HEVYDEVY FORUMS

Hey Dev,

So in my own anticipation of Addicted, I noticed that one of the track names on the album, as well as on Christeen + 4 Demos, was "OM/Om". I was wondering what Om may actually mean because, recently I watched a good part of the 1973 French animated film, which in was titled in English, "Fantastic Planet" ("La Planète sauvage" being the french title). While watching the subtitled movie, I noticed that "Om" referred to the humans which were being held as pets by the aliens in this movie. To me, this seemed like just one of those wacky Dev things that may be just right up there with your other interests. Anyways, i am very curious and hope that you could enlighten us all on the question of what "Om" may actually stand for. The other apparently obvious guess would be "Ocean Machine" possibly??? Anyways, keep up the amazing work.

Hey yeah, or is it Om as in AUM?
Except I think it's been removed from the 'Addicted' track list.

It's not included in the final track listing bro

I've noticed a ton of Devysongs that has at least one om in it. And I'm guessing it's the spiritual one as well.

as in "om nom nom"

Looks like it turned out to be a re-recording of "OM" from the Christeen EP. Although the title says "OM (2011)" in the tracklist for the Contain Us boxset...

Indeed, it's the short version that's been played live quite a number of times. It only features the first 2 minutes or so of the "original" Om, which is fine because I think that track doesn't need Anneke.

^ then i guess it's too bad she's on it, eh?

That's what I meant. As in, it's good thing it stops after 2 minutes and doesn't rape the other 4 minutes of remaining glory.
