Sirens

fly without wings
wound without claws
song of the sirens
has broken my cause

lashed to the mast
speaking in tongues
tangled in wishes
my will undone

Calliope Terpsichore
maidens of Persephone
cut the rope evermore
to live with you under the sea
Odysseus dies
shipwrecked on a sigh

sing with your eyes
I`ll breathe by your touch
drowning men know this
my ecstasy judge


Calliope Terpsichore
maidens of Persephone
cut the rope evermore
to live with you under the sea
Odysseus dies
shipwrecked on a sigh

Robert and Scott,

You've done a great job with this one. The composing, the arrangement and the performances all work in concert to create a very atmospheric piece of music.

Robert, your singing is excellent and you sound really, really comfortable with this.

Scott, as always, your guitar playing shines.

All the best,
Noel

Robert and Scott I agree with everything that has been said.

Super intro, great backing tracks, super guitar chops and tone and one outstanding vocal.

Two thumbs up.

Very nice collaboration. I love it! From the short time I've been listening here I'm finding that the collabs seem to be the most fun and talent driven. Getting those brains together!

Of all of the songs in the world, the WHOLE world, that use "Calliope Terpsichore" this one is my favorite! Seriously, those are some amazing lyrics to have to write and put a melody to. Well done!

Cool song in my book! Thanks for sharing it.

Wow - what a tune! I really liked the general sound of this one. It's got an excellent groove and guitar work, and excellent vocals that match it perfectly. It has a haunting feeling to, and I loved how at the chords it picks up in energy. The whole thing is interesting the entire way through, and really drew me in.

You nailed it - thanks for sharing smile

Robert & Scott,

Wonderful job on this. Such interesting music in all regards.

Some of the lyric references are outside my knowledge scope, but still interesting. Nice vocals

Scott - your guitar work on this is excellent. Very musical.

Nice use of loops. And nice mix.

Really enjoyed listening to this...

Thank you, Noel.
Atmosphere was the aim, so I`m glad you enjoyed that!
Prior to BiaB I hadn`t sung rock songs outside the living rooms of friends back in the day- I think about those times sometimes when loosening up for these songs.
Scott always seems to understand the feel I`m asking him to interpret on guitar - his parts were so easy to fit into the song.

Robert .

Torrey,
Thank you! I used the Ozone Imager with a delay on the chorus- glad you liked the result.

Having already written the verses, I thought what about singing the lovely creatures names on the chorus. A quick search turned up such gems as Thelxiepia & Aglaopheme...believe me, I chose the easy ones!
Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment.
