i like the music. theres alot going on here...

pretty epic dude!

Enjoyed this. David Bowie springs to mind.

Nice!

Good lyrics, good music.

-There is one instrument part that sounds just a bit overdone, and fuzzy, and it comes off a little bit annoying.

Outside of that one part, this was a really well done composition, and I enjoyed listening to it!

sounding really good m8! i like it alot! great sound! and vocals!

[this is good]

PS: Thank you for the invite to hear it!

Reminded me of hearing the Australian Pink Floyd group in Boston recently.

The vocals are getting a bit buried behind all the syth's.

[this is good]

Brilliant metaphors and figurative references. This is really great stuff, man.

I don't think I've asked you ... do you have a group doing this ... or are you the one putting it all together?

Either way ... very, very nice! Thanks for the invite ... :D

Thanks for the comments everyone. Working on another at the moment which is just acoustic & piano.....but proving elusive at the moment! WoF, no band, unfortunately, so have to do everything myself. Bit of a drain but I enjoy it!!

[this is good]

Awsome stuff, i agree with Dark Knightingale also by the fuzzing sound. but through out the song it works well. check out ma stuff on ma page.

This was very good. Made me want to take a train to Mars. lol

Can definitely hear some Bowie in there, look forward to hearing the next one! x

Really enjoyed this. Excellent music. Can hear what other people are saying about Bowie, but also reminds me a little of Suede. Really, really good! Keep up the good work!

[this is good]

Of course Bowie will spring to mind. he has a song called Life On Mars....I agree with the Suede comparison (though Brett was doing his best to out-Bowie Bowie...Zowie), i enjoyed it

[c’est top]

I like it. Well done !

Seeker. I will check it out as soon as I get a chance!!!

Need to listen to Bowie.....Is it me or, as a vocalist, is it difficult to hear other influences? I don't like the sound of my own voice either. Not a cry for TLC but just the way it is. Is that the same for other vocalists?
