I'm on the road today, saw this in my subscription box and asked my mom to play it over the car speakers. I am just in awe. What a majestic, breathtaking rendition of one of the loveliest (and often overlooked) Thomas songs. There is an ethereal quality, a breathiness almost, and a lightness of touch with the instruments that makes this soar, and mixing elements of the instrumental from the episode lends it so much of that Thomas-y charm and life.. You are such a master. Keep up the phenomenal work!
One of the most underrated Thomas songs, and I'm glad you even gave it justice remixing it with the music from its debut episode James and The Red Balloon! I absolutely love this, it's a truly breathtaking rendition of the original song! Great job man! I almost cried from how beautiful this sounds!
The Fat Controller was right. The engines were busier than ever. Taking holidaymakers to and from the airfield. Whenever James sees the red balloon, he whistles and toots. And sometimes, when he’s asleep at night, James dreams he can fly too. Just like the red balloon.
There's so much to see on the Island of Sodor Waterfalls and windmills, valleys of green All this and more on the Island of Sodor Colourful carpet for all to see People happily ride round the Island Flying so high in a big red balloon From mountains high and down to the seaside Everyone wishing they'll all come back soon High in the red balloon Up above looking down on everyone You can touch the moon High in the red balloon Floating and spinning and climbing and rising Way up high, look see the red balloon Float over castles and church spires below them Cricket being played on the quaint village green Everyone waves at the big red balloon Prettiest picture they've ever seen James sees the red balloon Floating high, wishing he could be like him High in the sky He waits where the river bends Waiting to see his friend, hoping he will come again Wishing and hoping and waiting and dreaming of flying high Just James and the red balloon James and the red balloon
Beautiful, just beautiful! It's apparent that you've worked especially hard on this instrumental, and you without a doubt do The Red Balloon justice. I can't quite say I liked the original song at first, but as I've gotten older it's definitely grown on me. Now I'd personally say it's one of my favorite Thomas songs ever, definitely in the top 10 for me!
This is absolutely gorgeous. There's no other word that I feel sums it up perfectly. It sounds like the end credits song where the ending is that of "All At Sea" when they're looking at the sunset. The only sad thing is I know I'll never be able to do anything near as good as this. You've excelled yourself Mavis - I like all your work but this really takes the cake. It's beautiful.

You know you can tell the amount of blood and sweat poured into this when there is a premiere for a instrumental.

Good old Red Balloon. One of the last truly good Thomas songs...
could of been a perfect end to classic Thomas and the series in general

I weep nearly every time at this version.

I cant wait. This was one of my favorite vocal songs
The best piece of music I've heard in this community
There's so much to see on the Island of Sodor
Waterfalls and windmills, valleys of green
All this and more on the Island of Sodor
Colourful carpet for all to see
People happily ride round the Island
Flying so high in a big red balloon
From mountains high and down to the seaside
Everyone wishing they'll all come back soon
High in the red balloon
Up above looking down on everyone
You can touch the moon
High in the red balloon
Floating and spinning and climbing and rising
Way up high, look see the red balloon
Float over castles and church spires below them
Cricket being played on the quaint village green
Everyone waves at the big red balloon
Prettiest picture they've ever seen
James sees the red balloon
Floating high, wishing he could be like him
High in the sky
He waits where the river bends
Waiting to see his friend, hoping he will come again
Wishing and hoping and waiting and dreaming of flying high
Just James and the red balloon
James and the red balloon
I ABSOLUTELY adore this! It's a fantastic mix of variants that feels grand and rich in sound. Made my night, amazing work!

This made me teary eyed. Thank you for this.
