      Pressing "0" on my numpad at the beginning in rhythm with you saying "Song Generator" is more than vaguely inspiring me to loop it and add all sorts of nasty drums and keys to turn it into a banger.

      Rotten the snowman in smiling friends becomes a waves, so when you said they are waves in the sky I immediately thought of that character being in heaven or something. Idk, clouds in the ocean, I guess clouds are like stored memories, like on a cloud on a computer. So clouds in the ocean means like forgotten memories or putting the bad things in the past behind.

    Great worship song guys! As someone playing on the worship team tomorrow it definitely sounds like CCM not all CCM is that fluffy in lyrics but the sound is definitely Christian praise song

    As any piece of art is always a fresh canvas for recipient to paint on, you were - from the very first minute - set up to fail. In the best way possible.

    the song has quite some potential, it’s the type of song you play last on your concert and the crowd still keeps singing, while the band has left already. not quite „hey jude“ yet, but also not too far off.

    In all this nothingness, I still find meaning in the sound. Also, Rob's lower register really suited this song, it sounded really warm when he first came in!

    6:49 his handwriting is so cartoonishly cool like you could make a font out of that

    Can I just say, as cheesy as this is, it is also genius.

    Definitely fluffy, but I don’t know why I feel the Smooth was lost somewhere. Not sure what it would mean and the song was well done either way. Great job, love the format.
