Three part harmony old fashioned gentle gospel style, with rhythm accompaniment (as they used to say). The lyrics are kind of about facing up to death - sorry about that (no I'm not dying).

Artist picture
This is a one-man studio-based outfit which has two streams. One is to produce songs, with vocals, in a fairly conventional format, that you might expect a "real" band to play. The other is to produce instrumentals with experimental electronic sounds, the stranger the better, but hopefully still appealing. I love that virtual world full of beauty and weirdness. Perhaps that's where I'll go when I die.

Story behind the song
As usual no particular motivation. I started to write these words and that was the subject matter that came out. I had an acapella group at the time and it was originally written for that.
Lyrics
Sometimes sitting on the side around the ghostly room I feel a soft caressing breath The gentle loving kiss of death Arising from from the tomb I don't believe I feel annoyed to have my thoughts diverted It's more like a power that I feel To be touched by something real That will not be averted Farewell, farewell Not heaven, no not hell Just the deep tones of the bell Listen with me And walking down the corridor where the sun shines on the dust I see the world through an open door And I don't go through there any more Because the world is lost Farewell etc
