Pegasus Airlines

By Cosmic Cairns on July 10, 2024 9:38 pm

I always thought it would be fun to ride on a Pegasus and so I imagined a commercial airline that offers just that option.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________


As night falls we begin our journey
Our way's lit up by pale moonlight
Silver clouds gather round the mountains
Thick walls but they won't hinder our flight

Fields of stars shine big and brightly
Stretching onward infinitely
Constellations point the way towards
Far flung islands sheathed in mist and
Filled with broken ruins

Strap in and hang onto the bridle
Might see some turbulence this evening
If you feel cold we have warm blankets
Feel free to sit back and start dreaming

Pegasus airlines is pleased to
Take you to your destination
If you look toward the horizon
You may see a comet glowing
As it whizzes by

And now we'll be descending shortly
We hope your travels have been pleasant
If you should find a fallen feather
Take and consider it a present

When the time comes for your return
We'll be right here at your service
As we rinse off in the waterfalls
Cascading from the cliffs
Into the shimmering sea

This song meanders along nice and slow, into a nice long song that never feels "too long."  Good job!

our jourNEEEEEEEYYYYY heart
here we go!
really into your singing, and the cello adds so much

A magic waltz that takes us through space. Was that a real violin at the intro? Or playing very high lines with the cello? I really like the melody with its nostalgic feel!

i see what jwh did there tongue  Love the cello as it gives the waltzy feel a bit of an old west sound.  But the vocals and harmonies take that ride into the skies.  Really pleasing chorus with your vocals and the whole orchestration.  Nice work!

I had an extremely pleasant travel. I highly recommend this airline.

Nice flight smile. Sounds like they are very human and care about the customer. I really love this track and the middle-eight and the following guitar solo are really good and perfect for the track. The vocal harmonies are a great thing too…

Thanks!  Sometimes it feels right to just go meandering.

Thanks!  I need to make sure I'm showing my cello some love this year.  It's easier in a lot of ways to just find some synth sound, but I think it always ends up worth it when I pull my cello out.

It's a real cello playing high.  I do have a violin around here somewhere.  It's been forever since I've pulled it out and I'm sure it's horrifically out of tune, but it's not like it doesn't have tuners on it.  I should pull it out sometime for funsies.

Thanks!  Yeah I can see a bit of that old west sound you mention.

Just like the cello, it seems to take a good bit of effort to do vocal harmonies, but I think it's pretty much always worth it.

"a-ddition-al bag-agge costs-a-feeeee"

lol

this is a great "floating in the clouds" track - love the time signature and feel of the strum
like ocean and sky at the same time

wait, are the blankets pre-heated???

Airlines always find ways to ding you for extra.  Here's hoping this one's different.  And I would hope those blankets are pre-heated.  I bet it gets pretty cold flying on a winged horse at night.
