Spaceman ..

[godinqc]

Another space song  .
The story is about a spaceman that misses his home while protecting the universe.
I might had another verse/chorus later on but that's it for now
Let me know what you think
Have a great day ..

I left my home
For a place in the stars
Closer to the sun
I miss my home
Protecting places on earth
I'm the ranger of the stars
Someone had to be
Part of this galaxy
Heading to this world
As a rocket in the dark
I left my home
To be closer to the sun

Oh this is fabulous.
Looking at the post and the lyrics, at first, I was expecting to go "yes add another verse"...

Now, I can say "no, I wouldn't "

For me, as a listener, it's perfect.
It's a complete statement both musically and lyrically, and I feel truly satisfied.

I love the melody and the plaintive way you sing it.

Nice one.

[StephenM]

wicked good stuff...
love the way this builds to that trademark of your sounds...the climatic guitar! 

lyrically reminds me of all the folks north of the border who head to Florida to be closer to the sun..

the next song on the list is Andy's and he is singing about the sun too!

.... I was thinking, er, wha? .... I haven't got a song about the sun, have I?

Ah... oh, I see.
Listen to that one imagining a 15 year-old Russian girl singing it.
It doesn't have to be about that, songs get finished in the listener's head - but that's what was in my heart when writing it, the opening lines were more a lack of sun when normal people were getting it.

godinqc, listening to Spaceman again - it gets even better for me with repeated listens (and Mrs R likes it too!)

Very cool - an epic musical and visual adventure! Love it - very complete as-is!

Andy, it's kind of why I like listening down through the lists...sometimes there is a cool "synchronicity" that seems to occur where songs fit together... like something blowing in the winds that catches peoples thoughts... or perhaps I read into things a bit much...

I wouldn't change a thing in this wonderful song. It's perfect the way it is. Bravo!

The vocal sounds sort of like a space robot guy, which is oddly PERFECT for the lyric and the song.
The guitar builds and pays off nicely.

I think it's great as is and doesn't need a second verse, but if you WERE going to expand it may I suggest the second verse come in with a different voice and a different character, which this space guy meets while out in space... Maybe an alien?

[Zoltan]

Seriously good! I don't know what i was expecting. I guess something like Bowie, or Babylon Zoo's Spaceman. This was neither, but i can hear a hint of auto-tune, or is it space voice?

The synth strings work perfectly as do the gentle piano playing. When the guitar comes in it kicks the song into another gear. Some of the chord movements are borderline operatic. Cool stuff!

Yours truly,

Thanks for the feedback ..
For the vocals I'm using EMvoice this is why is sounds a bit synthetic .
I'm a really bad singer so for now I'm using EMvoice until maybe someday I can sing properly

Thanks and have a great day
