About Life in Mono

In 1998, the use of "Life in Mono" in the soundtrack, trailers, and end credits of the film adaptation of Great Expectations (after Robert De Niro, who was working on the film, heard the song) brought greater exposure for the song than ever before, and it became the number one most requested song on US radio stations (such as KROQ-FM in Los Angeles, KITS in San Francisco, and 99X in Atlanta) for weeks following the film's release. In terms of specific radio stations, for example, "Life in Mono" made #45 on the KROQ Top 106. .

Life in Mono Lyrics

[00:23.02] The stranger sang a theme
[00:29.17] From someone else's dream
[00:34.93] The leaves began to fall
[00:40.67] And no one spoke at all
[00:46.20] But I can't seem to recall
[00:50.57] When you came along
[00:52.83] Ingenue
[00:55.73]
[01:03.96] Ingenue
[01:04.56] I just don't know what to do
[01:17.51] The tree-lined avenue
[01:22.99] Begins to fade from view
[01:27.48]
[01:29.83] Drowning past regrets
[01:34.22] In tea and cigarettes
[01:39.97] But I can't seem to forget
[01:44.12] When you came along
[01:46.43] Ingenue
[01:49.36]
[01:57.64] Ingenue
[02:00.21]
[02:03.63] I just don't know what to do
[02:30.17]
[03:05.49] Ingenue
[03:08.03]
[03:11.29] I just don't know what to do
[03:28.19] Ingenue
[03:28.56] I just don't know what to do
[03:50.66] Ingenue
[03:51.13] I just don't know what to do
[04:13.34] Ingenue
[04:13.74]
