Awesome track, great vocals and ambience! 🎤👌🎶

Love this laid back vibe! Very cool track!

Excellent performance and pretty cool song title! I have rescued so many stray cats! Cheers friends!

really cool track original & interesting Sound ☆☆☆☆☆

🔥 It’s giving 80s new wave vibes the likes of Depeche Mode & the cure, with a hint of David Bowie. I love this sound!

Is That What You Do For Fun

This song speaks of hope and the importance of loved ones, especially when the world shows its dark side. 
I guess this single can be classified mainly as alternative rock/ singer-songwriter.
It has been recorded, mixed and mastered in February 2022 at Rare Elements’ own studio in Tampere, Finland.
The song has been composed, written and arranged by Harri Sarpavaara. He plays all instruments and sings on the single. He has also recorded, mixed and mastered this single.

Tone of the Day

If I ever had pride in your eyes
It was the lies you said to me
That made it die inside of me
If I ever had pride in your eyes
It was the lies you said to me
That made it die inside of me
----------------------------------------------------
Hold out, it's running down my back
What I stand for in myself, I'm feeling under attack
On the edge now, on the edge now
Shut down, the peace inside of me
Inner self is all but here, it's not a pleasant scene
You see now? You see now
----------------------------------------------------
Drifting, further out
Away from your vibes that you're putting out
The bad energy, it flows
Stuck out in the storm
Caught in the rampage that you have poured on
Me now, me now
----------------------------------------------------
If I ever had pride in your eyes
It was the lies you said to me
That made it die inside of me
If I ever had pride in your eyes
It was the lies you said to me
That made it die inside of me
----------------------------------------------------
Prides gone from the way
You always beat me down and you do it again
I said high strung, the games you play
I always get back up just to do it again
----------------------------------------------------
Now I'm seeking solace
Inner thoughts, provoking words, I need some self defense
Secure, how? Secure, how?
Tasteless, the way you do me wrong
In myself, I'm all but here, oh yeah, I'm fucking gone
A ghost cloud, a ghost cloud
----------------------------------------------------
Drifting, further out
Away from your vibes that you're putting out
The bad energy, it flows
----------------------------------------------------
If I ever had pride in your eyes
It was the lies you said to me
That made it die inside of me
----------------------------------------------------
If I ever had pride in your eyes
It was the lies you said to me
That made it die inside of me
If I ever had pride in your eyes
It was the lies you said to me
That made it die inside of me
----------------------------------------------------
Prides gone from the way
You always beat me down and you do it again
I said high strung, the games you play
I always get back up just to do it again

From the Album "Short Songs For Tall Minds" (2022)
A song dedicated to everyone's favorite outdoor chair, the monobloc. So many good times and memories sitting in these things. Functional design meets a simple manufacturing process. Unfortunately, they are made with polypropylene plastic, which will be around for thousands of years. These are like ecological disaster zombies that will never die.  Just look around, they're everywhere. But hey, this is a good time song about them. Thanks for listening!

 Lyrics:
When I come home
When the work is through
I just want to get in my backyard
In the neighborhood
I need some backyard sky
I need some friends of mine
Put out all the drinks
And give it a little time
Get the cable
Run it out from the living room
Out to the backyard
And over by the pool
Plug in the boom box
Over by the slide
Get ready
For the rising tide
Sitting in my Monobloc
My favorite outdoor chair
I am impressionistic for functional design

You know, these chairs
When it comes to history
They'll be around much longer
Than you and me
Alex says you need to go outside
If you want to drink liquor and smoke
Sit in my rich man's plastic throne
Even though I'm broke
(Broke, broke, broke)
Hollow in my Monobloc
My favorite outdoor chair
 Monobloc (Yeah!)
It's lightweight, like this song
And the music in the air
Sitting in my Monobloc
Ubiquitous
And everywhere
In my Monobloc
Monobloc...

Two million kisses are going your way 
and when you wake up
You'll remember my name

All through the years I felt you beside me
And when I woke up I remembered my dreams

If you feel alone hold on to me
our memories are just like our dreams
Falling like leaves, Falling like leaves

Three million wishes and just one remains
A light in the dark guiding the way

All through the years I felt you beside me
And when I woke up I remembered my dreams

If you feel alone hold on to me
our memories are just like our dreams
Falling like leaves, Falling like leaves

Searching for light with you by my side
Holding me tight
All through this life searching for light
with you by my side
Holding me tight

Our Dreams

Autumn Dream (2021) Anthology CD4 Track 01

"Lost" is a joint effort with Tainted Icarus (@taintedicarus, check out his stuff!), a good friend of mine I've made over these past few weeks while working on this and "The Tear Remix". As much as he may not want to take enough of his due credit for it, this is his baby, and I'm just the catalyst that started it on the path to the finish line. These lyrics came to me making coffee one morning, and even before I knew how to structure them within the music, I jotted this down in about ten mins. It is hands down the most rewarding poem/set of lyrics I have ever written.

At some point or another, we all know this feeling...to be lost. Whether it's from confusion, doubt, or just misunderstanding, to live this life is to find one's self lost at some point or another. Sometimes, you just want to leave and lose yourself. The premise here is pretty basic. A man (or woman for that matter) essentially goes on a walk and never comes back.

When I've left this world behind me
Don't you even try to find me
Maybe I've made it to the coast
Found myself a boat
And set out on the open sea

When I've left it all behind me
Don't you dare try to remind me
Maybe I found myself a book
Took a good long hard look
And then found a fantasy

If you find the crack at all
When you open up the hole 
What you thought was so small
Has taken complete control
It's different for you and me
When you find you're lost and gone
You escape this dream, and then you see
You were always lost all along

When I've left this world behind me
Stopped letting the rut bind me
Maybe I walked into the woods
Left my loved ones for good 
Found solitude with the trees

When I've lost my sanity 
At that point where I just cracked
You know I never even knew 
All the things that I could do
I am never coming back

When I've left it all behind me 
Don't you even try to find me
I may be lost deep in the woods
Or be dead and gone for good
Maybe one day you'll see
One day you'll see
See!
