I am a Spaceman (original by Geir)

[Geir]

What seems a long time ago, I wrote a song called "This is a song".

This one I wrote tonigh and it is a sort of counterpart to that song. It is kinda rough in the edges, as almost every track is first take.

2 acoustics
1 piano
1 electric
1 electric slide
1 bass
1 voice
drums, all FX and mic is mbr



I am a Spaceman

I am a Spaceman
I'm walking down the roads
on Jupiter and Mars
I have traveled around in many worlds
and flown into a star

but now I wanna settle down
dump my spacecraft and
get my feet on solid ground

I am a wanderer
I wonder what will come
when I find singularity
I am a traveler
unraveling my dreams
of tranquility

and as I settle down
I plant a tree and
watch it rise up from the ground

am I a crazy man
for thinking it must be
a place without a storm
I may think hazy 'bout
the pros and cons of this
but a new life will take form

and as my laser-shield shuts down
I take a bath
and watch the rain soak the ground

I am a simple man
I've got simple needs
put a roof over my head
give me a G'tar and
a woman I can love
and perhaps a loaf of bread

then I will play
and I will sing
and make sweet music every day
(love and music)

wacky wonderful and distinctly geir, you have your own sound my friend.

Really bounces along with a really nice vibe and great vox, seems like the spaceman prefers the simple life, me to.

Awesome! a bunch of first takes? wow. I can't even begin to understand how cool that would be!

I love your sound my friend.

Any song with "spaceman" in the title automatically gets 10 bonus points, in my book.

That makes this song at least 110.

That was awesome. It would really fit together with "This is a song". I see prog action!!
