This is really fracking good song, B.D.! Absolutely on every level. I was only part way through the listen when I realised you must have put a heck of a lot of work into it and only later did I read your blurb about it. In this song and previous ones you have a magic knack - though it's through hard work as well as talent - of making AI vocals sound 100% real, when nearly everything else I hear sounds fake and instantly loses my interest. This song just sounds 100% professional, though you'll soon have stop using the "no fans" part of your YT blurb!

Re the lyrics, I totally relate to and agree with them, though from a different perspective. In my early teens I began asking all of the 'big' questions - I wanted to know why there was life - and I was 19 when I first experienced the Divine--in-All and in the following 55 years- in which I've studied virtually all spiritual traditions, various psychological models and a lot more besides - I've had more profound spiritual experiences than all of the truly spiritual persons I've ever met put together. So I class myself as a lower case 'g' gnostic (a knower) and in 2007 when I first started using social media (the Yahoo 360° site and then Multiply and others before they all vanished - FB and others came years later - I created my own Way for me, Waoism, which I class as something not serious which I take seriously, and equally something very serious which I don't take seriously. It's what I call a "genuine and authorised Act of Controlled Folly"! In simple terms I define Waoism in my YT 'about', and a part of the Controlled Folly is that Waoism being my Way for me makes me equally the most evolved, mediocre and dumbest Waoist sage ever, as well as the best, most mediocre and dumbest student there is as there can never be another Waoist. I have 5 Waoist videos on YT which are only ever seen by a very few FB contacts, but I wouldn't want to post then here with BiaB music as the wordage and the images are more important than the soundtrack, plus I wouldn't want to offend anyone. But risking that, my Waoist Adage #59: is "Believing is the booby prize." Though not believing is just believing the opposite, thus Adage #85 is "Knowing that you don't know keeps you on the path of knowledge." I'll quote a quote from Ibn 'Arabi, a 14th Century Sufi who eventually refereed to himself as a gnostic, which I left on one of Beth's recent posts:
"My heart has become capable of every form: it is a pasture for gazelles and a convent for Christian monks, and a temple for idols and the pilgrim's Ka'aba and the tables of the Tora and the book of the Qur'an. / I follow the religion of Love: whatever way Love's camels take, that is my religion and faith."
