Contrary to what Dave said, there actually is another song with Anthropocene in the title. Could this be the start of an exciting new musical trend? ; That said, this offering can certainly stand tall in that ever-expanding catalog. Nice arrangement, good lyrics, well sung. Plus, ah-loo-min-ee-um!  Thanks for the research David. Appreciate your comments. Al-you-min-ee-um. Can't quite get aloominum. Strange how a common language can evolve and change given enough distance. Peter

What a cool tune I thought I was going to have to Google the title so thanks for the description.
First Leon’s vocal was just excellent. He has a great story telling voice kind of like Floyd.
Janice’s background vocal were So complimentary.
There two voice blend so well together
That sax was a nice touch. Your playing off the Sax licks was so well done. Your solo was excellent as well. Loved the tone growly and gritty Perfect for the song Well done Thank you Scott! Janice

Peter,
This is such a cool song - love the vocals by Leon and backing with Janice. The production and track selection really grooves along...
Loved it!
Bob Hello Peter, Leon & Janice,
What a cool song! That bass line grabbed me right off. Great licks, Peter! Leon and Janice nailed the vocals - no surprise there. I doubt there's a subject about which a song cannot be written!Very original!
The piano track was one of the best I've heard from Real Tracks. I struggle with them - they're either too thin, too muddy or too muted - even after a good massage.
Great listen - thanks!
Alan Thanks for mentioning my small part in this production! J&B

Very well done!! I love the playful, sarcastic nature of the lyrics....kind of like "Ain't no time to wonder why, Whoopee, we're all going to die". The music is really cool....good job by all, and sax solo fits perfectly. Loved it!! Take care. Greg

Peter & Leon,
Very good write ( a little Dylanesque sarcasm in there especially in Leon`s vocals).
Lots of good lines - I really like these:
But take a look at good old spaceship earth
She may be blowing smoke but there are light years on the clock
Ignore the crazy talk about some crisis that is looming
There’s plenty more for you and me to dig out of this rock
The sax/guitar combination at the end sounds great.
Fun and educational at the same time!
Robert
Appreciate your comments Robert. Peter

Peter/Leon...
A great sound and a fun write. Nice use of the BAND! Good mix.
"I know we lost a frog or two
And a couple of Gorillas
But there are plenty more in zoos
To tantalise and thrill us"
Awesome!
Leon's vocals are always spot on. Really nice guitar.
Love that chick singer, too.
Nice.
Thanks floyd really appreciate all those comments.
Peter

Peter, Leon and Janice,
Mighty fine teamwork indeed!!!!
The very first word that came to mind when it started was "quirky" and that was quickly followed by "great groove" and "very engaging".
Ya gotta love those Geology Times for lyric inspiration! when you mentioned that, I found myself thinking: "I wonder if this will be rock or maybe in the style The Rolling Stones or...".
You took me totally by surprise. And I learnt heaps too!
Thank you all for the journey.
Noel
