What a tune - very enticing, and very unique. The sitar was an excellent touch. The song has a really cinematic and abstract feeling to it. Somehow, it managed to be dizzying yet addictive all the while. You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing  Thanks Deryk for your kind words I tried to get some esoteric feel with that sitar, I'm glad you liked that selection. Janne

I love it when someone steps outside the box and puts something challenging and original on the forum.
This is really interesting and well worth a couple of listens. The choice of instruments worked well. I particularly liked the sitar echoing the tramlines. The sw16 drums worked a treat as well.
The slightly stilted vocal delivery added to the trippy journey.
Cheers,
Mike Thanks Mike, your words are really rewarding to me I like to step outside the box, not following conventional paths  Janne

Janne,
Tasty stuff! Very interesting and unique write! Melody goes to very unsuspected places.
Perfect tune for aliens!
P.S. Sitar was a great choice.
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.
Thanks Misha for your positive and kind words I hope the aliens will listen  Janne

Light & breezy satire!
The rim shots are REALLY prominent but all is is chill & well constructed. Thanks Ray for your kind feedback I hadn't paid attention to the rim shots, but now that you mentioned they began to disturb me, how selective our hearing can be Janne

Hypnotic and richly textured. And classy.
Productions of this style and quality amaze us. Soooooo many things to get "right."
You did an incredible job with the arrangement, the band and the vocals.
Wow!

I missed this the first time around, so I'm glad I got to hear it this time. The sitar gave it a bit of a Steely Dan feel, and the backstory made it even more enjoyable. Pretty funny.

Yes, this has something intriguing about it, to me it seems you were at a creative height with it despite structural conventions. Vocal got you by and made the song work well and not distract.

Fantastic production. Constantly fresh. A very cool idea for a song and the pop-jazz backing is a prefect match. I know it must have been hard to sing/record...but it was worth it. Really good. Thanks Tangmo for your very kind and positive words Janne

Great work here Janne! I think I like this one better than anything I've heard of yours. I think you did an excellent job with the vocals on this! That jazzy chorus is beautiful and very original! Thanks, Torrey
Thanks Torrey for your positive feedback, I'm glad you think the chorus is very original, that's rewarding Janne

Very cool, Janne!
Nice composition and production, I like the way you bring in the various instruments.
Vocal also works very well I think.
Maybe my favorite of yours that I have heard so far, well done! Dave said just what I was thinking. This is very cool! Well mixed. Thanks Floyd for listening and giving nice feedback Janne

Thanks Janice and Bud, I really appreciate your positive feedback I have come back to this song and arrangement several times, maybe that's why the arrangement has evolved into the quality you are talking about Janne
