==Overview== | |||
{{Alone liner notes|"Dude, We're Finally Landing" was to be sung by the three male leads in ''Songs from the Black Hole''. Wuan and Dondó are excited because they are about to achieve their mission's objective after a long, excruciating haul through space [they represented the part of me that was excited about becoming a rock star] and Jonas is disillusioned as usual [he represented the part of me that wasn't satisfied with my life even as I was achieving such a momentous goal]. | |||
A few of the lyrics on the demo were just nonsense, placeholder lyrics. Below are the proper, final lyrics, from my notebook.|''[[Alone: The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo]]'', [[Alone liner notes|liner notes]]}} | |||
"Dude, We're Finally Landing" takes place in Act II.<ref>Cuomo, Rivers. ''[[The Pinkerton Diaries]]''. 2011. Self-published</ref> In the song, the three main male characters, [[Jonas]], [[Wuan]] and [[Dondó]] sing about how the ship is finally landing after 327 days in space. The demo is mainly a cappella, with the three characters all singing their points of view over each other. Some acoustic guitar appears near the end of the song. | |||
