in his job
He couldn’t focus cause his heart throbbed
Passing by her desk he would cry
Been two weeks since she said goodbye
Seemed to occupy all of his thoughts
What could he do? He was distraught
Seeing us put his mind at ease
Now he lives his life as he pleases

With no memory
No memory
At No Memory
No memory

Poor Becky she had been betrayed
Her friend revealed the truth she conveyed
Everyone learned the secret she had hid
An injustice she could never rid
Years later she hadn’t forgot
Trusting anyone still remained so fraught
She came to see us and what do you know
Her mind became as pure as driven snow

With no memory
No memory
At No Memory
No memory

Scars of the mind don’t simply go away
They can wound, disrupt and trouble you every day
We’ll provide you the helping hand you need
In a few short sessions you’ll be free, satisfaction guaranteed

With no memory
(Come see us)
No memory
(We’ll help you)

At No Memory
(Come see us)
At No Memory
(We’ll help you)

With no memory
(Come see us)
No memory
(We’ll help you)

At No Memory
(Come see us)
At No Memory
(We’ll help you)
