Between 1999 and 2002, he released four full-length albums as Hanna (Severance, Scarlet Manifesto, Amen, and Contemplating Jazz) that have stretched and blurred the boundaries of house, techno and Jazz.
Preferring content to fads and current musical trends, Hanna tries to avoid spending too much time listening to what his peers are producing; instead he looks back to the pioneering spirit of his favourite musicians like Carmen McCrae, Bill Evans, Thomas Whitfield, and Thelonious Monk for his inspiration. The result is a sound that brings their philosophies into electronic musicÖthe artist not being awed into futility by his heroes, but awed into creating something unique, fantastic and more than a little bit out there! Imagine a Sun Ra-inspired club on some distant planet where futuristic melody and harmony sit on top of the deepest funk-filled grooves and you're halfway there!
Hanna's impressive discography includes essential and classic releases on such diverse labels as Track Mode, Metamorphic, Sublime, Paper, R&S, Panhandle, Afterhours and Deep Departures. He's also collaborated with Dan Curtin under the Key Of Soul guise.

Whooa, well you know sometimes...

Sometimes I get wrapped up
In what I want you to be
I guess sometimes I forget
Just how much you mean to me
(You mean to me)

Sometimes I get wrapped up
In what I want us to be like
Then I forget just how much
I need you in this life

And I know it's not my place to judge
(To judge)
Oh whoa
Who you are or what you're gonna be
I guess sometimes I forget
Whoa
Just how much you mean to me

Sha na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na
Whoa
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na

Sometimes I get wrapped up
In always being right
Then I forget I'm wrong most the time
Sometimes I miss your tender kiss
And being the man to understand

Oh

And I know it's not my place to judge
(To judge to judge whoa)
Who you are or what you're gonna be
I guess sometimes I forget
Whoa
Just how much you mean to me

Sha na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na

Sha na na na na na na na na na

I guess sometimes I just don't know,
Whoa
How to say exactly how I feel inside
I guess sometimes I just don't know
Whoa
How to say that I love you

Yeah

Sha na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na

Whoa
Sha na na na na na na na na na na na

Overall Meaning

The song “Sometimes” by Hanna is a reflection on the complexities of relationships, and how we can sometimes lose sight of what truly matters in them. The opening lines begin with the acknowledgement that the singer is not perfect and can often get “wrapped up” in their own wants and desires. They admit that they can “forget just how much” the other person means to them, and the importance of having that person in their life.

The chorus emphasizes the idea of judgement, and how it is not the singer’s place to judge who the other person is or what they will become. These lines suggest that the singer may have previously been critical or judgmental towards the other person, but now sees the error of their ways. They realize that they need the other person in their life, and struggle to express that appreciation and love.

The bridge of the song adds another layer to the message, as the singer admits that they can be stubborn and always want to be right. This line speaks to a common issue in relationships, where both people can become stubborn and refuse to see the other person’s perspective. The singer also longs for the other person’s affection and understanding, suggesting that they may have previously neglected these aspects of the relationship. Ultimately, the singer expresses their love and affection for the other person, but admits that sometimes they struggle to communicate these feelings.

I realize that I shouldn't judge you or control what you do, but sometimes I forget that and fail to recognize how much you matter to me.

Sometimes I get wrapped up In always being right Then I forget I'm wrong most the time Sometimes I miss your tender kiss And being the man to understand Oh
I get too caught up in winning every argument and being right all the time, but I forget that I'm often wrong. Sometimes I miss the intimate connection and emotional understanding that I should have with you.

I guess sometimes I just don't know, Whoa How to say exactly how I feel inside I guess sometimes I just don't know Whoa How to say that I love you
Sometimes I struggle to express my true feelings and thoughts, especially when it comes to telling you how much I love you. I wish I could find the right words to convey what's in my heart.
