Nocturnal e-Mission to Mars

Liner Notes
Whoa! I thought the cut-off was at Midnight but lo and behold, I can post one more.
This was one I abandoned early on because I had the events outlined and some good lines written but I never found the energy to write the lyrical storyline for the epic sci-fi, political thriller, Laurel and Hardy epic that I intended it to be. But, I'll put that on my to-do list for next FAWM.
Comments
This is my favorite title ever. As Dick Clark once said. “ It s got a great beat but a bit hard to dance to.” But I love the musical mystery here. Nice bonus track!
Great playing on this and great production too. I listened imagining the Laurel and Hardy epic that might be one day. We all wait in anticipation.
You always seem to really crank them out at the end. Three in one day. I saw that two of your new ones were posted right as I was turning off the lights last night after doing my last one and you almost got me going on getting out one more idea. Then I check in today and you have one more. Damn.
I could totally see this as a sci-fi political thriller. I hear a bit of Syd Barrett Piper-era Floyd here. An interstellar overdrive of sorts. Works great as is. Feels like it takes you on an adventure and is a great way to put a period on this year's FAWM. It would be cool to see it kick off next year's FAWM too.
You had a really great FAWM. I'm wanting to go back now and listen to the songs in order like a real album. Really liked your style shifts. Feels like you have a lot of material that could duke it out for placement on the next record. Nice work.
I always appreciate the close listens you give my songs as well. So glad we've kept doing this all of these years. Looking forward to catching up soon.
