Silver Thread

[carbon111]

My new tune "Silver Thread": http://soundcloud.com/carbon111/silver-thread

It's all Korg Oasys, Waldorf Q and Ensoniq Fizmo...the drums are Protools default softie "Boom".

Past the hour when little girls should dream
The road is silent, the hills are steep
Your wings are heavy with dust and sleep
You're miles afar from places you should be

Follow my voice along this silver thread
Follow my voice along this silver thread

Incense trees grow along dim lanes
A shadow city full of candle flames
Fly on and on my Abyssinian maid
Leave Kubla Khan to history"s fate

Follow my voice along this silver thread
Follow my voice along this silver thread

My house is warm and the time is late
Dip your wing and find this path safe
Little bird flies down to a sunless sea
What draws you on to set your heart free?

Follow my voice along this silver thread
Follow my voice along this silver thread

Thanks!

...as you may have noticed, I've been on a bit of a roll recently.

Another great new song james. I really like how your songwriting is evolving, it feels like you've kicked it up a notch.
Interesting how your last two songs use the Oasys for the foundation of the songs and that seems to be a good thing.
With so many instruments to choose from, it's easy to want to use as many as possible, which usually winds up making a song too busy, but you've managed to keep things well balanced.

Also, you seem to be singing with more confidence and it shows.
Great stuff, keep it up and enjoy this time of creativity.
