Story behind the song
A Glimpse at life over the edge of a Cliff... Lyrics/vocals made by the great vocalist Liana Steer. The lyrics explains it´s title ....the ending of a difficult period in my life... The story is about the battle of feeling at the edge,contemplating choices of life & death. The story ends on a happy note of realisation of lifes desire and the beauty around us.The world truly is a wonderland...under the sea there is no war. This version I uploaded July 14 2007 is remastered from the old mp3-file since I lost the original project files in a computer crash. Remastering was done by Jim Miller at www.FixThatMix.com
Lyrics
Glimpse Of Wonderland (Liana Steer) ©2004 Intro....spoken... Like an awakening I needed to step out of life Before I could step back in? I stood at the edge of the cliff My eyes searching the skyline I took a deep breath in and spread my arms to the winds My heart was pounding Deep in its cavity I felt a strange weakness taking over me As my body rocked closer to edge I closed my eyes, Said my goodbyes and dove from the ledge I felt my body spiraling like a rocket down In one reflective moment I thought that I might drown I felt the air escape my lungs choking in my throat surging out towards my lips As vanquished thoughts awoke No time for flashbacks No time for regret The deepest fear came over me Unknown until its met I hit the surface of the water Like cold hard steel And I wondered in that instant, Just What was real Shattered water rushed over my limbs Felt the sea engulfing me The coolness of the water The expanse of the sea Images flashed like glitter I was swept into a scene I opened up my eyes, To a Technicolor dream I saw my glimpse of wonderland I saw my glimpse of wonderland I was in chamber A kaleidoscope on the reef With one reflective instinct It drove away my grief My body floated aimlessly, So I kicked with all my might With all the fury of a need to be A new desire for life I chased the air towards the light gasping for life I felt rebirth in that moment I knew everything would be alright. My wonderland....... I had my glimpse of wonderland I saw life beyond the shore I had my glimpse of wonderland And I´m coming back for more (©2004)

A beautiful track! Everything sounded great, save a few places in the mix where I think the vocals and instrumental sounded a bit too distinct from one another. There isn't a uniformed song structure, so I give the melody highest of marks, as well as the vocalist who'd caught my ear. Production would've also received highest of marks, especially for the attractive drum pattern that at times danced wonderfully with the vocalist at an upbeat tempo, had I felt the mix was perfect. Lyrics I'm sure were superb; but I was more entranced with the overall melody, and vocal tone and nuances that I confess I wasn't really paying much attention to the lyrics. :p lol Simply a terrific track. :)
