Thanks to everyone for listening and watching.


@spacealf, yes... that is perceptive of you and in fact I feel I misspoke when I described the song as being about "love".

I think the theme the song writer is working with is more focused on the frustrations associated with passion.

The 2 songs we worked on are an attempt to describe how a man may struggle with a feeling of passionate enthusiasm towards a recent infatuation while finding himself unable to deny an enduring love for his actual soul mate.

The silver girl is the soul mate, the red girl is the infatuation, and the confused guy ends up acting like a pathetic clown.

I don't think that the band has a clear concept of how the costumes relate. They've been doing the costume performances for a decade but they are just starting to write original material for the band.

They are artists... all we get to see and hear are symptoms of their ongoing interests... what we get doesn't necessarily make sense.

It's just stuff that's out there.

The bands interest in exploring ideas is what attracted me to the opportunity to work with them. They all turned out to be remarkably thoughtful and serious people who were interested in having some fun. :-)


Good times!


Thanks again!

Keeps the listener/viewer captivated till the end. 

 I liked everything about this. Great job! 

Very good, the music v captivating.

I will say the intro opening seen totally captivated me and I loved the weirdness of it, in fact you have just provoked an idea for a video for me.

Love those backing vocals at 3:50 and builds well

Thanks to both of you for listening and posting such nice comments.

I'll pass it on to the band!

When the harmonies all came in I actually got chills.  This is a fine piece of music.  Do they do the whole makeup thing for gigs or was it just for the video?  Some great vocalists.  I couldn't believe how entranced I was with the music and the video.  Give them a thumbs up for me!  Great job by you too, Mike.  I just loved it all!

really like this Mike - well done all round

Both weird and cool. Very theatrical like a Meat Loaf ditty. I really like it. Good job

Hi everyone,
 Thanks again for listening and thank you very much for the kind comments... it means a lot to learn that people enjoy the work.


 Warren, yes they perform in full costume and often times hire a special effects person to help with stage antics. As I mentioned, they started doing the costumes well before they started writing their own music. It will be interesting to see how they bring the two ideas together.

 Thanks for mentioning that the chorus gave you chills... I must admit, it still does it too me too.


 all the very best,
mike

very cool project...the tune sounds great...

Thanks for listening.

:-)

all the best,
mike
