Hans,
Excellent arrangement & driving rhythm. You definitely stepped up the game in your recording skills. Well mixed and listens well.
Theme? I agree it is sad to see what is happening around us. It's unfortunate that people forget history... or in many cases simply have no desire to learn what "cult of personality", or "cult of the leader" really means. To give you a first hand perspective of someone who attended US school system, there is almost nothing in high school curriculum concerning the subject.
Thank you for sharing,
Misha.

Cool tune my friend! Another protest song on the forum! Yay! I get it super brother, down with the man! Big Pharma has go to go! But man, I am so sorry to hear the wrong people voted in your last election. That sucks. I feel sorry for you dude. Well, maybe next time! Great song! You go tell it like it is boss man!

Hi Laurent, Marty, Janne and Scott, It took some time to reply, but I have enjoyed your reactions a lot. Thanks for that! My dear Birchwood. you are not alone in sharing this impression. Unfortunately there is always a guy to open the gas valve saying: it's the boss who told me to do it! Bravo for your song.
Laurent Hi Laurent, in one of my previous versions of the song I aimed on that guy you mentioned. I called the song You Coward, but than I changed the perspective of the song. That was when Gemany and Rumania had elections. (Ultra) Right was in favor and a guy named Vance promoted it all. It's the voters who have to use their brains. And thanks for your 'bravo'! "It seems the world has lost its mind." Yeah, not the best time to tap into the collective consciousness. Best thing is the songs that come out of times like this. I'd rather talk about that. Now this one is really good, and it lets us know there are still smart folks who can make good music. Like Bob TM said, a big embarrassment. Hello Marty, You know I mentioned your 'golden' tongue before. You know how to make good compliments wrapped in your nice comment on the song and sphere of it. Thank you for that! Your laidback blues made me feel better despite the sad message. I felt like I was with you in the car and hoping the sea would calm me more... Let's hope that reason will rise from the ruins left behind by clowns and their blind followers.
Another pleasant arrangement with nice chords, all instruments support your drive, The softer verses and the more powerful chorus show nice contrast. Brent solo works perfectly here. Your voice is strong as always and I really enjoyed those harmonies.
Janne Hi Janne, well joining me in that car could have ended tragically if you read the last line of the song again. And I don't want that to happen to you. Ah, but not to me either. So we stay outside the car and discuss all these things on a bench, ok? and thanks for your very nice compliments on the song itself! Excellent timing for the song Hans. The current situation we are in is very disturbing. I understand the need for change and trying to improve the situations we live in but I don't understand.. Where are all the normal people that could sit down and have a conversation and talk things out. It seems for the last 20 years the lunatics are taking over the asylum. So for the rant. The song was excellent.. Hello Scott, thanks for your reaction on the song. I am very glad the Canadians stay so firm in this issue! I would invite you to join the EU (when we get rid of Hungary). But maybe there is something good happening too. You can see that support for the Right (and Musk, Tesla) is decreasing more and more. Also here in my country, luckily. But about the song itself? Thanks for your so nice compliments! Have a nice day everyone, Hans

Nice one Hans,
I'm lucky enough to live in a country that has compulsory voting. All fools vote but so do all the other groups - there's a balance.
Fools rarely notice their error - K/D Effect I suppose - unless those errors have a significant, rapid impact for the worse upon their lives.
I enjoyed the song & the theme.
Cheers

Hi Scott Storm, Brain and Beth, Thanks for your nice comments on the song and content. I'm very happy with it, but I also hope things will change the good way... Such a cool sound from your instrumentation along with that unique sound in the vocal harmony. The band you put together is a treat to listen to. The chorus hits the nail on the head. Hello Scott, you gave me a real present with your comment! Very nice of you. Thanks! The politics of the world, summarized in a single protest song. About the same in every country. Your lyrics express what pretty much everyone is thinking about the situation right now, and they do it really well. In some places the vocals sound a bit over-processed, but I guess that's intentional. Good song ![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/images/icons/default/thumbs_up.gif) Hi Brain, yes, there is a lot of turmoil in a lot of countries. How many will loose Democracy? Hopefully the actions of the orange man bring back the need of urgency to vote for the 'good guys and girls'. We'll see about that, but I noticed some of that here in my country, so hopefully our bad government can be changed! I was thinking of the vocals are 'overprocessed' at some places. I haven't heard that. So, no, it wasn't intentional. I just recorded my own voice as I always do and then some bg-vocals. If you want to, show me where you heard it in the song. Hi Hans, sometimes I don't have much to offer about the music but this did evoke some strong feelings. You certainly captured the perplexity and pain of the deterioration. Wasn't sure if the driver intended to drive into the ocean or simply be by that glorious expanse of nature that returns sanity to the mind. It's a good cliffhanger. Was it intentional? Hi Beth, thanks for your comment! And I think you are the first mentioning those last lines from the lyrics. Very good from you! Yes, it was intentional . The words " Pressing the gas", and "I think I hear the sea" are kind of an underscore to that cliffhanger. I wish you all a very nice day and lots of creativity, Hans
