Yes, there are two distinct choir parts. The chords and the lead were played together - look ma! both hands :) as an improvisation, so some of the hesitation is due to that. Later I did some timing correction magic in Rosegarden before adding the accompanying parts, but leaving it not 'perfect' was indeed a deliberate artistic decision. I frequently do pensive/introspective work but downright unhappy is something I've only done a couple of times. -- It wasn't me!
