The View From The TopA song about how little understanding you'll find amongst privileged upper middle class and rich people to various struggles as race equality, gender equality, workers rights and paying decent wages. I belong to the privileged upper middle class here in Denmark, which i why I point a finger at myself. Feel free to agree or disagree upon my views.

Hmmm, thought I posted my thoughts on this, now It's gone.
Oh well once again:
Well done!
I like the message.

I'd've liked to read the lyric as I listened but they aren't buried so I'll cope.
There's a Gilbert O'Sullivan lilt to the chorus melody - nice.
The vocal sounds over processed.
Great message & cool song.
Cheers

Solid production, well-constructed song, and a very good performance. Especially liked how you handled the BGV's. Nice choices re: instrumentation and use of the RT's. Thanks for posting.
Question: What is "Gentle Quirks"?

There's a 60' & 70's vibe to it, where the use of chord progression with 7sus and and Dimished were used frequently.
There's more than a single vocal track, but there's going quite some processing on:
There's a Vocal track 1 octave higher than my normal vox
There's my normal Vox
There's a track an octave lower than my normal vox
The plugin ADT from Wave is used
And iZotope Nectar channel strip with compression, EQ, Noise Gate (to minimize bleed) and RX7 De-Click
Here's the lyrics:
I can almost sense a new sensation in the air
I can hear them marching in the street
Rising up against a system unjust and unfair
It is a tough one to defeat
On the news they talk about gender equality
I really thought that deal was done
Luckily this mess has none at all to do with me
I just turn my head and then it’s gone
I don’t disagree with their views
And I wish them all the best
But why do they constantly argue?
It makes me so depressed
I’ve been sitting here all life
Feeling good about myself
I have been appointed to a nice room with a view
Maybe you deserved it more than me
I have decided to stay for a while or two
Just feeling good about myself
I have an eye for details both at work and in cafes
Nothing escapes my eagle eyes
An almost naughty smile will truly meet your gaze
I do exactly as I like
I did not leave you all alone
The temptation was too great
And since you have entered my zone
I do not need to debate
Cause I’ve been sitting here all night
Feeling good about myself
I have been appointed to a nice room with a view
Maybe you deserved it more than me
I have decided to stay for a night or two
Just feeling good about myself
I’ve been lying here all life
Feeling good about myself
I have been appointed to a nice room with a view
Maybe you deserved it more than me
I have decided to stay for a day or two
Just feeling good about myself
I have been appointed to this nice room with a view
No one has deserved it more than me
I have decided to stay for a life or two
Just feeling good about myself

Nicely done, Peter. I listened to both YT videos. This is an excellent production. That whistle is hauntingly beautiful. Love your vocal!
