I was just talking to my co-worker about Tesla this morning. smile

Nice guitar riff, accessible lyrics, memorable chorus. It all worked for me.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

He is a great example of what our world would be like if it was about doing things for each other rather than worshipping the value of money. Man, your guitar sings in such a glorious way, Scott. You remind me of Slowhand Eric. Each note has the perfect expression. So good. So good.


Thanks Marty for the awesome comments. We really appreciate your support for our songs. Really glad you liked the song.

Psychedelia lives!

Ace band, lyric, vocals and guitar and, Scott, a mighty fine mix too.

It really is amazing to read about the genius people among us like Tesla, isn’t it?!

Way cool!

PS Bud saw King Crimson several times and agrees with others regarding the reference!

Nice tribute, Tesla surely was a creative inventor, but your creativity shines very bright also. Scott's guitar bring electricity and a memorable riff. Indian elements add ancient mystery. Robert's lyric together with his vocal and enjoyable backing vocals strengthens the limitless sublime Spirit Level trademark. "forget about Elon", good reminder smile

Instruments are cleverly chosen, the 60-70's feel is strongly present, I guess I have to listen next to The Mothers Of Invention smile Great ending.

Hi Robbert and Scott, or better; Spirit Level,

I wanted to listen to songs I missed the last couple of weeks and so there was Spirit Level with that magic 3-6-9 song.
When I could only lay in bed I tried to watch YouTube videos and there was one discussing 3-6-9 from Tesla.
And now you're singing and playing about this topic.
Let me tell you, I didn't understand what made Tesla so amzing with those numbers. It had to be something with electricity, but my brains did't do their work properly. Now they do, so don't make jokes on that...
Then I heard the song and I thought "Gee, that's a little too complicated for me", like some others wrote here. But soon after that first impression I began to like what I heard. The very nice and distinctive sound of Scotts'guitar combined with your vocals AND the Eastern touch of the conga's(?) gave it it's special atmosphere. Very well done!

But still I don't know what is so special about the numbers...

Hans
