Description:
This version of this one has been sitting around for some time...
I remember have finished the instrumental version on september 2006 and hand´t the guts to try vocals until the beggining of this year.I shuffled my voice on an array of EQ and effects to mask some imperfections and there are some glitches here and there due to this...be nice to this one.
Its previous title was "Pulverized" and featured some samples from the instrumental piece "Friday the 13th", by Keith Tippet. The version uploaded has not any of those.

Lyrics:
Water hits the cold glasslike a swarm of hungry flies
your presence here is stronger
reaching her and I
tv shows landslide in north
south hosts a drain, a flood
but if you look closer
the water looks just like blood
all of a sudden there is no sound
she´s behind me she´s not
that ethereal voice, her face
that cold voice, you´re around
now i see i see no more
just noise and no soothing
I am here to take your hand...
(the real you is looming)

i'm totally digging this. could definitely use a little more volume on the vocal. i know it's supposed to sound creepy and whispery, but i don't think you'd lose that with a little boost.
from what i *can* hear, it sounds like a good vocal performance. a bit of a ben gibbard quality. repost with louder vocals. i think everything else is perfect. (well, maybe a hint more on the guitars too.) thanks for sharing!

was not what i really had in mind when I did it...but I agree that the lyrics are surely creepy (they´re about a ghost visiting someone, possessing someone that is close to its "victim"), but they were written months and months after the music...musically, at least, I was thinking about my lack of sleep.
In a matter of months I discovered slowdive and their album "Pygmalion" I think It has the feel of that album, albeit a little more tormented and with less "echo".
I would try to raise the vocal volume but I would have to sing it again because I don´t have a separate vocal track
thanks for stopping by!

this is cool, sounds better than your previous version (which I am proud to have had on my itunes for like 2 years now). you know I am a huge fan, and i know that a lot of folks often don't get your sound, but I do and I love it. totally original. excellent.

Michael, I thought I also asked you to sing on this one ( no big news) hehehehe.
Your support is one of the main reasons I keep on trying...

for listening and commenting.

I agree the vocals could come up without losing the creepy feel. Otherwise, this really hits the mark - I'm totally creeped out! Very cool YRP

I don´t have your skill and your talent, so I have to fake a little...it works sometimes.
thank you

comment was a cool interpretation of those sounds.
"Delicate warm shivers"
That was great!Thank you!

If you have lyrics then you should communicate them. Definitely try singing a new track. It is worth a try.
I wasn't creeped out but I was straining to hear what you had to say. I understand an altered state and a hyper sensitivity because of sleep deprivation. You don't need drugs to hallucinate. Just miss sleep. You craft imaginative pieces. Obrigado.
