Mr Robot Head Selection

A tribute to Richard Russell, who just wanted to fly high and get away from it all.

About: 

One of my first ever demos I recorded. This one is really all over the place recording wise, but I've always liked the song.

This song came to while listening to the story about a baggage handler who stole a plane and took it for a joy ride before crashing and well, he's erased. But not from history. Not now. This is his song. 

I tried to write the song around the original audio recording of the control tower speaking to Richard (The Baggage Handler) as they try to get him to land safely or speak some sense into him. 

If you haven't heard the story, you can find it online. Memorable quotes from the cockpit:

"Yeah, not quite ready to bring it down just yet. But holy smokes, I've got to stop looking at the fuel, because it's going down quick."

"I don't need that much help. I've played some video games before"

This song isn't glorifying what happened, just celebrating a life that was taken too early by deeper things we may experience ourselves.

Be kind always. Be courageous. Just not that courageous.

Fly forth, Sky King

Baggage Handler (Come D... Fly With Me) - The Original Demo

A work in progress. 

No clue why Alex Jones features in this, but he does. I mean, kids, Magellan is a lot cooler than Justin Bieber.

Unlock your inner potential. 

I wanna see who you truly are.

Update:

- finished a new version with some saucy leads. Consider this version the shortened radio unfriendly version…
