I've been working on this song in X3 for the last month, and over the weekend, I made this video.  I hope you enjoy it, and I welcome your comments and thank you for them.  The link is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XM2BVjC6q_g&list=PLpL8qA7g-UFl7Mr8JJZXo0bgxLQXnzGvV&index=5

great video about an important topic. "this is still our planet - it's our only home", damn right, and the only home for our children too, but politicians seem to forget this fact on a daily basis...
 
hey, and I liked the percussion here a lot. And after everyone on this forum is claiming I like to sound like Bowie - I heard some Bowie on the bridge here, right?

Tom, thanks for your kind words.  As a matter of fact, I'm a big Bowie fan from way back.  I give credit to Superior Drummer for the beats, though I added some bass drum myself.

Excellent!
 
I like the song quite a bit. Alas, the message will fall on deaf ears.
 
Maybe a bit mid rangy though.
 
It's funny you would post this song though. I posted a song with a very similar topic, "Sacrifice", but mine is and angry song.
 
Well done! I enjoyed it.

Having worked in the environmental field for over 35 years, I can really appreciate this number.  The lyrics are great and the music gives this message the sense of urgency that it needs.  Can you believe that there are still people who deny global climate change?  The recently released summary of  Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Physical Science assessment will eventually have over 1,000 scientists and experts on this topic providing a peer review on research that has already been published (the IPCC does not do its own research but compiles and draws conclusions based on a multitude of already published, peer reviewed research).  This 5th report is more firm on its conclusion that human activities are exacerbating the problem and indicates that there is more of an urgency to address the problem.  I suggest that people go to the IPCC website and download a summary of the report.
 
Great song and a great post.

@guitarpima-Robert, thank you for having a listen and your kind words.  I wasn't sure about the mid range because I now mix for laptops and earbuds, as well as monitors.
 
@Freddy J-I, too, work in the environmental field for over 30 years, and this topic has been on my mind a lot, lately.  I'm glad you posted with all the information that you did.  If only a few will take the time to look into this topic, they will be amazed.  Thank you for your time and wise words.

Great sentiment to this song as noted those that need to hear the message will not.
 
Thanks for sharing

@Wookiee-Thanks for having a listen and your kind words.  I may be preaching to the choir, but it's a good choir.
