Hello there! :) Not so much time has passed and I created a new song!! That's why I want to know your opinion about this. Feel free to say anything!

Thank you in advance!  :)



Lyrics:

So strange
I'm like in a fog
I can't hear you clear
This city is under control
As if nothing's here
Where did everyone go?
Are they home?
I feel lonely
It's true
I need something new
I need something new

Listen, listen to me carefully
There're thousands of walls
Not a single exit
I'm sneaking, you won't notice me
Be alert if you want to be free
I'm missing the sounds
No voice's around
Round and round
I'm stepping on the ground
I'm in a teacup
In this empty club
Dnd
Don't laugh
I just need to stop
(Need to stop)

So strange
I'm like in a fog
I can't hear you clear
This city is under control
As if nothing here
Where did everyone go?
Are they home?
I feel lonely
It's true
I need something new
I need something new

Maybe it also just doesn't make sense
I feel on my own even you close at hand
My character's strange as the area there
Wish I could burn it with a pale blue flame
Poisoning you or poisoning air
Wondering, everything looks like a jail
Wanna have a world visa if I can
Though the government wants me to have another plan
I don't have another plan

So strange
I'm like in a fog
I can't hear you clear
This city is under control
As if nothing here
Where did everyone go?
Are they home?
I feel lonely
It's true
I need something new
I need something new

So strange
I'm like in a fog
I can't hear you clear
This city is under control
As if nothing here
(Mm, huh)

So strange
I'm like in a fog
I can't hear you clear
This city is under control
As if nothing here
Where did everyone go?
Are they home?
I feel lonely
It's true
I need something new

So strange
I'm like in a fog
I can't hear you clear
This city is under control
As if nothing here
Where did everyone go?
Are they home?
I feel lonely
It's true
I need something new
I need something new

Brilliant, as ever
well done
I like the nasty bass n sweet vocals, nice contrast
very articulate musically and lyrically
truly you have a wealth of talent.

press and get famous. why not?
 Good luck
It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

Don't eat the yellow snow

And there you have it.

Hi - great song again. Beat is excellent and I really like the interplay between your various voices. Great song concept, lots to think about society, environment, freedom and government...

In a couple of places the vocal is quite distorted so it can mask some of the words (e.g. 1'40" the word "this").

The bridge lyrics are great, in particular the "world visa" section, but it seemed maybe there was a little too much going on. Perhaps it could all be a slow section with some lines omitted. Just a thought.

But it's cool and very well put together - as usual!

What a brilliant and catchy song! Love the vocals and the rhythmic intensity. Great production too. Sounds really commercial to me.

Hello Maya,

There is a hypnotic quality to your voice. You are at your best when you perform a larger musical interval, taking us from a lower note to a higher note.  This is obviously very accomplished and demonstrates your willingness to experiment with different moods and vocal phrasing.  I'd really like to hear a song that is packed with emotion from you and of course, you have so much skill to deliver a song that speaks directly from the heart. 

Quality songwriting once again. 

Paul

@Maya Clars Another one of your great songs Maya. Strong but melodic vocals as usual and an excellent track musically. Someone else used the word 'catchy'..and, yeah, that's exactly what it is. A great video too. You need that for this kind of music. You deserve to be successful. Your music is current and you deliver it really well. :)

Another banger here from @Maya Clars . Melodies with a super modern production. Excellent song again..again.. its sickening. :)  The video should have had another "viewer discretion warning" for inducing huge bouts of songwriting jealousy. Great stuff.

Hey Maya, cool track and enjoyed the video too (looks like it was fun to make too).  About the track I particularly like 1) the sudden start (no time wasted!), 2) the hypnotic vocal melody in the chorus, 3) the teacup line in the lyrics (nicely surreal).  I think this song would sound great played REALLY LOUD in a club.
It's all too beautiful.

@Maya Clars  Tune!!! Great fidgety bass and rhythm as a backdrop to clever complex lyrics, difficult to wrap your mouth around all those words- I had trouble keeping up reading the lyrics in time! 😁 really like the vocals and the way the cleaner lower vox weaves around the the higher more filtered vocal, super cool effect! It’s an awesome catchy pop track!👌👌
Sound formed in a vacuum may seem a waste of time...
