Okay, I'm MOSTLY looking for a vocalist, but I decided to open a seprate thread because I also need some input on the composition, some help with post-production - basically someone with vocals-experience to guide me through the motions.
The song is... I'll call it orchestral, though it's far from featuring a full orchestra. It's fairly minimalistic, at least the first half. The rest is still pretty tame. PM me if you're interested - I need a singer with a clear voice. And please link me to some of your work.
The song is about the crystal ponies, pre-cadence. Here're the lyrics, for your consideration.
SpoilerBroken empire:
The day begins, the sun is rising, All is well but something's missing We can't find our way back to The place where we are, standing, thinking, Of what's here and what is there And why isn't there anywhere Some thing on which to look and know Our life to live and way to go
And all is bright but nothing's clear And something's lurking and it's whispering in our ear -
No place, no purpose, no name No joy, no sadness, no shame We can't feel nor recall - I wish I knew who I am Despite my walking and talking I wasn't fully revived I think it's been a thousand years Since I could feel alive
The crystals sparkle in the light Through all the day and all the night - We watch with nothing else to do, We watch with empty eyes and hearts What is it we can't recall? What began this kingdom's fall? We would have found out if we could Bring ourselves to care at all
And all is bright but nothing's clear And something's lurking and it's whispering in our ear -
No place, no purpose, no name No joy, no sadness, no shame We can't feel nor recall - I wish I knew who I am. Despite my walking and talking I wasn't fully revived I think it's been a thousand years Since I could feel alive
And now the night is falling, and now the dark is growing, and there's the blackest silhouette And only now we're having Our one and only feeling - We... Are... A... Fraid...
