I've wanted to do a Stratovarius cover for a long time but didn't have the vocal range to get the high notes (the highest note is an F5 in the harmonies). There are still a few rough spots where my voice breaks a little but I am quite proud how this one turned out. 0:00 Intro 1:02 1. Verse 1:51 1. Chorus 4:09 Higher Chorus

    *Stargazing* We see the sun go down on every single day Above the plains of sand the stars will shine our way Behold the night unfold with beauty and with grace The clouds give way to wind, never losing faith The clock runs restless, never waiting - breathless Our trail is endless, every day we sense this We watch the world unfold in starlight a dream within its own True shape is a form beyond our insight unleash the great unknown No drop of water left, no sight of life ahead The scorching path of heat, the sun above our heads But soon the night arrives - a soothing melody, Of wind and rain to come, our call of destiny The clock runs restless, never waiting - breathless. Our trail is endless, every day we sense this. Death awaits the pilgrim, tame this land relentless. Only time will tell if what we seek is madness.

    *The Man Who Saved The World* It’s 1983 Cold War is heating up again, the tension’s rising high between east and west Just a few weeks ago a plane has been shot down - insane A strike will come and it will be the last Flashing screens in bright red colour Missile launch was just discovered It’s only one it makes no sense They would send more in an offense But if it’s true this world will end He’s running out of time, the threat must be reported But the numbers don’t add up, the computer lies He’s ordering commands, trying to calm his soldiers He’s making up his mind, while the superiors wait They would set this world on fire If he’s wrong, he’ll die a liar As he calls there’s a second alert More rockets fly, how will it end? Stanislav Petrov he’s the man who saved the world Stanislav Pertov unknown hero, unknown hero It’s 2022 and war is raging on again A madman’s ego trip is paid in blood and tears We need cool levelled heads to avert a global crisis, Someone like Stanislav, to save the world again - once again

    *Drowning Again* The coast is clear There’s no sight of distant memories here See the future lie ahead - don’t fear Just board the ship and wipe away your tears Keep afloat Ride the waves and steer this troubled boat Evade the storms They cannot harm you if you’re in control THE CONSTANT TIDE IS WEARING DOWN YOUR SUBSTANCE YOU’RE LOSING GRIP FEEL A FAMILIAR TUG FROM BELOW Life’s an ocean full of wonders To keep you wondering Why is this sea so full of dangers? Lurking down below Why am I drowning again? Feels like I’m lost in a sea of emotions Dragging me down to the ground They’ll never keep me down As life keeps pushing around and Dragging me down to the ground Swim ashore It’s not the end if you can’t fight no more Accept the course And you will sail the sea without remorse The waves keep rolling, a play unfolding Right before your eyes Time keeps floating, life’s evolving Just open up your eyes and see

    Oh man I am really lost here. I've been listening to this as well as my other recordings back and forth. Sometimes I got the feeling that the vocals are quite good or at least I am getting somewhere. But then often times after mixing and tweaking for hours when listening to them again the vocals just sound like shit - thin, brittle and out of tune... 😖 A little feedback would be much appreciated but anyway, I am still too stubborn to give up. 😁
