a brilliant opening and the rest has a comforting and familiar feel

Peaceful start. Good to hear you again Alfonso.

Rocks out at the end there. Love the fingerpicking at the start.

interesting and entertaining song with the cadence of a professional

Very progressive.... Reminded me of Yes, a bit of Supertramp, with a great "regional" acoustic performance. The synth came in to change everything, I noticed that that entrance changed the whole context, in a few seconds. Vocals, in second, strings later on. It's all progressive, running in the song veins!

The guitar on this one is really good I like the vocals too

Through thick and thin, everyone needs those whom they can count on. As in life, the music can get dark and then the light shines through, as we rise to go on with the help of our friends and loved ones.

As you may notice, the cover art harkens back to a familiar cover from 1973 and that is intentional, because Andrea and Rebecca are strongly influenced by music from that time period. Many fans of 8000 Miles’ first album, Aggregate, have remarked on that influence. The title Crystal Confetti represents the clarity 8000 Miles is honing in their duo’s style and the contrast of weighted moods and flying inspirations.

The entire album, Crystal Confetti, has been released on Bandcamp. Go to https://8000miles.bandcamp.com to check it out and follow 8000 Miles on Bandcamp to get first notices of new releases.

I don't want to destroy my first Demo-Upload. 
It is so sweet with the background laughing. So i create a new Version of this song.
Please check out the collab of this song with R-Soul. He lovingly added drums and backing vocals to this song.


Lyrics:
Sometimes things will happen, that can never be explained 
As by magic, they will stagger fall to the ground in pain.
Like a statue, anchored to its grounding 
They’ve lost the touch.

The stone you picked up at the shore on your holiday.
Has lain under water for many, many centuries
Moved only at low tide by the waves and the current.
now gets out of balance

And the things that fall off your shelf
Make me think about myself
How it must feel when there, where once was my place
All that's remains of me is this empty space
 
And while I fall off your shelf.
Pass all these things of beauty and grace
That you have placed with your skill for design and flair
As if between you and them would be a love affair

Everything arranged like a map of your mind 
mirrored on the wooden boards I left behind.
Each place was chosen with precission and care.
Some in a way that no one else would dare.
Some do not seem to fit together at all.
Without you, i feel so small

And when i reenter my place
you can see the tears that run down my face.
Of Joy and Fear 
I swore to you my dear
i will never leave this place here, without you again

Song about having a partner who is a bit cuckoo with the jealousy. As they will be.

LYRICS

I can see you in the mirror and your face is looking back strange.
And your hand on the pillow makes me shudder as its sliding past my face. 

I've tried to provide a distraction.
You're in need of constant action.
I've tried to tell you there's no-thing.
Quickly becoming a no-win. 

I know all your little accusations, 
you dont even have to say.
That voice in your head, he did this, is never gonna go away. 

Oh, the things I haven't done are repeating.
The sound your making is just bleating.
I can't get me any satisfaction.
You're out there looking for action. 

The jealousy festers and takes over your brain.
But all your friends are out there, acting just the same. 

Not a single one of them happy.
Not anyone of them laughing.
Your half assed plan of distraction.
Was voided by my inaction. 

I can see you in the mirror and your face is looking back strange.
And your hand on the pillow makes me shudder as its sliding past my face. 

I've tried to provide a distraction.
You're in need of constant action.
I've tried to tell you there's no thing.
Quickly becoming a no-win.

Vultures

Just another old one man band unsigned musician who sings and plays a little guitar, bass & drums and fools around on the piano; expert in writing songs that usually disappear with the wind, and in composing musical flops.  Folks say that I´m a composer, but I think they´re wrong: I just download the music I hear and feel in the atmosphere and give it back to the people. I don´t do a living from music; I ´m an attorney and horse breeder who gets noisy when I download the music I hear and feel.Thanks for checking out my page and listening the noise I´ve been doing for the past 50 and so years when I get musical.  I´m based in Bogotá, Colombia, and always open to do collabs.
