so, i'm listeining tosome new music that was introduced to me via facebook..... the artist asked me what i thoguht of the music.. iw arned him it woudlbe a long email and alsed him to forgive my many typos (i am quite proud actually, i think i have very few spellign wrror...pleantly of grammer erros thos)
His name is Fox Elipsus Indigo and u can listen to his music here
here what i sent..... and i think it is too much, honestly i cldve kept it short... i mean seriosuly! sheesh! i overcomplicate things....
"well i have not gotten thru all the music yet ;-) but this email wont be short
and please excuse any typos, i am NOTORIOUS amongst my friends for my typos....spell check is foreign to me ;-)
i am impressed, entranced, hooked, and pleasantly surprised
i have a question, the guitar solo i hear at the beginning of the song "monuments" do u play that or was that somebody else? i loved it
i must say, whether it is the lyrics or the music alone they do touch a person!
so far i like the variety.
a lot of the songs i have heard so far have bean about love. and some have even been about loss. and do those ever touch me deeply! when u sing of love - lost, gained, found- it seems like it is true feelings and it is not like some of the commercialised stuff you hear these days which seems to focus on what sounds good and not what has meaning. your music sounds good,AND has meaning. the music really does touch me.
i think that you really are meeting your vision of following in the likes of "the great ones" :)
to give you some specific examples of what i thought:
"killing in the name of currency"~ All i can say is the message it carries forth is a strong one.
"i could go with you"~ made me cry. it was so soulful, terribly sad. made me think of all the loves I'd lost and wished i could have stayed and it was like a prayer to those old loves. I'm not sure if that was your intention. it was heart breaking to hear. definitely one of my favourites.
"monuments"~ this one song and a few others had unanswered questions as a theme. this is another part to your music that i enjoy. it inspires thought, invokes questions and wonder. i like this. your music isn't brainlessness. LOL
now to be honest tho there is one song that i dd not like "momentum of the underground" the lyrics were OK but the music itself was too much like other dance music I've heard... hey, i can't like everything can I? LOL :) but to be truthful i have loved everything else so far and have recommended it to many of my friends.
i can honestly say you have a wide variety of music so far and again i am loving that.
your songs do not sound like a lot of the commercialised stuff that is out there these days . it is honest. soulful, touching, and genuine.
and by the way... "the scientist" i heard done by "cold play" and to be honest.... i enjoy your version better. it just seems like your version was much more genuine. i liked how u took out a lot of the instruments and how this allowed a person to focus more on the lyrics and feeling to the song. and the same goes for "losing my religion" amazing covers! ;-)
thank you again for introducing me to you music. i must say that using facebook 9and myspace) to get your music out there is a great idea! i was impressed :) this is a perfect example of using social networking to ones business advantage without breaking trust or privacy policies (least i hope not, LOL)
anyways, on that note i shall depart. this email is far too long and i have some more music to listen to ;-)
Take Care,
signed with my real name and not cries alone or walks with wolves"
LOL, i amlost copy pasted my real name...LOL. oops ;-) sorry folks.
well i gtg. i really am listening to his music and am impressed, and addicted!!!!!
oh andi wrote him again
"PS: and the song "sumthing in your eyes" had the same impact as "i could go woth you.... wow....
the lyrics, the musics... i'm amazed."
and again
"PPS; i just heard "song for the terrorosits"
ok i am blown away .... this one song, is the ONE SONG that i feel should be listened to by as many ppl as possible. it is music like this that will change the world.
wow!"
oh and " PPPS; by the way, "fantasy" made me blush! roflol. i immediatly told my boyfriend he needed to listen to that song! i am awaiting his response LOL"
i know i need help.... i type waaaay too many stuff! LOL

But time, new love, and Jesus heal all wounds
