"Expectation" is a song by Tame Impala, released as a single in 2010. It was recorded during the sessions for the ''Innerspeaker'' album in 2009, and released as the third single from that album. The single features artwork from Australian artist Leif Podhajsky, who also created the artwork for ''Innerspeaker'' and the follow-up ''Lonerism''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://leifpodhajsky.com/ )〕 ==Composition== "Expectation" was written by Kevin Parker in the key of C major in a 3/4 time signature. It is based around the two repeating chords of Cmaj7 and Fmaj7.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/t/tame_impala/expectation_tab.htm )〕 The song starts off in a polymeter rhythm, with 3/4 on the drums, and 6/8 on the guitar, bass and keyboard. The vocals have reverb and delay applied to them,〔,(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rywi9oXJg08 )〕 and the guitars are distorted through a flanger pedal. The verse features a slight call and response type effect where Parker's vocals come in over the top of the drums and bass, and then when the vocals stop they are replaced by the guitar over the top of the drums and bass. During the guitar sections in the verse, there is also a heavily flanged guitar low in the mix playing a melody in the F major scale.〔 Another verse comes in over the top of the pre-verse instrumental section. The pre-chorus is short and features an F5 power chord played on guitar to punctuate the lyrics. There is also a short bass fill, as well as a synth fill.〔 The chorus then comes in, featuring a chord progression of A minor, E minor, Fmaj7, Cmaj7, G major, Fmaj7. The oscillating, echoed vocals from the chorus filter into the next section, with the guitar from the intro played in 4/4. The song then returns to 3/4 with the regular strumming pattern returning again. A flanged backwards guitar overdub is also included.〔 This gives way to the bridge, which has a key change to G minor, with the repetitive chords of G minor and C major. Additional reverb and delay on Parker's vocals are used to provide a hazy atmosphere.〔 The key returns to C major in the next verse. It has the same Cmaj7 and Fmaj7 chord progression once again. The pre-chorus is extended for a few extra bars this time, and includes an Fmaj7 chord in addition to the F major of the previous pre-chorus.〔 A synth fill transitions to the chorus, but this time it only has a synth playing the chorus chord progression behind Parker's delayed vocals, which have had the delay time shortened and the feedback amount extended.〔 The full band then comes back in to play the chorus a couple of times more before the song completely fades out at 4:24.〔 At 4:30, the song fades back in for a reprise of the bridge, with an extremely flanged guitar playing the G minor, C major chord progression in the key of G minor.〔 The drums and bass soon follow the guitar, with the bass playing the vocal melody from the lyric "In all of the universe, there is nobody for me" using the G minor scale. The drums slowly start building and the song eventually comes to a crescendo with layered guitar overdubs and synths. The song then suddenly stops with a soft synth fading out a second after the band do.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Expectation (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
