Hey I'm back with new material at last. The new album from Ponies at Dawn just dropped, it's called Celestial Planes and this song is on it! Thanks for picking me!
LYRICS:
we're out of time
and out of money
what made me think this was
the land of milk and honey
it's time to go
and no more dreaming
walk in the rain under streetlight
pavement gleaming
I'm kind of blue
but I'll be okay
I wasn't looking for a
fairy tale anyway
"hello my name is Happy,
let me sing to you
and maybe we can be friends?"
the peace and laughter
came to such a savage end
but that's alright
that's alright
it's alright
it's not for her
she was taken with
a strong disinclination
she's in your head
you wrote her resume
she's gonna find herself
another occupation
take out a loan
enrol in classes
you're working nights
and now you can't afford
new glasses
"maybe together
we can break it down,
and build something new"
a flash of colour and she's gone
the one you hoped to pursue
you'll never know if all you had to say
was 'I love you'
I love you too
but that's alright
[instrumental]
and when you're done
they say you're pretty
you've got another small
apartment in the city
it's only words
no real story
no eucatastrophe
and no hidden allegory
go for a walk
no destination
stay off the train
there'll be no one at the station
"I'm gonna see you on the other side
I'm counting on you today"
and fearless promises
will only fade away
but that's alright
that's alright

I'm not a native english speaker so when I listen to english music I take the lyrics as an instrument, like another guitar. You don't listen to a guitar to memorize each note and write them down, you enjoy the feeling, the pitch of the instrument, the rythm, etc ... So I basically do the same with the lyrics, that's why sometimes I love some songs with horrible written lyrics but will hate some of the finest texts because it doesn't suit me on an "hearing" level. Ho boy, i hope i didn't lose you by that point xD Well, what I wanted to say in the end is that you have a BEAUTIFUL voice, I suppose now you can guess I don't care very much for the lyrics (sorry) but the way you sing them it's awesome. It gave me a creepy/nice feeling of someone whispering into your hear when you're not ready for it and about to sleep, you're scared and then you realize it's your mother and ask her to continue. To put it simply : I love this song !

Honestly, when I really take the time to listen to the lyrics, this is one of the most depressing songs I've ever heard. I don't mean that in a bad way, though. It's well done, and powerful, and an instant favorite. I just shouldn't listen to it when I'm already feeling down.

Songs like these that tickle the mind in such unexpected ways...these are the kinds of things that really make me want to learn music theory. The evocation of these rare modes, diminished and augmented chords and such, it permits the telling of a tale without words. The first time I heard that music is the universal language, I thought it was such fluff...now I am starting to _get_ it. It's a real marvel. Thanks for putting your heart into this.

This song fits unusually well with the interpretation of Moondancer from the fanfiction "Background Pony"--and her rationalization of a memory of old friendship with Twilight and Lyra that has been altered by Lyra's non-existence.

Listening to this, I can't help but think of what would come of a new collab between you and someone like SGaP (who I've heard might be coming back...) or Kreuhn. You all have a great understanding of that style that's both soothing and unique, but also somewhat progressive. Either way, this is great stuff. It's nice to see you keeping quality while also making music that is undoubtedly new. There's a real dreamy vibe to this one, and I loved how you used the strings here - placing them as a comfortable harmony instead of shoving them in the forefront like most would. Keep up the great work
@replacer 9 жыл бұрын

Well, you may still get that chance one day, who knows. There was recently activity around SGaP's tumblrs which hinted towards at least the possibility of a return. So here's hoping.

This song actually kinda freaked me out. Something in the melody I guess, but it made me need to look over my shoulder. Don't get me wrong, I can tell it is well put together and flows really nice. Over all it's pretty good. On the other hand, the lyrics didn't really appeal to me. Though, you sang them beautifully. I hope you are not insulted. That is not my intention. I can see how someone could like it, since it is indeed well put together. It's just not my cup of tea. I still enjoy your voice, though. ^_^

MLP - Lead Fedora it's kinda just imagery really, meant to evoke a humdrum existence, growing up, being disappointed, from various perspectives...it has a little bit of Bohemian Rhapsody about it ("nothing really matters to me") and people keep noticing the Floyd influence which is cool. There's maybe a hint of love triangle.
