Barely There

I started out with this little acoustic driven idea that sort of morphed into something else without me totally realizing it was going to do that.  Can't believe we're already at week 50.  It seems like just a few weeks ago I was posting week 1.

In the air all around
There's something intangible
It's barely there hanging on
By the slightest of threads

If you look from the corner
Of your eyes you might catch
A glimpse of the elemental
Material in everything

great lyrics, love the phrasing. Great simple and beautiful backing track to the vocals. Love when song ideas morph and change into something unexpected I think that's what helps me out of rut, who knows what this could morph into!

A perfect 50! I played it 3 times in a row!

I love the vocalpart. I think, it might be unintentionally influenced by Brian Wilson and his divine melodies. The acoustics are beautiful too, especially the flute, the sweet bass and the guitars in stereo. Well done.

love when the warbled bass kicks in layered with the flute. Nicely done!

beautiful! i'm almost picking up some Zombies vibes, which is always welcome. Odessey & Oracle is an all-timer for me.

this is a really lovely & enchanting song, CC  heart

Lovely song with a lot of variety; seems like great sampling material for a WB with that CC-BY-NC license, unfortunately there are only two weeks left... 🤔
