Robert (and Scott):
Very poetic write set to some pretty music. Love the harmonies here, Robert—very well done and artfully mixed. “A blind girl’s rainbow songs the deaf man hears”—wow, what a great line. Just a lovely tune, brought home by Scott’s terrific slide guitar solo. Excellent!
Happy Holidays, gents!

A beautiful song ..it’s a real tapestry of words and music. It reminded me of Don Mc Lean’s Vincent and all the incredible imagery. Well done.. Regards, Dermot

SL, Sweet tune. Robert, your lyrics are a pleasure to get lost in. Excellent composition and vocals! Strings work very well. Neat slide guitar from Scott! Clear mix & easy listen. Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Hi Spirit level,
What a very beautiful song! Dave wrote it down mathematically, but as a huge compliment and I can't add anything to that.
I needed Google on the lyrics, but from what I could understand it was just very nice. But the way you pronounced the word "Earth" in Asylum Earth was very, uh... expressive! And Scott, you had played a wonderful solo. I liked how you started the outro. Very nice dynamic you released.
So, I bet we will hear much more from you the next year!
Merry Christmas, Hans
Hans, I appreciate that you continue to listen to Spirit Level despite having to Google my lyrics! Thanks for all the positives you found in this song. Even the name "paintbox colours" is an imaginative one. Speaking of colorful imagination, this song is an excellent example. I like that Robert '--if you stay tuned passed the philosophizing, you'll hear some great guitar.' I may not understand your philosophy veiled so esoterically in these outstanding lyrics (as you always write), but I know I am in total agreement with you, Robert. I'm also totally agree with the impact Scott brings to it. What a perfect voice he sings on 6 strings. Speaking of singing, dang, you sound terrific on this, and the harmonies are outstanding. That`s very kind, Marty-yes, Scott really got into the mood of my esoteric write here! This is really beautiful Robert.
Great lyrics, music, mix and singing.
Loved it!
Thanks very much,David! Robert and Scott
"we live our lives on this asylum earth every madness seen inside us first" Great lines!
I don't remember hearing this before, but your resurrection of the tune is justified! Lots of deep lyrics that paint wonderful word pictures! Good job Scott! Slide parts are hard to do without a lot of extra noise, but you got it done! Good job guys!
Thanks, T
Torrey, As mentioned this isn`t a revisit of the original song, but a new song of the same name. Glad you liked it- thank you for commenting! Robertkc
Very sweet and gripping song. The orchestration is pleasant and the lyrics well written. Well done.
Kindly regard Derochette alias JaniJackFlash Thank you,Derochette. Robert & Scott,
Poetic. Good write. Nice BAND. Good vocal. Nice guitar, Scott.
fj Thanks for listening, Floyd. The chord changes are fascinating. The lyrics are dreamlike and stream of consciousness. Scott's slide work presents the perfect compliment to the atmospheric mood. Good work. I liked it, Tom Tom, We appreciate your listen and comments. Robert

“grounded freighter tilting in the bay refugees through moonlight wade sacrifice their lodestone feather on feather bone by bone to give a child wings made new in the impossible blue” Great lyric and we enjoyed your philosophizing. As always Scott's work and your choice of tracks well support the melody and lyric. And we always enjoy a nice open mix. Excellent soundstage. Happy holidays and best to you and yours! J&B

Your lyrics are always good, but this has become my favorite. The "Elysium Green" stanza is the highlight for me. Instrumentation is quite appropriate with Scott's guitar matching the mood of the lyrics.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
