Nice…. Makes me remember all that dragging gear through rainy downtown Seattle at wee hours of the morning! (And why I gave all that up). Little bit of U2 coming through, also.
The voice is amazing. You have captured emotion and feeling here. Great lyrics and song concept…. Very imaginative…. This was always my favourite song on the original Van Halen album, it sat in a particular spot on the journey…. Somehow you have maintained that spot. Nice work.
I like the lite touch of the bass. I have found the way you approach the bass line (if you use a bass guitar, which I do more and more these days, in lieu of a synth bass) is everything, sometimes the lightest attack is the sexiest and most-impactful. I like this one!
I love the concept of the album…. The Van Helen reference….. and then what you get is so unexpected! I suspect this is your voice here.
Everything I have heard so far is really well produced, everything is sitting in the mix just perfectly!
I like Bad Religion. The first album I heard, I remember thinking that it was amazing that there was a smart punk band. Also, I like the way that their songs could work with an acoustic guitar, and still stand.
I thought this had a similar…
Don't let it be said that I've forgotten my love of R.E.M.
Dream of a life that’s never been seen
A world of possibilities, a place in between
A place of shadows, a place of light
A place of secrets, hiding in the night
Oblique, oblique…
Toe tapping catchiness, classic REM sound. I love the repeated guitar riffing throughout the song, and you kept that little pause at 3:24! I think it add a little bit of dynamic and tension at the end of the song.
Yacht rock.
Every time I see your smile
I feel like I’ve come home
And every time you stay a while
Is the best day that I’ve known
You’re the one that lights my way
Brings brightness to my day
And I just have to say
Don’t want it…
This one also has a lilting, melancholy feel to it. Groovy bass! Awesome outro; I love how all the instruments fade out except the cello and flute sounds.
I tried to write a song that sounded sort of like Peter Gabriel. I'm not sure how close I got, but Megan and Jarrett absolutely killed it on this tune.
I can see you in my mind
Like a dream I can’t forget
I’m reaching out to touch you
But…
The final Song for my 2023 RPM challenge!! Dusted off my acoustic guitar (and blistered my fingers) to get this one done. Phew! I love Latin rhythms and so I found a beat and jammed it up. Thanks again to anyone who listens -it's really fun…
Dig the X-Files ref. Is Sabrina a sexy little grey or an Earth girl on whom the protagonist is sweet, and both get caught up in the alien cuddling?
(Perhaps I am over-analyzing! Carry on.) In any event, nice job!

Great lyrics, threatening and foreboding guitar, nice work!
You have certainly been expanding out with the synths…. This has a Moog vibe… nice

This reminds me of Til Tuesday and Aimee Mann… it’s nice!
Really nice vibe. Those arps in the bridge and that menacing middle 8. You have married a very modern sound with Kraftwerk…. I like it!
It’s got an ‘Enigma’ vibe, when they used Sarah McClachlan, very engaging and with all that ear candy, makes for a nice listen.

What a great vibe. That voice….. is that the synth voice you were talking about. It’s fabulous! How do you do it?
God bless you
Agree with (WilSun, I assume?) sounds real good now! Any RPM '23? Thanks btw!
Lovely release. Really nice mix of atmospheric & layered pop with some introspective, texture based pieces.
How can I get more of this
Great vocals, catchy guitar solo outro. A really fun listen... it's a blast (in every sense of the word)!

So melancholy! I love that repeating high guitar(?) motif throughout the song. Such a great outro!
Congratulations on your RPM! .. Music Sounds Great!
