Melancholy song about being stranded on the moon alone.
I dragged a microphone up from the basement to record on the upright. Just pressed record and messed around for awhile, then overdubbed some stuff over it.
What is this place that I’m on?
Where have the other humans gone?
Did I forget my right and wrong?
Or has all of the meaning gone?
You took for granted what you had
Even the things that might seem bad
Although it was no perfect place
You couldn’t help falling from grace
Now I’m living in a hole
This crater place has killed my soul
Now I’m living in a hole
It’s dark and I’m feeling so cold

Perfect moonbase stranded chords and melody! I think stranded in space should be a genre in itself? Kind of getting some James Bond theme vibes too! Overall great sound and production.

I'm getting a bit of a Bowie vibe here, what with double-tracking in space. The upright really lends a lot of ambiance. Ooh, I love the sound and prominence of that bass. And that improvised ending makes me happy.

The chords really feel like space!
Love how you keep the lyrics in the "key" of space with the "crater place" line! Consistent and very cool!

Nice chord progression, sounds like an Air's vibe. Great song!
