Okay, I have to confess, there are very few lyrics written for this song. Well, there are two (words) and that’s a start.

It was really challenging this week to find a way to etch in the singing parts with no real lyrical material to work from. Was I glad when I ran into the lady who sang the original Star Trek theme? You bet. She agreed to lay down some wordless vocals and she gives the track that Venusian plantation hymn sort of quality that’s been so popular with the kids this year. Whew.

Seriously though, ‘finishing’ the demo forced me to really think about the vocal melody in a new way and although the results were fairly obvious from the existing material, I’m excited to fill in the blanks with words and their syllables and see how that changes things.

I had a great time participating in “Works in Progress Month”. Feeling the emotions, getting really frustrated, not throwing my sitar against the wall - it was all worth it. Thanks for listening.
