@timmieschaap can't say i love all the artists or that it gels song to song, but reads well which is the greatest part of poetry 😛

 

@LionScale quality song choices! pretty emotional poem XD

@PSeven outstanding song selection! not sure what the poem is supposed to mean though?

 

@MartinStoichkov nice little meta-commentary, sweet cover art, fabulous choices - feels like a great soundtrack to inspire creativity

 

could you explain the poem? 

@crematedman LOL, yeah, wasn't my original intention but I guess it did get pretty sad. I just really want to win and I figured some raw emotion would get my poem noticed XD

@crescentr3n poetic choices and killer songs, well done ^_^

 

@Jazzwhatever quality - very easy to listen to (suddenly takes a turn for the epic for a song with M83)! could easily be song lyrics, couple of songs where the meaning is ambiguous - but that's poetry for you. beautiful closing track too.

 

who is this silver, space lady the poem describes? 😮

 

 

@LionScale well you achieved that XD

@crematedman It's just a poem, i tried to make some lines rhyme and make it sound a bit mysterious. I really don''t know who the silver lady is, maybe a 'perfect' fantasy woman. But the meaning is different for eveyone. That's the fun and beauty of poetry. 

 

Just like Georgia could mean anything, anyone.

@Soundofus Is that a political poem? 🙂

Topical 😊
I loved the Arctic Monkeys dropping in there!

Super cinematic! Loved to see unknown mortal orchestra, villagers, Matt Corby, Sufjan Stevens, Portugal the man, Patrick Watson among others ❤️

So true! Well you succeeded, very rhythmic and mysterious.
