Description
I'm delighted to offer this first collaboration between Omar (Yohmar (MJ) YosL (iC)) and myself. I've admired his work for sometime and he was kind enough to send me a scintillating dance track to work with. The result is "Phantom Lover" - the story of a man seeking his lost love in a veritable hall of time and place mirrors. He got done!!!

We hope you enjoy it.

Omar (Yohmar): Music
Daniel (Luna Trick): Vocals/Lyrics & some added Cello

Lyrics
Phantom Lover (Lyrics by Luna Trick)

My head's full of holes and my muscles burn
I'm in an empty room where the blinds don't turn
There's no sun

I see body prints on the fireside mat
A pile of strewn clothes and a nervous cat
I got done

Memory don't leave me
Memory release me

Memory don't leave me
Memory release me

No lover here but I can taste the last kiss
What's it gonna take to make sense out of this
I'm all spun

I Should run for the fence while there's still time
But I'm stuck in this phase of your pantomime
I got done

Memory don't leave me
Memory release me

Memory don't squeeze me
Memory don't tease me

Memory don't leave me
Memory release me

I swear it was you when the fire burned low
Body full of fire and eyes all aglow
You're no fun

I'm tearing at the space where you used to be
Dragging back the seconds of my memory
I got done

You're my phantom lover
I ain't got no other
One

You're my phantom lover
I ain't got no other
One

Memory release me
Memory don't leave me

Memory don't tease me
Memory don't squeeze me

Memory release me
Memory don't leave me

Gotta break down the door and put things right
But how to catch a ghost in the cold dark night?
It's all wrong

I gotta find a way back to yesterday
There's a half of my shadow that's missing today
I got done.

You're my phantom lover
I ain't got no other
One

You're my phantom lover
I ain't got no other
One

Memory
Memory

You're my phantom lover

This is way cool
Very nice effort. Sounds quite professional. All aspects are quite good. Nice twist of funk, too.

Great job,

Another killer collab
Man I wish I had your way with words - takes me a year to work up a few lines. Very cool track. Nice cello adds and the backing kicks it really nice.

You know
You know how there are chick flicks? I think this is like a chick flick, but is a song. In other words, chicks are going to flock to it, like they do to a chick flick. And, that's a compliment. Nice cello playing and recording of it.

I've been accused of liking 'chick flicks' on more than one occasion!

Ian Dury comes to mind for some reason
The collab king turns in yet another great performance and the music is really something else :-)

Splendid work :-)

Cool Luna!!!
I don't think I've come over to hear your music before. It was a great treat! Ramonaji spoke to me about you and your amazing vocals. Nice vox effects and a killer groove. Everything flows nicely in this track. Little elements swimming around to keep things interesting and properly placed. Loved it! Now I need to go check out more of your tunes! You guys did an awesome job! Congrats!

Riding the wave
I mean this in the most positive way, but this sounds totally current, sophisticated and marketable. Really great all the way around. The light touch of everything reminds me a Sade a bit, but with more current electronics stylings. Nice.

A compliment indeed...
I've never had a Sade comparison but I think she's great!

perfect
everybody else has said it but your vocals style and phrasing is perfect on this one. I really dig the 80's new wave vibe. Very cool tune dude.
