Wow this is really epic and well weird!!! The intro music is just beautiful!!
Lyrically Its like everything has been winded up like a big toy and the pace and everything it sooooo darn trippy!!!!!!
This is far out far for now!!!
It also reminds me of some sort of Super Hero Anthem, perhaps its an anthem for all Moms out there?
Whatever it is to me it bloody good and i have enjoyed listening the 2 times i have so far and I think I'll be back for a download soon!!

Fantastic harmony lead guitar sound.
Very cool lush keyboards. The bass and drums could be brought up in the mix a bit IMHO. Excellent vocal harmonies and melody.....although it seemed like you were 'holding back' a bit in terms of the vocal performance, maybe it's the mix. Sounds a bit like something I heard by Julian Lennon, but I can't remember the name of the tune. It sounds good, but with a few tweeks here and there, it could easily be great.
Nice job!!!

Hark! The Herald Angel Singing The opening made me think it was going to be a Christmas tune, and then the lyrics made me think of Angels. Maybe this will be a new generation Christmas Song.  (Smile)
You have such a huge sound. I guess I would have to add some keys to my music to get it to sound this big.
I really like the spoken parts best. And the stereo field at the end is very clean.

As the gently orchestral intro blossomed into anthemic drama, this reminded me of something It's a Beautiful Day might do, or maybe The Flock.
I have to give points to anyone who has the guts to do the dramatic reading thing in a song. It's not that "out there", really...I mean, it was kind of a staple of the Motown sound...it's just that I, personally, have chickened out every time I've planned on doing one of those (on the plus side, the vocal melodies I've improved in the process have worked out alright).
There's plenty of both musicians' identity, character to this. I'd bet that if you would have quizzed me by asking, "Name two DMusic artists who have worked together before who collaborated on this", I would've gotten it right.
Shadowmom's lyrics work well for a different reason entirely. They read very much like Farfor44's other work- universal themes, poetically yet accessibly expressed.

Musically this is wonderful, grabs you right from the start.
I have tried the spoken thing a couple times, but then dead rock stars come out of their graves and beat me up so I don't try it no more. They don't fight that good, but it's still sad they would try. Burning Candle Leave 'em in R&R Heaven I always say.
You, on the other hand pull it off well & all dead rock stars are resting peacefully. Cloud 9 I really like the way it weaves in with the singing parts too.
Class passages in here, gotta listen a couple times to catch them all. (Very Happy)
Lyrically it is a masterpiece too, very emo without being cheesy. I dig the guitar tones too. Yep. I can hear elements of each of you in this, which is the definition of a first class collaboration. Bravola Thumbs Up Nodding

Nice track! I like the guitar and the vocal harmonies, though I would like to hear the rhythm section a little more prominent in the mix, as any kick and bass are almost swallowed. The lyrics are wonderful... maybe I'll recruit a lyricist myself one of these days, as my dislike for writing them is the #1 thing stopping me from recording sometimes. The sound at the end of the track is really cool. Thumbs Up

wow great song. I love the arragement. the intro keys are fantastic. and the slide/build into the first chord is great.
there is some real musical talent going on the fat key sound to the lead key sound kinda with a floating feel almost like flute. The change to the lead guitar and talking vox is very cool. and the the cool chord changes from that move the mood right along. Song never get boring. outstanding lyrics this is a good progressive style hit.
