It was a little windy out.

It's been three-and-a-half years since I uploaded my first version of this song. Funny how it feels like only yesterday, but also like a lifetime has passed since then. This is and has always been one of my favorite arrangements/lyric covers that I've ever done, but I've never been too happy with the production on the old one. Whenever someone asks, "what's your favorite cover that you've done?" I'd always say something like, "Corridors of Time, but don't watch it because it's old and bad". Now I have a version that I can be proud of. Plus I think it's cool to see how far I've come as a producer/singer/guy when you juxtapose the new version with the old.
I always associate this cover with meeting my friend RichaadEB for the first time. I remember him showing up in the comments on that video back then and checking out his channel thereafter and being like "fuuuuuk, this guy is good". So when I started working on the redux of this song I knew I had to get him on it. And of course, he slayed his part. If you're familiar with his stuff, you know that he sticks to Prog Metal covers pretty stringently so this was a tad out of his comfort zone. Hmmm, maybe he should play acoustic solos a little more often, eh?? Also, go subscribe to him / richaadeb
But anyhoo, I hope you all dig this one. I put many, many hours into it and I personally think it may be the best video I've ever done.
Big thanks to my friend Rachel ( / thunderesque ) for filming the majority of this video and my buddy Matt for helping me get a few extra shots.
Also thanks to tha homie Ryan Lafford for contributing some percussion to this track. He plays a mean Udu and you should subscribe to him too. I recommend his cover of Schala's theme: • Chrono Trigger: Schala...
Fyi, my channel may be a little quiet over the next month or two because I'm about to dive headfirst into production on my new original album. I have most of the songs demo'd out, just need to start tracking all the instruments and vocals which will take a lot of time. I'll most likely still be uploading stuff, it just might be shorter songs and more spaced out uploads. I'll share updates about the album as soon as I have more to share!

LYRICS
Beyond the shroud
Paradise lies high upon the clouds
Can you hear the sound
Of the voices left on the ground?
Not worthy of a place among the enlightened ones
The curse will be condemned to the earth as the chosen reap the heavens
Oooo ooo ooooooooo oooooo ooo ooo oooooooo
And if you, too
Wield the power of the chosen few
They welcome you
To a place where your dreams come true
But at what cost? Is it worth losing everything?
The price of life lived in paradise is a forlorn future dying
