Some Alice in Wonderland themed fun.
Narration by Sir John Gielgud.
I've never been the dreamer
Thinking of things that are way beyond the here and now
But now that I've seen her
I can believe there's maybe something's there somewhow
She had me following just like that
They say curiosity killed the cat
I'm down down down down
I'm deeper down the rabbit hole
I'm down down down down
I'm deeper down the rabbit hole
I don't know just what I will find
It's just an adventure
Way beyond the things we take for granted day by day
Will it lead me to find her?
The opportunity is something I can't throw away
Now she's here and now she's gone
Like the sunset on a summer lawn
I'm down down down down
I'm deeper down the rabbit hole
I'm down down down down
I'm deeper down the rabbit hole
I don't know just what I will find
Well now I'm a believer
I've seen so many things and got stories to tell
Now I'll never leave her
I'm in deeper than a penny thrown into a well
I'm down down down down
I'm deeper down the rabbit hole
I'm down down down down
I'm deeper down the rabbit hole

Your layers of guitars is amazing. Also the verse lyric with it's different line lengths is fascinating how well that works. You really have a good sense of song structure and composition. Great story line. It also really rocks!

Great titleā¦ excellent song! Great chorus and the Alice in Wonderland artwork is killer too. The ride cymbal in the samples is awesome. This drum package is super realistic. Nice samples of the reading.. is that you or is it borrowed? Man so good. If it is you you should be reading for BBC TV!

Great arrangement and mix, especially the middle part catches the ear. And oh boy, aren't we all very deep in the rabbit hole already.

This is so much fun. I'm hearing a very strong Beatles influence in this, particularly in the verses. And the production, complete with the choice of Gielgud reading the text in the middle section, is something I bet Sir George Martin would approve of. Lovely stuff.

Delicious. Love that chorus especially, chords, how it hangs. Great theme. Awesome bounce. And love the switch up slow down for the narration section. Beautifully balanced production. I was harmonizing along.

Very different to my ear! I love Alice usage, i have done a whole Alice musical. This is interesting indeed i hear the who influences for sure! Good song

Nice write: falling in love can indeed be just like Alice's tumble down the hole. Fun to pull in the spoken-word from the story itself.
The subtle (maybe unintended?) references to the Monkee's "I'm a Believer" add to the fun.

Tight and right.... nice.

Is that a picked banjo in the music? The overall arrangement of instruments gives a wonderful (wonderland) feel. The voiceover reminds of parts of The Dark Side of Moon.

"I'm in deeper than a penny thrown into a well"... Dood! this song is killer. Love the structure of the verses with the quick lines followed by the rapid-fire, longer lines. The chorus really pops. Love the hook! Good write, mate.
