  About the Soundtrack

David Lynch

"Alan Splet [sound design] and I worked together in a little garage studio with a big console and two or three tape recorders, and worked with a couple of different sound libraries for organic effects. The we fed them through the console. It's all natural sounds. No Moog synthesizers. Just changes like with a graphic equalizer, reverb, a Little Dipper filter set for peaking certain frequencies and dipping out things or reversing things or cutting things together. We had a machine to vary the pitch but not the speed. We could make the sounds the way we wanted them to be. It took several months to do it and six months to a year to edit it."

  Lyric

Lady in the Radiator

In Heaven

In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
You've got your good thing
And I've got mine.

In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
In heaven everything is fine
You've got your good thing
And you've got mine.

(David Lynch)
